Serious question, very few have given a awnser or theory. IF Yahweh is the God of everyone, why only tell/talk with the Hebrews? Why tell only them his true name and law? Why let the whole rest of the world worship Pagan gods for thousands of years. Most of the worlds cultures have spent more time without knowing his name then hearing of it or more. To only tell one Tribe of people is to doom them to spite. More of my ancestors worshiped Mars and Jupiter then have Jesus or Yaweh. Why let us be Pagan UNTIL the Hebrew passes the law?

@breezelow unknown Not decide how. But know why. The world of Yaweh only makes sense from a Hebrew perspective. It seems to me if he was the God of everyone he ought to have told not EVERYONE,,,but at least someone other then just one group. I'm not here to disrupt nor slander. I'm genuinely interested.
@@wesleywarsmith1113 The GOD of the bible is the GOD of the Children of Israel, ONLY. Exodus 3 v 6. Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God. Matthew 22 v 32. I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. No where in the scriptures does HE says that he is the GOD of all nations.
Seed )you got to come out of the Penis not Spirit !! You Worship Israel GOD in Spirit ( mind ) and (hand ) Duties Jesus Yahosha was an Israelite too ...just Pray that African-Americans are not Hebrews ...lol
“Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew"." (The Jewish Almanac , compiled and edited by Richard Siegel and Carl Rheins (New York, NY: Bantam Books, 1980) p. 3)
Nearly 2000 years of intermarriage, they are mostly European or blended into Middle Eastern tribe's the 12 tribe's would have ceased to exist before 200AD Jerusalem was overthrown in AD 70AD and the inhabitants slain the elect Jew's along with non believing Jew's fled Judea
@YOUR CHRISTIAN HERITAGE - Paul: Rom 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. Paul: Act 22:3 I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
They are not Jewish Those who are of the Christian faith are God's chosen. The unbelieving 'Jews' today are not God's chosen people anymore than an athiest is. Galatians 3 vs 29 "And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abrahams seed, and heirs according to the promise." So it is those who have a belief in Christ. We as Christians, are not under the Law no matter what verses the Sabbatarians use, to twist, to suit their own agenda.
gary smallwood As we know, the two major religions in the world - Christianity and Islam - base themselves on our Torah. Does it make sense to think that the eternal God who knows the future will choose one people, give him Torah and commandments in mighty miracles such as the Sinai Mountains, call him the chosen people, but later regret his election, leave the people he chose, and turn to another people, without doing Again mighty miracles like Mount Sinai status? It makes no sense to claim that Gd would change his mind, abandon his chosen people, or suddenly choose another with no other revelation in Mount Sinai
Romans 9 v 3- 4. For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: 4.Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises. The Apostle Paul's brethren and Kinsmen, " according to the flesh ", who are Israelites. There is NO spiritual Israel.
The Bible clearly says Israel is God's chosen, not the Jews. Who then is Israel? Jesus is Israel! If you are in Christ then you are in Israel, God's chosen. Hosea 11:1 Exodus 4:22
The bible never once says Jesus is Israel, and you're completely twisting Galatians. SINCE Jesus only came for Israel, if one belongs to him it only follows that they're an Israelite, ie Abraham's seed. Read Jeremiah 31:31-37, God makes it clear. The New Covenant was made with the 12 tribes of Israel.
@@doxholiday1372 The Bible does call Jesus the name Israel. According to Matthew (matt.2:15) Jesus fulfilled Hosea 11:1. The New covenant was given to the world, not just the Israelites. "He came to his own and his own received him not, but to those that did receive him, to those he gave the right to become the children of God"-Jn 1:12 Even in the old testament strangers could become one with Israel. Jesus also gives the parable of the wedding supper as proof that everyone is invited to be a member of the kingdom of God. Being a seed of Abraham is not physical, it's spiritual.
Exactly. But we have to swallow this myth. Imagine if I said "There are two types of Irish, one looks like they are from Ireland and the other look Kenyan."
Jeremiah 31 v 35 -36. Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name: 36. If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. The Sun, moon and Stars are still here, so the Children of Israelites will still be his people.
Sadly, Doug Batchelor is doing what he so often does, he proves clearly for all to see that he is 'the king of doublespeak'. He on one hand, essentially brags how he is "part Jew ethnically" as he said when he learned this to be the case from a DNA test, he was "happy to know that is is part Jew." Secondly, pray tell Doug why can't you be objective in the discussion, since you say that you are half-Jew, causing you to say "I don't know if I can be completely objective about this?" What's that have to do with the price of rice? But then as you listen to Doug in this video, he turns right around and says, "a person is only a Jew if he expresses faith and obedience in Jesus." So please quit trying to play the middle of the road. Bottom line is: one's DNA does NOT matter one iota what your nationality or ethnicity is, so drop that nonsensical distraction and red-herring to the truth. Why even broach the fact that you are supposedly 'Jewish' as far as your bloodline? Who cares? You even said that you are "Heinz 57", so why even go there? Newsflash: point of fact, there are NO true Jews on the face of the earth today as far as genetics are concerned due to all the intermarrying over the millennia, particularly after 70 AD. Then subsequently during the Dark ages and furthermore those of Jewish heritage scattered the entirety of the the earth in all directions after World War II. True factoid here. Not long ago a scientist who claims to be Jewish, like Doug does, conducted hundreds of DNA tests of the Palestinians who live in Palestine and he found out that the vast majority of them have far more Jewish blood coursing through their veins than do the people living in the state of Israel who CLAIM to be real Jews but who are actually the offspring of 'Askenazi' Jews and Khazar clans from Europe, i.e. mixed-breed peoples. Go figure. And we all know what is happening right now to the poor innocent Palestinian women, children, elderly and the handicapped who are under not only occupation since 1948 but are being utterly decimated or displaced by the state of Israel since October 7, 2023. Now then, since Pastor Doug claims to be an SDA why does he give short shrift to the CORE SDA doctrine that "the Jewish nation of old was no longer an entity that God deals with as a nation any longer as of the end of the 490 years that occurred in 34 AD"? Btw, that was the fulfilment of Daniel's primo prophecy in Daniel chapter 9:24-27. Doug didn't mention a peep about this key point. Why? That's because truth be told, Done has incrementally and strategically done a 180 on said fundamental doctrine over time, as has been taught by the SDA church since it was founded in 1863. Listen to him. He is in a very subtle way (be wary of subtleties, friend) positing "in so many words", that 'the state of Israel' set up NOT by God but by the dark forces of Zionism (the counterfeit Israel) in 1948, (is at least partially STILL God's Israel in one way or another.) Huh? But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Mr. Batchelor. Doug, I call to your attention a verse that may I submit, has YOUR name written all over it: In 1 Kings 18:21, Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you halt between two opinions?" Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!

If any other ethnic group said they were Gods chosen people; they would be called a racist. We are all HUMANS, PEOPLE., Children are Children no matter what ethnic group you are.
Since DNA testing didn’t come to be until the 1980’s I don’t see how he or anyone can claim to have ‘Jewish’ ancestry through DNA testing. What is his DNA being compared to for identifiers? A random group of other people claiming to be Jews?
Listen, that DNA test is one of the greatest deceptions that they use to determine people’s biblical lineage. Furthermore, the Most High Yah named our forefather Jacob/Israel/Israelites; but not Jewish/israelis/ashkenazis/khezars.
"For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:"(Hebrews 8:8)
In a nutshell, Christians / "Believers" are "God's Chosen People." Personally, I find this whole thing as silly as watching people argue over the color of Jesus' skin. *lol* Would they only accept him as their Lord and Savior if his skin tone was _just right?_ 😆

Acts.15. 13.14 Simon said how God first visit the Gentiles to taking them for his name Hosea .2. 23 I will say to them which are not my people you are my people and they will say to you are our God Ephesians. 2. 18. 22 you are no more Gentiles and foreigners but fellowcitizens with the saints of God
Isaiah 14 v 2. For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
Jesus, peace be upon him, was a Jew biologically in the sense that he descended from a Jewish family. However, being a Jew is not a religion in itself. He was a true Prophet of God, which means he submitted completely to the Almighty God. That makes him a Muslim which means one who completely submits to God. The name of the religion is Islam, which means submission to God. The religion of all the Prophets of God, starting with the first Prophet, Adam and ending with the last Prophet, Muhammad, peace be upon them all, was Islam. When Jesus, peace be upon him, came about 2000 years ago, his people, the Jews became divided into three groups. One group of Jews refused to accept him as a Prophet of God. They went out of Islam starting a new religion called Judaism. Another group of Jews started calling him the son of God. They also went out of Islam forming a new religion called Christianity. The third group of Jews believed Jesus, peace be upon him, was a prophet of God. This group of Jews were the Muslims of that time. These were the true followers of the message of Jesus, peace be upon him. In other words both Judaism and Christianity started about 2000 years ago. The most amazing thing is that millions of American Christians consider Jews to be the chosen people who don’t even believe that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a true prophet of God. They believe him to be a false prophet. On the other hand they oppose Muslims who believe that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a true prophet, born of virgin birth and will return to earth before the end of times. Just think what he will say to Christians who believe that Jews are chosen people.
Our salvation is in Jesus Christ alone. Believe on Him and you will be saved. But the Christian walk doesn’t stop there, Paul writes we are to die daily, taking up our cross and denying our flesh. The Bible says be a doer of the word and not just a hearer only. We are to produce fruit and develop the character of Christ. John 14:15 “If you love me you will keep my commandments” commandment #4 starts with the word Remember my sabbath day and KEEP it 🤍. Let us be sealed with with God and set apart from the wold. The hour of judgment is come 🤍 revelation 14:6-12
Read John 10:16 Jews failed as a nation so it was taken away from them. When Jesus left the Temple for the last time He cried for them because of the hardness of their hearts . Ellen White states in the Desire of Ages the very exact sentiments.
God hasn't cast away the Jews. Romans 11:1-2 KJV I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. [2] God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying, (Read all of Rom. 11) Jeremiah 31:37 KJV Thus saith the Lord ; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord . Can any of it be measured? Jeremiah 33:22 KJV As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me. Genesis 13:16 KJV And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. Leviticus 26:44 KJV And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God. Psalm 94:14 KJV For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance. Hebrews 11:11-12 KJV Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. [12] Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
Ellen White and you need to read the Bible. Paul said: Rom 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. Rom 11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.
Paul wrote: Rom 11:1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. Rom 11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.
@Marcel Benjamin so called gentiles goes back to nation of people ..an only israel yr holy bible at home deals with ...You can become a gentile if you follow the ways of heathens ...didnt yahawashi say Proverbs 4:14 [14]Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. An those sheep get your facts right Didn't yahawashi say Matthew 15:24 [24]But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Isaiah 44:1 [1]Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen: An when it come to sheep 2 Chronicles 18:16 [16]Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master; let them return therefore every man to his house in peace. They were Israelites Back to the point the so called gentiles not all but some of them were Israelite stray away from there holy law given to them by Moses through power
Referring to the 10 northern tribes deported from Samaria and Galilee circa 744-721BC. Gentiles is a mistranslation of the word nations - the place God said he would scatter the disobedient Israelites - AMONG THE NATIONS.

