2. Replacement Theology - The church completely replaces Israel. Live, Stock, and Barrel.
3. Separation Theology - Church is completely different entity then Israel, Also known as Dispensationalism.
4. Other | For Unity Theology, does one have to agree that some physical israel will be regrafted back in near the end times and that True Israel is made from the church and physical seed of Abraham?
My current understanding (although I haven't studied it in great length) is that True Israel is made up of All Types of People (Galatians 3:27-29), meaning the spiritual seed of Abraham (not physical). I don't really think I am saying any thing different than you though, just different words. But the physical israel being regrafted back in part, I don't know if I agree with. It is of my understanding that their regrafting takes places throughout the period we are in now. Who's view is this that I am espousing? And what view are you espousing? I forgot (Calvin, Ridderbos, Murray)? | 
I believe it is an ongoing regrafting of elect jews to the Church until Christ returns, not an endtimes revival.
