Are Rabbinical Jews included in God’s chosen people? Does the chosen include ALL Jews no matter what their belief ?
Thanks for the help, I’m just starting to really study the Bible and this is one of those stumpers for me.
Thanks in advance.
this is not really answering your question (sorry) but,
however you view the present relation between the Jewish nation and God,
just remember that those who are** in **Christ Jesus are chosen…
1 Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises
of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Eph 1:4 According as he hath chosen us
in him before the foundation
of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
1Pe 2:4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone (Jesus),
disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
the following prophecy from Isaiah is fulfilled in Christ Jesus:
Mat 12:18-21 Behold my servant (Jesus), whom I have chosen;
my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him,
and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles. 19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall
any man hear his voice in the streets. 20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking
flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory. 21 And in his name
shall the Gentiles trust.
Rev 17:14 for he (Jesus) is Lord of lords, and King of kings:
and they that are with him (Christians) are called, and chosen,
and faithful.
God the Father said of Jesus:
Luk 9:35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying,
“This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him!”
so since Christians are in Christ Jesus, who is The Chosen One,
then we are chosen…in Him.
