“The Gentiles were foreign Israelites.” “The strangers in the Old Testament were foreign Israelites.” “Salvation is only for Israel, not the other nations”.
Watch the beginning - 1:45. This is an example of the doctrine being that’s being spread.
The gentiles grafted in are Israelites
Here’s a much longer teaching you should watch in order to gain a full understanding of the doctrine:
The Gentiles Are Israelite Foreigners Pt 1of 2
The Gentiles Are Israelite Foreigners Pt 2 of 2
Here’s another teaching (although long). The way he defines verses by using other verses that use the same words is crazy. The way verses are taken out of context is also crazy.
GENTILES GRAFTED IN- Israel United In Christ
Let me just touch on one part of that last video.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 7
AND it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham,
the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of
Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went
up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail
against it.
2 And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is
confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and
the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved
with the wind.
3 Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet
Ahaz, thou, and Shear-jashub thy son, at the end of the
conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller’s
field;
4 And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not,
neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking
firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of
the son of Remaliah.
5 Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have
taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
6 Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a
breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even
the son of Tabeal:
7 Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it
come to pass.
8 For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of
Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years
shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of
Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye
shall not be established.
Verse 8 clearly states that this would take place in sixty-five years. Just based on that alone, you know for a fact that Ephraim not being a people has nothing to do with the northern and southern kingdoms splitting, nor a breaking of marriage between Yahua and any of the tribes. They were already split at the time of this prophecy. You can even determine that from the first verse. And with that being the case, you know for a fact that just because it’s stated that someone “is not a people” it doesn’t mean it’s referring to one of the kingdoms of Israel, or Yahua’s divorce from them.
“that it be not a people” (verse 8): mê·‘ām
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
5971. Am
From amam; a people (as a congregated unit); specifically, a tribe (as those of Israel); hence (collectively) troops or attendants; figuratively, a flock -- folk, men, nation, people. see HEBREW amam
And the root word amam, in this sense, would mean huddling together. Also see: Genesis 48:19.
Is “that it be not a people” in the King James Version the best translation of that verse? How about “broken/shattered/dismantled as a people” or “a broken/shattered/dismantled people” (as a more literal translation)?
Take a look (reading from right to left):
Read the Gesenius' Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon here:
From this, you could definitely say that the overall meaning is that they would no longer be a cohesive group, or functioning group, but it does not say “that it be not a people”.
After watching that last video I can say with confidence that their teachings are scripts written by someone who knows psychology, just like the pastors at Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN).
Okay, you’ve heard the doctrine, now let’s see if it’s true. But first we have to go over something.
GENESIS
CHAPTER 10
NOW these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem,
Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the
flood.
2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and
Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and
Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and
Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their
lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in
their nations.
“Gentiles”: hag·gō·w·yim
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
1471. goy
Rarely (shortened) goy {go'-ee}; apparently from the same root as gevah (in the sense of massing); a foreign nation; hence, a Gentile; also (figuratively) a troop of animals, or a flight of locusts -- Gentile, heathen, nation, people.
see HEBREW gevah
Also see the Gesenius' Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon:
The Strong’s Concordance is not entirely correct on this definition. If you look at every instance of Strong’s number H1471 you’d see that this word is not just in reference to nations other than Israel, it was also used for Israel.
Further study into this word reveals that it was translated to “Gentiles,” “nations,” “heathen,” and “people”. If you look into it, you’d see that there’s no such thing as “gentile” or “heathen” as we know it, it’s only “a mass of people”. In other words, there’s no such thing as a category, subgroup, or type of nation. And the capitalized “G” in “Gentiles” could not have been in the original text (of course).
Now take a look at Genesis 10:5 again:
GENESIS
CHAPTER 10
2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and
Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and
Togarmah.
4 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and
Dodanim.
5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their
lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in
their nations.
“isles”: ’î·yê
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
339. I
From 'avah; properly, a habitable spot (as desirable); dry land, a coast, an island -- country, isle, island.
see HEBREW 'avah
Also see Gesenius' Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon:
This verse can be interpreted in several ways, but it essentially states that by these—these families, as stated in the previous verses—were the i of the nations/people divided.
Looking at the true definition of the word translated to “gentiles” may change how you see other verses. Here’s one example:
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 42
BEHOLD my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom
my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall
bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will
hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a
covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
It’s actually “nations” (or similar).
The New Testament
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 20
19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to
scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise
again.
“Gentiles”: ethnesin
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
1484. ethnos
Probably from etho; a race (as of the same habit), i.e. A tribe; specially, a foreign (non-Jewish) one (usually, by implication, pagan) -- Gentile, heathen, nation, people.
see GREEK etho
HELPS Word-studies
1484 éthnos (from ethō, "forming a custom, culture") – properly, people joined by practicing similar customs or common culture; nation(s), usually referring to unbelieving Gentiles (non-Jews).
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 12
14 ¶ Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council
against him, how they might destroy him.
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from
thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed
them all;
16 And charged them that they should not make him
known:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias
the prophet, saying,
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in
whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon
him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear
his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall
he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
“Gentiles” in verses 18 and 21 is Strong’s number 1484.
The Greek word selected to describe those who the Israelites called “goy” was “ethnos”. If you look at every instance of this word you will see that it is not in reference to a specific people. And like “goy,” it is translated to “Gentiles,” “nations,” “heathen,” and “people” at will. Examples: Matthew 24:7, 9,14; 28:19. Acts 8:9, 10:22, 13:19. Even in the New Testament “Gentiles,” particularly with a capital “G,” doesn’t exist as most know it. It should be “people,” “nations,” “other nations,” and even “pagan nations” and “heathen nations,” but not “Gentiles”. Furthermore, in the New Testament “ethnos” seems to only refer to non-Israelites, unlike “goy” in the Old Testament.
Okay, with that out of the way, let’s get to it. The gentiles given salvation are foreign Israelites/Israelite foreigners?
Think about this: Did the commandment and statement in Matthew 10:6 and 15:24 (which you should read in context) about “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” pertain to foreign Israelites only, some say the northern kingdom, or all of the children of Israel? If the Mashiach was only sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel, but didn’t go to any foreign nations where foreign Israelites were, then “the house of Israel” would be in reference to all of Israel, unless you’re saying that he only went to foreign Israelites who were staying in the land. And being that he only went to Israelites in the land, “lost” was in reference to spiritually lost. Luke 19:1-10 and 2 Corinthians 4:3 confirms. In Matthew 10:5 and 6 the Mashiach told the apostles to only go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. At that time, they only went to Israelites in the land. So, once again, “the house of Israel” and “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” is not in reference to foreign Israelites/scattered Israel, unless you’re saying that they only went to foreign Israelites who were staying in the land. Furthermore, there are other verses in scripture that show that “the house of Israel” is not a title that is specific to the northern kingdom, as believed by many. See: Exodus 16:31, 40:38; Leviticus 10:6, 17:3, 17:8, 17:10, 22:18; and others.
ROMANS
CHAPTER 15
8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the
circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises
made unto the fathers:
It’s a little different before translation:
So, who was “the circumcision”? The camps, and others, teach that the Mashiach being sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel meant that he was sent to foreign Israelites to restore them back to Israel. That would mean “the circumcision” (who he was a minister of/to, who he was sent to) is in reference to foreign Israelites—the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Being that they are “the circumcision,” who were the uncircumcised? The Israelites who were native to the land and permanently dwelling in the land (since the Mashiach and the apostles didn’t go outside of the land, so foreign Israelites would have had to be in living in the land also)? No, of course not. So, if not them, based on what they say, it would have to be other nations, those who are NOT Israelites, right? Once again: He said he was only sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel; they say the lost sheep of the house of Israel were foreign Israelites; Paul said the Mashiach was the minister of/to the circumcision; so the foreign Israelites would have had to be the circumcision, making non-Israelites the uncircumcised because the Israelites permanently living in the land would have been circumcised. They even came against Paul for issues involving circumcision. In short, people who teach this doctrine are saying themselves that the uncircumcised are non-Israelites. What are they going to say now, the Israelites in the land were the uncircumcised? If they had a chance, they would probably just go with what I said previously about the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
In Acts chapter 10 Peter has a vision which leads him to minister to the gentiles. Some say that these gentiles were foreign Israelites. Some even say that Cornelius was an Israelite.
ACTS
CHAPTER 10
THERE was a certain man in Cæsarea called Cornelius, a
centurion of the band called the Italian band,
2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house,
which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God
alway.
3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the
day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto
him, Cornelius.
4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said,
What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and
thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.
5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon,
whose surname is Peter:
6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by
the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.
7 And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was
departed, he called two of his household servants, and a
devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;
8 And when he had declared all these things unto them, he
sent them to Joppa.
9 ¶ On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew
nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray
about the sixth hour:
10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but
while they made ready, he fell into a trance,
11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending
unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four
corners, and let down to the earth:
12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the
earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the
air.
13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any
thing that is common or unclean.
15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time,
What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up
again into heaven.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision
which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which
were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s
house, and stood before the gate,
18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was
surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
19 ¶ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto
him, Behold, three men seek thee.
20 Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them,
doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
21 Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto
him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye
seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come?
22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and
one that feareth God, and of good report among all the
nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel
to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.
23 Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the
morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren
from Joppa accompanied him.
24 And the morrow after they entered into Cæsarea. And
Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his
kinsmen and near friends.
25 And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell
down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also
am a man.
Peter went to Cornelius in Caesarea. Caesarea is in Israel.
Look at this:
“The town was built by Herod the Great about 25–13 BCE as the port city Caesarea Maritima. It served as an administrative center of Judaea Province of the Roman Empire….”
“Caesarea Maritima was built during c. 20–10 BCE near the ruins of a small naval station known as Stratonos pyrgos (Straton's Tower), founded by Straton I of Sidon. It was likely an agricultural storehouse station in its earliest configuration. In 90 BCE, Alexander Jannaeus captured Straton's Tower as part of his policy of developing the shipbuilding industry and enlarging the Hasmonean kingdom. Straton's Tower remained a Jewish settlement for two more generations, until the area became dominated by the Romans in 63 BCE, when they declared it an autonomous city. The pagan city underwent vast changes under Herod the Great, who renamed it Caesarea in honor of the Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus.”
Chapter 10 continued:
27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many
that were come together.
28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an
unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or
come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me
that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon
as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have
sent for me?
Verse 24 states that Cornelius called together his kinsmen and near friends. Verse 27 states that Peter went in and found many people. Verse 28 speaks of this gathering that Cornelius called together as people “of another nation”. In verse 28, “one of another nation” is allophylo, not ethnos.
Read the definitions here:
They would probably try to take “foreign” and “tribe” and say this verse was in reference to foreign Israelites, those from the northern kingdom (“the house of Israel”). That would mean that Peter said, “You know how it is unlawful for a Jew to keep the company of one from a foreign Israelite tribe.” True or false? And they would say that this is what Ephesians 2:11-14 is speaking of. So, allophylo is speaking of Israelites from a foreign tribe, not a people of another ethnic background, correct? And it was unlawful for the house of Judah to keep the company of these Israelites, correct?
Explain this:
ACTS
CHAPTER 2
AND when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were
all with one accord in one place.
5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men,
out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came
together, and were confounded, because that every man
heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to
another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilæans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein
we were born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in
Mesopotamia, and in Judæa, and Cappadocia, in Pontus,
and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of
Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and
proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our
tongues the wonderful works of God.
Now read all of these commentaries:
So, these were foreign Israelites who dwelled there long-term, and foreign Israelites who dwelled there temporarily, some to keep the Feast of Weeks. You know how it is unlawful for a Jew to keep the company of one from a foreign Israelite tribe? Huh? Middle wall of partition? What? These were devout Jews (verse 5) who were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, strangers from the covenants of promise, and without God in the world (Ephesians 2:11)? What? Devout? Clearly, Acts 10:28 is in reference to people of another ethnic background, people who are not Israelites. And that means Peter’s dream is about the inclusion of people from other ethnic backgrounds, those other than Israelites.
Acts chapter 10 continued:
29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon
as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have
sent for me?
30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until
this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and,
behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms
are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose
surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a
tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak
unto thee.
33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well
done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here
present before God, to hear all things that are commanded
thee of God.
34 ¶ Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I
perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
And that’s exactly what we see here, if you look at Cornelius and the others with him as non-Israelites. Or you can see it the other way: Yahua is no respecter of persons, salvation is for the Jew as well as the Jew? Does that make sense? And maybe He’s no respecter of Jewish persons. Maybe that’s what he meant to say.
35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh
righteousness, is accepted with him.
But in every nation those Jews which fear Him…?
“nation”: ethnei – Strong’s number 1484 – ethnos.
36 The word which God sent unto the children of Israel,
preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
37 That word, I say, ye know, which was published
throughout all Judæa, and began from Galilee, after the
baptism which John preached;
38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy
Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and
healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was
with him.
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in
the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and
hanged on a tree:
40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him
openly;
41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before
of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he
rose from the dead.
42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to
testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the
Judge of quick and dead.
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his
name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of
sins.
44 ¶ While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell
on all them which heard the word.
45 And they of the circumcision which believed were
astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the
Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
The circumcised who had gone with Peter were astonished because the Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles/ethnos—those family members and close friends of Cornelius—non-Israelites. Here, they are called “ethnos”.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify
God. Then answered Peter,
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be
baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as
we?
48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of
the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
ACTS
CHAPTER 11
AND the apostles and brethren that were in Judæa heard
that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that
were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst
eat with them.
4 But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and
expounded it by order unto them, saying,
5 I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a
vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great
sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came
even to me:
According to this, the men Peter went to in Caesarea were uncircumcised (verse 3). He kept the company of people from another ethnic background, right? So, these people of another ethnic background were called uncircumcised. In Ephesians 2:11 the uncircumcised are called gentiles/ethnos, just as they are here in Acts 11:1, and in Acts 10:45 (above).
12 And the spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting.
Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we
entered into the man’s house:
13 And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his
house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa,
and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;
14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy
house shall be saved.
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as
on us at the beginning.
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.
17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did
unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I,
that I could withstand God?
18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and
glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles
granted repentance unto life.
19 ¶ Now they which were scattered abroad upon the
persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as
Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to
none but unto the Jews only.
Here we see a statement about Israelite believers preaching to Israelites that lived outside of the land (foreign Israelites).
20 And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene,
which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the
Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.
Some of the believers who preached were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, and when they came to Antioch they preached the gospel to the Grecians.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great
number believed, and turned unto the Lord.
A great number of Grecians believed and turned to the Lord. Let me guess, those Grecians were foreign Israelites too?
Many of these camps teach that the foreign Israelites didn’t have the Law. Nearly all the gentile lands Paul visited had Jews/Israelites there and a synagogue there. This means they had the Law.
ACTS
CHAPTER 15
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them,
which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from
pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things
strangled, and from blood.
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that
preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath
day.
Why would those foreign Israelites be uncircumcised (be the uncircumcision)? Didn’t foreign Israelites go to Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Weeks/Pentecost (Acts chapter 2)? They were uncircumcised? Heck no. They are the uncircumcision? Heck no. And they went to Jerusalem to keep the Feast, but they didn’t have the Law?
EPHESIANS
CHAPTER 2
11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles
in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is
called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens
from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the
covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in
the world:
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off
are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath
broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
That separation came from manmade laws, pride, and false doctrine.
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of
commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in
himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
“ordinances”: dogmasin

