"We do fall heir to all things in Him. Israel, to whom the promise pertained, (Romans 9:4), did not become heir, while we the members of the secret, unprophesied, body have become heirs in Christ." Did the Apostles and the hundreds of thousands of Jews who accepted Christ during the first decades of the Chruch heirs to the promises of Abrham? Did the Jewish children of the hundreds of thousand of Jewish Christian converts in the first century remains heirs of Abraham or were they cutoff because they had accepted Christ and joined the Christian Church with their parents? Are the descendants of these early Christian Jews still heirs today despite their Christian heritage and memebership in the Christian Church for 2000 years? How about all the millions of Jews who have coverted to Christ and joined themselves to the Christian Church for the last 2000 years? Is it possible to lift the darkness from your mind James, or are you determine to love your darkness? "while we the members of the secret, unprophesied, body have become heirs in Christ." Not a word of prophecy about Gods' greatest creation---the Christian Church--the Body of Christ? Every chapter in the prophets speaks of the glorious Body of Christ! Do you know why you can't see these Chruch Prophecies in the Bible, James? Why is there something so lacking in you? Your reasoning is carnal because you reject the simple teachings of the Holy Word of God on these matters. I have watched you for over a year and your darkness seems to grow rather than diminsh. You have itchy ears and love to follow every novel teaching that Hollywood or newspapers put in your mind. The Word says that he who loves a lie will be given an even greater lie. My simple suggestion to you is for you to determine withing your heart that the entire Scriptures belong to you and that you will believe, without twisting and hesitation, the entire Word. With that determination in your heart, the Holy Spirit will guide you in understanding. If you continue to approach the Word of God with preconceived ideas and false teachings that you hold more dearly than you do the Word and councel of God, you will remain in your darkness.