The question was are Jews God chosen people? Not can gentiles make it to the kingdom sounds like your double talking not answering the initial question
He said yes and no, because it doesn't matter what race you are, as long as you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior you are apart of God's people. You are a Jew at heart.
They still remain G-d's chosen people, G-d keep his promises to their ancestors. Are you talking about replacement theology? because if you are, then it's wrong.
Я русский, русские - богоизбранный народ, а Россия - это Израиль. И как представитель богоизбранного народа могу сказать, что быть избранным - это больно. Это же подтвердят англосаксы, которые тоже были богоизбранными, и евреи тоже. Причем тут расизм? Быть богоизбранным - это вовсе не про превосходство, а про страдания..
Judah/Jew = Yehuda, Jew's plural = Yehudim. They are one and the same. A Benjaminite, or a Levite, is a Hebrew Israelite, and cannot be from Yehuda. Herodians [who invaded whilst the Jews were away] are Idumeans, not Jews. They all lived in Judea, as Judeans, but still that does not make them Jews.

The reason the collective Jews are no longer chosen is that, they don't currently have a covenant with God. Covenants forms the basis of being chosen as it's through which God have a relationship with Men. They're currently as a collective don't have a relationship with God. They were chosen under the Sinai Covenant but when Christ ushered in the New covenant which is an individual based covenant, the collective Jews were no longer a chosen people.

AND THE TEMPLE WILL BE JESUS NOT SOME MAN-MADE BUILDING. Mathew 21: , Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21But he spake of the temple of his body. 22When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
I agree with this teaching 100% It is really unfortunate that so many others just do not understand this truth. Speaking of being Jewish, can I ask you, Pastor Batchelor, why is it that you do not wear tzitzis? Shabbat shalom
The chosen people are those who encourage goodness and prevent evil, and believe in the Creator. In the past, Prophet Musa's people had that status, but that was in the past. Now many have gone astray.

Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!
RENEGADE MASTERS As we know, the two major religions in the world - Christianity and Islam - base themselves on our Torah. Does it make sense to think that the eternal God who knows the future will choose one people, give him Torah and commandments in mighty miracles such as the Sinai Mountains, call him the chosen people, but later regret his election, leave the people he chose, and turn to another people, without doing Again mighty miracles like Mount Sinai status? It makes no sense to claim that Gd would change his mind, abandon his chosen people, or suddenly choose another with no other revelation in Mount Sinai
“Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew"." (The Jewish Almanac , compiled and edited by Richard Siegel and Carl Rheins (New York, NY: Bantam Books, 1980) p. 3)
Jesus rejected the Jews. He hated them in the end. He called the Jews the children of Satan. He also said of the nation of Israel that after producing no spiritual fruit on the tree of the person "cut it down, why cumbereth it the ground?" He cut off the jews of israel. Like a tree...he cut it down and said why should it waste space on the ground...lets plant something more profitable (the gentiles) in its place. The gentile preachers have far more power than the Jewish ones in my opinion. Jews who follow Jesus and his commandements are saved the same as the gentiles. Now the true jews are those who follow Christ. Doug batcheor is not half jewsih..he is a christian...so he made a mistake in his lesson there...his race is no longer of relevance to God. He is a believer and pastor of Christ so he is no longer Jew or gentile but is one with all Christians of all races. Thanks pastor..
You aren't half Jewish. there is no such thing. you could be admixture Ashkenazim or Sephardim or Mizrahim. By halakha a Jew is born of a Jewish mother or a convert. Is your mom a Jew? If so, proceed to full Jew status! A Jew is "chosen people" represent the ability to share monotheism without forcing conversions or other subjugations/slaveries etc. Jews don't believe in heaven or hell. G-d is not corporeal. Torah is divine origin. oh man, Today is Shavuot. You should go read the ten commandments today! I hope you are able to reclaim your Jewish identity with pride; it is your birthright and heritage. You are right it is not about blood. It is a state of being; wisdom, understanding and knowledge. Don't let non Jews describe your Jewish experience. The reason you are so far away is because you have something great to offer. love light peace!
Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below? Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary? What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. What brings all local churches together into one Body under the blood of Christ? The answer is found below. Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him. He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth. Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by husband unto them, saith the LORD: Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? What did Paul say about Genesis 12:3 in Galatians 3:8, 3:16? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis? Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart. Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead! (John 1:49, Acts 2:36) We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24. 1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 1Jn 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 1Jn 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9. The following verses prove the Holy Spirit is the master teacher for those now in the New Covenant. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Mar 1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Act 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. 1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Jacques Doukhan, Professor of Hebrew at Andrews University published a book released by the Review and Herald titled "Mystery of Israel" he writes, "Scholars have written much about Israel but have done little work on the theology of Israel as such. Too often what they have produced is little more than an opportunity to indulge in sensationalism or a dangerously superficial sketch full of historical and theological confusion and ethical problems. The few Seventh-day Adventist theologies of Israel proposed so far have been lacking in three areas: 1. These theologies of Israel have often adopted the traditional theory of rejection and super-sessionism (God replacing the Jewish with the Church.) without providing serious exegesis of the biblical sources used to support it. 2. The strong apologetic concern of some Seventh-day Adventist theologians and evangelists against the dispensationalist theory has led them to overemphasize the idea of God's rejection of Israel and even at times little, if any, awareness of or sensitivity toward the human reality of the Jewish people and fails to take into account the lessons of history, such as the Holocaust. 3. The teaching of rejection of the Jewish people and replacement Theology is somewhat inconsistent with the specific perspective of Seventh-day Adventist ecclesiology(end-time events). It is not compatible with the Adventist recognition and condemnation of the failure and theological apostasy of the historical church (its oppression toward dissenters, and its rejection of God's law and the Sabbath) and ultimately with the Seventh- Day Adventist prophetic identity and eschatological role toward the church and Israel as the "repairer of the breach."s Indeed, these deficiencies are serious enough to call for further study and reflection on the matter." -Mystery of Israel, pg 8,9 Review & Heralad publishing
A criticism of replacement theology - meanwhile the 12 tribes of Israel have been replaced with "Jews". Repeat after me: REUBEN, SIMEON, LEVI, DAN, GAD, ASHER, ISSACHAR, ZEBULUN, NAPHTALI, JUDAH, JOSEPH AND BENJAMIN. These tribes are the apple of God's eye. “Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew"."

