Yahshua (Jesus) sacrificed His divine life blood, “breaking down the wall of division, between God’s chosen people the Jews and the Gentile foreigners to make a way for the Gentiles, “who were far away” from His covenant promises and eternal blessings.”
- Ephesians 2:13-14 -
The Holy One of Israel sent His Son as the Messiah to the Jews first, to manifest His name, glory, and salvation. Through this remnant of redeemed Jews who believed, salvation spread to multitudes of Gentiles. The Great Apostle Paul proclaimed, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel [Good News of the Kingdom of Heaven], for it is the power of God for salvation to every one who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Gentile” (Romans 1:16). Going in Almighty God’s divine order of salvation “to the Jew first” requires and releases the fullest measure of truth embodying the biblically pure holy “Hebrew root” and its “nourishing sap” (Romans 11:17). When we have the full power and light of Yahshua (Jesus) in the magnitude of His Jewish identity and heartbeat, then the Gentiles will know the Messiah in the fullness of who He is. Through the sacrificial cleansing blood of our Savior, and the power of His indwelling “Holy Spirit of truth”, a “new creation” of individual “born again” Jewish and Gentile faithful believers would become united as “one new man” (John 16:13, 2 Corinthians 5:17, John 3:3, Ephesians 2:14-16). This supernatural spiritual “new creation”, is called “the body of Messiah”. It was a mystery unknown until Yahshua (Jesus) sacrificed His divine life blood, “breaking down the wall of division, between God’s chosen people the Jews and the Gentile foreigners (Ephesians 2:14). The Mighty One of Israel was proclaiming His mercy and grace to make a way for the Gentiles, “who were far away” from His covenant promises and eternal blessings, HalleluYAH! (Ephesians 2:13).
The Apostle Paul was mercifully given a loving fatherly heart to disciple the Gentiles as expressed by these words, “that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:16). Paul, in his wisdom and desire to protect the young Gentile believers, continually warned of Satan’s strategies of deception that could easily lure them back into captivity to their former way of life (Acts 13:9). The apostle understood the special vulnerability for the newly “born again” Gentile followers of Yahshua (Jesus) (Romans 11:13, Ephesians 3:1, John 3:3). Paul referred to them as “wild, not cultivated olive tree branches” (Romans 11:17). He knew how susceptible they were because of their former life as foreigners to the God of Israel, not having a biblical foundation or understanding of His Word. Paul said, “I don’t want you to be unaware of Satan’s schemes, lest he have an advantage over you” (see 2 Corinthians 2:11). He was acutely aware of the Enemy’s strategies and how easy it would be to deceive the Gentiles who formerly worshipped false gods and embraced idolatrous traditions. He sorrowfully proclaimed to his Gentile brethren in the true faith, specifying that “seducing spirits” ,“doctrines of demons”, and “another Yahshua (Jesus), a different spirit, and a different gospel” would ensnare many of the Gentile believers to “fall away and apostatize” from obedience to uncompromised biblical truth (1 Timothy 4:1, see 2 Corinthians 11:4, 2 Thessalonians 1-3).
Apostle Paul lovingly warned the new Gentile believers, Do not be arrogant toward the [original Jewish] branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.”
- Romans 11:18 -
In the Messiah's merciful love, Paul exhorted and continually warned his beloved Gentile brethren to be on guard against deception and pride, which would be rebellion against the Holy One and His Jewish people. He profoundly exclaimed, “Remember, you Gentiles … remember you were at that time separate from Messiah [Christ], excluded from the people of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world” (Ephesians 2:11-12). Paul strongly cautioned, “Do not be arrogant toward the [original Jewish] branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.” You will say then, “Branches [some unbelieving Jews] were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear; for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either” (Romans 11:18-21). This is why in essence Paul was always exhorting the Gentiles, “you must continue in humility, not only were you foreigners but you must remember that “the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God”, which are the Holy Scriptures (Romans 3:2). If it wasn’t for the Jewish people there would be no oracles. It was through their lineage that Messiah was born. They were “the chosen people” to know the One True God, to record His Scriptures, and to “be His witnesses” so the Gentiles could learn about the God of Israel (Deuteronomy 7:6-8, Isaiah 43:10). Paul knew that if they forgot their humble origins as Gentile foreigners that they were in danger, as “wild olive tree branches", of being cut off and thrown into the fire because of their pride and anti-Semitic attitude towards Messiah’s brethren (Romans 11:17,21).
