Jew and Gentile have the same choice. Receive Christ (Yeshua Ha-Mashiach) or reject Christ. Those who receive Him for the propitiation of their sin are reconciled to God. Those who reject Him for the propitiation of their sin - remain in their sin and are not reconciled to God.
Jesus is spoken of in every book of the Old Testament. Re: http://www.jesus.org/is-jesus-god/old-testament-prophecies/is-jesus-in-every-book-of-the-old-testament.html
Jews who receive Yeshua Ha-Mashiach are not rejecting God or their Jewishness. Jesus is the fulfillment of the law! Will we choose truth over tradition when when they are not in agreement?
While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” - Jesus speaking in Matthew 12
“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one (Jew or Gentile) comes to the Father except through me." - Jesus speaking in John 4.
I was not speaking in a personal sense, but in a societal sense. The Gentile nations were not given the choice of the kingdom rule promised to Abraham, but have on their own rejected the Jewish among them to bend over backwards to embrace their evil doppelganger Islam.
God promised a kingdom for the people of Israel, and He will deliver exactly that to those people. While Gentiles may have a part in that kingdom, they have ONLY a part.
Do not forget you do not support the root, but the root supports you or you may find yourself discarded as the natural branches of the tree are grafted back in.
I suggest contemplating Romans 10 and 11.
Israel is the chosen people, and those who cling to him.
Yes it is patently obvious that there is no salvation without the Messiah, but God’s plan is far more in depth than just that.
Hense the parallelism between the choices men are given and our response wither Jew or Gentile. This is why my commentary.
I see on rereading my statement why you took it that way, I poorly stated it. I should have made it clear that I was thinking of the choice as given to the Jewish Nation vs the Gentile nations.
Yes, through Messiah Ben Yoseph, you can find salvation and choose to serve God. And yet many await Messiah Ben David.
To me clearly there is only one Messiah, just two visitations. To others that is not clear.
For me, I prefer to take the first bus Home. And yes Jesus is, was, and will be the Messiah for all mankind, for those who choose God’s rule that is. Only you really must read the whole Bible to understand the full context of Revelation.
If you insist on just reading the last chapters in a murder mystery you may understand the what, but miss the whole story of why.
The church is guilty of listening to someone explain the cliff notes then lecturing endlessly on what they have heard.
Do you realize that the New Jerusalem will be an exclusive Jewish subburb?