From the base of dokeo; a law (civil, ceremonial or ecclesiastical) -- decree, ordinance. see GREEK dokeo
These are the types of laws, or commandments, that came from the people in power. This is not the Torah. And this word is the same word used in Colossians 2:14.
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body
by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar
off, and to them that were nigh.
18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto
the Father.
19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of
God;

CHAPTER 1
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was
preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it,
but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the
Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the
church of God, and wasted it:
14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my
equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous
of the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my
mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among
the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and
blood:

THEN fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem
with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.
2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto
them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but
privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any
means I should run, or had run, in vain.
7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the
uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of
the circumcision was unto Peter;
8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the
apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me
toward the Gentiles:)
9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be
pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they
gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that
we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the
circumcision.
“the heathen”: ethnē – Strong’s number 1484 – ethnos
10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the
same which I also was forward to do.
11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to
the face, because he was to be blamed.
12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with
the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and
separated himself, fearing them which were of the
circumcision.
13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him;
insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their
dissimulation.
14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according
to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all,
If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and
not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live
as do the Jews?
ACTS
CHAPTER 13
NOW there were in the church that was at Antioch certain
prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was
called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which
had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy
Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work
whereunto I have called them.
3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their
hands on them, they sent them away.
4 ¶ So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed
unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word
of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also
John to their minister.
Now they are in Europe (on an island) among Jews/Israelites—foreign Israelites, gentiles to some—and they are preaching in their synagogues (Foreign Israelites didn’t have the Law?).

