Bare with me here because I have a rant and I don't do this ever.
I hear all these people saying oh no, Isreal is being attacked, must help them, must pray for them. Then you have the other side, Palestinians have been attacked for hundreds of years, must help them, must pray for them. I say we must not help any of them, we must first help our own country and the people here that are hurting. We should however pray for them all because so many innocent people will be hurt or killed from what all is coming worldwide. You see I hear so many conversations about God's chosen people but let me put it to everyone straight, the Jews are not God's chosen people. No where in the bible does it say, the Jews are his chosen people however the bible does make clear his people will walk with him in Heaven. GOD'S PEOPLE ARE ALL PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM AND DO NOT DENY THE SON OF GOD!!! Should I say it louder for those in the back.....we are all God's chosen people.
Now many will lose it and downvote me for ever saying this but this has so many divided just like everything else. Now let me walk you through a few things as I questioned the whole God's chosen people from a very young age. If the Jewish community were the chosen one's then why have any other religion, why not convert to Judaism? As a young woman I started to dive into many religions, wanting to know as much as I could because I wanted to know why we were so divided by religion. I found lots of things to be similar however I found so much to be questioned. Why do the Jews say Jesus was a lunatic and why do they deny Jesus as the son of God? Why is it that they teach that us Goyem are only dirt below them? Didn't Jesus spread a message of love and acceptance, oh wait they don't believe in him. This is one of the things I found so disturbing. Did you know that Palestinians are predominately Christian, yes they have extremists groups like every religious belief but when you start to follow the money behind every extremist group it always leads back to the same groups of people. These are the same groups that own the media, the banks, darn near all corporations and so many politicians worldwide. As Christians we should all be joining the prayer chains for all being effected by crimes and wars. Not just there, not just here, but all over the world. We have entered a completely new realm at this point and scripture is unfolding before our eyes. So lift up all those around us in prayer because right now we could all use a prayer or two. Now I am not saying to just pray and not stand because we have been invaded, every country has and the time is coming when we may all have to fight, I mean even God's angels carry swords, however even if you have to defend yourself or your family please remember to pray for everyone, you never know when God will be able to overcome an evil heart.
Sorry to have run on so much but I have just felt the need to just put my rant on out there.
I will pray for each one of you along with those who will strive to hurt us all. I will stand firm on the belief that prayers will make as much a difference as having every piece of survival gear out there. Prayer may overcome an evil heart and when it cannot then prayer can help keep our aim true.
Love and prayers for what is coming!!!!!
This article is a good starting point for why the Jews are God’s chosen people:
https://www.gotquestions.org/Gods-chosen-people.html
Note that this status as God’s chosen people also means extra responsibility and accountability to God, not just the perks of being “favored”. The fact that the Jews fall so far short of God’s (pretty reasonable) expectations means that they will face harsher judgment front God than otherwise. To whom much is given, much is also expected.
You correctly point out that the Jews have rejected God by rejecting His Son Jesus Christ. However, this exact same pattern occurs through out the Old Testament. The people of Israel routinely rejected God and tried to do things their own way. God’s response every time was two-fold: to punish them for their wickedness, but also to bring them back to Himself.
God used the prophet Hosea to illustrate His love for Israel by having Hosea marry a harlot. The harlot naturally cheats on Hosea at every available opportunity, but God commands Hosea to keep loving her and keep trying to reconcile with her. Gos used this as a picture to illustrate His love for the very people who continually rejected Him.
For the past two thousand years the Jews have been spiritually blinded due to their rejection of Christ, but there is coming a day when God will turn them back to Himself one last time. This will occur in the Tribulation and continue into the Millennial Reign of Christ afterward.
That is the situation in the spiritual realm. In the political realm, there is not much we can do other than pray for and work toward the exposure and removal of corrupt Deep State assets in every government; both theirs and ours.
Amen brother! Do people even read the bible? We pray for all people regardless what side they are on, this is what Jesus teaches. God has given mankind free will to choose between good(Jesus) and evil(Satan). Choose wisely. God is longsuffering but His wrath is soon to come. HalleluJAH!
FlySciFiGuy-Great explanation! The OT is the story of the Hebrew people who repeatedly rejected God’s covenant. In the NT Jesus is the new covenant. He says only two things matter- love of God above all else and love of neighbor. IMO in 2023 the church is God’s “chosen.” As the hands and feet of Christ we should love and pray for ALL.
Jewish books "We are God's chosen people"
you "well that's all the proof I need!"
The Bible is divinely inspired and one of the most highly corroborated historical records in history.
The Old Testament goes into great detail about the moral failings of the Israelites, going as far as to call them spiritual harlots. It talks more about how the Israelites rejected God and were punished by Him than any of their victories. This verifies the Old Testament’s reliability; Jewish propaganda wouldn’t address these subjects.
Paul echoed the sentiment that the Jews were God’s chosen people despite facing fierce persecution from their religious leaders and the Jewish people’s widespread rejection of the gospel he preached.
“As Christians we should all be joining the prayer chains for all being effected by crimes and wars.” THIS. Prayer really is the only thing that will change our entire situation. This is one of the main reasons I went back to church on Sundays- just so I can be in a room full of people all praying the same thing. We are all Gods children and should pray for the conversion of peoples hearts so they will see that.
Amen and HalleluJAH!
The modern state of Israel is not a part of God's Old Testament covenant.
Nope.The covenant has no expiration date.
So how does the nation state of Israel fit in?? There is no covenant with the secular state of Israel.
That's right. The Catholic church is the new Israel.