This is the Jerusalem God was talking about. The old Israel and Jerusalem will be burned up along with the old earth. 1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Jesus said, before Abraham I am God (Jesus Christ) before the creation of the world and the universe I am GOD Jesus Christ. Old testament and New testament are One law of GOD JESUS CHRIST.
“For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything ‘chosen’ about them.” Einstein
That's make sense, thank you Pastor for the knowledge.... Even Sam Shamoun and CP(Christian Prince) and others same with that statement as long as you believe Jesus Christ our God, our Savior into our heart(or inner self), we will be saved. You know those guys even Sam whom accused us as heresy to The SDAdventists. They can rebuke us but still only Jesus Christ is the one who judge us. Those guys are Warriors for Christ against Islam and saving many people out of their strange slavery doctrine.
God blessed Jacob [Israel] and the Children of Israel which are the 12 tribes Judah [or the Jews] is just one of the 12 tribes and the only tribe that returned from Babylon plus a few Benjis and Levites. Hence Jesus said "Go ye rather to the lost sheep [tribes] of the House of Israel" who are still scattered abroad.
Judah IS NOT called Jews in the bible, please cease from repeating this falsehood. There isn't a single place in the bible where the tribe of Judah is referred to as Jews, the only people mistakenly called by this name are the citizens of Judaea, the southern kingdom. The southern kingdom was home to many non Israelites, so it's completely false to use the names of Israel, Judah, or any of the tribes as synonyms. Herod is known as a famous Jew yet we know without a doubt that he was an Idumean by descent, a descendant of Jacob's brother Esau and his Canaanite wives.
@YOUR CHRISTIAN HERITAGE In Hebrew Judah is ‘Yehuda’ and the plural ‘Yehudim’ is Jews, as descendants of Judah. The term is somewhat looser today, but that does not make it correct. Paul was born in Turkey of Benjamin stock which does not suddenly make him Yehudim. As a Roman citizen he displayed all the characteristics of a chameleon and liar to suit the prevailing circumstances. Herodian, Pharisee, Jew, Roman, Turkish. Henchman and killer !Even a Nazerite which he was not. I don’t care what your Roman bible says as it was plagiarised by gentiles from Hebrew sources with no understanding of the differences and compiled by the harlot church of Christianity that usurped the truth after killing off the true disciples, rewriting it decades later in Greek and Latin and called them all Jews whether they were or not. Its a book of wheat and tares and thus unreliable in its historical accuracy and content unless you fall for the roman lie that the plagiarising and reworking of man is somehow inspired and infallible ?
@@malcolmdavid722 To think, you had to make all that up so your incorrect theory would make more sense. The truth is Paul was a JUDAEAN because he was a citizen of JUDAEA, which is the word translated Jew, and it's why none of the apostles argued that he wasn't actually one. What you apparently haven't thought about is the fact that he never claimed to be from the tribe of Judah, he openly acknowledged being from the tribe of Benjamin, proving his understanding of a Judaen/Jew was a citizen of Judaea, not the tribe of Judah, or he wouldn't have used the term, and everyone would have called him out and explained why he was wrong. God's chosen people are the 12 tribes of Israel. The kingdom of Israel is the 10 northern tribes, none of which were ever called Judaeans, or Jews. (Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Dan, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Naphtali, Issachar, and Joseph - aka Ephraim and Manasseh) The kingdom of Judah also called Judaea is the southern 2 tribes. (Judah and Benjamin) Both kingdoms were also home to non-Israelite citizens, including but not limited to the Canaanite tribes, Shelanites, and Idumeans. Being a Judaean/Jew tells us nothing about the person' genetic heritage. A Judaean/Jew could be Paul, an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin, or an Idumaean like Herod the Great. (Edomite) I'll leave it to you to look up the accounts of the Israelites allowing Canaanites to stay in Judges 1, but I'm quoting from Josephus, Antiquities of the Judaeans 13.9.1 regarding the assimilation of the nation of Idumea into Judaea circa the end of the 2nd century BC: "Hyrcanus took also Dora and Marissa, cities of Idumea, and subdued all the Idumeans; and permitted them to stay in that country, if they would circumcise their genitals, and make use of the laws of the Jews; and they were so desirous of living in the country of their forefathers, that they submitted to the use of circumcision, and of the rest of the Jewish ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, that they were hereafter no other than Jews." Claiming that one is a Jew and therefore an Israelite is so far removed from reality that it's laughable. For one, I've never seen proof that a single Jew could trace his ancestry unbroken back to ancient Judaea, and even if such proof was given, we'd have to have proof that they were Israelites and not many of the numerous alien nations that lived alongside them. Even in ancient times they had the problem of non Israelites attempting to pass themselves off as God's people, and on numerous occasions had to separate the impostors from their midst. "Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled unto him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very sore. And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing. Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law." -Ezra 10:1-3 If someone in Judaea couldn't be trusted to be from the line of Jacob back then, how much more so people living in distant lands thousands of years after the fact!??
Regardless, we know from the first appearance of the word Jews in 2 Kings 16:5-6 (It isn't used once in the Torah) is that so-called Jews didn't exist until at least a thousand years after the Israelites became a nation, when the 12 tribe kingdom split into 2 separate kingdoms in the Israelite civil war. The kingdom of Israel in the north, home to 10 of the tribes, and the kingdom of Judah in the south, home to the tribes Judah and Benjamin. It's the population of the latter entity that is translated as "Jews" in our bible (but should be JUDAEANS because that's what its people called themselves, and what they were called by others). Those who inserted Jews into our bibles have borne false witness. Those who repeat the error are unknowingly repeating lies at best, and bearing false witness at worst.
Oh, and there's this: “Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew." (The Jewish Almanac , compiled and edited by Richard Siegel and Carl Rheins (New York, NY: Bantam Books, 1980) p. 3) Absolutely correct, and I've explained why. I doubt they would have been so candid had they known the internet would come along. It is what it is.
There is great misconception in this answer!!!i Abraham was a Hebrew and not all Hebrews are Jews!!!! Out of Abraham came twelve tribes through Jacob, a Hebrew but not a Jew. Jacob's name was changed to Israel, hence Yahuah's/God's people, ALL TWELVE TRIBES, came to be called the Israelites all through the Bible. There is a difference between the land of contemporary Israel and spiritual Israel which is the thesis of the Abrahamic promises. Out of ONE TRIBE/Judah do we have the Jews, hence 1/12 th of the Israelites are Jews. If you are a heathen or 'of the nations ' and believe in the Elohim/God of the Israelites then you as a sojourner and through belief are grafted into the House of the Israelites. Read the Book of Ruth! This is what the scriptures teach in the Old Testament, and it is not preached in the pulpits, hence even the elect will be deceived.

