Hi all. I just wondered who poke thinks is Gods people?
Christians are God's people:
Galatians 3:29, "If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." Is that simple enough for you?
Romans 9:6 It is not as though God's word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel [descendants of Jacob, Hebrews and Jews] are Israel [God's people].
Jews, who reject Jesus, are Satan's people, John 8:44 . The Church is the true Israel, Ephesians 2:12. God, in Genesis 12, made his promise to Abraham and his seed, Christ, not to Abraham and Jews. Christians are a holy nation (Israel), the chosen people, and a royal priesthood, 1 Peter 2:9.
Isaiah 95:9 "And I [God] will [in the future] bring forth
a seed [Jesus] out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor [Jesus] of my mountains [Israel]: and mine elect [Christians] shall inherit it, and my servants [Christians] shall dwell there [Israel]." The Apostle Paul was
not a descendant of Judah; none of the twelve Apostles are claimed to be descendants of Judah; and, no living Jew (a race of converts and the children of converts) can show that he is a descendant of Judah, so if they claim to be out of Judah, they lie.
