True Israel

[phipps]

The true Israel today.

”Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” (Revelation 14:12).

”Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8).

We have to bring forth fruit, spiritual fruit, in our lives. The spiritual leaders of Israel had beautiful sermons. But Jesus said to them: “
Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also. “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness. Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness” (Matthew 23:26-28).

The Scriptural Marks of True Israel

There are at least 95 Scriptural “birth-marks” describing the TRUE people Israel, by which to identify them during the latter days.

The people of Israel *are* a “racial” group, whatever that means because race isn't even real for real but *true* Israel *are* God’s “chosen people”
The Bible makes clear distinction on there being different people for example: gentiles vs nephilim vs ISRAEL who are the *main* people who God brought out of bondage and the people who descends from Abraham. What would be the need to differentiate differences of people if there was no actual need? Israel was told repeatedly to stop doing what other groups who are different from them were doing.
God calls himself the God *of* Isaac Jacob and Abraham. God's relationship of promise and purpose was fixed for all those who descended from them.
Everyone else has been grafted into *their* promise if they accept Jesus Christ as their savior. That’s the New Testament promise.

The term "Israelite" means "Champion of God", i.e. those who DO God's Will.

In the book of Genesis, we are very plainly told that the descendants of Abraham through Isaac, Jacob/Israel and the sons of Israel, would become "a nation and a company of nations" that would produce kings (Gen. 35:11). And the two sons of Joseph -- Ephraim and Manasseh -- who were later blessed by Israel and upon whom Israel placed his name, were to be God's Two Witnesses (Isa. 43:10-12; Rev. 11), with Ephraim becoming a multitude (commonwealth) of nations (Gen. 48:16-20).

We are also told that the Davidic throne of Israel, and the line of kings descended from David, would remain unbroken, from the time of David throughout human history (Ps. 89:34-36; Jer. 33:17), so that God could give the throne of Israel to Christ, during Christ's Second Coming (Ezek. 21:25-27; Luke 1:31-33).

These prophetic, scriptural descriptions are among dozens and dozens of "marks" identifying the true people Israel so that the entire world can recognize them and see for themselves that the SURE Word of prophecy (2 Peter 1:19-21) and God's promises to Israel have indeed been fulfilled.

The Two Witnesses (Ephraim and Manasseh) have translated the Bible (God's Word) into many of Earth's languages, published the Bible, and delivered it to the rest of the world, also in fulfillment of prophecy. So the Bible has been published to all nations, making it possible for the gentiles to be grafted into true Israel.

Throughout history, Satan has created organized religions who have claimed to be "God's Chosen people", to mislead people away from God. Satan did it first with Talmudic Judaism, which was born in Babylon, incorporated the Idumaean Edomites (the descendants of Esau, whom God said He hates - Mal. 1:3) who crucified Jesus, and in a third mass conversion took in the Khazars, so that today, the overwhelming majority of those who say they are "Jews" are actually Ashkenazis.

Satan then created "Christianity", and fractured it into thousands of different sects/cults/denominations to more effectively divide its followers and conquer them, by teaching and training them to do the exact opposite of what Christ actually teaches, with their made-up doctrines and traditions. Christ plainly stated that He is THE Way (John 14:6), which means NONE of the thousands of different denominations that call themselves "Christian" could possibly be The Strait and Narrow Way that leads to life (Matt. 7:13-14), much less all of them.

Satan then created "Islam", which he also divided into different sects/cults, all of which similarly claim to be "God's chosen people", while promoting their own pagan rites and rituals.

There are, of course, many other organized religions, all of which were created by Satan, but the other religions don't claim to be "God's Chosen people" like the three "Abrahamic" religions do.

As this world grows darker and darker, which it is doing by the day if not by the hour, the TRUE people Israel will come out of these organized religions (Rev. 18:4) to seek The Light of the world Who, exactly as prophesied, is here NOW to gather the "Elect" (Gen. 49:10). And they will learn to sing the "New Song" (Isa. 42:10; Rev. 14:1-4; 15:3), also exactly as prophesied.

It will be God Who chooses His People, NOT people claiming to be "God's chosen".