Abram Wasn't a Hebrew!, he was a true blue worshipping pagan, born and raised a worshipping pagan, by both of his totally worshipping pagan Parents. That's the point of God choosing him in the first place!!!
Great question! Here is a section of our radio program talking about this subject. May God bless you. - The Amazing Facts team www.amazingfacts.org/media-library/media/e/1160/f/6/t/what-type-of-work-is-allowed-on-the-sabbath-
And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise.~ Galatians 3:29 The Promise God made in Genesis to Abraham is referring to us. Read in Galatians 4 about The two covenants
The King James Bible REALLY is a Book for kings and priests. Revelation 1:6 King James Version 6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Jesus is the KING OF KINGS.
And as God explained numerous times, that kingdom of priests and kings are the children of Israel, which is exactly what Peter was referencing. However, the children of Israel are the 12 tribes, not Jews. Jews is a name that's been injected into bible translations to promote the lie that Jews are God's chosen people rather than the Israelites. "And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him...And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins." -Gen 35:9-11 "And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel." -Exo 19:6 __________________________________________________ “Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an 'Israelite' or a 'Hebrew'." (The Jewish Almanac, 1980, p.3) "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: (House of Israel = the 10 northern tribes, House of Judah = the 2 southern tribes) Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." -Jer 31:31-34 "But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." -Mat 10:6 "But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel." -Mat 15:24 "And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers: Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews." -Act 26:6-7 "Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen." -Rom 9:4-5 "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting." -Jam 1:1
You say if you are a gentile and accept Jesus then you are a jew. Is this the replacement theology that some Baptists teach or do you mean something else?
Such a ridiculous thing to say. First of all, God's people are the 12 tribes of Israel, not Jews. Secondly, the New Covenant was specifically made for and only made for the 12 tribes.
Jesus rejected those who do not accept Him...this goes for everyone. Modern Jews today are mixed race and have not have pure Tribe blood in more than 2,000 years. And white European Jews are Ashkenazi's which are likely from ancient Ukraine or Turkey (Asia Minot). They have no middle eastern blood and so are not descendants of ancient Israel.
So pretty much the Israelites aka jews are not the chosen people anymore, the Christians aka the church are the new chosen people, people who accept Christ are spiritual jews, so that's why theres 12 gates in heaven for the 12 tribes of Israel so it's for the church?
It was always God's purpose to bring the gentiles into the truth. Genesis 12:5 says about Abraham "He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan, and they arrived there." The people "they acquired" means that Abraham and Sarah were winning souls for the Kingdom of God. This means that Abraham was preaching the gospel even before the first Advent. Preaching the Gospel is not a new thing limited only to the New Testament.
For you (Jews) are a holy and set apart people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a special people to Himself out of all the peoples on the face of the earth!!!
@@Soccerboy4Jesus now read Jeremiah chapter 31, the new covenant is still with the HOUSE of Israel - then read Hebrews 8, Jesus is the mediator of the new covenant, then it quotes Jeremiah 31 to show what covenant Jesus is mediator of, then read Romans 11, gentiles are grafted onto the new covenant with Israel/the Jews.
🙂 Quite frankly! As a believer! I see no risk in simply worshiping ONE INFINITE 👆 G∞D! However, based on some books, worshiping cows, Jesus, Buddha, & Idols is very risky!
Matthew 23:37-38 New International Version 37 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. 38 Look, your house is left to you desolate.
Sadly, Doug Batchelor is doing what he so often does, he proves clearly for all to see that he is 'the king of doublespeak'. He on one hand, essentially brags how he is "part Jew ethnically" as he said when he learned this to be the case from a DNA test, he was "happy to know that is is part Jew." Secondly, pray tell Doug why can't you be objective in the discussion, since you say that you are half-Jew, causing you to say "I don't know if I can be completely objective about this?" What's that have to do with the price of rice? But then as you listen to Doug in this video, he turns right around and says, "a person is only a Jew if he expresses faith and obedience in Jesus." So please quit trying to play the middle of the road. Bottom line is: one's DNA does NOT matter one iota what your nationality or ethnicity is, so drop that nonsensical distraction and red-herring to the truth. Why even broach the fact that you are supposedly 'Jewish' as far as your bloodline? Who cares? You even said that you are "Heinz 57", so why even go there? Newsflash: point of fact, there are NO true Jews on the face of the earth today as far as genetics are concerned due to all the intermarrying over the millennia, particularly after 70 AD. Then subsequently during the Dark ages and furthermore those of Jewish heritage scattered the entirety of the the earth in all directions after World War II. True factoid here. Not long ago a scientist who claims to be Jewish, like Doug does, conducted hundreds of DNA tests of the Palestinians who live in Palestine and he found out that the vast majority of them have far more Jewish blood coursing through their veins than do the people living in the state of Israel who CLAIM to be real Jews but who are actually the offspring of 'Askenazi' Jews and Khazar clans from Europe, i.e. mixed-breed peoples. Go figure. And we all know what is happening right now to the poor innocent Palestinian women, children, elderly and the handicapped who are under not only occupation since 1948 but are being utterly decimated or displaced by the state of Israel since October 7, 2023. Now then, since Pastor Doug claims to be an SDA why does he give short shrift to the CORE SDA doctrine that "the Jewish nation of old was no longer an entity that God deals with as a nation any longer as of the end of the 490 years that occurred in 34 AD"? Btw, that was the fulfilment of Daniel's primo prophecy in Daniel chapter 9:24-27. Doug didn't mention a peep about this key point. Why? That's because truth be told, Done has incrementally and strategically done a 180 on said fundamental doctrine over time, as has been taught by the SDA church since it was founded in 1863. Listen to him. He is in a very subtle way (be wary of subtleties, friend) positing "in so many words", that 'the state of Israel' set up NOT by God but by the dark forces of Zionism (the counterfeit Israel) in 1948, (is at least partially STILL God's Israel in one way or another.) Huh? But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Mr. Batchelor. Doug, I call to your attention a verse that may I submit, has YOUR name written all over it: In 1 Kings 18:21, Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you halt between two opinions?" Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!
Israelites (12 children and descendants of prophet Israel) was given responsibility to spread words of God, to act on behalf of God, do good to others. It was conditional. Once they broke the condition, they list every favor and was punished till they repented and came back to original condition which is to worship God alone and follow the commandments. When they tried to kill their Messiah prophet isa/jesus, the last chance as Israelites was done/closed. They lost everything. Now, God has sent His final messenger to Ismaelite/Arab for all humanity. Prophet Mohammad is the way to God now. Must follow him to be in heaven. It is said by God in quran.
Hey, I highly encourage you to researched the dubious origins of Islam. Vowels were not around in Arabic in 693, "his" name was MHMD, closer to Mahmoud today, it means messenger or elevated one. See the original engravings in the dome of the rock, Islam is a heresy based on ruling kings choices to reject trinitarian God head. Not to mention much pulled from the local pagan worship of hubal, brought to them by Mur a traveler who brought baal worship back to mecca. Look at the origins of sun and moon worship. Even Muhammad said to worship al-lat and al-uzza... Later saying he was possessed and that shaytan had mad him convey this message... 200 years later they cover this up and change hadiths accordingly, but enough texts survived to show this is accurate. Islam is a hybrid of local paganism, Christian herersy ("there is no God but God and MHMD is his appointed one"), but also pulls and plagarises from a lot of Jesus's teachings and even old testament. Jesus cannot be a phophet like you say or be "Muslim" because he proclaims he is the son of God, Muhammed said God had no son. Shaytan is being described as being the greatest of deceivers, this is also one of Allah's names. The Quran says Jesus was sinless, will come to judge the dead, was taken up to God and is with him above the heavens, breathed life into a clay dove through the spirit of God, performed many miracles... Yet somehow a lustful and violent man like Muhammed is greater??? This is all from the Quran. Read it again and the read the Bible and tell me how Jesus was a prophet. The Quran says for people of the book to judge by what they have and that it is all correct... Luckily we have many translations pre 700 preserved so any claim of "biblical corruption" is fine by us... We'll just use the one we had when Islam was started... Same version.
No, he didn't, he chose one specific line of Abraham through one of his 8 sons, and one of his many grandsons. And what about Jews? You failed to mention them.
@YOUR CHRISTIAN HERITAGE Please read the entire comment thread, before making extensive replies. "Dox Holiday" said "No, he didn't, he chose one specific line of Abraham through one of his 8 sons, and one of his many grandsons." I was questioning, not stating as fact. I enjoy Doug Batchelor, however not always agreeing or understanding him. As for Abram, God did have plans. Perhaps I am wrong, however I believe the title or word "Jew" was created in the 1800s. God bless.
If they were god's chosen people they wouldn't be one of the smallest religious groups in the world 🤷♀️ I believe all humans are gods chosen people if they choose to follow him
Exodus 3 v 10. Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt. Isaiah 44 v 1. Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen.
John stated that "Even in his own land, and amoung his own people the Jews, he was not accepted. Only a FEW would welcome and accept him. But all who received him, he gave the right to become the CHILDREN of God. All they needed to do was to TRUST HIM to save them". John 1:12. ( 'The living bible'). The bible is clear that a true Jew is "One who is on the INSIDE & not on the OUTSIDE" ( Rom 2:28) Thus the TRUE sons of Abreham are Not those who are his PHYSICAL ancestors but those who display "The FAITH of Abreham" ( Romans 4:16). In Rom 11 Paul is NOT saying that all the 'Zionist', secular Jewish nation will all accept Christ at his return. This is FALSE!

@@PastorBatchelorthe problem is that this so-called pastor is a devil/deceiver himself. Jew(ish)/israelis were NEVER the Most High Yah’s people. They are ashkenazis/khazars/edomites/Esau’s descendants Even the law of nature prohibits grafting two different trees. Furthermore, there’s no such thing as SPIRITUAL ISRAEL.
God chose us in christ. God is not currently choosing on a national. Bases. The blessing of Abraham will come in to force when Israel are redeemed. Then God will bless the earth... We are blessed with christ in the heavenly places eph 1.3 we are called to live with him there for eternity.
Scripture says Israel has already been redeemed, if you're a Christian and you're waiting for AntiChrist Jews to "believe in Jesus" en mass you're going to be waiting a long time. Hasn't 2,000 years shown you anything? THEY'RE NOT GOD'S PEOPLE. The 12 tribes of Israel are.
@@doxholiday1372 I think a remnant will turn to christ, there are prophecies yet to happen in the old testement. Like poeple being ressurected for the thousand year reign. JESUS told the twelve, they will sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel - (not yet happened).
He does have a favorite nation of people. That is the same nation of people that he sent his Son to. Matthew 15 v 24. But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
@@oftin_wong Very nice question. But, HE is GOD . HE can do what he want. No one can question HIM. Romans 9 v 20 - 23. Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? 21.Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour? 22.What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction.
@@peterhua8990I am happy to question god. but for what reason does he choose favourites ? If the architect of everything knows the outcome of everything...why create a favourite and entice problems ? In your own words please
NO they are not, the New Testament makes it emphatically clear that today Christians are God's chosen people: Romans 9:7-8: "For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel, Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham’s children...In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring" "If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise" Galatians 3:29 *But you are a chosen people,* a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light." 1 Peter 2:9 Therefore, as *God’s chosen people,* holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Collosians 3:12.

Serious question, very few have given a awnser or theory. IF Yahweh is the God of everyone, why only tell/talk with the Hebrews? Why tell only them his true name and law? Why let the whole rest of the world worship Pagan gods for thousands of years. Most of the worlds cultures have spent more time without knowing his name then hearing of it or more. To only tell one Tribe of people is to doom them to spite. More of my ancestors worshiped Mars and Jupiter then have Jesus or Yaweh. Why let us be Pagan UNTIL the Hebrew passes the law?

Mr Doug, does this mean that dispensationalism is a false teaching? I've been researching this question..
@breezelow unknown Not decide how. But know why. The world of Yaweh only makes sense from a Hebrew perspective. It seems to me if he was the God of everyone he ought to have told not EVERYONE,,,but at least someone other then just one group. I'm not here to disrupt nor slander. I'm genuinely interested.
@@wesleywarsmith1113 The GOD of the bible is the GOD of the Children of Israel, ONLY. Exodus 3 v 6. Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
Matthew 22 v 32. I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
No where in the scriptures does HE says that he is the GOD of all nations.
Galatians 3:29 King James Version (KJV)

Nearly 2000 years of intermarriage, they are mostly European or blended into Middle Eastern tribe's the 12 tribe's would have ceased to exist before 200AD Jerusalem was overthrown in AD 70AD and the inhabitants slain the elect Jew's along with non believing Jew's fled Judea

Those who are of the Christian faith are God's chosen. The unbelieving 'Jews' today are not God's chosen people anymore than an athiest is. Galatians 3 vs 29 "And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abrahams seed, and heirs according to the promise." So it is those who have a belief in Christ. We as Christians, are not under the Law no matter what verses the Sabbatarians use, to twist, to suit their own agenda.
gary smallwood As we know, the two major religions in the world - Christianity and Islam - base themselves on our Torah. Does it make sense to think that the eternal God who knows the future will choose one people, give him Torah and commandments in mighty miracles such as the Sinai Mountains, call him the chosen people, but later regret his election, leave the people he chose, and turn to another people, without doing Again mighty miracles like Mount Sinai status? It makes no sense to claim that Gd would change his mind, abandon his chosen people, or suddenly choose another with no other revelation in Mount Sinai

