Completely agree. Nobody was pushin' dispensationalism.
Just exploring our ancestry, and maybe getting an idea who Satan's major players are in end time prophecy.
as Jesus' states , Satan's 'players' in end times of THIS earth is the whole earth bar the few [Matt 7:14, Jude 1:14] saints of Israel [Rev 7:3-8] , but what MOST miss in scripture is that the scripture is mostly NOT about the Jews [House of Judah] ,but more about the nation that ceased to be a people [unlike the Jews] who never accepted Judaism [unlike the Jews] , never accepted the House of Judah [Jews] because they served other gods than God even after they were scattered worldwide [long before the Jews were scattered] :-
Deuteronomy 28:64 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.
this obviously does not apply to the Jews who serve the God of their fathers , however badly [as Jesus pointed out, sometimes unlovingly , because of their traditions since captivity, even to keeping Passover a day later than Jesus as recorded in the NT which completely fools many folks and most Jews as to what day is annual sabbath of Passover and which is weekly sabbath in the week Jesus died]
anyway Jesus was sent by God as Messiah of Israel first ONLY to the lost House of Israel ,living as gentiles amongst the gentiles, not to the Jews ...
Matthew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
clearly then Jesus and later the disciples had to preach to teh gentiles to find out who among them are the chosen of God because they happen to be the descendants of Jacob despite thinking they are gentiles [after thousands of years living as gentiles in gentile nations...]
the fact is that Jews were and still are the MINORITY in Israel [not helped by persecution and genocide , but they always were the smaller part of Israel, the tribe of Judah, half the tribe of Levi as priests and som of Benjamin... so perhaps 20,000 saints are Jews , but most of the saints , perhaps 120,000 are seemingly gentiles but really the lost House of Israel's descendants - Rev 7:3-8
It ain't a 'theory' ,it is simply what God says in scripture , it is the House of Israel AND the Jews whose descendants are forgiven in the new covenant [Jer 31:31-34 - repeated in the NT -Heb 8:8-12] - NOTE that the new covenant is ONLY with those whose fathers broke th old covenant, there is no 'spiritual Israel' here , these are true descendants of Jacob even though most do not know it, possibly all who are not Jews and think they are gentiles... until they get baptised of the spirit to know all truth [John 16:13] or get to read the scripture and realise what it says which neither Jews nor 'sinner Christians' [oxymoron] acknowledge because they do not want to ...
Isaiah 7:8 For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
Deuteronomy 32:21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
Jews mostly say the House of Israel merged with the Jews ,but that is not what God says [above quote... they serve other gods after being scattered in all gentile nations] ... Christians ignore that Jesus said he was sent ONLY to the House of Israel or pretend they are Israel despite that the new covenant states tha it is only with those whose fathers broke the old covenant
all in all religion just pretends that the scripture isn't true whist pretendsing they believe it is true.... it is rather sad how pathetic that is , one cannot fool God!...