13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos,
they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from
them returned to Jerusalem.
14 ¶ But when they departed from Perga, they came to
Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the
sabbath day, and sat down.
This Antioch is north of Perga.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the
rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and
brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people,
say on.
16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said,
Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
Men of Israel, and ye that fear God….
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and
exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land
of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
18 And about the time of forty years suffered he their
manners in the wilderness.
19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of
Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham,
and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word
of this salvation sent.
“… children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.” You can’t get any more straightforward than that. They are in an Israelite synagogue in Europe. “Children of the stock of Abraham” would be in reference to the foreign Israelites there. Who are the other people made reference to, the “whosoever among you feareth God”? People who are NOT Israelites!
Before translation it’s a little different:
“Men, brothers, sons of the family/race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, to us….”
27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers,
because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the
prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have
fulfilled them in condemning him.
28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet
desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him,
they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a
sepulchre.
30 But God raised him from the dead:
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up
with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses
unto the people.
38 ¶ Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that
through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of
sins:
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things,
from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is
spoken of in the prophets;
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work
a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise
believe, though a man declare it unto you.
42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the
Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to
them the next sabbath.
What?! I thought the gentiles were foreign Israelites? Here, these Jews are foreign Israelites, so the gentiles who wanted those words preached to them again the next Sabbath were non-Israelties, those not of the stock of Abraham; those who feared God (verse 26). And what’s being preached to them? The Gospel! Salvation is not just for Israelites.
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the
Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas:
who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the
grace of God.
44 ¶ And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city
together to hear the word of God.
They flocked to and gathered around the light.
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled
with envy, and spake against those things which were
spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was
necessary that the word of God should first have been
spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge
yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the
Gentiles.
In this city, the foreign Israelites (“the Israelite foreigners”) rejected the gospel, so Paul and Barnabus turned to … the foreign Israelites (the gentiles)? Huh?
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set
thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for
salvation unto the ends of the earth.
48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and
glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were
ordained to eternal life believed.
Wow. Just like anyone else who is preordained to be saved.
49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all
the region.
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable
women, and the chief men of the city, and raised
persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them
out of their coasts.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them,
and came unto Iconium.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy
Ghost.
At the end of chapter 13 Paul and Barnabas were expelled out of the area and went to Iconium (verse 51).
[pic]
ACTS
CHAPTER 14
AND it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both
together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that
a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks
believed.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and
made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
Paul and Barnabas are in Iconium. They went into the synagogue of the Jews who lived in Iconium, a synagogue of foreign Israelites in Iconium. A great number of foreign Israelites and the Greeks believed. Verse 1 states “both,” showing that there are two distinct groups. So, who were the Greeks? And if you have foreign Israelites who believed, and foreign Israelites who didn’t believe, who were the gentiles in verse 2? In the true reality, not the camp reality, these Greeks were not Israelites.
3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the
Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and
granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held
with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles,
and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them
despitefully, and to stone them,
… both of the gentiles, and also of the Jews (foreign Israelites)….
6 They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe,
cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round
about:
7 And there they preached the gospel.
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 20
17 ¶ And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve
disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,
18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall
be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and
they shall condemn him to death,
19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to
scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise
again.
Who mocked, scourged, and crucified him? The Romans. Here, the Romans are called gentiles.
ACTS
CHAPTER 4
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to
God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which
hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in
them is:
25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why
did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?
26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were
gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou
hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the
Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,
28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel
determined before to be done.
LUKE
CHAPTER 21
20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with
armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21 Then let them which are in Judæa flee to the mountains;
and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let
not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which
are written may be fulfilled.
23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that
give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in
the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be
led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be
trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles
be fulfilled.
This was the prophetic warning about the Roman army destroying the city in 70 A.D. (often misinterpreted as pertaining to this time period). Replace “Gentiles” with “foreign Israelites” and you get … nonsense.
JOHN
CHAPTER 7
32 ¶ The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such
things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief
priests sent officers to take him.
33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with
you, and then I go unto him that sent me.
34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am,
thither ye cannot come.
35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he
go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed
among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
Will he go to the dispersed, the foreign Israelites, among the gentiles, the foreign Israelites? Huh? According to camp doctrine that’s what he said. In reality, here, the dispersed Israelites are dispersed among non-Israelites, exactly what we saw in Paul’s journeys. So, who were the gentiles/ethnos in verse 35? The foreign Israelites are already accounted for so the gentiles have to be non-Israelites.
ACTS
CHAPTER 9
13 Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of
this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at
Jerusalem:
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind
all that call on thy name.
15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a
chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the
Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for
my name’s sake.
“The children of Israel” (verse 15) means all of Israel. So, in verse 15 the gentiles are non-Israelites. That means Saul was a chosen vessel to bear the Mashiach’s name before non-Israelites as well. Now take this understanding and apply it to the previous verses, and others, where Saul is taking the Gospel to people who are called gentiles. Salvation is not just for Israelites.

CHAPTER 24
43 And he took it, and did eat before them.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I
spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things
must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses,
and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it
behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third
day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be
preached in his name among all nations, beginning at
Jerusalem.

to Pamphylia.

went down into Attalia:

been recommended to the grace of God for the work which
they fulfilled.
27 And when they were come, and had gathered the church
together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them,
and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.

Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is
written,
16 After this I will return, and will build again the
tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build
again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and
all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the
Lord, who doeth all these things.
18 Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of
the world.

CHAPTER 8
26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying,
Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth
down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia,
an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the
Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had
come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the
prophet.
29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join
thyself to this chariot.
30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the
prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou
readest?
31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide
me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit
with him.
32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He
was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb
before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and
who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from
the earth.
34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee,
of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some
other man?
35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same
scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain
water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth
hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart,
thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus
Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they
went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch;
and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit
of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no
more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
Clearly, salvation is not just for Israelites.

8 And the next day we that were of Paul’s company
departed, and came unto Cæsarea: and we entered into the
house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven;
and abode with him.
9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did
prophesy.
10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down
from Judæa a certain prophet, named Agabus.
11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul’s girdle,
and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the
Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man
that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands
of the Gentiles.
12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of
that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.

CHAPTER 26
THEN Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak
for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and
answered for himself:
19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto
the heavenly vision:
20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at
Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judæa, and then
to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and
do works meet for repentance.
21 For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and
went about to kill me.
22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto
this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none
other things than those which the prophets and Moses did
say should come:
23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first
that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto
the people, and to the Gentiles.

CHAPTER 28
16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the
prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered
to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.
17 And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the
chief of the Jews together: and when they were come
together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I
have committed nothing against the people, or customs of
our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem
into the hands of the Romans.
18 Who, when they had examined me, would have let me
go, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to
appeal unto Cæsar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation
of.
20 For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you,
and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I
am bound with this chain.
21 And they said unto him, We neither received letters out
of Judæa concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that
came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as
concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken
against.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came
many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and
testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning
Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets,
from morning till evening.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and
some believed not.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they
departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake
the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall
hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and
not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears
are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest
they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears,
and understand with their heart, and should be converted,
and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of
God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed,
and had great reasoning among themselves.

CHAPTER 10
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy
mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we
preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and
with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him
shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the
Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call
upon him.
When it comes to things pertaining to salvation (verses 9-11), there is no difference between Jew and Greek.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall
be saved.
Why? Because He is the Elohim/God of this earth.
ACTS
CHAPTER 17
NOW when they had passed through Amphipolis and
Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a
synagogue of the Jews:
2 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and
three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,
3 Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have
suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus,
whom I preach unto you, is Christ.
4 And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and
Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the
chief women not a few.
5 ¶ But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy,
took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and
gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and
assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out
to the people.
In verse 4, the “some of them” which believed is in reference to the Israelites of Thessalonica, foreign Israelites. You can see this in how this chapter began, and by what’s stated in verse 5—“… but the Jews which believed not….” Now, looking back at verse 4 you see mentioned a great multitude of devout Greeks who believed. Because the believing Jews/Israelites were accounted for (“… some of them believed….”), and the non-believing Jews/Israelites were accounted for (“… but the Jews which believed not….”), you know that these devout Greeks were not Israelites/Jews. So, once again, salvation is not just for Israelites.

CHAPTER 17
10 ¶ And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and
Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the
synagogue of the Jews.
11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in
that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and
searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
12 Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable
women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.
13 But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that
the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came
thither also, and stirred up the people.

concerning the kingdom of God.
9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but
spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed
from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in
the school of one Tyrannus.

manner I have been with you at all seasons,
19 Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with
many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying
in wait of the Jews:
20 And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto
you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly,
and from house to house,

repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus
Christ.

REVELATION
CHAPTER 7
9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no
man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people,
and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb,
clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our
God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and
about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the
throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and
thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto
our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What
are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence
came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to
me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and
have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood
of the Lamb.
What do you think that is symbolic of? Salvation.
15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve
him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the
throne shall dwell among them.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more;
neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall
feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of
waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

CHAPTER 11
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,
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down
thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have
reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not
bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant
according to the election of grace.
6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise
grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no
more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh
for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were
blinded
8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit
of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they
should not hear;) unto this day.
9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a
trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and
bow down their back alway.
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall?
God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come
unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and
the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how
much more their fulness?
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the
apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which
are my flesh, and might save some of them.
15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the
world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the
dead?
16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if
the root be holy, so are the branches.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou,
being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and
with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou
bearest not the root, but the root thee.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I
might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou
standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed
lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on
them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou
continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut
off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be
graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by
nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive
tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural
branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of
this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness
of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There
shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take
away their sins.
28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your
sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the
fathers’ sakes.
29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have
now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through
your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he
might have mercy upon all.
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments,
and his ways past finding out!
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath
been his counseller?
35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be
recompensed unto him again?
36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things:
to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
4 who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
All men! Isn’t that what Isaiah 49:6 (the Tanakh) states also? So, when “Israelites” fight against “gentiles” being saved, they’re fighting against Yahua.
This is for you “teachers” and “elders”:

14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of
God which in Judæa are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have
suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they
have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets,
and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are
contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be
saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon
them to the uttermost.

CHAPTER 1
6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called
you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you,
and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other
gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto
you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach
any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let
him be accursed.
“The strangers in the Old Testament were foreign Israelites.”
We’ve already seen that the other nations are indeed accepted, and that many of verses in the Old Testament that are said to be about foreign Israelites were not, but let’s just clear this up anyway.
I don’t know all the verses being used to make the claim that the strangers were foreign Israelites, but I’m sure they treat it the same way they do the verses on gentiles—some of the verses are speaking of other nations, some are speaking of Israelites.
Here is one example of their teachings. Look at them cherry-pick verses. And listen for the outright lies.

