Israel is the elect of God. The elect of God is Israel. Under Moses, Israel was the elect among the Jews. Today, Israel is the elect among the professing church, made up of believing Jews and the grafted in gentiles (like me). Those circumcised in heart, these are the elect of God. Those who are in Christ Jesus, these are Israel. And the day will come when many Jews will be grafted back in. But there is one tree, one Israel, one elect of God, one Christ, and one God. One Israel. Abraham's true seed is not of flesh, but of faith. The Jew first, and also the gentile. These are Abraham's children - those who are in the faith. It's always been this way. Before the church age, they were looking ahead to Christ by faith, and today, we also look to Christ by faith.

At the beginning good answer. God doesn't need big numbers to serve him. As with the Old, so with the New. You're always have hardheaded people. Some listen to the preacher, some don't. Jesus told the Jew we piped to you, but you would not dance, we mourned, but you would not cry. God did all he could, then he came himself. In the body of flesh. God don't need big numbers. Just someone whose willing and obedient.

Hebrews 1:10-12 And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands; they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment, like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end.” 2 Peter 3:10-12 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! This end of the world is not merely a psychological event as distinguished from a really physical one, for the cosmos itself is psychological. There is, ultimately, no distinction between the psychological and the physical. When enlightenment is accomplished, the Son of Man truly arrives and the world really comes to an end. Isaiah 51:6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment, and they who dwell in it will die in like manner; but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will never be dismayed. Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. Isaiah 34:4 All the host of heaven shall rot away, and the skies roll up like a scroll. All their host shall fall, as leaves fall from the vine, like leaves falling from the fig tree. Psalm 102:25-26 Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, Revelation 6:12-14 When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. John 3:15-16 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 10:27-29 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. Isaiah 51:8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool; but my righteousness will be forever, and my salvation to all generations.” Revelation 20:11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. Isaiah 13:13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place, at the wrath of the Lord of hosts in the day of his fierce anger. Psalm 8:3-4 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? Isaiah 40:26 Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these? He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name, by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing. Deuteronomy 4:19 And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven. RESURRECTION: BEYOND THE END The resurrection must always be thought of in the present. "I am the resurrection," says Jesus. Only mythical license allows projection into the past or future. Other events may have happened, but the resurrection is now. Christ emerges from the grave as the Now man, as that which makes all things possible, as the light of the world. The Risen One is living witness to the "I am" which emerges when our grip upon the old man is released. This is no mere sign or promise of life after death and the grave. The resurrection is not after anything. The resurrection is now; it is the hub upon which the circle of time turns. Ego time is past and future. The ego wants to know what will happen next. The resurrection is not next, for the resurrection does not occur. The resurrection is. John 11:25-26: "Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?'"

Or have you not payed attention to Jesus giving His people their promised land back after 1800 years.

Isaiah 65 King James Version 65 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. 2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts; 3 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; 4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels; 5 Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day. 6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom, 7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom. 8 Thus saith the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all. 9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. 10 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me. 11 But ye are they that forsake the Lord, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number. 12 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not. 13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: 14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit. 15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name: 16 That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes. 17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. 18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. 19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. 20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed. 21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. 22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. 23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them. 24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. 25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.

