Well… brothers and sisters, I want to introduce to you a different view as to what you all have been taught for so many years as gospel.
Everything I say is in my opinion and grounded in the whole of the bible. Originally, by the Catholic churches hand, where God has used it as an instrument to deliver to the world such a book.
The big picture as I see it from beginning to the end of the bible is this:
- God created all there is.
- The fall of mankind was part of that creation as stated.
- The judgment of that fall was eternal separation falling on all souls is known as death.
- Then the final execution.
- God created the first parents with the ability to choose from two extremes, good and evil.
- The fall of mankind was due to that ability to choose as found in Genesis 3:22.
- The judgment is the resultant of the the number two above resulting in number 4 below.
- Death finalized.
Now, here is the time line for God saving His creation of which was lost in the process of creation.
Adam and Eve given authority to multiply and subdue the earth and everything on it.
At a predetermined time in human history, God saw fit to introduce to mankind that particular tree withheld back in the book of Genesis 3:22, as the tree of life.
This tree of life is Jesus introduced first by Abraham as a similitude of God the Father and Jesus the Son.
Through the prophets, prophesied the coming of the a Messiah, the Son of God, that would become the Savior of the world, or in other words, the Savior of all mankind lost.
Then came the chosen race to burden the message to the world: the Jews.
The Jews then had the responsibility to tow the line of righteousness in testimony to the world of the truth God of the universe.
The law then was introduced by Moses as the law of laws, mainly to the Jews only.
So far, all stories concern only the Jews and for the Jews, the rest of the world was considered without hope, since they knew not who God was.
Enter Jesus, “in these last days” Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son"…
Jesus then being the true manifestation of the Character of God to humanity, and the true compassion of God in human form came to us as the true Messiah promised as written by the prophets.
The stories of the likes of Noah, Moses, Abraham, Issac, Joshua, Joseph, etc. are similitude’s of Jesus.
In order than for God via His chosen ones, to reach the rest of the world to include them in His salvation of them, God had to have His chosen ones reject the messenger and His message of grace, by having them follow strictly the law of Moses.
By so doing, they were doing the will of God!
Meaning in all of this, that the Jews being faithful to the law must reject any other gospel not given to them by Moses, and kill the messeigneurs.
Why suppose Jesus was accused of blasphemy?
In Summary:
God chose the nation of Israel to do His work of introducing Himself to the world.
Then God had to show the world via the rise and fall of the Jewish nation consistently, as a futile attempt at righteouness required by the law of God.
Hence, only God alone could perform such a feat as that.
Jesus then being a type of a second Adam, a new creation, is technically the beginning of life, for in Him only is there life given to us.
A rebirth of a dead soul of ours is required for entrance into life with Jesus.
Not a rebirth as if going back into our mother’s womb, but a rebirth of our dead spirits as per the first Adam.
So read this next verse: Joh 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
Jesus is of the Jewish decent, and Jesus is our salvation.
So, tying things together we have the nation of Israel suffering the pains for the worlds salvation, as did Jesus.
Why suppose they are hated of all nations?
They will all be saved as you and I are.
The question for them and us is when?
Well, it can happen now, this very instant, by accepting Jesus as your personal Savior by simply asking Him to come into your heart and remake of you into a new creation.
Ref: 2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
So you see, you and any Jewish person can take advantage of it now, but if not, then they will have to wait till life ceases to exist in the flesh to bow at the feet of Jesus.
Hope that helps and hopefully, you all may make a mad dash to your bibles and do some research on your own, letting the Holy Spirit reveal to you according to your ability to digest spiritual food.
In no way do I advocate anybody leaving their chosen religious organization, I understand that the Holy Spirit will lead us to where ever He wants us to go.
Blessings, AJ
