Jew and Israelite are used interchangeably in the New Testament
--------------
Shalom wrote:
>>" ...While the other nation is called "the
whole house of Judah", "the house of Judah",
"the children of Judah" "all Judah", and "Judah" OR "the Jews".
The name Jew is derived from the name of Judah
(son of Jacob), Hence the name Jew and
Jews are applied ONLY to the people
who composed the Kingdom of Judah and "all Judah"
and which finally bacame known as "Judea" and "Jewry", "all Judea" and All Jewry<<
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Shalom is saying that in the New Testament the
word Jew is reserved exclusively for people of the
tribe of Judah. Is this true or is this another
false doctrine that Shalom has to hold to in order to
believe and teach the Anglo-Israel Identity heresy?
In the New Testaement the word Jew and Israel are
clearly used interchangeably.Let us look at some
Scriptures.
In Rom. 11:1, Paul calls himself an Isrealite:
"For I am also an Israelite, of
the seed of Abraham of the tribe of
Benjamin.
PAUL IS AN ISRAELITE FROM THE TRIBE OF JUDAH.
In Acts 21:39, Paul calls himself a Jew.
"But Paul said, I am a man which am A JEW
of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia,...
-------------------------------------------------
So, according to the Scriptures, Paul belongs
to one of Shaloms's mythical Lost Ten Tribes
The "Lost Ten Tribe" myth is one but one
of the "Jewish fables" that the Anglo-Israel Identity
movement has swallowed.
We are speaking of serious heretical teachings that
could eventually lead some Christians into apostasy.
May the Spirit of God give all thoses who read these
important matters a love of truth and a spirit of
discernment.
Christ, the hope of salvation and eternal life
to all who believe upon His Name. To God the Fahter,
our Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit belong
honor and power and glory, now and forever, and ever.