Who Is the Son of Man? "The Higher Mysteries of Thy Fame" From: Christian Truth: Volume 6 "The people answered Him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth forever: and how sayest Thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?" John 12:34. What a question for a poor sinner to essay to answer! Tread softly here, 0 my soul, and let it be with unshod feet, for thou art on very holy ground. "No man knoweth the Son, but the Father"; therefore guard thy words with jealous care. And, when thou hast said thy last syllable, think not that in knowledge thou art more than a child standing ankle deep in the great sea, and whose eyes behold but a little of those mighty waters that roll away and wash the shores of many a far-off land. For there are things revealed in the Scriptures which, in their fullness, no creature can comprehend. How should he, seeing they are infinite? And the receiving of them necessarily involves the subjection of the mind to God, against which the proud mind of man rebels; and in that rebellion lies the root of nine-tenths of the infidelity of the day. What an immense, nay, what an awful loss, were the truth of God to be trimmed and shaven down until the mind of man was able to measure to an inch, and weigh to an ounce, all that God has been pleased to reveal! It must shrink and shrivel up exceedingly before that could ever be. To the dissenting Jews, the Son of man, there standing in their midst, was no more than the carpenter's son. Some might hold Him for a prophet, and others regard Him as "a man sent from God," whose credentials were sufficiently attested by the miracles which He wrought. And the thoughts of thousands of so-called Christians in this day rise no higher than that, if indeed as high. Christians they are not, save in name; for it is of the very essence of the Christian faith that this Son of man was God manifest in flesh (1 Tim. 3:16). In Him dwelt, and dwells, all the fullness of the Godhead bodily (Col. 2:9). Whosoever he be who confesses not that, is no Christian at all. How unspeakably precious is this! "God has been manifested in flesh" (J.N.D. Trans.). How? When? In the Person of the Son of man. God has come nigh to us. God has spoken to us, not through the prophets as in olden times, but He Himself has spoken; He has been here. We gaze upon the Son of man, we listen to His words, and we behold God manifest in flesh. He who would have been forever unknown and unknowable, save as creation revealed Him, and the prophets made Him known, has been manifested in flesh. For the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth (John 1:14). Finite we are, and how sensible of this we become when dealing with that which is infinite and eternal. Who can go back to "the beginning" of John 1:1? It is easy to think of the beginning of creation, easy to conceive a time when created things were not, when you might have searched the boundless fields of space for sun, moon, and stars, and searched for them in vain. Nor is it impossible to comprehend a time when God in the fullness of the Trinity dwelt alone in sublime solitude-the all-sufficient, self-existent One. But let your thoughts explore those remote recesses of eternity until, weary of wing, they falter and stop and can go no further, then this Son of man was-not indeed as Son of man, but as the eternal Word. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Eternal existence, distinctness of being, and Godhead are thus ascribed to Him who became flesh and tabernacled among us-Son of man, Son of God, the Christ, "who is over all, God blessed forever" (Rom. 9:5). In a magnificent passage in Colossians 1 The Holy Spirit declares the creatorial glories of Him who for the glory of God and our blessing became Son of man. "For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: and He is before all things, and by Him all things consist" (subsist). And if the same Spirit speaks in simpler strains through John the Apostle, yet they have a beauty all their own, and an emphasis to which nothing could add force. "All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made." John 1:3. Thus the material universe and all created intelligences in it are the creatures of His hand-He the Maker of all and the Sustainer of all, and all of them formed for His glory, and to sound forth His praise. And we must guard with no less jealous care the true and sinless humanity of Him of whom we speak. A real Man was He who suffered hunger (Matt. 4:2) and thirst (John 4:7), who grew weary (John 4:6) and wept (John 11:35) and prayed (Luke 9:28), and who never used the attributes of deity, which were ever His, to shelter Himself from the consequences of the position which He in profound grace had taken up. "Being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." Phil. 2:8. If obedience to God, and dependence on Him, should ever mark men, He, having become man, was always under all circumstances obedient and dependent. When tested in the wilderness He repelled every attack of Satan by the Word of God (Luke 4), thus honoring those ancient scriptures which men nowadays in their presumptuous daring treat with such ignorant disdain. In all this He is our great Exemplar. Oh! how perfect were His ways here below! How full of moral beauty! What a sight for angels to behold (1 Tim. 3:16), and for the eye of God the Father to rest upon! Pause here, my soul, and wonder and worship. It is a fathomless mystery, this union in one blessed Person of God and man! Can we explain it? Can we comprehend it? Never! It were easier far to pour the ocean into a tiny shell, or to bind leviathan with a straw. But the heart taught of God receives it, and cherishes it as one of the most sacred mysteries of our most holy faith. "His glory-not only God's Son- In manhood He had His full part- And the union of both joined in one Form the fountain of love in His heart." And remember, O my soul, that this great mystery is no suited subject either for cold and curious speculation, or heated and acrimonious debate. If others embark thereon, refuse thou to follow them. Weary not thyself in seeking to comprehend the incomprehensible, or to compass that which cannot be compassed by any creature; but cultivate a lowly, reverent spirit that receives with meekness what God has been pleased to make known in the Scriptures of truth; so shalt thou be built up and blessed. "The higher mysteries of Thy fame The creature's grasp transcend; The Father only Thy blest name Of Son can comprehend. Worthy, O Lamb of God, art Thou That every knee to Thee should bow."

[@V_George]

Exactly.

[@SpotterVideo]