The Bible clearly says Israel is God's chosen, not the Jews.
Who then is Israel?
Jesus is Israel! If you are in Christ then you are in Israel, God's chosen.
Hosea 11:1
Exodus 4:22
The bible never once says Jesus is Israel, and you're completely twisting Galatians. SINCE Jesus only came for Israel, if one belongs to him it only follows that they're an Israelite, ie Abraham's seed. Read Jeremiah 31:31-37, God makes it clear. The New Covenant was made with the 12 tribes of Israel.
@@doxholiday1372
The Bible does call Jesus the name Israel. According to Matthew (matt.2:15) Jesus fulfilled Hosea 11:1.
The New covenant was given to the world, not just the Israelites. "He came to his own and his own received him not, but to those that did receive him, to those he gave the right to become the children of God"-Jn 1:12
Even in the old testament strangers could become one with Israel.
Jesus also gives the parable of the wedding supper as proof that everyone is invited to be a member of the kingdom of God.
Being a seed of Abraham is not physical, it's spiritual.
why won't you let people post scriptures that prove they are the anti-Christ.
Show me a real jew and not these European Zionists.
Exactly. But we have to swallow this myth. Imagine if I said "There are two types of Irish, one looks like they are from Ireland and the other look Kenyan."
Revelations chapter 2 verse 9
They were. Not anymore. Read Ephesians.
They never were. Read the entire bible. God's people are the 12 tribes of Israel.
Jeremiah 31 v 35 -36. Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
36. If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
The Sun, moon and Stars are still here, so the Children of Israelites will still be his people.
Sadly, Doug Batchelor is doing what he so often does, he proves clearly for all to see that he is 'the king of doublespeak'. He on one hand, essentially brags how he is "part Jew ethnically" as he said when he learned this to be the case from a DNA test, he was "happy to know that is is part Jew." Secondly, pray tell Doug why can't you be objective in the discussion, since you say that you are half-Jew, causing you to say "I don't know if I can be completely objective about this?" What's that have to do with the price of rice? But then as you listen to Doug in this video, he turns right around and says, "a person is only a Jew if he expresses faith and obedience in Jesus." So please quit trying to play the middle of the road. Bottom line is: one's DNA does NOT matter one iota what your nationality or ethnicity is, so drop that nonsensical distraction and red-herring to the truth. Why even broach the fact that you are supposedly 'Jewish' as far as your bloodline? Who cares? You even said that you are "Heinz 57", so why even go there? Newsflash: point of fact, there are NO true Jews on the face of the earth today as far as genetics are concerned due to all the intermarrying over the millennia, particularly after 70 AD. Then subsequently during the Dark ages and furthermore those of Jewish heritage scattered the entirety of the the earth in all directions after World War II. True factoid here. Not long ago a scientist who claims to be Jewish, like Doug does, conducted hundreds of DNA tests of the Palestinians who live in Palestine and he found out that the vast majority of them have far more Jewish blood coursing through their veins than do the people living in the state of Israel who CLAIM to be real Jews but who are actually the offspring of 'Askenazi' Jews and Khazar clans from Europe, i.e. mixed-breed peoples. Go figure. And we all know what is happening right now to the poor innocent Palestinian women, children, elderly and the handicapped who are under not only occupation since 1948 but are being utterly decimated or displaced by the state of Israel since October 7, 2023. Now then, since Pastor Doug claims to be an SDA why does he give short shrift to the CORE SDA doctrine that "the Jewish nation of old was no longer an entity that God deals with as a nation any longer as of the end of the 490 years that occurred in 34 AD"? Btw, that was the fulfilment of Daniel's primo prophecy in Daniel chapter 9:24-27. Doug didn't mention a peep about this key point. Why? That's because truth be told, Done has incrementally and strategically done a 180 on said fundamental doctrine over time, as has been taught by the SDA church since it was founded in 1863. Listen to him. He is in a very subtle way (be wary of subtleties, friend) positing "in so many words", that 'the state of Israel' set up NOT by God but by the dark forces of Zionism (the counterfeit Israel) in 1948, (is at least partially STILL God's Israel in one way or another.) Huh? But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Mr. Batchelor. Doug, I call to your attention a verse that may I submit, has YOUR name written all over it: In 1 Kings 18:21, Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you halt between two opinions?" Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!
The first mention of Jews in plurality is in (2 Kings 16:6), and the first verse mentioned by name is in (Esther 2:5).

Thank you Pastor for your video. It succinctly describes the chosen people of God. It clears lot of misconceptions.
I love how u come up with so much awesome topics
Since DNA testing didn’t come to be until the 1980’s I don’t see how he or anyone can claim to have ‘Jewish’ ancestry through DNA testing. What is his DNA being compared to for identifiers? A random group of other people claiming to be Jews?
Listen, that DNA test is one of the greatest deceptions that they use to determine people’s biblical lineage. Furthermore, the Most High Yah named our forefather Jacob/Israel/Israelites; but not Jewish/israelis/ashkenazis/khezars.
"For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:"(Hebrews 8:8)
The new covenant in His blood
In a nutshell, Christians / "Believers" are "God's Chosen People." Personally, I find this whole thing as silly as watching people argue over the color of Jesus' skin. *lol* Would they only accept him as their Lord and Savior if his skin tone was _just right?_ 😆

Jesus, peace be upon him, was a Jew biologically in the sense that he descended from a Jewish family. However, being a Jew is not a religion in itself. He was a true Prophet of God, which means he submitted completely to the Almighty God. That makes him a Muslim which means one who completely submits to God. The name of the religion is Islam, which means submission to God.
The religion of all the Prophets of God, starting with the first Prophet, Adam and ending with the last Prophet, Muhammad, peace be upon them all, was Islam.
When Jesus, peace be upon him, came about 2000 years ago, his people, the Jews became divided into three groups. One group of Jews refused to accept him as a Prophet of God. They went out of Islam starting a new religion called Judaism. Another group of Jews started calling him the son of God. They also went out of Islam forming a new religion called Christianity. The third group of Jews believed Jesus, peace be upon him, was a prophet of God. This group of Jews were the Muslims of that time. These were the true followers of the message of Jesus, peace be upon him.
In other words both Judaism and Christianity started about 2000 years ago.
The most amazing thing is that millions of American Christians consider Jews to be the chosen people who don’t even believe that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a true prophet of God. They believe him to be a false prophet. On the other hand they oppose Muslims who believe that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a true prophet, born of virgin birth and will return to earth before the end of times. Just think what he will say to Christians who believe that Jews are chosen people.
No, they are not. They have killed many prophets.
Do you believe you have to keep the sabbath to be saved?
Our salvation is in Jesus Christ alone. Believe on Him and you will be saved. But the Christian walk doesn’t stop there, Paul writes we are to die daily, taking up our cross and denying our flesh. The Bible says be a doer of the word and not just a hearer only. We are to produce fruit and develop the character of Christ. John 14:15 “If you love me you will keep my commandments” commandment #4 starts with the word Remember my sabbath day and KEEP it 🤍. Let us be sealed with with God and set apart from the wold. The hour of judgment is come 🤍 revelation 14:6-12

Jews failed as a nation so it was taken away from them. When Jesus left the Temple for the last time He cried for them because of the hardness of their hearts . Ellen White states in the Desire of Ages the very exact sentiments.
God hasn't cast away the Jews.
Romans 11:1-2 KJV
I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. [2] God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
(Read all of Rom. 11)
Jeremiah 31:37 KJV
Thus saith the Lord ; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord .
Can any of it be measured?
Jeremiah 33:22 KJV
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
Genesis 13:16 KJV
And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
Leviticus 26:44 KJV
And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God.
Psalm 94:14 KJV
For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
Hebrews 11:11-12 KJV
Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. [12] Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

