Great question and I’m confused, too.

I guess what else I’m asking is if the Gentiles who are being saved by faith in Christ, through the new covenant, are of the bloodline of the House of Israel.

If the house of Israel was dispersed among the Gentiles, that would make sense.

Maybe that could explain the apparent randomness of why some people and families seem to see a lot of conversion, and others don’t.

IOW, that would be the criteria of why God *chooses* to save people as the Calvinists say. It’s not really for some reason that we don’t know.

Interesting concept.