The ultimate fulfillment of Israel is found in Matthew 1:1, as confirmed by Paul in Galatians 3:16. He is the King of Israel in John 1:49. He is the Head, and we are His Body. You cannot separate the Body of Israel's King from the King of Israel. Many are ignoring the faithful "remnant" of Israelites in Romans 11:1-5. Many are ignoring the fulfillment of the New Covenant found in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 12:18-24. We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24. Most of those who make the accusation of "Replacement Theology" are those promoting the Two Peoples of God doctrine of modern Dispensational Theology, which is less than 200 years old. The doctrine was brought to the U.S. by John Nelson Darby about the time of the Civil War. Some of the many errors of the doctrine are revealed below. Who is really teaching “Replacement Theology” ? (Did God fulfill His promises to the Jewish people at Calvary? Matthew 26:28, John 19:30) The advocates of modern Dispensational Theology often accuse others of promoting “Replacement Theology”, or some may even say “Antisemitism”. What does the Bible say about their accusations? 1. Who is replacing Christ as the seed of Abraham through which all the families of the Earth would be blessed in Genesis 12:3, with Abraham’s modern descendants? (See Galatians 3:8) 2. Who is replacing the one people of God in John 10:16, with two peoples of God ? 3. Who is replacing the one seed (Christ) in Galatians 3:16, with the many seeds? 4. Who is replacing the children of the promise in Romans 9:8, with the children of the flesh? 5. Who is replacing the faithful “remnant” of Israelites in Romans 11:1-5, with the Baal worshipers? 6. Who is replacing the word "so" in Romans 11:26, with the word "then"? 7. Who is attempting to replace the Church made up of all races of people, with one made up only of Gentiles? Why did Peter address the crowd as “all the house of Israel” in Acts 2:36, when about 3,000 Israelites accepted Christ on the Day of Pentecost? 8. Based on Hebrews 9:15, the New Covenant cannot be separated from the Messiah’s death. Is the covenant in Daniel 9:27 connected to the Messiah’s death in Daniel 9:26. Is the covenant with the “many” in Daniel 9:27 the same covenant with the “many” in Matthew 26:28? If it is, some have replaced the New Covenant in Daniel 9:27 with a future covenant made by an antichrist not found in Daniel chapter 9. (See the 1599 Geneva Bible used by the Pilgrims.) 9. Those promoting the Two Peoples of God doctrine of Dispensational Theology often accuse others of teaching “Replacement Theology”, but are they the masters of it? Are they promoting a form of Dual Covenant Theology based on race? (See “genealogies” in Titus 3:9) Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis? 10. Watch the KZbin video “Genesis of Dispensational Theology” to see the origin of this man-made doctrine, which is less than 200 years old. It was brought to the United States about the time of the Civil War by John Nelson Darby. The doctrine was later incorporated into the notes of the Scofield Reference Bible, and then spread through much of the modern Church. Dallas Theological Seminary in Dallas Texas was created in part to promote John Darby’s Two Peoples of God doctrine of Dispensational Theology. Lewis Sperry Chafer, the first president of Dallas Theological, had the following to say about the difference between Israel and the Church: “The dispensationalist believes that throughout the ages God is pursuing two distinct purposes: one related to the earth with earthly people and earthly objectives involved which is Judaism; while the other is related to heaven with heavenly people and heavenly objectives involved, which is Christianity.” Lewis Sperry Chafer, Dispensationalism (Dallas, Seminary Press, 1936), p. 107. Chafer states that, ‘Israel is an eternal nation, heir to an eternal land, with an eternal kingdom, on which David rules from an eternal throne,’ that is, on earth and distinct from the church who will be in heaven.” Lewis Sperry Chafer. Systematic Theology. 1975. Vol. IV. pp. 315-323. John Walvoord, another prominent voice of Dallas Theological stated… "...it is an article of normative dispensational belief that the boundaries of the land promised to Abraham and his descendants from the Nile to the Euphrates will be literally instituted and that Jesus Christ will return to a literal and theocratic Jewish kingdom centred on a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. In such a scheme the Church on earth is relegated to the status of a parenthesis.” John F. Walvoord, The Rapture Question.1979, p. 25 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are there two peoples of God in John 10:16? (See also 1 John 2:22-23, 2 John 1:7-11.) What is the land promise to the Old Testament Saints in Hebrews 11:15-16? Based on 2 Peter 3:10-13, is this earth “eternal”? Will it be replaced by a new earth? Based on Acts 2:36, and Romans 9:6-8, and Romans 11:1-5, and Hebrews 12:22-24, and James 1:1-3, can faithful Israel and the Church be separated into two different groups? Who is the New Covenant promised to in Jeremiah 31:31-34, and Hebrews 8:6-13? Will modern Orthodox Jews ever be saved outside of the New Covenant Church?

​@@SpotterVideoThat was one of the best rebuttals I have seen in a long time. This new idea brought in by Darby is confusing the whole church. One thing Dr Brown never mentions is that Judaism at its root and foundation is anti-christ in nature. This will never change. Israel wants to one day subject Christians to them. Their religion calls for it. They are the enemies of Christ. It does not bode well for Christians or the world at large. We are to watch and be not deceived.

Those who cannot differentiate between spiritual Israel and physical Israel cannot comprehend this

[@thundershadow]

There are two ways of looking at it. Both correct. One way is more correct than the other. You can as scripture says it... look at it as being grafted in. In this case no Israel was not replaced but was joined by the wild stem. However, this view was furthered in scripture by the explanation that the Gentiles were included to move the Jews to Jealousy. In that case yes Israel was removed but not permanently seeing as the Apostle reasoned they could (would be) grafted back in. And then there is the consideration that the new way of Christ is to become the way of both Jew and Gentile, both bond and free, both male and female. This is the more correct way to look at it. Jesus is the kinsman redeemer of both the Jews and the Gentiles because of the same faith in him.

