Christian theology has been tempted for a long time by supersessionism considering the Church substituting the Jewish People. As the Christians have recognized in Jesus the messiah and so far the accomplishment of the promises, the Church would have become the place par excellence of the fulfillment of the promises.  Since Council Vatican II,  the theology of the catholic Church  has become aware of the unbrokenness of God's covenant with Israel : the call and the gifts of God are irrevocable. The Jewish People is still beloved by his God. Thus christian theology is involved in eliminating the tracks of replacement theory out of itself. This is the deep wish of the Holy See (see Document of 2015)..  Henceforth, theologians need to design a new framework to think about the place of the Jewish People in God's plans. How to articulate the accomplishment perspective with this new paradigm we are looking for ?  Meanwhile the renewal of christian theology may have an impact on how muslim theologians consider "abrogation". What shift christian theologians, working on islamology, may identify, at the crossway with the theology of the relation of the Church to the Jewish people? And how to articulate any concept of accomplishment with the theological priority of the relation of God to the elected People?
