“Sorry, Jews have their own covenant with G-d, and Gentiles have theirs. My distant cousin, the carpenter’s son, is not my savior. Only G-d Himself can be that.”

Jesus instructed the apostle John to write the following:

When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades. Revelation 1:17-18

The same Christ who placed His hand on Daniel (Daniel 10) is the same Christ who comforts John in Revelation 1. The same Christ who declares Himself the “first and the last” is the same God who declared Himself the first and the last three different times in Isaiah:

“Who has performed and accomplished it, Calling forth the generations from the beginning? ‘I, the LORD, am the first, and with the last. I am He.’” Isaiah 41:4

“Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me. Isaiah 44:6

“Listen to Me, O Jacob, even Israel whom I called; I am He, I am the first, I am also the last. Isaiah 48:12

Many of the Jews who lived to see the coming of Christ believed in Him, this son of a carpenter that Jews reject today.

The covenant of Israel you seek was fulfilled in the person and work of Yeshua HaMashiach, the Lord and Redeemer of Israel. Israel simply needs to accept Him.

Many Jews reject Him because the christian gospel today isn’t the gospel Paul preached..

The worship of Christendom today is based on Rome’s gospel..

Hence December 25 instead of His real birthday
Good Friday instead of Passover
Easter Sunday instead of First Fruits.

I never realized I was a slave to Rome’s gospel account until He showed me the difference..

And there is a difference.
And tough to square ‘The Word became flesh and dwelt among us ‘ when all the ‘worship’ and holy days have zero to do with that Word and everything to do with Rome’s Greco roman Latin traditions..

It isn’t an accident Jews celebrate first fruits on a Sunday every year and not on the third day from Passover as Torah explains and the New Testament confirms.
They do not see the day in between as their weekly Sabbath but that is exactly what our Heavenly Father’s calendar shows in scripture..

Jews need to reject Rome and its calendar named for a pope before they can see their Messiah and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us..

They rejecting Jesus is not a bad thing if all they see is Christian’s worship from Rome’s gospel.
I met Him as Jesus but He didn’t let me stay there.. and it took me rejecting Rome and her gospel and learn His Truth to see there is a real difference..

But today is His 2nd day of the week to me - not Thor’s day like the world calls it..
I am not part of the rule but an exception.. and I hate that I played a part in hiding Truth from my Jewish or Muslim or Christian or secular humanists or atheist neighbors.

Those new moons, Sabbaths and Feasts Israel was taught are not just fulfilled spiritually, but literally, by the Word that became flesh ad dwlt among us.
From His birth, to His circumcision on the 8th day, His dedication in the temple after His mother’s 40 day purification, His baptism, His death, burial and resurrection..all on either New Moons, Sabbaths or Feasts Israel was taught.

The greatest story ever told... and maybe the greatest counterfeit ever created at the same time..