PSALM 39
12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold
not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and
a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
“a stranger”: ḡêr – Strong’s number 1616 – ger.
First of all, start from verse 1 and read it in context, then you’ll get a better feel for what he was saying. Secondly, he said he was a ger with Yahua. And finally, he said all of his fathers were ger too. This shows you, for a fact, that ger does not mean “foreign Israelite”. His fathers, the patriarchs, were not foreign Israelites.
1 CHRONICLES
CHAPTER 29
10 ¶ Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the
congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God
of Israel our father, for ever and ever.
11 Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the
glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the
heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O
LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.
12 Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest
over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine
hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.
13 Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy
glorious name.
14 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be
able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come
of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.
15 For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as
were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow,
and there is none abiding.
“strangers”: ḡê·rîm – Strong’s number 1616 – ger.
David said, “But who am I, and what is my people?” So, David, speaking of himself and Israel, not foreign Israelites, said what’s in verse 15. So, David and Israel were foreign Israelites?
LEVITICUS
CHAPTER 25
AND the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou
shalt fear thy God: for I am the LORD your God.
18 ¶ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my
judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in
safety.
23 ¶ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is
mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
“strangers”: ḡê·rîm – Strong’s number 1616 – ger.
One of the main curses used to identify black people as Israel, Deuteronomy 28:43, can’t be used anymore if what that guy in the video says is true. According to him, foreign Israelites are coming into your land and rising above you. That’s not true. But this is where they’ll switch up and say, “That’s because this is talking about the other nations.”
And try to make sense out of Isaiah 14:1 using that guy’s belief.
Now let’s take a look at this word “stranger”. In the Old Testament there are several different words that have been translated to “stranger”. Because of this, if you want to do a serious study on this matter you have to go back to the Hebrew.
GENESIS
CHAPTER 15
13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed
shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall
serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
“stranger”: ḡêr
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
1616. ger
Or (fully) geyr (gare); from guwr; properly, a guest; by implication, a foreigner -- alien, sojourner, stranger.
see HEBREW guwr
Ger in the Gesenius’ Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon:
A sojourner, stranger, foreigner, a person living out of his own country.
Ger does not mean “foreign Israelite”.
I’m sure there’s some incorrect etymology and translations with these words, but it’s not to the point where I need to thoroughly dissect each one in order to prove my point.
“guwr”:
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
1481. guwr
A primitive root; properly, to turn aside from the road (for a lodging or any other purpose), i.e. Sojourn (as a guest); also to shrink, fear (as in a strange place); also to gather for hostility (as afraid) -- abide, assemble, be afraid, dwell, fear, gather (together), inhabitant, remain, sojourn, stand in awe, (be) stranger, X surely.
This word, in its basic sense, means to “turn aside,” “a turn asider-er,” “sojourn,” “sojourner,” or “dwell with” (to go into/among and remain/tarry).
GENESIS
CHAPTER 23
AND Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years
old: these were the years of the life of Sarah.
2 And Sarah died in Kirjath-arba; the same is Hebron in the
land of Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah,
and to weep for her.
3 ¶ And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake
unto the sons of Heth, saying,
4 I am a stranger and a sojourner with you: give me a
possession of a buryingplace with you, that I may bury my
dead out of my sight.
5 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto
him,
6 Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in
the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall
withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury
thy dead.
7 And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people
of the land, even to the children of Heth.
“a stranger” (verse 4): gêr- – Strong’s number 1616 – ger.
Abraham wasn’t an Israelite! The children of Israel didn’t exist yet! With that being the case, how can ger mean “foreign Israelite”?

19 And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand

watered the flock.
20 And he said unto his daughters, And where is he? why is

21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he
gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
22 And she bare him a son, and he called his name
Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange
land.
“a stranger”: gêr - Strong's number 1616 – ger.
Verse 22 again:
22 And she bare him a son, and he called his name
Gershom: for he said, I have been a stranger in a strange
land.
“strange”: nā·ḵə·rî·yāh
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance
5237. nokri
From neker (second form); strange, in a variety of degrees and applications (foreign, non-relative, adulterous, different, wonderful) -- alien, foreigner, outlandish, strange(-r, woman).
see HEBREW neker
Looking at the Gesenius’ Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon, and the verses this word is used in, it actually means (at its core), or is used when the context denotes, “not my/our/his/your/their own” (“not own”). This is actually different than “strange” or “strange in a variety of degrees and applications.” “Strange,” even in the sense of being foreign, doesn’t capture its true meaning.

“stranger”: han·nā·ḵə·rî – Strong’s number 5237—nokri.

people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do

There are more verses, but you can look into that yourself.

went down upon them when they were by Gibeah, which
belongeth to Benjamin.
15 And they turned aside thither, to go in and to lodge in
Gibeah: and when he went in, he sat him down in a street of
the city: for there was no man that took them into his house
to lodging.
16 ¶ And, behold, there came an old man from his work out
of the field at even, which was also of mount Ephraim; and
he sojourned in Gibeah: but the men of the place were
Benjamites.
17 And when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw a wayfaring
man in the street of the city: and the old man said, Whither
goest thou? and whence comest thou?
18 And he said unto him, We are passing from Beth-lehemjudah
toward the side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I:
and I went to Beth-lehem-judah, but I am now going to the
house of the LORD; and there is no man that receiveth me to
house.
19 Yet there is both straw and provender for our asses; and
there is bread and wine also for me, and for thy handmaid,
and for the young man which is with thy servants: there is
no want of any thing.
20 And the old man said, Peace be with thee; howsoever let
all thy wants lie upon me; only lodge not in the street.

unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and did eat and
drink.

39 ¶ And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen
poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to
serve as a bondservant:
40 But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be
with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:
41 And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his
children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and
unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
42 For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of
the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear
thy God.
44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt
have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of
them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
“heathen”: hag·gō·w·yim – Strong’s number 1471 – goy. In other words, nations that are around you.
45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn
among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that
are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall
be your possession.
“the strangers”: hat·tō·wō·šā·ḇîm – Strong’s number 8453 – toshab. This is the word used for the foreigner in Exodus 12:45 (above) who could not eat the Passover. Is this a type of person/stranger or just another name for one?
Mistranslation?
46 And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your
children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they
shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the
children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with
rigour.
47 ¶ And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and
thy brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself
unto the stranger or sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the
stranger’s family:
Both ger and toshab are used in this verse, and both are translated to “stranger” and “sojourner”.
48 After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of
his brethren may redeem him:
From the very start of Israel becoming a nation, non-Israelites were accepted.

is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.
15 And every soul that eateth that which died of itself, or
that which was torn with beasts, whether it be one of your
own country, or a stranger, he shall both wash his clothes,
and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the even:
then shall he be clean.
LEVITICUS
CHAPTER 20
AND the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever
he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that
sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech;
he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall
stone him with stones.
LEVITICUS
CHAPTER 24
15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying,
Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin.
16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall
surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall
certainly stone him: as well the stranger, as he that is born
in the land, when he blasphemeth the name of the LORD,
shall be put to death.

CHAPTER 29
9 Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them,
that ye may prosper in all that ye do.
10 ¶ Ye stand this day all of you before the LORD your
God; your captains of your tribes, your elders, and your
officers, with all the men of Israel,
11 Your little ones, your wives, and thy stranger that is in
thy camp, from the hewer of thy wood unto the drawer of
thy water:
12 That thou shouldest enter into covenant with the LORD
thy God, and into his oath, which the LORD thy God maketh
with thee this day:
13 That he may establish thee to day for a people unto
himself, and that he may be unto thee a God, as he hath said
unto thee, and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to
Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
14 Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this
oath;
15 But with him that standeth here with us this day before
the LORD our God, and also with him that is not here with
us this day:
So, the nation of Israel was never just the seed of Israel/Jacob.