He also said he had other sheep not of this fold. Referring to Gentiles
The gentiles were jews ...they just was discontinued from there heritage
@Marcel Benjamin so called gentiles goes back to nation of people ..an only israel yr holy bible at home deals with ...You can become a gentile if you follow the ways of heathens ...didnt yahawashi say Proverbs 4:14
[14]Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.
An those sheep get your facts right
Didn't yahawashi say Matthew 15:24
[24]But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Isaiah 44:1
[1]Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
An when it come to sheep
2 Chronicles 18:16
[16]Then he said, I did see all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master; let them return therefore every man to his house in peace.
They were Israelites
Back to the point the so called gentiles not all but some of them were Israelite stray away from there holy law given to them by Moses through power
Referring to the 10 northern tribes deported from Samaria and Galilee circa 744-721BC. Gentiles is a mistranslation of the word nations - the place God said he would scatter the disobedient Israelites - AMONG THE NATIONS.
I’m about to start this and certainly interested.
Sadly, Doug Batchelor is doing what he so often does, he proves clearly for all to see that he is 'the king of doublespeak'. He on one hand, essentially brags how he is "part Jew ethnically" as he said when he learned this to be the case from a DNA test, he was "happy to know that is is part Jew." Secondly, pray tell Doug why can't you be objective in the discussion, since you say that you are half-Jew, causing you to say "I don't know if I can be completely objective about this?" What's that have to do with the price of rice? But then as you listen to Doug in this video, he turns right around and says, "a person is only a Jew if he expresses faith and obedience in Jesus." So please quit trying to play the middle of the road. Bottom line is: one's DNA does NOT matter one iota what your nationality or ethnicity is, so drop that nonsensical distraction and red-herring to the truth. Why even broach the fact that you are supposedly 'Jewish' as far as your bloodline? Who cares? You even said that you are "Heinz 57", so why even go there? Newsflash: point of fact, there are NO true Jews on the face of the earth today as far as genetics are concerned due to all the intermarrying over the millennia, particularly after 70 AD. Then subsequently during the Dark ages and furthermore those of Jewish heritage scattered the entirety of the the earth in all directions after World War II. True factoid here. Not long ago a scientist who claims to be Jewish, like Doug does, conducted hundreds of DNA tests of the Palestinians who live in Palestine and he found out that the vast majority of them have far more Jewish blood coursing through their veins than do the people living in the state of Israel who CLAIM to be real Jews but who are actually the offspring of 'Askenazi' Jews and Khazar clans from Europe, i.e. mixed-breed peoples. Go figure. And we all know what is happening right now to the poor innocent Palestinian women, children, elderly and the handicapped who are under not only occupation since 1948 but are being utterly decimated or displaced by the state of Israel since October 7, 2023. Now then, since Pastor Doug claims to be an SDA why does he give short shrift to the CORE SDA doctrine that "the Jewish nation of old was no longer an entity that God deals with as a nation any longer as of the end of the 490 years that occurred in 34 AD"? Btw, that was the fulfilment of Daniel's primo prophecy in Daniel chapter 9:24-27. Doug didn't mention a peep about this key point. Why? That's because truth be told, Done has incrementally and strategically done a 180 on said fundamental doctrine over time, as has been taught by the SDA church since it was founded in 1863. Listen to him. He is in a very subtle way (be wary of subtleties, friend) positing "in so many words", that 'the state of Israel' set up NOT by God but by the dark forces of Zionism (the counterfeit Israel) in 1948, (is at least partially STILL God's Israel in one way or another.) Huh? But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Mr. Batchelor. Doug, I call to your attention a verse that may I submit, has YOUR name written all over it: In 1 Kings 18:21, Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you halt between two opinions?" Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!
The question was are Jews God chosen people? Not can gentiles make it to the kingdom sounds like your double talking not answering the initial question
He said yes and no, because it doesn't matter what race you are, as long as you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior you are apart of God's people. You are a Jew at heart.
@@SuperPackerBOY you unpacked that at super pro efficiency!
the answer is yes. the Torah is immutable. it does not change, there is no addition to it and no subtraction from it. Chosen to share monotheism.
Jews are not and never were God's chosen people. God's people are the 12 tribes of Israel and always will be.
@@doxholiday1372 oo jealousy! the crux of christian antisemitism is jealousy.
soft audio, can't hear your message
They were the old covenant people, the new covenant people are now those who’s faith is in Jesus Christ
They still remain G-d's chosen people, G-d keep his promises to their ancestors. Are you talking about replacement theology? because if you are, then it's wrong.
The entire human race is the Flying Spaghetti Monster’s chosen people
It's racist and supremacist to state that you are the God's chosen.
Я русский, русские - богоизбранный народ, а Россия - это Израиль. И как представитель богоизбранного народа могу сказать, что быть избранным - это больно. Это же подтвердят англосаксы, которые тоже были богоизбранными, и евреи тоже. Причем тут расизм? Быть богоизбранным - это вовсе не про превосходство, а про страдания..
Amen Pastor Doug
Respect to Doug Batchelor for making that clear.
The “Jews” were just one tribe of Jacob/Israel. You keep saying Jew. What about the other 11 tribes ? Gentile=nation. Or ethnos in Greek.
Judah/Jew = Yehuda, Jew's plural = Yehudim. They are one and the same.
A Benjaminite, or a Levite, is a Hebrew Israelite, and cannot be from Yehuda.
Herodians [who invaded whilst the Jews were away] are Idumeans, not Jews.
They all lived in Judea, as Judeans, but still that does not make them Jews.
It's time for me to become Muslim then
Why is that?
big fat NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The reason the collective Jews are no longer chosen is that, they don't currently have a covenant with God. Covenants forms the basis of being chosen as it's through which God have a relationship with Men. They're currently as a collective don't have a relationship with God.
They were chosen under the Sinai Covenant but when Christ ushered in the New covenant which is an individual based covenant, the collective Jews were no longer a chosen people.
I'm still confused.

Revelations chapter 2 verse 9 go research it
AND THE TEMPLE WILL BE JESUS NOT SOME MAN-MADE BUILDING. Mathew 21: , Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21But he spake of the temple of his body. 22When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
Believers are the temple 💯
I agree with this teaching 100%
It is really unfortunate that so many others just do not understand this truth.
Speaking of being Jewish, can I ask you, Pastor Batchelor, why is it that you do not wear tzitzis?
Shabbat shalom
The chosen people are those who encourage goodness and prevent evil, and believe in the Creator. In the past, Prophet Musa's people had that status, but that was in the past. Now many have gone astray.

he is maybe Jewish. talking about christian scriptures.
Read the book 'The Jews and their lies' by Martin Luther
RENEGADE MASTERS As we know, the two major religions in the world - Christianity and Islam - base themselves on our Torah. Does it make sense to think that the eternal God who knows the future will choose one people, give him Torah and commandments in mighty miracles such as the Sinai Mountains, call him the chosen people, but later regret his election, leave the people he chose, and turn to another people, without doing Again mighty miracles like Mount Sinai status? It makes no sense to claim that Gd would change his mind, abandon his chosen people, or suddenly choose another with no other revelation in Mount Sinai
No you Scumbag

@@חןפרץ-ח2ס It makes sense if they end up Crucifying Him after rejecting Him endlessly in the Old Testament.
Jesus rejected the Jews. He hated them in the end. He called the Jews the children of Satan. He also said of the nation of Israel that after producing no spiritual fruit on the tree of the person "cut it down, why cumbereth it the ground?" He cut off the jews of israel. Like a tree...he cut it down and said why should it waste space on the ground...lets plant something more profitable (the gentiles) in its place. The gentile preachers have far more power than the Jewish ones in my opinion. Jews who follow Jesus and his commandements are saved the same as the gentiles. Now the true jews are those who follow Christ. Doug batcheor is not half jewsih..he is a christian...so he made a mistake in his lesson there...his race is no longer of relevance to God. He is a believer and pastor of Christ so he is no longer Jew or gentile but is one with all Christians of all races. Thanks pastor..
You are not directly looking into the camera Doug.
Interesting
You aren't half Jewish. there is no such thing. you could be admixture Ashkenazim or Sephardim or Mizrahim. By halakha a Jew is born of a Jewish mother or a convert. Is your mom a Jew? If so, proceed to full Jew status! A Jew is "chosen people" represent the ability to share monotheism without forcing conversions or other subjugations/slaveries etc. Jews don't believe in heaven or hell. G-d is not corporeal. Torah is divine origin.
oh man, Today is Shavuot. You should go read the ten commandments today! I hope you are able to reclaim your Jewish identity with pride; it is your birthright and heritage. You are right it is not about blood. It is a state of being; wisdom, understanding and knowledge. Don't let non Jews describe your Jewish experience. The reason you are so far away is because you have something great to offer.
love light peace!
Lou.. kosher.
Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below?
Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary?
What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. What brings all local churches together into one Body under the blood of Christ? The answer is found below.
Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him.
He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth.
Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by husband unto them, saith the LORD:
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? What did Paul say about Genesis 12:3 in Galatians 3:8, 3:16? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis?
Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart.
Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead! (John 1:49, Acts 2:36)
We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24.
1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
1Jn 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
1Jn 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9.
The following verses prove the Holy Spirit is the master teacher for those now in the New Covenant.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Mar 1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Act 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
1Jn 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

'Lord Jesus' is just Amazingly Awesome!🙏🏼 ✝
Jacques Doukhan, Professor of Hebrew at Andrews University published a book released by the Review and Herald titled "Mystery of Israel" he writes,
"Scholars have written much about Israel but have done little work on the theology of Israel as such. Too often what they have produced is little more than an opportunity to indulge in sensationalism or a dangerously superficial sketch full of historical and theological confusion and ethical problems. The few Seventh-day Adventist theologies of Israel proposed so far have been lacking in three areas:
1. These theologies of Israel have often adopted the traditional theory of rejection and super-sessionism (God replacing the Jewish with the Church.) without providing serious exegesis of the biblical sources used to support it.
2. The strong apologetic concern of some Seventh-day Adventist theologians and evangelists against the dispensationalist theory has led them to overemphasize the idea of God's rejection of Israel and even at times little, if any, awareness of or sensitivity toward the human reality of the Jewish people and fails to take into account the lessons of history, such as the Holocaust.
3. The teaching of rejection of the Jewish people and replacement Theology is somewhat inconsistent with the specific perspective of Seventh-day Adventist ecclesiology(end-time events). It is not compatible with the Adventist recognition and condemnation of the failure and theological apostasy of the historical church (its oppression toward dissenters, and its rejection of God's law and the Sabbath) and ultimately with the Seventh- Day Adventist prophetic identity and eschatological role toward the church and Israel as the "repairer of the breach."s Indeed, these deficiencies are serious enough to call for further study and reflection on the matter." -Mystery of Israel, pg 8,9 Review & Heralad publishing
A criticism of replacement theology - meanwhile the 12 tribes of Israel have been replaced with "Jews". Repeat after me: REUBEN, SIMEON, LEVI, DAN, GAD, ASHER, ISSACHAR, ZEBULUN, NAPHTALI, JUDAH, JOSEPH AND BENJAMIN. These tribes are the apple of God's eye.
“Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew"."