True. Even in the Old Covenant only the Israelites who had faith and obeyed God were the chosen ones. Those who rejected God as Israelites were also not chosen either. When they disobeyed God, God punished them and they would be taken into captivity for example and be attacked by pagan kingdoms.

You're right that in the New Covenant the Gentiles were grafted into Israel because it was always God's plan that Israel would expand to include Gentiles who accepted Christ too. Israel was chosen to take the gospel to the whole world and Gentiles were to join it and become part of God's people too. Unfortunately the majority In Jesus' Israel, in the true church are mostly Gentiles.

So now in the New Covenant all those that accept Jesus and have faith in Him are Jacob, Isaac and Abraham's heirs too, “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29).

The Israel of God today is the true church of Christ.

The Israel of God are those who are converted, not those who are the lineal descendants of Abraham. Those who are trying to obey God and purify their souls through obedience to the truth are God’s chosen people, His modern Israel.

The word of God through his prophet to those who should yield themselves to Him and observe His law was that they should thenceforth be numbered among spiritual Israel—His church on earth.

Those who hunger and thirst after righteousness were to be numbered among the Israel of God.

Never has the Lord been without true representatives on this earth who have made His interests their own. These witnesses for God are numbered among the spiritual Israel, and to them will be fulfilled all the covenant promises made by Jehovah to His ancient people.

The Israel of God today, the representatives of heaven that make up the true church of Christ, must be strong; for upon them devolves the task of finishing the work that has been committed to man.

”And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God” (Galatians 6:16).

With regard to the REMNANT that have been sealed to be among the few redeemed from the Earth, aka the "Elect", we have Christ's Word that it will NOT be a "church".

Revelation
7:4 And I HEARD the number of them which were sealed: [and there were] sealed an hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
7:5 Of the tribe of Judah [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad [were] sealed twelve thousand.
7:6 Of the tribe of Asher [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Naphtali [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasseh [were] sealed twelve thousand.
7:7 Of the tribe of Simeon [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar [were] sealed twelve thousand.
7:8 Of the tribe of Zebulun [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph/Ephraim [were] sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin [were] sealed twelve thousand.
7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could count (which is why he was told in verse 4), of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the Throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

Revelation 14:1-4
14:1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the Mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty [and] four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
14:2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many "waters", and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
14:3 And they sung as it were a New Song (Isaiah 42:10) before the Throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that "Song" except the hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the Earth.
14:4 These are they which were not corrupted by women; for they are pure. These are they which follow the Lamb wheresoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, [being] the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb (obeying God NOT women).

Most fail to realize that it was prophesied long ago that those "outside the camp" would become worthy to seek the Lord.

Jesus touched on this in His parable regarding the wedding feast when he said the following in Matthew 22:1-14, "And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen."

Many Jews and sadly Christians today claim Jesus never spoke of Gentiles joining Israel. When this parable is shared they simply mock it. But, there is yet another parable Jesus shares and the Word clearly says the Jews knew for a fact He was talking about them.

It says this in Luke 20:9-19, "Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time. And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty. And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty. And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out. Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him. But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them? He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid. And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them."

So many preachers, teachers, politicians and news reporters today declare the Jews are still the chosen people of God because they claim to uplift the Father in Heaven and obey Him. But it is plainly stated here by John that those that deny the Son of God do not have the Father in their hearts or understanding. In fact, the previous verse that leads up to this one says in 1 John 2:22, "Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son."

In context this is speaking of the "many antichrists" that will come upon the world in the last days and as we see here, according to the apostle John, the Jews are in fact being counted in that number.

1 Corinthians 12:3, "Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost."

Looking to the those Jews who declare themselves to be the chosen people of God today as well as throughout their long history; yet if you have ever read the Babylonian Talmud you would know how disgustingly they speak of Jesus Christ, as well as call Him accursed throughout their "sacred" writings. I will not repeat their blasphemous words here of course as many of them are quite vile and vulgar; but the lesser of their evils is when in fact they do declare our Lord, Saviour, Creator and King Jesus "accursed," which then boldly declares they cannot possibly be the chosen people of God. For to deny the Son of God is to declare the Father to be just as evil as their version of Jesus. Seeing how He and His Father are one in agreement, there's no separating the two in loving or hating them.