CHAPTER 31
9 ¶ And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the
priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant
of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel.
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of
every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in
the feast of tabernacles,
11 When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy
God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this
law before all Israel in their hearing.
12 Gather the people together, men, and women, and
children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they
may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the LORD your
God, and observe to do all the words of this law:
13 And that their children, which have not known any
thing, may hear, and learn to fear the LORD your God, as
long as ye
JOSHUA
CHAPTER 8
32 ¶ And he wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law
of Moses, which he wrote in the presence of the children of
Israel.
33 And all Israel, and their elders, and officers, and their
judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the
priests the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of
the LORD, as well the stranger, as he that was born among
them; half of them over against mount Gerizim, and half of
them over against mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of the
LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the
people of Israel.
34 And afterward he read all the words of the law, the
blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the
book of the law.
35 There was not a word of all that Moses commanded,
which Joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel,
with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that
were conversant among them.
1 CHRONICLES
CHAPTER 17
21 And what one nation in the earth is like thy people
Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his own people, to
make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving
out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast
redeemed out of Egypt?
22 For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people
for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.
And from the very start He picked out non-Israelites who had committed themselves to Him to be His people as well.
Rehab, who hid the spies of Israel that spied out Jericho, was accepted among Israel; and not just her, but her whole family.
JOSHUA
CHAPTER 6
22 But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out
the country, Go into the harlot’s house, and bring out
thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto
her.
23 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought
out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren,
and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred,
and left them without the camp of Israel.
24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was
therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of
brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of
the LORD.
25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her
father’s household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in
Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers,
which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
And the nation she lived in previously was a Hamite nation.
Now read about Ebed-Melech the Cushite in Jeremiah 38:1-13 and 39:15-18. How do you think that fits with salvation for non-Israelites?
Take a look at this:
JEREMIAH
CHAPTER 12
14 ¶ Thus saith the LORD against all mine evil neighbours,
that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people
Israel to inherit; Behold, I will pluck them out of their land,
and pluck out the house of Judah from among them.
15 And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them
out I will return, and have compassion on them, and will
bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man
to his land.
16 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the
ways of my people, to swear by my name, The LORD liveth;
as they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall they
be built in the midst of my people.
17 But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and
destroy that nation, saith the LORD.
These next two portions of scripture from 2 Chronicles also show how things were not how some people have made them out to be. When you see “the inhabitants of Jerusalem” (in these verses) it’s referring to non-Israelites.
2 CHRONICLES
CHAPTER 20
2 Then there came some that told Jehoshaphat, saying,
There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond
the sea on this side Syria; and, behold, they be in Hazazontamar,
which is En-gedi.
3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the
LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask help of
the LORD: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to
seek the LORD.
13 And all Judah stood before the LORD, with their little
ones, their wives, and their children.
15 And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of
Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the LORD
unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great
multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
17 Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves,
stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O
Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow
go out against them: for the LORD will be with you.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the
ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell
before the LORD, worshipping the LORD.
2 CHRONICLES
CHAPTER 35
17 And the children of Israel that were present kept the
passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread
seven days.
18 And there was no passover like to that kept in Israel
from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did all the
kings of Israel keep such a passover as Josiah kept, and the
priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel that were
present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
EZEKIEL
CHAPTER 47
22 ¶ And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot
for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that
sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you:
and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the
children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you
among the tribes of Israel.
23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger
sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the
Lord GOD.
If you want to check it:
And with that being the case, this comes into play:
EXODUS
CHAPTER 12
49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the
stranger that sojourneth among you.
EXODUS

21 ¶ Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for
ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of
Egypt.

CHAPTER 10
12 ¶ And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require
of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his
ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with
all thy heart and with all thy soul,
13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his
statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
14 Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the
LORD’s thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
15 Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them,
and he chose their seed after them, even you above all
people, as it is this day.
16 Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be
no more stiffnecked.
17 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of
lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth
not persons, nor taketh reward:
18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and
widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and
raiment.
19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in
the land of Egypt.
What?! Yahua loves the stranger? He gives the stranger food and raiment? Moses commanded them to love the stranger?!
DEUTERONOMY
CHAPTER 27
19 Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the

CHAPTER 3
5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a
swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the
adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that
oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the
fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right,
and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts.
“turn aside”:
The other nations were never excluded by Yah or the Law, only specific nations were. And later on, particularly during the days of the New Testament, other nations were excluded by man-made laws.
ACTS
CHAPTER 10
28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an
unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or
come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me
that I should not call any man common or unclean.
Where in the Law is that stated? Nowhere. This came from those manmade/civil laws the Messiah was fighting against; the laws the leaders were mad at him for not following (i.e. Mark 7:1-9).
Take a look at this:
GENESIS
AND when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD
appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty
God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and
will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him,
saying,
4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou
shalt be a father of many nations.
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy
name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I
made thee.
6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make
nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee
and thy seed after thee in their generations for an
everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed
after thee.
8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the
land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for
an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
9 ¶ And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my
covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their
generations.
10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me
and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among
you shall be circumcised.
11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it
shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among
you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in
the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is
not of thy seed.
13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with
thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant
shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his
foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from
his people; he hath broken my covenant.
Here we see a covenant with a non-Israelite, before there were Israelites. And even people not of Abraham’s seed, but in his house, were brought into the covenant.
To the Israelite community: If this lady in this next video is living righteously, is she your sister? And if you are Torah-only, would she be your sister if she was living righteously and wasn’t a believer? Would she be accepted into this community by most people in this community?

For almost all “Israelites” the answer would be “No”. And some of those would consist of people who would say “Yes” with their mouths but feel the opposite on the inside.
What would happen if she, as a ger, went amongst most people in the Israelite community today, whether in person or online? She would be attacked. “The real Jews are black!” “Do you believe the Messiah was black?” “You’re an Edomite.” “Your time is coming.” In person, she would even risk being physically attacked. In other words, she would be treated with hostility, provoked and excluded from the community! That’s in opposition to, in violation of, the Torah! That’s in opposition to Yah! So, guess who has the problem? Guess who is the problem? And you do know that for a fact, you are guilty because of all of the people you have done this to online and in person? If the Israelites of the Bible were not exempt, how are you exempt? And I hope you know it goes beyond what you believe – every statement you made, every feeling you had, every Facebook post you made, every video you shared, every comment you liked, etc. Everything is taken into consideration. Nothing is passed up.
If you only believed yourself to be “black” and you did that to her, you would be guilty, but believing yourself to be an Israelite and doing that to her makes you extremely guilty.

Did you see the children in the crowd who were being exposed to this? There’s even more online. So, no one’s going to pay for all of this? Is that what you believe?
Just think about what’s being brought on your neighbor or city by allowing these people to teach this crap there, especially if your neighborhood or city is already wicked. Clearly, they need to be removed, even by force.
Imagine being in the Land and that happened. Imagine being in the Land, that happened, and others felt, said, or did nothing in disagreement to it. “But we’re not in the Land.” So, you’re doing this while you are in another land, another country, while you are a stranger yourself? … compounded guilt.
And there’s more …

CHAPTER 25
AND the LORD spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them,
When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the
land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.
18 ¶ Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my
judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in
safety.
23 ¶ The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is
mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.

Now, with all that you seen, consider the extreme racism in Israel today, particularly against Ethiopian Jews and Palestinians (hate, discrimination, violence, murder, racial slurs, forced sterilization, etc.). If you don’t know about it, look into it (if there are any videos left on Youtube). And make sure you see Empire Files: Inside Palestine’s Refugee Camps.

-SonsofYahawah SonsofYahawah-
And what does almost every other person in the Israelite community do about this? Absolutely nothing. So don’t complain when you see persecution and death in whatever forms targeting only black people. You’re begging for it. Prepare a slaughter? The slaughter is already prepared … for you.
People who teach that salvation is only for Israelites, and any other doctrine taking the Yah given right from non-Israelites, truly deserves to die. Think about it, they’re actually keeping people from salvation, and literally leading people into eternal damnation. Is there anything more Satanic than that? It’s like Yahua walking up to a non-Israelite, handing him a Bible and telling him to come join His family and live with Him; and later having a person go up to that person snatch the Bible out of his hand, open the Bible, and cherry-pick verses to “prove” that he can’t be saved; then call him a derogatory name and walk away with the Bible that was just given to him. This is exactly what’s taking place. It’s crazy. It’s suicidal. I don’t see how these people are going to survive. Do you know how much mercy it would take for them to not be killed and sentenced to eternal damnation?! And you who believe it, spread it, “like it” and give it a “thumbs up” (support it) must be suicidal as well. Your life and salvation is hanging by a thread if not already forfeited. All of you, look at what you’ve been doing, the role you’ve been playing! And this is what these camps and others (sellout blacks) are doing to you. But all of this doesn’t even include the constant blasphemy against the Messiah or attacks on Christians, non-Israelite believers, at a time when the entire Luciferian System has been turned against them and is planning on killing them (which, if done, will put blood on your hands). You’re Satan’s little helpers. This community must be the first-fruits of wrath.

CHAPTER 16
20 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron,
saying,
21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that
I may consume them in a moment.
22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God
of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and wilt thou be
wroth with all the congregation?
23 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
24 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from
about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
25 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram;
and the elders of Israel followed him.
26 And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I
pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch
nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins.
JAMES
CHAPTER 3
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we
who teach will be judged with greater strictness.
Don’t you see that these camps, others with similar doctrine, and those controlling them, are going to get you killed? The plan of those who control them is to get you killed in one of their agendas or by Yahua’s wrath. And you want to kill, go to war with, or enslave white people, white citizens (who have done absolutely nothing to you, and almost none of them have done a thing to your ancestors), but won’t even say a word to the black people who are knowing receiving money to deceive you and get you killed (and if anything is going to get you killed, it’s this salvation issue)?
As a people, hasn’t your constant complaint and cry been over slavery and racism? And now some of you want to enslave others, and can’t wait to enslave others. And you’re even racist now! You’re hypocrisy alone must disgust Him (What type of person…?). What country do you live in right now? Not your own. You’re a stranger right now! You truly have to be looked at with amazement.
To those whom this applies: 1. You belong to a people who went through more than two centuries of racism, and they hated it, and complained about it. And now you’re racist! 2. You belong to a people who went through more than two centuries of racism, and they hated it, and complained about it. And you, personally, having not experienced any racism, or certainly not any racism comparable to what they experienced, hate it and complain about … while being racist! “All praises to the Most High.” You must be crazy.

