"How do you overlook the many things..... and still believe that you are the spiritual Israel of God? "
Perhaps this will help you understand:
And have put on the new man, which is renewed
in knowledge after the image of him that created him;
Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision
nor uncircumcision, Barbarian , Scythian...but
Christ is all, and in all,
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and
beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of
mind, meekness, longsuffering....
Christians are the "elect of God" where " there is neither
circumcision nor uncircumcision.
The New Covenant people of God--the Christian people-- have
existed for 2000 years. The old covenant people of God lasted from the establishement of the Hebrew nation in approx. 1400 B.C. to Christ's establishment of the Kingdom of God.
The old covenant nation lasted for 1400 years. They represented but a shadow of the the glory that was to be in Christ's new Kingdom people. The old covenant with physical Israel was fulfilled when Jesus established His New Covenant with the house of Israel and the House of Judah at Cavalry. |
