Exactly right, CB. But there WAS a time when we WERE separated, BY GOD HIMSELF. THAT is what I’m trying to get roamer 1 to see, BY SCRIPTURE, it’s proven. He seems unimpressed by God’s word of truth on this matter..
It’s become clear to me that they do not believe what the Holy Spirit says in the New Testament. They have been convinced by some sect that the New Testament is secondary to the Old and have denied words in the New Testament in order to try to fit their belief rather than read what the Holy Spirit inspired. I believe it’s time to leave them to their error.
There still IS that same separation. Gentile basically means 'without covenant', so there can be no 'gentile' believers. Once you enter the covenant, by definition, you are no longer a 'gentile'.
Israel was *not* supposed to be insular. They were supposed to be a 'light to the world', just like Christians are supposed to be.
Remember Paul getting all up in Peter's grill about not eating with the gentiles (c. Gal 2/3)? Find the commandment not to eat with gentiles. Go ahead. I'll wait.
Nah... don't do it... because it ISN'T THERE. Peter was STILL having trouble following Torah instead of Talmudism (where such commandments are expressly given... BY MEN). Likewise, your wall of partition is another insular device, made from tradition, not Torah.

No, I am unimpressed by your interpretation of YHWH's Word. Y'all really, REALLY need to read the front of the Book.
