Are Jews still God's Chosen People ?

When the high priest stood before God on the Day of Atonement, he was said to be "face to face" with God. Because of this, the Day of Atonement became known by the phrase "face to face." "Face to face" is a terminology used in: “For we know in part; and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known .”

Silence was kept by the congregation on Day of Atonement during to time when the High Priest was in the most holy.397 Here we see a reference to silence during the time when God is raised up in the Most Holy Place to wed/choose/receive the inheritance/bride/believers that which is perfect in Christ. This time of silence is the very time when the New/Eternal Covenant is ratified and we wait until King Yeshua emerges to claim His inheritance.

The sins are atoned for only on the Day of Atonement. Atoned as in purged, gone off the record books of Life. We know that in the book of Hebrews the work that Yeshua is doing in the heaven has been towards the final atonement work. We know that in Revelation is the effects of the atonement of Yeshua in the heaven at work and we will see its effect upon the world.

The 10 Days of Awe (Feast of Trumpets) are a time of deep introspection, reflection, and contemplation leading up to the actual Day of Atonement, which is itself the most solemn of all the days on the Jewish calendar! In fact, this day, the Day of Atonement, though called a "Feast" day, is actually a day of Fasting and humiliation, a day in which they are commanded to "deny" themselves (in fasting and in refraining from all pursuits of pleasure and gratification.) 405 It is called a lasting ordiance because when it is fulfilled the effect will not be like with earthly priests who had to do it every year, it will be done once by Yeshua as our High Priest and its effect will last us all eternity.

The seven trumpets will test to see what type of metal you are made of. By the Day of Atonement, when the Lord opens up the Book of Your life....the polishing will be finished, the potter will have finished molding your character that is to hold His spirit, the temple which is you. Can you hold the Spirit of God within you perfectly?

 

[visionary]

By the end of the Day of Atonement, the judgment is signed, sealed, and set. The books are closed. The gavel falls. Every human being is inscribed either in the Book of Life or the Book of Death. One last, long trumpet sounds at the end of the day as the gates of heaven swing shut and close.

In discussing the Day of Atonement it is helpful to accurately define the word "Atonement." Atonement does not mean forgiveness of sin. It is from the Hebrew word kaphar which means, "Covering". This is the one day a year when the High Priest is to create a covering for Israel, separating the sin from the sinner forever. This covering, is the robe of righteousness, that fine linen you have been looking for. This is the wedding day when Yeshua will marry His bride.

As you can see from the verses provided, that is what all of creation is waiting for, perfect
in Christ is possible, and with God all things are possible. Now let’s go back to the temple
to see what else the Lord will on the Day of Atonement.

“And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation.” There were two scapegoats brought before the temple.
And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for
the scapegoat. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD's lot fell, and offer
him for a sin offering. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be
presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a
scapegoat into the wilderness.

This is the only time in History where you will have the great deceiver pretending to be Yeshua. This is why there were two identical goats brought to the temple on the Day of Atonement. The prophetic implications are that this is the time that Satan will be before the congregation, for the world to see, representing himself as Christ.

Well, in order for Satan to do a good job he will have to manifest himself as a majestic being probably of dazzling brightness, and probably resembling the description of the Son of God given by John. “And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” There are several things that he cannot copy, and one is that he will not come in the flesh and the other is he is not Holy nor can he imitate what Yeshua is. If it were possible, it would even deceive the very elect... Satan's performance before mankind, will be the climax... the time when the wheat and tares are separated.

 

[visionary]

Now in order to do this the scapegoat, Satan has to appear before the congregation during
the time period at the start of the Day of Atonement when the two goats are brought to
prophetic view. Satan will imitate Yeshua Christ and thus fulfill the type by being a copy of
Yershua in His first coming ministry.

Satan, who insinuates that God’s laws are not binding, who says you can change them as needed, who says that you do not need the Laws of God because you are under His Grace, who says that these laws are done away with at the cross, that the world is ripe for His imitation. He wants his system in place before He appears, He wants people to defend his ways, his worship and his gospel so that when He does come as the Christ, they will crown Him the God of this Earth.

The Day of Atonement is over, the plagues are falling, the deception is over, the desolation, destruction, and the voice of a conscience upon the world is gone. The chaos that results from multitudes which a conscience is one of the most horrible scenes to try and visualize with the human mind, for it is inconceivable to comprehend the atrocities that will occur when the wrath of God is upon the people, who are maddened by the evil that dwells within, which an intercessor, who pleads for the people to do the Will of God.

The believers during this time, having been trained by God on what is right, having their minds fully on Yeshua, and knowing where they are in earth’s history are looking for their redeemer to take them home to the Wedding Feast.

A lot of Messianics believe in keeping much of the ceremonial law.

Orthodox Judism is not a sect, it is anti-Christian--rejecting Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

I believe the Gospels present rabbinic Judaism as a rejection of Moses as well.

I agree we believers do look for that, but Christ has performed the atonement for sin once and for all already. Hebrews tells us this much. Hebrews also tells us

Heb 10:3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.

But Christs sacrifice of the new covenant....He remembers them no more.

Heb 10:15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

John the baptist warned them of the coming wrath upon that generation. They were under a curse. The escape was Christ Jesus.
Mt 3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Lu 3:7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
1Th 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

Ac 2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

They were vipers, a perverse and crooked generation....

Interesting. . .where can I find that?

Did they listen to moses?
Joh 5:46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
