Scripture: Romans 9:6-8; Romans 2:28,29

Greetings Kingdom Citizens
Now I know somebody is saying “Calvin has gone over the deep end with this one” but I urge you to bear with us and let’s see what the scripture says. Now this one will be a eye opener for every born again believer because these scriptures have always been here.

Romans 9:6-8: Not as though the Word of God hath taken none effect. FOR THEY ARE NOT ALL ISRAEL, WHICH ARE OF ISRAEL: NEITHER BECAUSE THEY ARE THE SEED OF ABRAHAM, ARE THEY ALL CHILDREN: BUT, IN ISAAC SHALL THY SEED BE CALLED. THAT IS, THEY WHICH ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE FLESH, THESE ARE NOT THE CHILDREN OF GOD: BUT THE CHILDREN OF THE PROMISE ARE COUNTED FOR THE SEED

Do we see this, Paul is saying that everyone who is naturally born of Israel is not all Israel. He goes on to explain that the children of the flesh (physical, bloodline Israel) are not the children of God but the children of the promise are. In the next message we will see who the children of the promise are. But Paul is making a clear distinction that flesh is flesh and just because you were born naturally into a Jewish family, that does not make you the Israel of God. Now let’s deal now with our topic today, “Who are the true Jews”. Paul tells us!

Romans 2:28,29: For HE IS NOT A JEW, WHICH IS ONE OUTWARDLY; Neither is that circumcision, WHICH IS OUTWARD IN THE FLESH. But HE IS A JEW, WHICH IS ONE INWARDLY; AND CIRCUMCISION IS THAT OF THE HEART, IN THE SPIRIT, AND NOT IN THE LETTER; WHOSE PRAISE IS NOT OF MEN BUT OF GOD.

So a Jew, ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD, is not one who is circumcised outwardly in the flesh (physical Israel). Remember, flesh cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. But it does say that a true Jew, ACCORDING TO THE WORD OF GOD, is one who is circumcised of the heart and in the spirit. With that said, the True Jews are the sons of God. We are the Israel of God because we have been born again into the House of God and make up the Holy Nation of Israel and the Kingdom of God.

In the next message we will begin to wrap this powerful series up with a look at the children of the promise. Paul mentioned it to the church at Rome but he goes into a brief explanation to the church at Galatia.

Peace, Love and Grace from the Father,
Calvin Calhoun, Jr.
