Well, every one does have to come through Jesus, any Christian will agree, but that's not what I'm talking about. The Jews are still God's people and He will defend them in the end.
What happened was when Constantine took over the church Of Jesus Christ, Antisemitism was injected all through the Roman church. Sunday was injected over the Sabbath, Pagan holidays were substituted for Biblical Feast days, and laws were changed to cut the Jews out. Even 3rd John 9 speaks of John griping about some Greek not allowing Jews that actually walked and talked with Jesus to speak in their church. Being God's people doesn't mean they will all get salvation. What I'm saying is Israel is still the apple of God's eye and He will defend them. All of world history revolves around how we treat Israel. The Goat Nations will be the ones that treated Israel poorly. Notice there was nothing about individual salvation mentioned. But if you live in a goat nation, you and your children can suffer with the rest of the country. There are Christians living in Iran, but would you want to live in Iran? When they cut your son's head off, he will go to Heaven if he is truly a Christian, but I don't know of anyone that would desire that. It's how Iran treats Israel that they will be judged. My point here today was to raise an alarm about the rise of Antisemitism here in the US and increasingly in the world. If Our government falls into the hands of the AOC and Bernie Sanders types, your personal relationship with Jesus won't matter when they start to murder your family and take all your property.
It's sorta like saying Bro Billy was finally healed when he died of cancer and went to Heaven. Salvation and a blessed life on earth are two different things.
That was a point I tried to make early on. Shem was blessed, but Ham was cursed through Canaan. The Canaanites were cursed in the Promised Land. All of the Canaanites, Jebusites, and all of the other “ites” are dead and the Hebrews are still here and will be here until the final battle. Abraham was elected, for reasons only God knows. Abraham loved Sarah so Issac was elected and blessed by God. Ishmael was NOT elected, but tossed out. Issac had twins from the same mother, but God elected Jacob and cursed Esau. Esau hated Jacob through the generations. God blesses His people and curses whom He chooses. I’m just saying that Jacob(Israel) has been blessed. Don’t be against them or you are confronting God. Gentiles have been grafted in through the adoption of Joseph’s gentile children. There is a Spiritual picture here that people with eyes to see can see. If you look with carnal eyes, you are blind to God who is Spirit.