Though they were fascinated by what he had made, they were unable to recognize the maker of everything. 2Instead, they thought that all these things-fire or wind or quickly moving air or a constellation of stars or rippling water or the sky’s bright lights that govern the world-were all gods. 3They should have known that all these things-which they took to be gods and delighted in-were much less beautiful than the one who rules them all. The creator of beauty itself created them. 4Those who fear the power and might of created things should know how much more powerful than these things is the one who fashioned them. 5These people could have perceived something of the one who created all things as they thought about the power and beauty of the things that were created. 6It is for this reason that they’re not without guilt. Yet perhaps we shouldn’t blame them too much. They may have gone astray while they were looking for God, wanting to find him. 7They spend a lot of time exploring his works. Something about their appearance leads them to wonder, for the things that they see are indeed wonderful. 8Even so, these persons aren’t excused. 9After all, if they were indeed able to know so much that they could speculate about space and time, how is it that they weren’t able to discover the ruler of space and time more quickly? 10How much more miserable, though, are those people who put their trust in things that are dead? These people call gods the works of human hands, objects of gold and silver that artisans practice on, artistic representations of animals, even worthless stones carved by someone long ago. 11Imagine this. A woodcutter with some skill cuts down a pliable shrub. He carefully strips the outside covering of the plant and then, because he has some skill, shapes it into a tool for daily use. 12Afterward he picks up the leftover bark that he had stripped away and uses it to cook a meal for himself. He eats his fill and 13then picks up one of the leftover pieces of wood, one that wasn’t good for anything, a crooked hard piece with broken ends where the branches had been. Having nothing else to do, he takes this piece of wood and starts carving. By a process of trial and error, he’s finally able to give it a human shape, 14or he fashions it into something that vaguely resembles some miserable creature. He covers it with red paint, giving it a rosy hue where the creature’s flesh is supposed to be. He covers over every flaw in the wood. 15Finally, he makes a perfect little shrine for it and fastens the shrine securely to the wall with a nail 16so that it doesn’t fall down. He knows full well that it can’t do anything for itself. After all, it’s only an image, and it requires help. 17In time he begins to pray to it: for his possessions, for his marriage, for his children. He’s not ashamed to talk to this lifeless object. In fact, he begins to ask this fragile little creation to provide him with good health. 18He begins to pray for his life to this lifeless object. He cries out for help to this thing that has no experience at all. He prays about a journey to a thing that can’t even take a single step. 19He asks it for wealth, for profit in his work, and for success in all he sets his hands to do-all this from something whose hands are powerless to do anything.

4. (17-18) A promise of judgment upon all these abominations. And He said to me, “Have you seen this, O son of man? Is it a trivial thing to the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here? For they have filled the land with violence; then they have returned to provoke Me to anger. Indeed they put the branch to their nose. Therefore I also will act in fury. My eye will not spare nor will I have pity; and though they cry in My ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.” a. Is it a trivial thing to the house of Judah to commit the abominations: In his vision of the temple, Ezekiel saw a terrible variety of idolatries and abominations. The leaders and people of Jerusalem regarded it all as a trivial thing; God did not. b. For they have filled the land with violence: These were not only religious or spiritual sins. Their rejection of Yahweh and His true worship led to a breakdown in the social order. i. “The inhabitants of Judah were not content to provoke the Lord with their abominations. They had also filled the land with ‘violence,’ i.e., social chaos and injustice.” (Smith) c. Indeed they put the branch to their nose: This is an unusual statement, used only here in the Old Testament. It was some obscure expression of contempt for God. i. “The phrase ‘put the branch to their nose’ is obscure. Jewish commentators understood it to refer to some revolting and wicked rite. If it was a ritual act in an idolatrous cult, then it is grave indeed. But no such ritual act is known among Semitic peoples. Some take it to be a gesture of contempt toward God.” (Feinberg) ii. “‘Sticking the branch to the nose’ may simply describe an insulting physical gesture, here employed euphemistically to express how Yahweh feels about the way his subjects have treated him.” (Block) iii. Wright had another idea: “The branch held to the nose may have been in imitation of the Egyptian ankh, a symbol of life, which is shown in carvings as held to the nose, or it may have been connected with plants sacred to Tammuz or some other god.” iv. Vawter and Hoppe argue that the text has been corrupted and should read, “A branch in My nose.” “All that the Lord is saying is that in place of the pleasing odor of honest sacrificial worship (Leviticus 1:9, etc.), what God is receiving from the Israelites comes as a stench in God’s nostrils.” d. My eye will not spare nor will I have pity: Because of the great idolatries and sins of Jerusalem, and that the people regarded it all as a trivial thing, God’s judgment was assured, and could not be turned back. i. “Because of this utter corruption of the people, Jehovah would proceed in judgment, in spite of all the loud crying of the people.” (Morgan) ii. “Yahweh hereby affirms that from now on his ears are closed to all pleas for mercy…. He will not allow his heart to overrule his head.” (Block)

