Are the Jews still God's chosen people
Are the Jews still God's Chosen people or have we taken over that name as God's chosen people, its known as Supersessionism. What is our Church's view on this??
Do we still accept them as God's chosen people or are we the new God's people.
I understand that they were God's chosen people but anymore??

short answer: the church is 'God's people', containing jews and gentiles, but God still has a special plan for israel as his promises never fail.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. - Galatians 3:28
Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. - Colossians 3:11
For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. - Romans 10:12
