Unbelief in what? Ridiculous explanations of ancient texts?
The scripture Ex 4:22
And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:
Unbelief in what? Ridiculous explanations of ancient texts?
All still over your head.
I, as others here do, recognize the distinctions which the Apostle Paul delineates.
You, on the other hand, blend all scripture together, disregard distinctions and shape a narrative by your made up paradigm.
What I said still stands and you did not repent so you still claim a Jesus with a limited of people in mind and unfinished work.
You don't know what the Lord meant when He said, "It is finished".
I know exactly what he means it is you who does not.
... which plainly demonstrates that you don't comprehend.
That is the equivalent of what you say all along, 'you are wrong', 'it's not about that', blah, blah, blah. You are mocking yourself. What kind of twisted thing is that? You mock yourself.Nuh uh.
Yeppers.Nope, Israel as Biblically defined are those people who descended from Jacob who GOD delivered from bondage in Egypt and their descendants and proselytes.
'All Israel' will be the believing remnant of ethnic Israel who recognize and receive their Messiah and His earthly Davidic Kingdom.
Right, it doesn't mean that every ethnic Israelite will be saved but only a believing remnant which will at that time comprise the nation of Israel.
The Church, the Body of Christ, is not Israel in any shape or form. To say so is a made up concept which is foreign to Scripture.

Yes, He does. He created a whole nation/goy/ethnos from Abraham's grandson, which He called His chosen/bachar/elect/eklektos.
Yes, it does.
The Lord Jesus says that He will send His angels and that they will gather that chosen ethnicity from the four winds at His second coming.
Deu 30:4 If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee:
Deu 30:5 And the LORD thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Christ's blood is the only blood that matters for salvation for both national Israel and the Body of Christ.
His own were of the nation of Israel.
The 'as many' were of the nation of Israel in the context of the verse.
That verse is not referring to anyone other than believers from the nation of Israel.
Rom 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
There is a noticeable difference between Israel and the Election according to Rom 11:7
What then? Israel[Abrahams natural seed] hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded
Now who is Israel in this verse ? Who are the Election in this verse ? Whats the difference ?
Israel in Rom. 11:7 is simply referring to the ethnic jews of national Israel, Abraham's physical descendants;
and which were never the Chosen People of God.
.Now the Election in that same verse, is none other than God's Election of Grace Rom. 11:5, a Chosen Spiritual Nation Eph. 1:4, Abraham's Spiritual Seed, the Seed of Christ Gal. 3:16, 29 which were Freely Justified by His Grace Rom. 3:24
nanja
Correct !
Correct even though they were called nationally Matt 22:14
Exactly.
14 For many are called, but few are chosen. But I must emphasize the called here has nothing to do with salvation, but merely the corporate unity of the physical nation of Israel which would be kept in tact until the Messiah come !
Agree.
.
Yes which is comprised of both elect jews and gentiles which also is called Israel Rom 9:6
6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
Gal 6:16
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
Amen, it's the World of the Israel of God, consisting of both jews and Gentiles, that God Loved John 3:16 and were Promised Salvation, and no others.
Is. 45:17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
What an odd thing to say. Have you ever read the Bible?Israel in Rom. 11:7 is simply referring to the ethnic jews of national Israel, Abraham's physical descendants; and which were never the Chosen People of God.
What an odd thing to say. Have you ever read the Bible?
Have you ?
The Israel in Rom. 11:7, the physical ethnic jews of national Israel, Abraham's physical descendants; they think they are all God's Chosen or Elect People, but they aren't:
"Israel has not obtained that which he seeketh after [Righteousness before God].
"but the Election [God's Elect] hath obtained it".
How ? They obtained it by Faith in Christ: The Faith of God's Elect Titus 1:1.
Now the rest of National Israel, are not God's Chosen People.
So in Rom. 11:7, Paul distinguishes Israel [national] from the Chosen Election of Grace [God's Chosen People Eph. 1:4] which were Promised Salvation Is. 45:17 , which included only a tiny remnant of the ethnic jews Rom. 9:27; "and the rest were blinded" .
