God's Chosen People
God's chosen people are His New Testament Church. God deals with them as INDIVIDUALS. The Bride of Christ are His adopted or placed sons. When Israel recognize Christ and are born-again, the Wedding is over and they are not recognized as sons. God deals with Israel as a NATION after the Gentile Dispensation. Israel is God's SERVANT nation. The 144,000, who born-again as a nation in one day, are the servants of the Bride.
As a man chooses his bride: God chose His Church in love. Whatever her virtues or her past, she has found grace in his sight. The new birth is the Spiritual marriage and they who are joined together by God are redeemed to the day of their redemption. No man can separate Christ and His Bride.
The Jew however, is bound in fear to his people. He exercises the fear of the curse throughout the sphere of religion -- 'I will curse them that curse thee'. He only comprehends works by his own strength and knows nothing of the grace of God. At the slightest provocation they claim persecution and misrepresentation. They have not entered God's rest. This policy succeeds because the Gentiles have been improperly instructed in the Bible and feel somehow the Jews are the 'chosen people'.
Truly Israel was chosen to bring Light to the Gentiles but they failed to walk in that Light, and God removed their Lampstand 2,000 years ago. Since Pentecost, the Church made up of both Jew and Gentile is God's chosen people, called to shine Light to the world. God is Light and we are the children of Light!
God said,'I will establish my covenant between Me and thee and thy SEED after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God'(Genesis 17:7-8).
According to The Jewish Encyclopaedia (1905) Vol. XI p 533, 'Probably 95% of the persons included in estimates of Jewish populations are Ashkenazim'. At least 90% of todays so-called Jews are no more related to Abraham, Isaac, and Israel than the Chinese. They are no more 'Semitic' than an Eskimo. The Encyclopaedia Judaica and the 1993 Encyclopedia Britannica also declare them to be descended from Japheth. Gentiles.
Largely of Turkish extraction these people were never 'strangers' in Egypt or in Palestine, but built an empire in the Caucasus. Their adoption of Judaism (which is Talmudism and not the faith of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob), in AD 740. Like Constantine's 'conversion', this was a political move, designed to maintain their independence from the Islamic Caliph in the East, and the Holy Roman Empire in the West.
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were the fathers of Israel. Statistics estimate the number of Sephardim Jews in the 1960's at 500,000 world-wide; whereas the Ashkenazim or Japhetic self-styled Jew, on the other hand, were about 11 million. According to the 1973 Jewish Encyclopedia, and A. N. Poliak, Professor of Medieval Jewish History, Tel Aviv University, the majority of eastern European Jews are Khazar, and Japhetic in origin, not Semitic. Immigration statistics indicate approximately 90% of the world's so-called, or self-styled 'Jews' living in 42 countries of the world today, are either emigrants from east Europe, or their parents emigrated from eastern Europe.
The Covenant and Promise of God was to 'Abraham and his seed' when as yet Abraham had no seed. We learn from Galatians 3 that seed SINGULAR was Jesus the Messiah and that we become Abraham's seed and joint heirs with Christ by coming into Him through the baptism of the Holy Ghost or new birth.
Once the last elected Seed has been quickened, the Church is finished. God then turns in grace to Abraham's natural seed. NOT to Ashkenazi Jews who aren't even Semitic, or to the Arabs (or even Latvians) who are Semitic. Only the descendants of Jacob who became Israel, will receive the Spiritual Seed of Abraham or faith which is the baptism of the Holy Ghost through the Message of the two prophets of Revelation 11.
If the Jews were really the Old Testament people, which they are not, and the Old Testament can be found among them only with difficulty, and if they were really conscious of a 'mission' for the blessing of all the nations, the very things in which they offend would disappear. Likewise, if you are a Child of God, you will know who you are and not be deceived. strat016.htm
