Yes, while the early church believed the Jewish people were God's chosen people, their understanding of this chosenness evolved. Initially, the Jewish people were seen as God's chosen nation, but with the advent of Christianity, many Christian denominations adopted the belief that the Church, made up of believers from all nations, had now become God's chosen people.

Elaboration:

Early Church Perspective:

The early church, including those Jewish Christians who were part of it, generally accepted the idea that God had chosen the Jewish people as His special nation, as described in the Old Testament.

Shift in Understanding:

Over time, particularly as Christianity spread to Gentiles (non-Jews), a shift occurred in how "chosen people" was understood. Many Christian denominations began to believe that the Church, comprised of believers from all nations, was the new chosen people, fulfilling God's plan.

Replacement Theology:

This shift is often associated with the concept of replacement theology, which suggests that the Church has replaced Israel as God's chosen people.

Different Interpretations:

While some Christian denominations believe in the replacement theology, others continue to affirm that the Jewish people remain God's chosen people, albeit in a way that does not exclude the Church.

Continuing Jewish Identity:

Even within Christianity, there are groups like Messianic Judaism who maintain a strong Jewish identity while also believing in Jesus as the Messiah.
