Antisemittism?

Jews still follow the God of Abraham as we do to this very day.   But God's Plan was to include the Gentiles into the Kingdom of God.   And in doing so, Christ the Messiah, came as partially Prophesied and not as King of kings which He will soon.   Instead, He came preaching love those who hate you, persecute you, do you wrong.   And this caused a great blindness for the Jews.   Even in Chapter 10 of Acts, we see Peter and converted Jews shocked as Gentiles were receiving the Holy Spirit and needed to be Baptized.   It took a dream for Peter to understand both Jew and Gentile were being accepted into God's Kingdom.

 

I said all of that to say this, the Jews are still our Brothers and Sisters in God.   And they will be all accepted back, Paul explains this.   The Jews are not lost, they were blinded on Purpose by God so us Gentiles could be accepted into the Fold as Grafted in Heirs.

 

So to attack today's Jew for not accepting Christ is a Sin!   They are blinded for this period so us Gentiles can have their same Heritage Promises.   But God will restore them.   We should be accepting Jews as Family of God and praying they turn to Christ, not rebuking them and looking at them as Enemy number One!

I am not attacking todays Jews if you are referencing me, until they accept Christ as their Messiah they will continue to be persecuted.

That is what happened when they picked Barabass over Christ.

Shalom. 

I believe that the Jewish people has been and are persecuted mainly because they are the chosen people of Abba Father, God/Elohim, as He promised Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, right? 

He loves them as He also loves His children, and that's the main reason for their and our persecution, I believe. 

And what of their rejection of Christ?

1John 5:1

1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him
 

As much as I would love to think everyone will be accepted into the flock the Bible clearly states that unless the Jews do come to accept Jesus as the messiah they are lost, they didn’t know the voice of the Father in the OT and therefore didn’t know the voice of the son

unless this changes and come to Christ it’s not going to end well as Paul states just because you are a Jew you don’t get a free ride without coming to Christ

Of course, a Jewish man or woman needs also to repent and get saved and born through the Lord. Nevertheless I believe that the Jewish people are a chosen people, I didn't say that all of them will be forever saved, did I?

I too believe they ate God’s chosen people but until they accept Christ as their Messiah there is no salvation for them, those that accept Christ are already saved.

Definitely did not directly quote you so don’t take it as a attack

Perhaps. I have noticed that the Jews have been persecuted throughout history and wondered if it is because they denied Christ.

Really? I would like to hear George's take on this. 

The Jewish people are blinded for a season ... but God has a plan for them ... and we should do our duty in participating in His plan!  As a Gentile, I'm called to provoke them to jealousy ...
