Bible says Jews are not God's people

"WHY does the bible say Jews are not God's people?".

[Kofi]

That is a very difficult question. The Bible says Jews are not God's people but Jesus Christ of Nazareth (the begotten Son of God) was a Jew.

Also, the same Bible says "Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God" Which implies, no matter your race, no matter your ethnicity, no matter your gender, no matter who you are or where you are from, If you believe in His name, He gives you the right to become His son or His daughter. This also implies, Jews, voodoo worshipers, Catholics, protestants, etc. who believe in His name automatically become the sons and daughters of the Most High.

The passages are very confusing but I believe we are all His sons and daughters because even as sinners, He still loves us and He cares and provides for us. No human being can survive even a second without the love of God.

The Bible says Jews are not God's people but Jesus Christ of Nazareth (the begotten Son of God) was a Jew.

The Bible tells us that God said to the Jews that if they would obey His voice He would be their God and they would be his people. Most of them did not obey but a very few did. All through history a few would obey God but most would not. Jesus was one of those who obeyed God. Yes Jesus was a Jew but one that obeyed the voice of God. Got it? Now the voice of God again came to the Jews through Jesus, the Word of God, and they rejected it again. Most all of them but there were a few that did not as before. They did not accept the good-news that if they repented God would have mercy on them, forgive their sins and accept them. They did not want to give up their religious system of sacrifice for the payment of their sin instead of accepting God's way of repentance, mercy and forgiveness. Therefore Jesus minced no words and told them who their God was and who the God of their religious system was. THE DEVIL said Jesus. The DEVIL is your God and that is his religion. Who was Jesus speaking to? All the religious leaders and the followers of that system of religion who were most of the Jews. Again very few followed Jesus.

For the life of me I cannot understand why you say that is a very hard question.

You now quote a passage from Paul, not Jesus. You then say, the passages are very confusing. You are very very right. Peter even tells us that in 11Peter 3:16 the writings of Paul are very hard to understand.

By the way, why do you and all church people love to quote Paul rather than study the words of Jesus? Jesus tells it like it is, straightforward and to the point and not with great swelling words of nothingness as Peter says. Your God is the DEVIL. Try to twist that around if you will. Only five words taken to tell the world who most of the Jews are and of whom their religion is of.

I do not think you will ever understand. Why? Because the God of the christian religion is the same God as the Jewish religion. The Jewish God needs blood sacrifice to forgive sins and the christian God required a blood sacrifice in order to forgive sins. If you are a christian you must accept this sacrifice as a payment for your sins. Jesus came to give us an understanding of the TRUE GOD. (1John 5:20) Dump religion and go to Jesus. He will show you the truth and the truth will set you free. Religion will only keep you in bondage and in the dark. Listen to the preachers of religion and you will never understand. Listen to Jesus and you will understand the TRUE GOD.

I have been thinking about this for sometime now and I agree with you. Some of the things you say about religion may sound heretic views to a Christian (like myself) at first but anytime I take time to reflect on some of these things, I see reason in what you say. Some of these passages are very complicating. Here we have Jesus saying "NO". On the other hand Paul says "it is possible". Which one should we take? Of course Jesus cannot be wrong because Paul follows Jesus.

Jesus said "I am the way the truth and the Light. No one goes to the Father except through me". The Jews rejected Jesus which means they can never go to the father and if after all these worship and sacrifices they cannot go to the father, then there is something very wrong somewhere.

I agree with you perfectly that religion cannot bring salvation. Judaism cannot bring salvation because Judaism rejects Jesus. Christianity cannot bring salvation because Christianity is corrupt. Islam cannot bring salvation because Prophet Mohamed cannot save. Voodoo cannot bring salvation because there is no savior in voodoo.

The only part I don't agree with you is concerning Jesus' death and salvation. Jesus' death and resurrection is something I strongly believe. In my opinion, if it is true that Jesus went through all these pain and suffering and died on the cross and then rose again on the third day without remaining at rest, then it implies Jesus died for something and He rose again to fulfill something and that thing for which He died for must be very important because I don't think Jesus would go through the pain for no good reason.

He had the power to escape death in the first place so I don't think He would have gone through all these pain and humiliation if not for a very important reason. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead so people knew Jesus had power over death so I don't think Jesus died and rose again just to show off. There must be a very important reason behind the death and resurrection of Jesus and it makes sense in my opinion to believe that Jesus died for our sins.

You must first understand who Jews are according to the bible. It is not the same as you understand a Jew to be today. A Jew is a person that practices Judaism. Judaism is the practice of spirituality by the Tribe of Judah, also known as the children of light. How many people were in the tribe of Judah? 186,400. Why is this significant? 186,400 mi/sec is the constant speed of light in a vacuum. Jesus said, when thy eye be single, your body will fill with light. What does he mean when thy eye be single? Meditate with the third eye (inner eye). YOU can be a Jew! Jews as we know them today are NOT the Jews of the bible.
