"Emile, Jesus was a Jew"
Jesus was very clearly a Hebrew from the tribe of Judah, and Matt. and Luke both record his genealogy to prove the fact.
Was Jesus in any way related to the adherents to Modern Judaism? Today we have many black Ethhiopian Jews of the Negro race, Oriental Jews of the Oriental race, semitic Jews of the Arabic race, Khazar Russian Jews of the mixed Turko-Mongolian-slavic race and European Jews. The Jews of today have no genealogy and are the most mixed racial group in the world! The Jews of today are not Hebrews but Heinz 84, so how can you say that they are related to Jesus? Which group of these modern Jews is realed to Jesus: The Ethiopian Negro whose ancestors never set foot in ancient Israel? The Turko-Mongolian Khazars whose ancestors never set foot in Ancient Israel? Or, the millions of Russian Khazars who were converted to Judaism in the ninth century and whose ancestors never set foot in ancient Israel?
Jesus was of the Hebrew race, not the African, or the Khazar, or the Oriental, or the European! Jesus was not a Jew as the Jews are today!
Jesus was the Hebrew son of a Hebrew virgin names Mary who conceived by the Holy Spirit. Jesus was the Son of God and the Son of a holy Hebrew woman who worshipped God.
The Jews of today have no realtionship to Jesus either spiritually or physically unless they receive Jesus as the Son of God and their redeemer.
Under the Old Covenant that Jesus abolished, a Jew was a Hebrew that traced his genealogy to Abraham and Jacob. The Old Covenant Jewish religion was destroyed by Jesus when he established the New Covenant Jews through his Crucifixion and Resurrection.
Under the New Covenant :
1. The Lord tells us in Romans 2:
"28": For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
"29": But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and notin the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
2. In Galatians 3, God tells us:
28: There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
3. God tells us in Colossians 3:
10": And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
"11": Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
4. And then God tells us in Rev. 2:9, and 3:9
"2:9": ... I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
3:9: 9": Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; ---------------------------------------------------------------
Under the New Covenant established by the Jewish-Hebrew Jesus, only those who believe and trust in Jesus are TRUE JEWS. |
