Contradict – To speak against, oppose.
God used this word in its various forms 3 times in Scripture: Once to Israel and the Body of Christ in the transition book of Acts; and twice to Israel’s Little Flock in their tribulation book of Hebrews.
The instance in Acts 13:44-52 is the exact moment that the Dispensation of Grace began; when God set Israel aside and went to all nations: Israel lost their preferred status. The going to all nations includes Israel as equals in regards to redemption and salvation.
At the end of the Dispensation of Grace, Israel will be returned to preferred status. The gentiles will be returned to their set-aside status in regards to redemption and salvation: their access to God will be through Israel.
The perversion of Christianity’s false doctrine is the claim that Israel’s promises now belong to them (the Christians) and God is finished with Israel. That claim is false. According to Rightly Divided Scripture, Israel’s promises still belong to Israel only. At the end of the Dispensation of Grace, Israel will be restored, with all of their promises, under their New Covenant that does not include any gentiles.
