I am so thankful that God has allowed gentiles to be part of His kingdom. Salvation is offered to all. Although Israel has rejected Jesus Christ, there are still some who believe and God has promised a blessing to His Chosen People, Israel. Some tink the Christian church has replaced Israel, but that is not what the Bible says. God will always love them. He made a covenant with them. Jesus said that salvation is of the Jews. Let us do what we can to support Israel and pray for them. Pray that they will see the truth, that Jesus is Messiah. Salvation is offered to all.
Romans 10:1-4
Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Romans 10:12-13
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “WHOEVER CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.”
Romans 11:5-6
Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
Romans 11:25-33
For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “THE DELIVERER WILL COME OUT OF ZION, AND HE WILL TURN AWAY UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB; FOR THIS IS MY COVENANT WITH THEM, WHEN I TAKE AWAY THEIR SINS.” Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all. Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!
Jesus came to this world to saved sinners. To save the Jews, to save the ‘uncircumcised.’ Grace is to all who will believe. But, God holds a special place in His heart for the descendants of Abraham. For Jacob. For Israel.
Revelation 7:1-4
After these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree. Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea, saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed:
The scripture goes on to say exactly how many will come out of each tribe of Israel. When Christ comes again, He will take us with Him. We will rule with Him. And the remnant will be sealed and protected by God, and be witnesses for God, and will have a special place with God. He is reaching out to each of us to be with Him. Answer His call. One day, we will all be there together, all of us who believe.
John 14:1-3
“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.”
Yes the Jews shall always have a favoured place in the heart of God. Those who do not believe in God and those who have chosen other gods still can hear the call from God. To them and to others in the world God is still calling. Today people are able to read the bible in several languages and should be able to find that now the can find Jesus or Jeshua as the way to God. Though they have to be very careful not to fall in the trap of the adversaries of God, who reproduce false teachings, like the trinity.
All Jews who want to follow Jesus should know when they look for a community that they should go to a group or church which only worships the One and Only True God, the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,Jeshua or Jesus and his disciples, Who is an Eternal All-knowing Eternal Spirit Being Who is One and not two or three.
