"Paul teaches this too in Romans 11:26
And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob."
And all Israel was saved just as the scriptures prophesied! Your problem arises because you have NO understanding of what makes a real Israelite in both the Old and New Ts. You think Israel is the seed of Abraham, as in genetics, rather than SEED singular meaning Christ as St. Paul tried to teach you to no avail. If the promises belong to the genetics of Abraham plural, then the children of Esau and the children of Keturah would all have inherited the promises. We would have a Gospel based on race rather than a Gospel based on righteousness by faith.(very similar to the Nazi race theories where they substituted Germanic genes for Jewish genes)
It was never about genetics, but about the "faith of Abraham". It was the faith of Abraham that made him chosen, not his genetics. It was the faith of Isaac that made him chosen, not his genetics. It was the faith of Jacob that made him chosen, not his genetics. It was the faith St. Paul that made him chosen, not his genetics. It was the lack of faith of Judas Iscariot that condemned him, not his genetics. The genes of Abraham in Judas Isacariot could not help him because he lacked the faith of Abraham. The pure genes of those who rejected Christ in the Sanhedrin could not help them because they lacked the faith of Abraham. |
