Greetings Alan, << are the above Christians >>, I'm sure the majority of these people are, however they are very gullible and have been deceived by the traditions of man with respect to who is the true " Israel of God ", according to the Word of God. The Bible is not about dispensations but about covenants, God's people are those in covenant with Him. Prior to Calvary it was Israel, those who believed the promise given to Abraham. These were looking ahead to the coming of the Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ. From Calvary on, the people of God are those in covenant with Him, that is people from ALL NATIONS, according to Genesis 12:3. These people are the true Israel of God, the Holy Church of Christ, made up from all nations, and that includes people from Israel. A careful study of Gods Word would liberate you from the chains that bind you with your nationalistic fever for the present state of Israel. Any nation that does not recognise Jesus as the promised Messiah, is by BIBLICAL DEFINITION, apostate and anti-christ. How well my brothers in Christ, Emile and Chris have laboured to try and help you come to this truth. I join with them and pray that you would open your heart and mind to the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ, who now lives and rules His Church, the Body of Christ, the true Israel of God. Grace and peace be yours in abundance according to the desires of your heart. Robert |