14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of
God which in Judæa are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have
suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they
have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets,
and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are
contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be
saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon
them to the uttermost.
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 23
5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they
make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of
their garments,
6 And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief
seats in the synagogues,
7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men,
Rabbi, Rabbi.
8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even
Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is
your Father, which is in heaven.
10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master,
even Christ.
11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and
he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
13 ¶ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye
neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are
entering to go in.
14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long
prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he
is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than
yourselves.
Examples (take a look, you don’t have to watch):
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye
are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear
beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones,
and of all uncleanness.
28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men,
but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
For all Israelites: Unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of these scribes and Pharisees, you will NOT enter the Promised Land.
“He said He would make a new covenant with the house Judah and the house of Israel, not with Gentiles.”
I agree with a part of that statement.
JEREMIAH
CHAPTER 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:
32 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:
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.
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.
35 ¶ 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.
37 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.
You could argue that this prophecy was, in one fulfillment, for the Israelites being brought back after the Babylonian captivity (Jeremiah 32:40, 50:5; Ezekiel 16:60-62, 20:37). You can read the chapters before and after this to see this. Being exiled and rejected, they had to be received again, hence, a new covenant. And maybe the apostles saw the things taking place during their time as another fulfillment, maybe the true fulfillment, of this prophecy. Throughout the New Testament you can see them interpreting parts of full prophecies as having an additional fulfillment during their time. It’s not wrong, it’s just how things were done. Unknown to most Israelites today, these same apostles who went to preach to the gentiles, also knew that the covenants and the coming of the Messiah was initially for Israelites.

CHAPTER 3
12 ¶ And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people,
Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so
earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we
had made this man to walk?
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the
God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye
delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate,
when he was determined to let him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a
murderer to be granted unto you;
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall
the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like
unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall
say unto you.
23 And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not
hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the
people.
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that
follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise
foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant
which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham,
And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be
blessed.
26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent
him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his
iniquities.

CHAPTER 13
14 ¶ But when they departed from Perga, they came to
Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the
sabbath day, and sat down.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the
rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and
brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people,
say on.
16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said,
Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and
exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land
of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them
David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony,
and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after
mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
23 Of this man’s seed hath God according to his promise
raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
24 When John had first preached before his coming the
baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye
that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after
me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham,
and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word
of this salvation sent.
27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers,
because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the
prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have
fulfilled them in condemning him.
28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet
desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him,
they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a
sepulchre.
30 But God raised him from the dead:
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up
with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses
unto the people.
32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the
promise which was made unto the fathers,
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that
he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the
second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten
thee.
34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead,
now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I
will give you the sure mercies of David.
35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not
suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the
will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and
saw corruption:
37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
38 ¶ Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that
through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of
sins:
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things,
from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is
spoken of in the prophets;
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work
a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise
believe, though a man declare it unto you.

CHAPTER 9
I SAY the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also
bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my
heart.
3 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;
5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the
flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever.
Amen.
ROMANS
CHAPTER 11
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,
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down
thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have
reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not
bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant
according to the election of grace.
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall?
God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come
unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and
the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how
much more their fulness?
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the
apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which
are my flesh, and might save some of them.
15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the
world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the
dead?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of
this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness
of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There
shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take
away their sins.
GALATIANS
CHAPTER 4
NOW I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth
nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed
of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage
under the elements of the world:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent
forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might
receive the adoption of sons.
The epistle to the Hebrews:
HEBREWS
CHAPTER 8
NOW of the things which we have spoken this is the sum:
We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of
the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by
how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant,
which was established upon better promises.
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should
no place have been sought for the second.
8 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:
9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their
fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead
them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not
in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house
of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws
into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be
to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and
every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall
know me, from the least to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their
sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first
old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to
vanish away.
HEBREWS
CHAPTER 9
THEN verily the first covenant had also ordinances of
divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was
the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is
called the sanctuary.
3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called
the Holiest of all;
4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant
overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot
that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables
of the covenant;
5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the
mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests
went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the
service of God.
7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every
year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and
for the errors of the people:
8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the
holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first
tabernacle was yet standing:
9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which
were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make
him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the
conscience;
10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers
washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the
time of reformation.
11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to
come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made
with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own
blood he entered in once into the holy place, having
obtained eternal redemption for us.
13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an
heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of
the flesh:
14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through
the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge
your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new
testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the
transgressions that were under the first testament, they
which are called might receive the promise of eternal
inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be
the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise
it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated
without blood.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the
people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and
of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and
sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God
hath enjoined unto you.
21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle,
and all the vessels of the ministry.
22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood;
and without shedding of blood is no remission.
23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in
the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly
things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
You’re probably wondering, “Where is it stated that other nations are included?” There are many verses that show this, Isaiah 49:6 is one of them. And you can’t deny Isaiah 49:6. From that verse, it’s not a question of “if,” it’s a question of “when”. Also consider Peter’s vision, Saul’s calling, and the gift of the Spirit given to other nations. And you’ve already seen that other nations were always included.
It’s a covenant, right? That means it’s a contract, right? That means both parties have to agree to it, right? A new covenant, or contract, with the house of Judah and the house of Israel … this new covenant, new way, was presented to them. The Messiah was sent to Israelites. The disciples and apostles were first sent to Israelites. When Israel was presented with this new covenant, most of them not only rejected is—that is, turned it down, or refused to sign it—they rejected it violently. What they did was worse than a slap in the face. And what, you believe Yah was supposed to just sit there and take it?
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 21
33 ¶ Hear another parable: There was a certain householder,
which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and
digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to
husbandmen, and went into a far country:
34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his
servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the
fruits of it.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one,
and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and
they did unto them likewise.
That’s the long history of the Israelites killing the prophets.
37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They
will reverence my son.
38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among
themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us
seize on his inheritance.
39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard,
and slew him.
40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what
will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those
wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other
husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their
seasons.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the
scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same
is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing,
and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be
taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the
fruits thereof.
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 22
AND Jesus answered and spake unto them again by
parables, and said,
2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which
made a marriage for his son,
3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden
to the wedding: and they would not come.
The Messiah and the apostles were sent to the Israelites first.
4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them
which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my
oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready:
come unto the marriage.
5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his
farm, another to his merchandise:
6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them
spitefully, and slew them.
The fate of the apostles and disciples.
7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he
sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and
burned up their city.
The destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D.
8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but
they which were bidden were not worthy.
9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye
shall find, bid to the marriage.
So they went to the other nations (Matthew 21:43, above).
10 So those servants went out into the highways, and
gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and
good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
LUKE
CHAPTER 14
16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great
supper, and bade many:
17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that
were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
18 And they all with one consent began to make excuse.
The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground,
and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me
excused.
19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I
go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I
cannot come.
21 So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things.
Then the master of the house being angry said to his
servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city,
and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt,
and the blind.
22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast
commanded, and yet there is room.
23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the
highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my
house may be filled.
24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were
bidden shall taste of my supper.
LUKE
CHAPTER 19
41 ¶ And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and
wept over it,
42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this
thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now
they are hid from thine eyes.
43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies
shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and
keep thee in on every side,
44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy
children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one
stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of
thy visitation.
For understanding on “visitation,” read Isaiah 10:3; Jeremiah 6:6, 11:23, 23:12, 27:22, 29:10, and 32:5. Use the KJV or else you may see a different word. And you can compare Luke 19:44 before translation (in Greek) to Isaiah 10:3 in the Septuagint to see that it is the same word.
So, if anyone is to be blamed it would be most 1st century Israelites. And if they hadn’t done what they did it would have been them who was going out into the world being a light/giving the Word, and doing the service of cleansing and atonement (one form of salvation), fulfilling what was supposed to be their role as a kingdom of priests; bringing mankind, spiritual beings in flesh, into the eternal kingdom of Yah (eternity, called “life,” and the lake of fire called “death”), which is totally spirit based, opposed to the physical kingdom of Israel. But others had to do their job.
ACTS
CHAPTER 13
46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was
necessary that the word of God should first have been
spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge
yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the
Gentiles.
He meant that they were turning to the gentiles of that city, not turning to gentiles only while fully rejecting all Israelites. This can be seen in the fact that he went to Israelites after this. But from this you can see what was going on with the majority of Israelites.
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set
thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for
salvation unto the ends of the earth.
So, as you can see, He presented them with the new covenant (contract). The majority of them turned it down. The deal still remained on the table (Acts 2:39) so individuals could, and did, enter into it (sign it). And this included gentiles.

