The Daily Word of Righteousness

You Are My People, #41

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (Hebrews 1:1,2)

Thousands of Jews have already turned to the Lord Jesus and many have accepted some of the notable heresies of our day, such as the faith and prosperity errors, the Dispensational model of biblical interpretation, and the doctrine of the pre-tribulation rapture of Gentile believers. Apparently they do not understand the Dispensational model, with its pre-tribulation rapture, is anti-Semitic.

The entire Scriptures, from Genesis through Revelation, constitute one whole Divine expression, one revelation from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The whole revealed Word of God is of the greatest significance for the Jews and also for the elect among the Gentiles.

Not because of any righteousness on the part of the Jews, but because of the promise of God, the Divine salvation will return to the land and people of Israel. The Gentiles who humble themselves will find salvation. But those who harden their hearts in pride, insisting that the Gospel of Christ is a Gentile religion, will be swept away in the Divine judgment that is to fill the earth at the end of the present age and the beginning of the next.

Those who today are claiming that God is finished with the Jews, and that the Gentile believers have replaced the Jews in the plan of God, need to repent before the Rock of Israel rolls over them and crushes them. The Lord is still the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Let the Jews rejoice and the Gentiles tremble!

The Jews have had their holocaust. The Gentile holocaust is at hand.

Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; (Romans 2:9)

"Of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile."

The Gentile believers who love and fear God are saying to the Jews: "You are God's people. You do not have to become a Gentile to please God. In His eternal love for the Jewish people, God has prepared a banquet. There is bread on the table. The bread is the flesh of God's Lamb, Christ.

"There is drink on the table. The drink is the blood of God's Lamb, Christ. Whoever will eat this bread and drink from this cup will live forever. Christ will raise him up in the last day.

"There is no need whatever for the Jew to leave his people or his heritage as a Jew. The flesh of Christ is the Jew's bread. The blood of Christ is the Jew's drink. Christ is the Passover Lamb of the Jews.

"The elect Gentiles are guests at the Jew's table.

"You are God's people. The Gentile believers love and serve your Christ. He is the Bridegroom, ready to spread the robe of Divine righteousness over you.

"The Gospel is to the Jew first, and the elect Gentiles will do all in their power to assist you in the days to come, as your God provides the wisdom and strength.

"The true Gentile saints have been persecuted and killed by the religious institutions throughout the Church Age just as you have been. The Gentile elect may, in the closing days of the age, be cast out and slain because of their stand on your behalf and because they will not conform to the desires and ways of the Gentile religionists.

"But your God—and their God—will save us by His all-powerful Glory until together all of God's family sits down together in the Kingdom of God with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

"Shalom, friends." (from You Are My People)
