My awesome, Grandchildren, and Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin; whom I love and pray for every day: “…the LORD raised up judges…and delivered Israel out of the hand of their enemies…for THE LORD WAS MOVED TO PITY BY THEIR GROANING…And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that THEY REVERTED AND BEHAVED MORE CORRUPTLY THAN THEIR FATHERS, BY FOLLOWING OTHER GODS, TO SERVE THEM AND BOW DOWN TO THEM. They did not cease from their stubborn way.” (Judg. 2:18-19) Israel spent thousands of years turning away from and REJECTING GOD even to the point of REJECTING JESUS CHRIST as our redeemer. Rabbis, religious leaders and religious followers will respond to this question that Jesus cannot be the Messiah because he did not fulfill the job requirements. It was necessary for the Messiah to first come, suffer and die as an atonement for sin. By doing so, he brought peace between humanity and God. However, the Jewish Scriptures go on to INCORRECTLY explain that Jesus will return and AT THAT TIME establish peace on earth. So, they are still looking for the Messiah. We must pray for them…
“I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite…God has not cast away His people…as it is written: “God gave them a spirit of stupor, EYES THAT COULD NOT SEE AND EARS THAT COULD NOT HEAR, TO THIS VERY DAY.” (Rom. 11:1-2, 8) Paul became a minister to the Gentiles and said, “…remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” …at that time you were SEPARATE FROM CHRIST …without hope and without God in the world…now IN CHRIST JESUS YOU…HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NEAR BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST…He HIMSELF HAS MADE THE TWO GROUPS (Jew and Gentile) ONE and has destroyed the dividing wall of hostility…you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but FELLOW CITIZENS WITH GOD’S PEOPLE and also members of his household…” (Eph. 2:11-14, 19)
ONLY GOD COULD INCLUDE THE GENTILES AND MAKE THE TWO GROUPS ONE…
Notice: […We must understand that the bible says:] “…now IN CHRIST JESUS YOU…HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NEAR BY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST…” !!!] That’s for you: Stephanie, Ethan, Camden, Olivia, Aidan, Landon, Kinsley, Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin…