30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have
now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through
your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he
might have mercy upon all.
“We’re going to beat these heathens when we get in the kingdom for the beatings they gave us.”
I saw a GMS (the name of an Israelite camp) video where they taught that Psalms 2:1-12 gave them authority to beat and kill the other nations. Another one said it was Psalms 149:1-9 and Isaiah 40:15-17.
If they can claim those verses apply to this time period, the following scriptures do as well.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 63
WHO is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments
from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling
in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in
righteousness, mighty to save.
2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments
like him that treadeth in the winefat?
3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people
there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine
anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall
be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my
raiment.
4 For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of
my redeemed is come.
5 And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered
that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm
brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
6 And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make
them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength
to the earth.
Interpreting scripture their way: He said He would take care of Edom by Himself (alone)!
“Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.”
They use this statement from Malachi 1 to justify hate, and even violence, against those they say are Edomites/Esau—white people.
If you read the source of that statement in context you’ll see that it was actually past-tense.
MALACHI
CHAPTER 1
THE burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi.
2 I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein
hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? saith the
LORD: yet I loved Jacob,
3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage
waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will
return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of
hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they
shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people
against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever.
That last part is something totally different, but as you just read, He said that He has hated Esau by what He did to Esau. Also see: Isaiah 34:1-6, Ezekiel 25:12-14, 35:all.
And if what these camps and others say is true, so is this:
HOSEA
CHAPTER 9
11 As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird,
from the birth, and from the womb, and from the
conception.
12 Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave
them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, woe also to
them when I depart from them!
13 Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, is planted in a pleasant place:
but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.
14 Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a
miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them:
for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of
mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are
revolters.
Go ahead and check:
So, based on what they’ve said, Yah hates Esau and Ephraim, and because He does, whatever you think, feel, say, or do to them is justified. And not only that, they are rejected forever. This is what they’ve said.
“Well, they’re still going to be our servants.”
That just so happens to be what some Jews say.
Gentiles Will be the Slaves of Jews!
There were some Jews in another video who said the people who serve Israel in the future will want to do it. This is correct. They will fear Yah, and will know that the real Israelites are righteous. But it won’t be like slavery. No service or servitude of any kind will be forced.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 60
21 Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit
the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my
hands, that I may be glorified.
And of the land, this is said:
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 62
FOR Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for
Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness
thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a
lamp that burneth.
2 And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings
thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which
the mouth of the LORD shall name.
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, The
redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out,
A city not forsaken.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 65
17 ¶ For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and
the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I
create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her
people a joy.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion
shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the
serpent’s meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my
holy mountain, saith the LORD.
So, what type of place are we talking about here? It’s certainly not a place where these camp teachers and followers will dwell.
Here’s an example of their teachings about the other nations serving Israelites.
Watch the beginning - 7:08
The Israelites: Why Did God Create The Other Nations?
When it’s time for these people to go, don’t wine and cry and call it racism. It’s not racism; it’s justice.
And if you’ve haven’t noticed already, they see the entire Apocrypha as scripture.
Now let’s take a look at some of the verses these camps use to justify their belief that they will be ruling over other nations, particularly white people, and those nations will be their servants.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 14
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.
The people called “the strangers” were most likely people who were living in Israelite communities while they were in captivity. The Hebrew word that was used here was the same word for the type of foreigner who lived among them and could eat of the Passover in the Tanakh—ger. See: If you are looking at this to be fulfilled in another way in the future, you can’t say for certain that it will be. You will have to wait until it happens, then go to those verses.
2 And the people shall take them, and bring them to their
place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land
of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take
them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall
rule over their oppressors.
Are these people the same people called “the strangers” in verse 1? It’s not the same word. See:
There are many things to consider in this verse. Are “the strangers” the same as “the people”? Was the house of Israel to possess “the people” or “the strangers”? Was the house of Israel captive and oppressed by “the strangers,” “the people,” or someone else (the last part is something additional)?
The word used in Isaiah 14:2 for “the people” is also used in Isaiah 49:22. Verses 23-26 of Isaiah 49 also have the same context as Isaiah 14:2. This leans more in the direction of “the people” being the nations who oppressed Israelites, not “the strangers”. And remember, these “strangers” are those who turn aside and dwell. The Israelites were captive to these people?
Regardless of this, there is another issue. Like many of the passages the camps present, this one is taken out of context in a way that changes its original meaning. The passage in question is from Isaiah 14:2, right? This is from the time of the Babylonian captivity. When this captivity occurred, other nations helped Babylon, and the Israelites were scattered into nations besides Babylon. This is all scripture based, but it’s too much to fully break down here. The following should be enough to prove that Isaiah 14:2 was already fulfilled, and was for the Babylonian captivity. And remember, there weren’t any chapter divisions in the original text.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 13
THE burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did
see.
17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which
shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not
delight in it.
18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and
they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye
shall not spare children.
19 ¶ And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the
Chaldees’ excellency, shall be as when God overthrew
Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in
from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian
pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold
there.
21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their
houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall
dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their
desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and
her time is near to come, and her days shall not be
prolonged.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 14
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.
2 And the people shall take them, and bring them to their
place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land
of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take
them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall
rule over their oppressors.
3 And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall
give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from
the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 ¶ That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of
Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the
golden city ceased!
5 The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the
sceptre of the rulers.
6 He who smote the people in wrath with a continual
stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and
none hindereth.
ISAIAH
CHAPTER 47
COME down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of
Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter
of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender
and delicate.

