Saul of Tarsus was murdering christian at their bidding.. come on! they were offended and blood was on their hands ... blood of christians and of christ though he forgives and so do we.. ..now you are right it doesn't mean rome was close to right either. but those two aren't and weren't the only game in town.. Jesus has been calling his to him from the corners of the universe forever and that never changed.. both of those were trying to murder them.
no not really.. you might want to re read most of the new testement.. no there is going to be lots and lots and lots of repenting back there for sure for sure for sure . blood is on every human hands to the jews first then to rome and it's
christians.... and the rest worse than others.
in the mean time , those two sticks are 10/ 12 gentile( the lost ( tribes ) are gentile in their beliefs and their ideas. .. most of them won't have a clue they are of any tribes. 10/ 12 will be in a relationship and commitment to him and most of those have ZIP loyalty to Judaism except they love jesus , so it has no loyalty to it , because judaism ( the religion ) was not trust worthy..it was not worthy of anyone trust . as a religion of men which long since lost their connection to Him. he only is life, he only is faithful. .. now he hasn't lost his connection to them though. and I will argue that forever.. just as he hasn't lost his connection to anyone.. remember he is the faithful one here not them and not us .
but you have to hand it to the jews they sure remember their religion and dot and tittle that may not be all bad.. but God is the faithful one here to turn even that little bit to good.
and just 1/12 of Judah in is for clan function of his Kingdom and 1/ 12 Levi have the temple service .. and that is it.. but the whole rest of the world IS Gentiles! stop offending them ok
maybe you can pray about them. please!
maybe history of northern Israel is why it was send them off to gain a new idea.. called relationship..men willing to go up that mountain(sinai ) this time when and how asked..
Levi in the south remained because The heart of the law and temple service in the next age remains the exactly same as it always has been since Moses .
and then Judah only remained as promise of the kingdom / the political realms of the reign of that kingdom of David , so the gate keepers , storehouse keepers the keys and guards and such and such all those things it takes to run a kingdom for a king .. all remains with the clan of Judah who was in the south . these too things are about function and not relationship at all.. just servant stuff..
but everything else of Israel it is changing. the land and the people are all changing and the forms of everything else will not be the same for anyone again . the clans of Israel will all be there but they are all made NEW !
and no one gets in unless they repent of the blood on their hands. you know all those hanging and stoning and ???, crucifying and burning a the stake.. and abortions and mankind is one bloody mess after another .
SO yes Judah sure they know the law but do they know the KING ?
and sure they need to study the laws of the politics of the kingdom of David.. but do they know the law giver ? no !
and levites man have got to study Eze temple. after reading it 50 times I still don't understand the" come in" and " go out" parts.. every kingdom in the past did have courts and judges and just laws of protocol. it is not something I can relate something too so I don't understand it . His kingdom will be going worldwide not just that postage stamp , that city/state of His real country... they got to know just the politics of his kingdom ... they have to study the kingdom of David but do they know the king ? do they know the son of David ? NO they don't !
because that kingdom it will come again . because YES a kingdom can be built in one day!! yes and it will be ! well maybe 3 1/2 years..
The levites yes they must study the temple service as their service, as a servant.. because it will start over in the next kingdom , not now.. the temple of the new Israel will come ! because a temple can be built in one day and it will be ! it won't take 3 1/2 years for that, it is already built.
and surprise most of humanity has died , or will die and wake up bam!! in the resurrection and to his new way... do any of us know our parts ? do we even know what we wake up to? .. probably not.. that is the only confusion that is important. not the religious Rites..
Then will all the nations of the world get their promised lands and promised kingdoms. no more thieving lying politicians.. stinkin lying academics and 'intellectuals "usurping every thing true and every thing good .
but every thing else and every one else is changing. except judah= the kingdom and the Levi = the
laws that only remains of the temple service .. everything else does not remain the same.. but those two things stay the same since ancient times .. and if that is your guys business it is not our duties . the rest of us most will have our own business or duties to take care of so leave us alone with your details and I won't bore you with any of ours details .
.. and New Israel will include every flavor of every kind of nation and people and colors and the NEW Israel will be awesome! and no one is going to make any one uniform.. people from all ages of time... and all tribes and all colors and it will be awesome...
and yes it is going to be confusing !!
but only to the confused !!
so don't be confused !
instead enjoy our awesome God! in all his magnificence and in all his faithfulness!! repent for the sins of our ancestors ! NO they weren't perfect! we are not perfect ! but we follow a perfect God.
it is going to be so awesome!
know your part in his plans..
know your details of your job , they aren't boring to you , but will be to everyone else in the world.

Don't Usurp your King or his kingdom or your brothers or any of his people there .. anyone who picks up a stone and starts screaming blasphemy if ain't blasphemy will be bound and thrown out into the darkness outside ..
just because he is wonderful he will get rid of it !
What a conductor he will prove to be , just wait until you see that symphony !! there is no doubts it is going to impress everyone