Isaiah 44:9-20 9 How foolish are those who manufacture idols. These prized objects are really worthless. The people who worship idols don’t know this, so they are all put to shame. 10 Who but a fool would make his own god- an idol that cannot help him one bit? 11 All who worship idols will be disgraced along with all these craftsmen-mere humans- who claim they can make a god. They may all stand together, but they will stand in terror and shame. 12 The blacksmith stands at his forge to make a sharp tool, pounding and shaping it with all his might. His work makes him hungry and weak. It makes him thirsty and faint. 13 Then the wood-carver measures a block of wood and draws a pattern on it. He works with chisel and plane and carves it into a human figure. He gives it human beauty and puts it in a little shrine. 14 He cuts down cedars; he selects the cypress and the oak; he plants the pine in the forest to be nourished by the rain. 15 Then he uses part of the wood to make a fire. With it he warms himself and bakes his bread. Then-yes, it’s true-he takes the rest of it and makes himself a god to worship! He makes an idol and bows down in front of it! 16 He burns part of the tree to roast his meat and to keep himself warm. He says, “Ah, that fire feels good.” 17 Then he takes what’s left and makes his god: a carved idol! He falls down in front of it, worshiping and praying to it. “Rescue me!” he says. “You are my god!” 18 Such stupidity and ignorance! Their eyes are closed, and they cannot see. Their minds are shut, and they cannot think. 19 The person who made the idol never stops to reflect, “Why, it’s just a block of wood! I burned half of it for heat and used it to bake my bread and roast my meat. How can the rest of it be a god? Should I bow down to worship a piece of wood?” 20 The poor, deluded fool feeds on ashes. He trusts something that can’t help him at all. Yet he cannot bring himself to ask, “Is this idol that I’m holding in my hand a lie?” ISAIAH 44 In this chapter the Lord comforts his people with the promise of the effusion of his Spirit, and the blessings of his grace upon them; the consequence of which would be fruitfulness in them, and the conversion of others, who should profess themselves the Lord's people, Isa 44:1-5, he proves his deity in opposition to all false gods from his eternity, omniscience, and foretelling future events, Isa 44:6-8, exposes the stupidity of idol makers and the worshippers of them, Isa 44:9-20, makes gracious promises of the remembrance of his people, the remission of their sins, and their redemption by Christ, Isa 44:21-23, of which redemption from Babylon was a type; and of that assurance is given, from the Lord's creating all things by his power; from his frustrating and infatuating diviners and wise men; from his fulfilling his predictions delivered by his prophets; and from his mentioning by name the instrument of their redemption, Cyrus, Isa 44:24-28, which makes way for a particular prophecy concerning him in the next chapter.

Israel had armies in the Old Testament and the Temple of Jerusalem had soldiers who mistreated Christ and the Disciples, and Israel has an army today, it is not correct to accuse the Catholic Church (the true one founded by Christ) for some bad actions or sins of some people of a certain time, because in that case Israel also lacks all legitimacy before God. And let us not forget that during the first centuries of the Christian Era some influential Jews accused and denounced the Christians before the Roman authorities inciting persecution. Let's not forget: "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her" John 8:7, and "Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof".

Isaiah 66 King James Version 66 Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest? 2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. 3 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. 4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not. 5 Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed. 6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompence to his enemies. 7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. 8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. 9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God. 10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: 11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. 12 For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees. 13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 14 And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies. 15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many. 17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord. 18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. 19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles. 20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord. 21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord. 22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord. 24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

New Covenant Whole Gospel: Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him. He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth. Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by husband unto them, saith the LORD: Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis? Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart. Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead!

3. (15-16) Priests worshipping the sun. Then He said to me, “Have you seen this, O son of man? Turn again, you will see greater abominations than these.” So He brought me into the inner court of the LORD’s house; and there, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east, and they were worshiping the sun toward the east. a. You will see greater abominations than these: God continually promised Ezekiel that he would see greater and greater abominations. This time, his vision would display them in the inner court of the LORD’s house. i. “The idolatry of the seventy elders was hidden in the temple, but these men practiced their idolatry openly!” (Wiersbe) b. About twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple…and they were worshipping the sun toward the east: These men stood where the priests would normally stand to bless the people. Yet, with the temple behind them and the altar before them (their faces toward the east), they were worshipping the sun toward the east. They didn’t worship Yahweh, even at His own temple - they worshipped the sun, as the other pagan nations did. i. The number and the location of these men make it likely (though not certain) they were priests. “If they were priests perhaps the number is twenty-five because there was a representative of each of the twenty-four courses of the priests plus the high priest (cf. 1 Chron 23).” (Alexander) ii. “These worshippers showed their contempt for God by standing in such a way that they had their backs to the Temple while they reverenced the sun (cf. 2 Kings 23:5,11), worshipping the creature rather than the Creator (Rom. 1:25).” (Wright) iii. Block on the sun cult in Israel: “According to 2 Kings 21:5 it appears to have gained royal sponsorship during the reign of Manasseh, who built altars for the entire host of heaven in the courts of the temple. From 2 Kings 23:11-12 one may also infer that the horses and chariots of the sun at the entrance of the temple that Josiah demolished had also been erected by Manasseh.”

