Man, are you serious?

Godless Gentiles have no knowledge of God’s law. The Jewish nation certainly did (and so did the Gentiles that lived with them), and so do CHRISTIANS, as they are now a CONTINUATION of Israel, ABRAHAM’S SEED, Inheritors of the promise... expected to obey God’s laws.

All you have to do is look AT THE TERMS OF THE NEW COVENANT, you know, the one that Christ shed his blood for, ratified at the cross, mentioned in Matthew 26 at THE LAST SUPPER? You know, THAT ONE, the one that you keep denying, which in effect is denying the blood of Christ (ponder that).

Hebrews 8:
10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

11And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

RATIFIED AT THE CROSS WITH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST.

You aren’t under the New Covenant? Fine. Good luck with that. No New Covenant, (no BOL), no heaven.

The only way you are getting in, after Grace, is if you OBEY. (unless one happens to die right after the moment of Grace, like the thief on the cross, etc.... Death Bed Confession of Faith).

...they are now a CONTINUATION of Israel...

REALLY?

I sure do NOT read it that way!!


Galatians 3:28-29 KJV

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.


For some silly reason, I do NOT think Abraham was ISRAEL.

God gives the name Israel to Abraham’s grandson Jacob after he spends a night wrestling with God (Genesis 32:28).
 
Later, Israel is the name given to Jacob’s offspring and to the nation that they eventually form.