This is the Jerusalem God was talking about. The old Israel and Jerusalem will be burned up along with the old earth. 1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Only the ones who are born again believers of Jesus Christ.
They stopped being His chosen people after Stephen was stoned, correct?
No
Jesus said, before Abraham I am God (Jesus Christ) before the creation of the world and the universe I am GOD Jesus Christ. Old testament and New testament are One law of GOD JESUS CHRIST.
Proving truth with scripture- thank you Pastor. God bless.
“For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything ‘chosen’ about them.”
Einstein
YOU NEED TO BE LOUDER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's make sense, thank you Pastor for the knowledge....
Even Sam Shamoun and CP(Christian Prince) and others same with that statement as long as you believe Jesus Christ our God, our Savior into our heart(or inner self), we will be saved.
You know those guys even Sam whom accused us as heresy to The SDAdventists.
They can rebuke us but still only Jesus Christ is the one who judge us.
Those guys are Warriors for Christ against Islam and saving many people out of their strange slavery doctrine.
So he dances around it. Acts as if there's a dual covenant . But at the end he admits without Jesus your done. Wow.
God blessed Jacob [Israel] and the Children of Israel which are the 12 tribes
Judah [or the Jews] is just one of the 12 tribes and the only tribe that returned from Babylon plus a few Benjis and Levites. Hence Jesus said "Go ye rather to the lost sheep [tribes] of the House of Israel" who are still scattered abroad.
Judah IS NOT called Jews in the bible, please cease from repeating this falsehood. There isn't a single place in the bible where the tribe of Judah is referred to as Jews, the only people mistakenly called by this name are the citizens of Judaea, the southern kingdom. The southern kingdom was home to many non Israelites, so it's completely false to use the names of Israel, Judah, or any of the tribes as synonyms. Herod is known as a famous Jew yet we know without a doubt that he was an Idumean by descent, a descendant of Jacob's brother Esau and his Canaanite wives.
@YOUR CHRISTIAN HERITAGE
In Hebrew Judah is ‘Yehuda’ and the plural ‘Yehudim’ is Jews, as descendants of Judah. The term is somewhat looser today, but that does not make it correct.
Paul was born in Turkey of Benjamin stock which does not suddenly make him Yehudim. As a Roman citizen he displayed all the characteristics of a chameleon and liar to suit the prevailing circumstances. Herodian, Pharisee, Jew, Roman, Turkish. Henchman and killer !Even a Nazerite which he was not.
I don’t care what your Roman bible says as it was plagiarised by gentiles from Hebrew sources with no understanding of the differences and compiled by the harlot church of Christianity that usurped the truth after killing off the true disciples, rewriting it decades later in Greek and Latin and called them all Jews whether they were or not.
Its a book of wheat and tares and thus unreliable in its historical accuracy and content unless you fall for the roman lie that the plagiarising and reworking of man is somehow inspired and infallible ?
@@malcolmdavid722 To think, you had to make all that up so your incorrect theory would make more sense. The truth is Paul was a JUDAEAN because he was a citizen of JUDAEA, which is the word translated Jew, and it's why none of the apostles argued that he wasn't actually one. What you apparently haven't thought about is the fact that he never claimed to be from the tribe of Judah, he openly acknowledged being from the tribe of Benjamin, proving his understanding of a Judaen/Jew was a citizen of Judaea, not the tribe of Judah, or he wouldn't have used the term, and everyone would have called him out and explained why he was wrong.
God's chosen people are the 12 tribes of Israel.
The kingdom of Israel is the 10 northern tribes, none of which were ever called Judaeans, or Jews. (Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Dan, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Naphtali, Issachar, and Joseph - aka Ephraim and Manasseh)
The kingdom of Judah also called Judaea is the southern 2 tribes. (Judah and Benjamin)
Both kingdoms were also home to non-Israelite citizens, including but not limited to the Canaanite tribes, Shelanites, and Idumeans.
Being a Judaean/Jew tells us nothing about the person' genetic heritage. A Judaean/Jew could be Paul, an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin, or an Idumaean like Herod the Great. (Edomite)
I'll leave it to you to look up the accounts of the Israelites allowing Canaanites to stay in Judges 1, but I'm quoting from Josephus, Antiquities of the Judaeans 13.9.1 regarding the assimilation of the nation of Idumea into Judaea circa the end of the 2nd century BC:
"Hyrcanus took also Dora and Marissa, cities of Idumea, and subdued all the Idumeans; and permitted them to stay in that country, if they would circumcise their genitals, and make use of the laws of the Jews; and they were so desirous of living in the country of their forefathers, that they submitted to the use of circumcision, and of the rest of the Jewish ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, that they were hereafter no other than Jews."
Claiming that one is a Jew and therefore an Israelite is so far removed from reality that it's laughable. For one, I've never seen proof that a single Jew could trace his ancestry unbroken back to ancient Judaea, and even if such proof was given, we'd have to have proof that they were Israelites and not many of the numerous alien nations that lived alongside them.
Even in ancient times they had the problem of non Israelites attempting to pass themselves off as God's people, and on numerous occasions had to separate the impostors from their midst.
"Now when Ezra had prayed, and when he had confessed, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, there assembled unto him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children: for the people wept very sore.
And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.
Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law." -Ezra 10:1-3
If someone in Judaea couldn't be trusted to be from the line of Jacob back then, how much more so people living in distant lands thousands of years after the fact!??
Regardless, we know from the first appearance of the word Jews in 2 Kings 16:5-6 (It isn't used once in the Torah) is that so-called Jews didn't exist until at least a thousand years after the Israelites became a nation, when the 12 tribe kingdom split into 2 separate kingdoms in the Israelite civil war. The kingdom of Israel in the north, home to 10 of the tribes, and the kingdom of Judah in the south, home to the tribes Judah and Benjamin.
It's the population of the latter entity that is translated as "Jews" in our bible (but should be JUDAEANS because that's what its people called themselves, and what they were called by others).
Those who inserted Jews into our bibles have borne false witness. Those who repeat the error are unknowingly repeating lies at best, and bearing false witness at worst.
Oh, and there's this: “Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an "Israelite" or a "Hebrew."
(The Jewish Almanac , compiled and edited by Richard Siegel and Carl Rheins (New York, NY: Bantam Books, 1980) p. 3)
Absolutely correct, and I've explained why.
I doubt they would have been so candid had they known the internet would come along. It is what it is.
There is great misconception in this answer!!!i Abraham was a Hebrew and not all Hebrews are Jews!!!! Out of Abraham came twelve tribes through Jacob, a Hebrew but not a Jew. Jacob's name was changed to Israel, hence Yahuah's/God's people, ALL TWELVE TRIBES, came to be called the Israelites all through the Bible. There is a difference between the land of contemporary Israel and spiritual Israel which is the thesis of the Abrahamic promises. Out of ONE TRIBE/Judah do we have the Jews, hence 1/12 th of the Israelites are Jews. If you are a heathen or 'of the nations ' and believe in the Elohim/God of the Israelites then you as a sojourner and through belief are grafted into the House of the Israelites. Read the Book of Ruth! This is what the scriptures teach in the Old Testament, and it is not preached in the pulpits, hence even the elect will be deceived.
Shalom. I can see you've done your research. Bring it out!!!

Abram Wasn't a Hebrew!, he was a true blue worshipping pagan, born and raised a worshipping pagan, by both of his totally worshipping pagan Parents. That's the point of God choosing him in the first place!!!

The King James Bible REALLY is a Book for kings and priests. Revelation 1:6
King James Version
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Jesus is the KING OF KINGS.
And as God explained numerous times, that kingdom of priests and kings are the children of Israel, which is exactly what Peter was referencing. However, the children of Israel are the 12 tribes, not Jews. Jews is a name that's been injected into bible translations to promote the lie that Jews are God's chosen people rather than the Israelites.
"And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him...And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins." -Gen 35:9-11
"And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel." -Exo 19:6

"Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: (House of Israel = the 10 northern tribes, House of Judah = the 2 southern tribes)
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." -Jer 31:31-34

"Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;

Roman's 1:16-17
You say if you are a gentile and accept Jesus then you are a jew. Is this the replacement theology that some Baptists teach or do you mean something else?
Such a ridiculous thing to say. First of all, God's people are the 12 tribes of Israel, not Jews. Secondly, the New Covenant was specifically made for and only made for the 12 tribes.
Romans 11 says .God has not rejected his people.
Jesus rejected those who do not accept Him...this goes for everyone. Modern Jews today are mixed race and have not have pure Tribe blood in more than 2,000 years. And white European Jews are Ashkenazi's which are likely from ancient Ukraine or Turkey (Asia Minot). They have no middle eastern blood and so are not descendants of ancient Israel.
@@horsingnaturally2244exactly
So pretty much the Israelites aka jews are not the chosen people anymore, the Christians aka the church are the new chosen people, people who accept Christ are spiritual jews, so that's why theres 12 gates in heaven for the 12 tribes of Israel so it's for the church?
12 gates into heaven?
It was always God's purpose to bring the gentiles into the truth. Genesis 12:5 says about Abraham "He took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan, and they arrived there." The people "they acquired" means that Abraham and Sarah were winning souls for the Kingdom of God. This means that Abraham was preaching the gospel even before the first Advent. Preaching the Gospel is not a new thing limited only to the New Testament.
You're making a jump, that is not in the text.
Can anyone explain Deuteronomy 7:6 ?
For you (Jews) are a holy and set apart people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a special people to Himself out of all the peoples on the face of the earth!!!
Old Testament. Covenant with Israel BEFORE the Messiah.
@@Soccerboy4Jesus now read Jeremiah chapter 31, the new covenant is still with the HOUSE of Israel - then read Hebrews 8, Jesus is the mediator of the new covenant, then it quotes Jeremiah 31 to show what covenant Jesus is mediator of, then read Romans 11, gentiles are grafted onto the new covenant with Israel/the Jews.