Credit where credit is due. You expressed this issue well. I stand firm in my belief as a Jew that Yeshua WAS NOT the Messiah. Yet Christianity was born out of a Jewish CONCEPT and thus must fulfill God's Will. Killing Jews (Spanish inquisition) is not very loving. Like the raven that was sent by Noah to see if there was dry land but the raven went to and fro over the water. This is Christianity. It spread the stories of the Torah all over the earth but it still cannot stand on its own feet because like the Hebrew word for falsehood, sheker/שקר, it falls over. Truth/אמת, all the letters have a 2 foot foundation.

A. Ezekiel goes to Jerusalem in a vision. 1. (1) Ezekiel, the elders, and the hand of the LORD. And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I sat in my house with the elders of Judah sitting before me, that the hand of the Lord GOD fell upon me there. a. In the sixth year, in the sixth month: Ezekiel 1:2 began a series of visions beginning with in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity. This is a new time marker describing visions that happened about a year and a half later. This series of visions is in Ezekiel 8-11. i. Ezekiel 8-11 is the record of one long vision. In the beginning of the vision Ezekiel sees the glory of the LORD at the temple in Jerusalem. By the end of the vision (Ezekiel 10-11), this glory will depart. ii. “They also supply us with a date corresponding to 17 September 592 B.C.E., therefore something more than a year after Ezekiel had received his prophetic call.” (Vawter and Hoppe) b. I sat in my house with the elders of Judah sitting before me: This reminds us that Ezekiel had his own house, and that he was respected enough as God’s prophet to receive the elders of Judah for an audience in his home. i. “The reason for their presence in Ezekiel’s house is not given, though Ezekiel 14:1-3 and Ezekiel 20:1 suggest that they came to him customarily to seek a word from Yahweh.” (Block) c. The hand of the Lord GOD fell upon me there: As before in Ezekiel 1:3, 3:14, 22, Ezekiel felt the presence and strength of Yahweh upon him. 2. (2-4) In a vision, Ezekiel is transported to Jerusalem. Then I looked, and there was a likeness, like the appearance of fire-from the appearance of His waist and downward, fire; and from His waist and upward, like the appearance of brightness, like the color of amber. He stretched out the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my hair; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven, and brought me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the north gate of the inner court, where the seat of the image of jealousy was, which provokes to jealousy. And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, like the vision that I saw in the plain. a. There was a likeness, like the appearance of fire: Ezekiel saw something similar to the likeness he saw in the vision of God and His glory in the first chapter (Ezekiel 1:27). That was a representation of God in some human likeness, and we see the same here. b. He stretched out the form of a hand: In his vision, something like a hand grabbed Ezekiel by the hair, and the Spirit carried him between heaven and earth, bringing him to Jerusalem in a vision. i. Ezekiel had this spiritual vision of Jerusalem in the days when Jeremiah served as a prophet, in that period between the second invasion of the Babylonians and their final conquest of Jerusalem. ii. “That he did not actually leave Babylon is clear from Ezekiel 11:24. He was carried back in spirit to Babylon after the visions were completed (Ezekiel 11:22-25).” (Feinberg) iii. In this vision Ezekiel saw four abominations at the temple. They were probably not literal in the sense that they were happening all at the same time at the temple and Ezekiel saw this in real time. God showed Ezekiel what was literally happening, in both an outward and in a spiritual sense. · The outrageous idol, associated with the king (Ezekiel 8:5-6). · The images and censers, associated with the city leaders (Ezekiel 8:7-13). · The weeping over Tammuz, associated with the women (Ezekiel 8:14-15). · The worship of the sun, associated with the priests (Ezekiel 8:16-18). c. To…the north gate of the inner court: Specifically, Ezekiel came to the temple. As a priest, he had a special interest not only in the temple but also in all that happened there. d. Where the seat of the image of jealousy was: In his vision, Ezekiel apparently saw an idolatrous image - the image of jealousy - standing in the inner court. This was likely right outside the temple building itself. i. “It was called the image of jealousy because it provokes to jealousy, i.e. it was an insult both to God and to his temple and to his people.” (Taylor) ii. Hezekiah removed idolatry from Judah (2 Kings 18:1-5), but his son Manasseh restored it and made it worse than ever, even putting an idol into the temple (2 Kings 21:1-7). Manasseh’s son Amon continued the state-sponsored idolatry of his father. King Josiah cleansed Judah of idolatry and burned the idol Manasseh had put in the temple (2 Kings 23:4-20). Now we see that the idol in the temple was back. iii. “The word ‘image’ is semel, which occurs elsewhere only in Deuteronomy 4:16 (where it is translated ‘figure’) and in 2 Chronicles 33:7,15, of a special ‘idol’ set up by King Manasseh in the Temple. Although this idol was later removed, Ezekiel’s use of the word may mean that a replica, if not the original, was put back. The word also occurs in Phoenician writings.” (Wright) e. Behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there: In his vision, Ezekiel saw the same glory of God that he saw in the plain. The glory of God was present at the temple of God in Jerusalem. There is a strong contrast between this glory and the debased idols and idolatry Ezekiel will see in the rest of this vision. i. God’s glory filled the tabernacle (Exodus 40:34-35) and later the temple (1 Kings 8:11). By the end of this vision (Ezekiel 10-11) the glory of the LORD will no longer dwell in the temple. 3. (5) Ezekiel looks to the north. Then He said to me, “Son of man, lift your eyes now toward the north.” So I lifted my eyes toward the north, and there, north of the altar gate, was this image of jealousy in the entrance. a. Lift your eyes now toward the north: If one stood facing the entrance to the temple, the north would be on the right side. We don’t know which way Ezekiel had to turn, but he was directed to face toward the north. b. North of the altar gate, was this image of jealousy in the entrance: There again, Ezekiel saw this idol in the temple court. It was called the image of jealousy because it provoked God to holy jealousy. i. The connection of this image with the north gate (Ezekiel 8:3) was significant, connecting this image of jealousy with royalty and the king. “This was the most honourable of the three gateways because, the royal palace being on the north side of the temple, the king would have used it whenever he went in to worship.” (Taylor) 4. (6-8) Great and greater abominations. Furthermore He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel commits here, to make Me go far away from My sanctuary? Now turn again, you will see greater abominations.” So He brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, there was a hole in the wall. Then He said to me, “Son of man, dig into the wall”; and when I dug into the wall, there was a door. a. The great abominations that the house of Israel commits here: Ezekiel saw the image of jealousy, and God told him that it represented the great abominations of Israel. b. To make Me go far away from My sanctuary: The idolatry was so persistent and offensive to God that it made Him determined to go far away. It was His sanctuary, belonging to God Himself, but He would leave it because of their great abominations. c. Now turn again, you will see greater abominations: What Ezekiel saw was bad enough; God now promised to show him worse things, greater abominations. d. Son of man, dig into the wall: To see those greater abominations, Ezekiel had to dig through a wall to see in his vision what was inside the temple itself. i. “While we may puzzle over how he is able to dig a hole in the wall or why he does not use the existing entrance to this room, the visionary nature of this entire unit removes the necessity for realism or logical consistency.” (Block) ii. In spiritual application, this shows that it may take some effort and energy to truly see the interior. If only an easy or surface observation is allowed, the true state of things may not be seen.