20 ¶ Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans,

ISAIAH
CHAPTER 49
22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine
hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people:
and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy
daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
23 And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens
thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their
face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and
thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be
ashamed that wait for me.
24 ¶ Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful
captive delivered?
25 But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty
shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be
delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with
thee, and I will save thy children.
26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own
flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as
with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD
am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of
Jacob.
AMOS
CHAPTER 9
11 ¶ In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that
is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise
up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:
12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all
the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD
that doeth this.
OBADIAH
CHAPTER 1
THE vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD
concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the LORD,
and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and
let us rise up against her in battle.
7 All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to
the border: the men that were at peace with thee have
deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy
bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none
understanding in him.
8 Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, even destroy the
wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount
of Esau?
9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the
end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by
slaughter.
10 ¶ For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall
cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day
that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and
foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon
Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy
brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither
shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in
the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have
spoken proudly in the day of distress.
13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my
people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not
have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity,
nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their
calamity;
14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut
off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have
delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of
distress.
15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as
thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall
return upon thine own head.
16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall
all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and
they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they
had not been.
17 ¶ But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there
shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their
possessions.
18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of
Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they
shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not
be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath
spoken it.
19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau;
and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess
the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and
Benjamin shall possess Gilead.
20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel
shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath;
and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall
possess the cities of the south.
21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the
mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD’s.
ZEPHANIAH
CHAPTER 1
THE word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son
of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son
of Hizkiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of
Judah.
ZEPHANIAH
CHAPTER 2
5 Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of
the Cherethites! the word of the LORD is against you; O
Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee,
that there shall be no inhabitant.
6 And the sea coast shall be dwellings and cottages for
shepherds, and folds for flocks.
7 And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of
Judah; they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon
shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God
shall visit them, and turn away their captivity.
8 ¶ I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of
the children of Ammon, whereby they have reproached my
people, and magnified themselves against their border.
9 Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of
Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of
Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and
saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my
people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall
possess them.
Prophecy is sometimes fulfilled a number of times, but once fulfilled the first time you can’t say for certain that it will happen again unless you have proof. It now becomes the type of prophecy that you have to wait and identify afterwards, as you see being done in the New Testament by the apostles.
And if you didn’t notice, the whole Edomite doctrine of the camps just took a blow as well.
Now, compare what you’ve just learned to what’s being taught here:
ZABACH WHITES CANT BE SAVED
A little something to think about
MATTHEW
CHAPTER 12
46 ¶ While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother
and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.
47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy
brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.
48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is
my mother? and who are my brethren?
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and
said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in
heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
So, in a spiritual sense, the actual bloodline is not considered family. If an Israelite rejects Yah’s will and walks a path of unrighteousness he will be rejected. If a non-Israelite does the opposite, he will be accepted. And this is shown throughout the Bible, throughout Israelite history, and even before Israelite history. So, the real family is mankind that walks in righteousness. The only reason Israelites are different is because of promises, particularly those made to a man who wasn’t an Israelite, but walked in righteousness—Abraham.
And even Israelites have to be grafted back in. The awakening of millions of people to their true heritage doesn’t nullify what’s in the New Testament. The only way you’re going into the land is to be an Israelite who is a Nazarene/real Biblical Christian/believer. The Messiah is the door, the way in.
For a conformation, take a look at this:
HEBREWS
CHAPTER 3
7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear
his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day
of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my
works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said,
They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known
my ways.
11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my
rest.)
12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil
heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day;
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the
beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden
not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit
not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not
with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the
wilderness?
18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into
his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of
unbelief.
These people saw what Yah did in Egypt. They saw what He did at the Red Sea. They saw many other miracles, and they still doubted/had unbelief. The same is true for Moses.
PSALMS
PSALM 78
12 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in
the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
13 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through;
and he made the waters to stand as an heap.
14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the
night with a light of fire.
15 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them
drink as out of the great depths.
16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused
waters to run down like rivers.
17 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the
most High in the wilderness.
18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for
their lust.
19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish
a table in the wilderness?
20 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out,
and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he
provide flesh for his people?
21 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire
was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against
Israel;
22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his
salvation:
Why couldn’t the Israelites in the Messiah’s time enter into the Kingdom and new covenant? Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation, the Messiah; though he did all those miracles in their presence.
23 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and
opened the doors of heaven,
24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had
given them of the corn of heaven.
25 Man did eat angels’ food: he sent them meat to the full.
26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by
his power he brought in the south wind.
27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered
fowls like as the sand of the sea:
28 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about
their habitations.
29 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them
their own desire;
30 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their
meat was yet in their mouths,
31 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest
of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel.
32 For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his
wondrous works.
After about two years of being out of Egypt—about two years of grumbling, backsliding, and doubt—they were at the point where they were about to go into their promised inheritance.
NUMBERS
CHAPTER 13
AND the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan,
which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of
their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among
them.
3 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them
from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of
the children of Israel.
16 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to
spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun
Jehoshua.
17 ¶ And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan,
and said unto them, Get you up this way southward, and go
up into the mountain:
18 And see the land, what it is; and the people that dwelleth
therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;
19 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be
good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in,
whether in tents, or in strong holds;
20 And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether
there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage,
and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the
time of the firstripe grapes.
21 ¶ So they went up, and searched the land from the
wilderness of Zin unto Rehob, as men come to Hamath.
22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron;
where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak,
were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in
Egypt.)
23 And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down
from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they
bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the
pomegranates, and of the figs.
24 The place was called the brook Eshcol, because of the
cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from
thence.
25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty
days.
26 ¶ And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and
to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the
wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word
unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them
the fruit of the land.
27 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land
whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and
honey; and this is the fruit of it.
So, just as Yah had told them, the land flowed with milk and honey.
28 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land,
and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we
saw the children of Anak there.
29 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the
Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the
mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the
coast of Jordan.
30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let
us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to
overcome it.
31 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able
to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which
they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The
land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that
eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we
saw in it are men of a great stature.
33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which
come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as
grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
NUMBERS
CHAPTER 14
AND all the congregation lifted up their voice, and cried;
and the people wept that night.
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses
and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto
them, Would God that we had died in the land of Egypt! or
would God we had died in this wilderness!
3 And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land,
to fall by the sword, that our wives and our children should
be a prey? were it not better for us to return into Egypt?
4 And they said one to another, Let us make a captain, and
let us return into Egypt.
They said to one another…. They decided to break the covenant, another case of rejecting the covenant. They not only broke it in their hearts, they acted on what was in their hearts. Because the covenant was broken at this point Yah wasn’t unlawful for not allowing them to enter the Promised Land though He had previously agreed to it (with conditions). And even if they wouldn’t have acted on it, it would have still be broken in their hearts, and thus broken to Yah.
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the
assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.
6 ¶ And Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of
Jephunneh, which were of them that searched the land, rent
their clothes:
7 And they spake unto all the company of the children of
Israel, saying, The land, which we passed through to search
it, is an exceeding good land.
8 If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this
land, and give it us; a land which floweth with milk and
honey.
9 Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the
people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence
is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them
not.
10 But all the congregation bade stone them with stones.
And the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of the
congregation before all the children of Israel.
They sought to kill the ones who tried to turn them away from wickedness. This went on to be a normal occurrence for generations to come. You even saw this in the days of Martin Luther King. You try to turn these people away from unrighteousness, they’ll turn on you. You try to turn these people on to higher righteousness, they’ll turn on you.
11 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, How long will this
people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they
believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among
them?
Similar to what we saw with the Messiah.
12 I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit
them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier
than they.
Similar to what we saw with the gentiles.
13 ¶ And Moses said unto the LORD, Then the Egyptians
shall hear it, (for thou broughtest up this people in thy
might from among them;)
14 And they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land: for
they have heard that thou LORD art among this people, that
thou LORD art seen face to face, and that thy cloud standeth
over them, and that thou goest before them, by day time in
a pillar of a cloud, and in a pillar of fire by night.
15 ¶ Now if thou shalt kill all this people as one man, then
the nations which have heard the fame of thee will speak,
saying,
16 Because the LORD was not able to bring this people into
the land which he sware unto them, therefore he hath slain
them in the wilderness.
17 And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be
great, according as thou hast spoken, saying,
18 The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy,
forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means
clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon
the children unto the third and fourth generation.
19 Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of this people
according unto the greatness of thy mercy, and as thou hast
forgiven this people, from Egypt even until now.
20 And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy
word:
21 But as truly as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the
glory of the LORD.
22 Because all those men which have seen my glory, and
my miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness,
and have tempted me now these ten times, and have not
hearkened to my voice;
23 Surely they shall not see the land which I sware unto
their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked me see
it:
They can’t enter into the kingdom.
24 But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with
him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the
land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.
That small minority who got it right, who didn’t reject the covenant, can enter.
25 (Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwelt in the
valley.) To morrow turn you, and get you into the
wilderness by the way of the Red sea.
26 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron,
saying,
27 How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which
murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the
children of Israel, which they murmur against me.
28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, as ye
have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:
29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that
were numbered of you, according to your whole number,
from twenty years old and upward, which have murmured
against me,
30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning
which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the
son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.
31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey,
them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye
have despised.
32 But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this
wilderness.
33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty
years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be
wasted in the wilderness.
34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the
land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your
iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of
promise.
35 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil
congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this
wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
36 And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who
returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against
him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,
37 Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon
the land, died by the plague before the LORD.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of
Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the
land, lived still.
39 And Moses told these sayings unto all the children of
Israel: and the people mourned greatly.
DEUTERONOMY
CHAPTER 1
THESE be the words which Moses spake unto all Israel on
this side Jordan in the wilderness, in the plain over against
the Red sea, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and
Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
2 (There are eleven days’ journey from Horeb by the way
of mount Seir unto Kadesh-barnea.)
3 And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh
month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto
the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had
given him in commandment unto them;
22 ¶ And ye came near unto me every one of you, and said,
We will send men before us, and they shall search us out
the land, and bring us word again by what way we must go
up, and into what cities we shall come.
23 And the saying pleased me well: and I took twelve men
of you, one of a tribe:
24 And they turned and went up into the mountain, and
came unto the valley of Eshcol, and searched it out.
25 And they took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and
brought it down unto us, and brought us word again, and
said, It is a good land which the LORD our God doth give
us.
26 Notwithstanding ye would not go up, but rebelled
against the commandment of the LORD your God:
27 And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the
LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of
Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to
destroy us.
28 Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged
our heart, saying, The people is greater and taller than we;
the cities are great and walled up to heaven; and moreover
we have seen the sons of the Anakims there.
29 Then I said unto you, Dread not, neither be afraid of
them.
30 The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall
fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt
before your eyes;
31 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the
LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all
the way that ye went, until ye came into this place.
32 Yet in this thing ye did not believe the LORD your God,
33 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a
place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by
what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.
34 And the LORD heard the voice of your words, and was
wroth, and sware, saying,
35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil
generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto
your fathers,
36 Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to
him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to
his children, because he hath wholly followed the LORD.
37 Also the LORD was angry with me for your sakes,
saying, Thou also shalt not go in thither.
38 But Joshua the son of Nun, which standeth before thee,
he shall go in thither: encourage him: for he shall cause
Israel to inherit it.
39 Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a
prey, and your children, which in that day had no
knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither,
and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
As stated again in verse 32, they did not believe.
ROMANS
CHAPTER 11
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,
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down
thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have
reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not
bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant
according to the election of grace.
Corresponds to Caleb and Joshua.
6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise
grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no
more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh
for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were
blinded
8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit
of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they
should not hear;) unto this day.
9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a
trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and
bow down their back alway.
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall?
God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come
unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
12 Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and
the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how
much more their fulness?
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the
apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which
are my flesh, and might save some of them.
15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the
world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the
dead?
Read: Ezekiel 37:1-14, Matthew 8:22, and John 11:25
And the receiving of these Israelites of the future corresponds to the little ones in the wilderness, the future generations who would enter into the promise.
16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if
the root be holy, so are the branches.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou,
being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and
with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou
bearest not the root, but the root thee.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I
might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou
standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed
lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on
them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou
continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut
off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be
graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
The condition? If they would no longer abide in unbelief, that is, if they believe—if they sign the second covenant instead of rejecting it!
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by
nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive
tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural
branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of
this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness
of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There
shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take
away their sins.
28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your
sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the
fathers’ sakes.
29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have
now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through
your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he
might have mercy upon all.
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and
knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments,
and his ways past finding out!
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath
been his counseller?
35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be
recompensed unto him again?
36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things:
to whom be glory for ever. Amen.
All Israel will be saved. He is speaking of a spiritual salvation, but there are prophecies that speak of all Israel being physically saved. And think about what the spiritual salvation of the New Testament entails—forgiveness of sins, receiving of a new spirit, and having the Law written on your heart (along with other things). This is exactly what Yah said He would do to scattered Israel when bringing them back into their land. See: Jeremiah 31:31-33, Ezekiel 36:24-27, and Ezekiel 37:14. Also see: Acts 2:1-39.
With the tablets of stone representing the covenant, the first were broken by a man, a prophet (Hosea 12:13), just as the covenant they represented was broken by men/man. The second set of tablets was established upon mercy brought forth by the intercession of a man, a prophet (Exodus 32:30-34:28 and Deuteronomy 9:8-10:5).
And with both men who were leading the children of Israel into their promised inheritance, Moses and Joshua, the people first had to go through water. Even the earth was submerged in water in order to cleanse it from unrighteousness.