Sadly, Doug Batchelor is doing what he so often does, he proves clearly for all to see that he is 'the king of doublespeak'. He on one hand, essentially brags how he is "part Jew ethnically" as he said when he learned this to be the case from a DNA test, he was "happy to know that is is part Jew." Secondly, pray tell Doug why can't you be objective in the discussion, since you say that you are half-Jew, causing you to say "I don't know if I can be completely objective about this?" What's that have to do with the price of rice? But then as you listen to Doug in this video, he turns right around and says, "a person is only a Jew if he expresses faith and obedience in Jesus." So please quit trying to play the middle of the road. Bottom line is: one's DNA does NOT matter one iota what your nationality or ethnicity is, so drop that nonsensical distraction and red-herring to the truth. Why even broach the fact that you are supposedly 'Jewish' as far as your bloodline? Who cares? You even said that you are "Heinz 57", so why even go there? Newsflash: point of fact, there are NO true Jews on the face of the earth today as far as genetics are concerned due to all the intermarrying over the millennia, particularly after 70 AD. Then subsequently during the Dark ages and furthermore those of Jewish heritage scattered the entirety of the the earth in all directions after World War II. True factoid here. Not long ago a scientist who claims to be Jewish, like Doug does, conducted hundreds of DNA tests of the Palestinians who live in Palestine and he found out that the vast majority of them have far more Jewish blood coursing through their veins than do the people living in the state of Israel who CLAIM to be real Jews but who are actually the offspring of 'Askenazi' Jews and Khazar clans from Europe, i.e. mixed-breed peoples. Go figure. And we all know what is happening right now to the poor innocent Palestinian women, children, elderly and the handicapped who are under not only occupation since 1948 but are being utterly decimated or displaced by the state of Israel since October 7, 2023. Now then, since Pastor Doug claims to be an SDA why does he give short shrift to the CORE SDA doctrine that "the Jewish nation of old was no longer an entity that God deals with as a nation any longer as of the end of the 490 years that occurred in 34 AD"? Btw, that was the fulfilment of Daniel's primo prophecy in Daniel chapter 9:24-27. Doug didn't mention a peep about this key point. Why? That's because truth be told, Done has incrementally and strategically done a 180 on said fundamental doctrine over time, as has been taught by the SDA church since it was founded in 1863. Listen to him. He is in a very subtle way (be wary of subtleties, friend) positing "in so many words", that 'the state of Israel' set up NOT by God but by the dark forces of Zionism (the counterfeit Israel) in 1948, (is at least partially STILL God's Israel in one way or another.) Huh? But you can't have your cake and eat it too, Mr. Batchelor. Doug, I call to your attention a verse that may I submit, has YOUR name written all over it: In 1 Kings 18:21, Elijah approached all the people and said, “How long will you halt between two opinions?" Make up your mind, Mr. Batchelor. It is not as you said at the top in this vid, "it's yes and no that the Jews are God's people." Amazingly (amazing facts) you indicted yourself by saying "that answer I gave might sound like a politician." You said it. From your lips to God's ears. That's because you are waffling like so many politicians do and it is duplicity which is dishonesty anyway one wants to cut it. And dishonesty is a lie. And by osmosis, what does the Bible say will happen to those who peddle lies? "They will have their part in the lake of fire" says the Word of God. This is ultra-serious business, Doug. Incidentally, during the Civil War a soldier tried to appease both sides by wearing a Confederate top and a pair of Union trousers. Guess what happened? Both sides shot him!
Israelites (12 children and descendants of prophet Israel) was given responsibility to spread words of God, to act on behalf of God, do good to others. It was conditional.
Once they broke the condition, they list every favor and was punished till they repented and came back to original condition which is to worship God alone and follow the commandments.
When they tried to kill their Messiah prophet isa/jesus, the last chance as Israelites was done/closed.
They lost everything.
Now, God has sent His final messenger to Ismaelite/Arab for all humanity.
Prophet Mohammad is the way to God now. Must follow him to be in heaven. It is said by God in quran.
Hey, I highly encourage you to researched the dubious origins of Islam. Vowels were not around in Arabic in 693, "his" name was MHMD, closer to Mahmoud today, it means messenger or elevated one. See the original engravings in the dome of the rock, Islam is a heresy based on ruling kings choices to reject trinitarian God head. Not to mention much pulled from the local pagan worship of hubal, brought to them by Mur a traveler who brought baal worship back to mecca. Look at the origins of sun and moon worship. Even Muhammad said to worship al-lat and al-uzza... Later saying he was possessed and that shaytan had mad him convey this message... 200 years later they cover this up and change hadiths accordingly, but enough texts survived to show this is accurate.
Islam is a hybrid of local paganism, Christian herersy ("there is no God but God and MHMD is his appointed one"), but also pulls and plagarises from a lot of Jesus's teachings and even old testament.
Jesus cannot be a phophet like you say or be "Muslim" because he proclaims he is the son of God, Muhammed said God had no son.
Shaytan is being described as being the greatest of deceivers, this is also one of Allah's names.
The Quran says Jesus was sinless, will come to judge the dead, was taken up to God and is with him above the heavens, breathed life into a clay dove through the spirit of God, performed many miracles... Yet somehow a lustful and violent man like Muhammed is greater??? This is all from the Quran. Read it again and the read the Bible and tell me how Jesus was a prophet. The Quran says for people of the book to judge by what they have and that it is all correct... Luckily we have many translations pre 700 preserved so any claim of "biblical corruption" is fine by us... We'll just use the one we had when Islam was started... Same version.

God chose the Hebrew people before they existed, just Abram.
He had plans for them.
@@brianlakieth Jews are not a race they aren’t black or white 🤣
No, he didn't, he chose one specific line of Abraham through one of his 8 sons, and one of his many grandsons. And what about Jews? You failed to mention them.
@@doxholiday1372 What the heck?(Polite)
Whose 8 sons???
Jews date back to Abraham.
@YOUR CHRISTIAN HERITAGE Please read the entire comment thread, before making extensive replies.
"Dox Holiday" said "No, he didn't, he chose one specific line of Abraham through one of his 8 sons, and one of his many grandsons."
I was questioning, not stating as fact.
I enjoy Doug Batchelor, however not always agreeing or understanding him.
As for Abram, God did have plans.
Perhaps I am wrong, however I believe the title or word "Jew" was created in the 1800s.
God bless.
Eber had two sons. Joktan and Peleg. They are both Hebrew, but TMH chose Peleg.
If they were god's chosen people they wouldn't be one of the smallest religious groups in the world 🤷♀️ I believe all humans are gods chosen people if they choose to follow him
Exodus 3 v 10. Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt.
Isaiah 44 v 1. Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen.
John stated that "Even in his own land, and amoung his own people the Jews, he was not accepted. Only a FEW would welcome and accept him. But all who received him, he gave the right to become the CHILDREN of God. All they needed to do was to TRUST HIM to save them". John 1:12. ( 'The living bible'). The bible is clear that a true Jew is "One who is on the INSIDE & not on the OUTSIDE" ( Rom 2:28) Thus the TRUE sons of Abreham are Not those who are his PHYSICAL ancestors but those who display "The FAITH of Abreham" ( Romans 4:16). In Rom 11 Paul is NOT saying that all the 'Zionist', secular Jewish nation will all accept Christ at his return. This is FALSE!
God chosen people are not the Jews, or Christians or Moslims. The people who live in God are the chosen people, regardless of their ethnic background.

@@PastorBatchelorthe problem is that this so-called pastor is a devil/deceiver himself. Jew(ish)/israelis were NEVER the Most High Yah’s people. They are ashkenazis/khazars/edomites/Esau’s descendants Even the law of nature prohibits grafting two different trees. Furthermore, there’s no such thing as SPIRITUAL ISRAEL.
God chose us in christ. God is not currently choosing on a national. Bases. The blessing of Abraham will come in to force when Israel are redeemed. Then God will bless the earth... We are blessed with christ in the heavenly places eph 1.3 we are called to live with him there for eternity.
Scripture says Israel has already been redeemed, if you're a Christian and you're waiting for AntiChrist Jews to "believe in Jesus" en mass you're going to be waiting a long time. Hasn't 2,000 years shown you anything? THEY'RE NOT GOD'S PEOPLE. The 12 tribes of Israel are.

NO they are not, the New Testament makes it emphatically clear that today Christians are God's chosen people:
Romans 9:7-8:
"For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel, Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham’s children...In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring"
"If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise" Galatians 3:29
*But you are a chosen people,* a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light." 1 Peter 2:9
Therefore, as *God’s chosen people,* holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Collosians 3:12.