WHO IS A JEW IN GODS EYES?

Compare These Verses of Scripture from the Old Testament and the New Testament. Old Testament (Nation of Israel) Exo 19:5 Now therefore, IF ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: Exo_19:6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation.

Mat_21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a NATION bringing forth the fruits thereof. What nation was Jesus talking about?

Jesus is drawing out a people for his name out of every nation to establish the true Israel of God. Then we have Galatians 6:16 and Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 Gal_3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.

There is much method to these madnesses me thinks. Lots of them. Israel was the word spoken by God in Heaven before throwing out all of the rebelling Angels. They danced for each other to be each other's God. That is what is called, Falling for someone to give them your power over you and Say, as to what is Right or wrong to do and believe. These dancers as they danced challenged Good by Mocking him saying Ra-Ca. That is too say, Fool. God put his seal on the manner of angels that were told to do His says I'm Heaven by putting EL, behind their name. This is kind of like the word, Sheriff, or Judge, or General etc. God looked them over and asked them all, Is, EL, RA? which is the same as is-RA- EL. Everyone thrown out of heaven that landed in this creation, RA's. There is a Ra-Ja, Rajah. There are Rahnesh. There is a RA-Ma-dan, Ramadan. There is a Shah of I-RA-N. In this side of the Henriette the people who live in South America all say, El, like we say Mr. El-patron etc. In India and the Arab countries they all say Ra something. God dwells within and with his Word, Israel. All of the creation and the world are connected, to the word Israel. The actual creation land mass known as Israel, will be surrounded to be destroyed by all of the forces of RA. God is still shaking with animosity at their mockery. He'll need in the location of Israel, when this happens defending His Territory, like it is heaven on earth. All of this has been a huge set up from the beginning. It's a show. This will be the show down.

Replacement theology is a heresy and consists of believing the antichrists are God's chosen people. well chosen for what exactly. 1 John 2:22 - Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. ALL Jews, that is why they are jews, deny that Jesus is the Christ and that makes them antichrist A remnant of some shall come to the Lord at one point. Rev 11:13 - And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. Jesus in Revelation 2:9 - I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Galatians 3:29 - And if ye be Christ's, then ARE YE Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. Those in Christ ARE the seed [children] of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob Israel. Gentile does not mean non-jew either it just means nation God forbid you believe "white Christians" are the chosen people = racist or white supremacist Believing the antichrists who claim to be jews are the chosen people is replacement theology and is a lie from hell DOCTRINE OF MAN AND DEMONS..................... REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY IS A HOAX FROM THE PITS OF HELL... "The Replacement Theology is a belief that the Gentile Christians are to cling to Jewish rabbis, accept their teachings as authoritative and that Christians are to leave Christianity and to support physical so called Israel in order to be saved. This belief REPLACES Jesus Christ as the only authority with Jewish rabbis, REPLACES the Holy Spirit as the only teacher with the teachings of mere men, and REPLACES the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the different Jewish Gospel not known to the early apostles. The Replacement Theology also accepts the Talmud, Zohar and Kabbalah as a worthy and inspired commentary on the Tanakh and therefore REPLACES the authority of the Scripture as the only Word of God.”" CAN'T REPLACE MY KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS WITH JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH.

