What if one of the most celebrated theological assumptions isn’t just a misread… but a moral rebrand?
In this episode, Sergio DeSoto puts replacement theology on the table as an honesty test. In real life, a man who abandons his own people isn’t faithful—he’s a sellout. So why do so many systems train believers to imagine God doing exactly that: cutting off Israel and crowning a replacement?
This isn’t a niche debate. It’s a psychology-of-belonging issue. You’ll hear how identity-based religious systems protect themselves through narrative control, gaslighting plain-text reading, straw-man arguments, scapegoating, and moral inversion that renames betrayal as “faithfulness.” Then Sergio anchors the covenant storyline in Jeremiah 31, Romans 9–11, Ephesians 2, and the New Testament’s warning against Gentile boasting.
You’ll also hear why this isn’t just theoretical: history shows what happens when churches confuse “order” with righteousness and let systems baptize betrayal—whether in America’s slavery era or in Europe under the Nazi shadow. The episode ends where it should: in Scripture, humility, and a call back to healthy community where shepherds serve and no pastor is allowed to replace the text.