The apostle Paul prophetically foresaw the threatening forthcoming strategies of the enemy. As a Jewish man, he was well aware of Satan’s anti-Semitism (hatred of Jews) throughout the ages and understood how it was going to enter the hearts of Gentile believers within the body of Messiah.”
“Therefore I,… implore you [Gentiles] to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love, being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit [Jew and Gentile one new man] in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling…” (Ephesians 4:1-4) Apostle Paul was their “father through the gospel”, who wholeheartedly warned his Gentile spiritual sons and daughters that a massive deception of Satan was going to come (1 Corinthians 4:15). He explained to them, “Satan masquerades as an angel of light and it is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants [preachers and teachers] of righteousness” to deceive many (2 Corinthians 11:14-15). Paul continued warning for “three years with tears” saying, "I know that after my departure savage wolves [dressed in sheep’s clothing] will come in among you, not sparing the flock; Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them”. He protectively cautioned them saying, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; … they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own [self pleasing worldly] desires.” The apostle Paul prophetically foresaw the threatening forthcoming strategies of the enemy. As a Jewish man, he was well aware of Satan’s anti-Semitism (hatred of Jews) throughout the ages and understood how it was going to enter the hearts of Gentile believers within the body of Messiah by bringing in doctrines, traditions, attitudes, and translations that would be infused with the poison of anti-Semitism. Ultimately, this would lead to what is called replacement theology. Sadly, multitudes of Christian Gentile believers have embraced this evil lie, which erroneously believes that God rejected the Jews and that the Gentiles had replaced them as the recipients of Israel’s promises and blessings. In arrogance they say, ”We have replaced Israel in God’s heart and plan and their promises are for us.” Replacement Theology completely undermines what Yahshua (Jesus) sent His Spirit to accomplish within His true body of believers, which embraces both the believing Jews and Gentiles. Messiah’s redeemed spiritual body is built on the Hebraic biblical “foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Messiah Yahshua [Christ Jesus] Himself as the chief cornerstone” (Ephesians 2:15, 20).
All those who truly love and obey the Jewish Messiah must guard their hearts from any anti-Semitic attitudes towards His very own brethren for whom He came first and foremost.”
We are in the most critical time on the face of the earth we most likely have entered “the time such as never was and will never be again” (see Matthew 24:21), it is called “the tribulation” and “the time of Jacob’s trouble” (Jeremiah 30:7). Even now, as tumultuous wars have broken out in the Middle East against Israel, anti-Semitic propaganda is increasing daily, stirring up worldwide hatred for Israel and the Jewish people. The Bible foretells that Satan is going to spread His hatred towards the God of Israel and His chosen people, the Jews, to such a point in these last days that all the nations of the earth would turn against Israel, both people and land. “It will come about on that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will injure themselves severely. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it” (Zechariah 12:3). The biblical knowledge of God’s plan for the Jews and Gentiles to come together as “one new man” (Ephesians 2:14-18) has been ignored by many preachers, teachers, and believers who harbor anti-Semitism and replacement theology in their hearts, instead of humble gratitude and love for the Jewish people. All those who truly love and obey the Jewish Messiah must guard their hearts from any anti-Semitic attitudes towards His very own brethren for whom He came first and foremost. “How odd of God to choose the Jew, but not so odd as those who choose the Jewish God and hate the Jew.”