Deuteronomy 30:3 is the 5708th verse and it symbolizes for Hebrew year 5708 ! began in sept rosh hashanah 1947 and covered the period of may 1948 when Jews reestablished Israel! 'That then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will return and gather thee from all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath scattered thee.' Also the 1967 israeli return and victory is there in Deuteronomy. 31:3 The Lord your God himself will cross over ahead of you. He will destroy these nations before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will cross over ahead of you, as the Lord said.' While Deuteronomy 32:30 is 5784th for hebrew year 5784 in 2024.this says in 32:30 How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up? 31For their rock is not like our Rock,..." That means that most israelies have a false rock,and they dont believe in Jesus the true Rock. This also shows israel is pursued by many nations in some certain way.

[@torbjorngoransson2314]

I am not sure that dr Michael Brown really understands what the Bible really means with Israel after the cross. Therefore, I will try to explain what I believe the Bible teaches. In the Old Testament Israel is called Gods son and even firstborn son, a vine, servant, and seed. In the New Testament all that is beeing applied to Jesus Christ and later also to all who are in Christ. What that means we can read in e.g. Galatians 3:26-29; 4:28, Ephesians 2:11-14 and 2 Corinthians 1:20. Jesus Christ and all who belongs to Him accordingly are Gods Israel. Even though almost all Christians believe that God has two people, the truth is that God only has one people composed of all born again Jews and gentiles. They shall according to Revelation chapter 21 and 22 be reigning with Christ in the new Jerusalem for ever and ever. Nothing is mentioned in Revelation about Christ and his people reigning for 1000 years in the present Jerusalem.

The church is the Bride. the Bride of Christ Jesus will return with Jesus to save all of Israel. Israel is Gomer Hosia adulteress wife. Jesus will come for his wife with committed deep love and redeem her, winning her love and commitment to Him. He is coming for a bride that loves him and coming for a adultress wife to turn be faithful and love Him. Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the LORD❤

[@SavedByTheBloodOfChrist551]

Are you saying that God has both a wife and a bride? Or a wife and a mistress? I'm confused by your comments.

[@Alina-ws6ob]

The church is a spiritual entity and Israel is a nation. Two different things. The religion of the Bible from beginning to end is Christianity. There are Jewish Christians, Greek Christians, Chinese Christians etc. Don’t understand the confusion.

Neither. God is.

Absolutely not, God is not finished with Israel. The gospel has to be preached to the jew first and then to the gentile, this is still going on the world over until further notice! God's Holy Spirit is still bringing in jews from all over and also the gentiles, in other words His Church!

There's two Israels. There's two Torahs. There's two YHWH's. 1) Northern Kingdom of Israel capital Samaria temple Bethel YHWH pronounced Yehowah and Torah is Samaritan Pentateuch (SP). These are the true Israelites. 2) Southern Kingdom of Judah capital Jerusalem temple Beer-sheba YHWH unpronounceable but we say Yahweh and Torah is Masoretic Text (MT). These are the people of Jacob (renamed Israel). Yahweh is the great deciever. Don't accept the heavily contradictory and corrupted Masoretic Text (MT).

You cannot take Jesus away from His mystical body on earth which is The Roman Catholic Church. It's an insult to think otherwise. Jesus himself is the foundation you cannot remove or replace it. It's arrogance that will not allow a person to submit to The Catholic Church where Jesus is not only physically present but it's what He established.

[@johnpratts2856]

Incorrect and blasphemous. Rome will fall by His hand. The house of Babylon will face Justice by Messiah Yeshua Himself.

@@johnpratts2856 You will find out otherwise. Thank you for confirming my faith. It is you and Israel that is falling are you blind? Again The Roman Catholic Church is not made with human hands therefore it cannot and will not ever be destroyed. Jesus our Messiah is the foundation. It's arrogance and very prideful to think otherwise. It's mainly pride that condemns a person. It was pride that blinded the Jewish people into having our Lord crucified. They said that He was blasphemous then and your still saying it now about us His true followers.....for that I'm grateful, again thank you. I enjoy you passing judgment as for me I'm responsible for standing up for my faith, otherwise I wouldn't have one as long as I have. And it happens to be over 2,000 years now. We and all of His saints that have gone before us shed blood for our Roman Catholic Church. And we never back down from the truth unto death. Who else on this entire planet can claim what we do? Absolutely no one! Every one and every thing is an embarrassment by comparison. Open your eyes.
