The evil one has caused the followers of Christ to not realize who they are, God’s Chosen People.
The remnant has always been the Chosen One’s. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Daniel, the prophets, etc., all trusted by faith that the promised Messiah would atone for their sins.
The vast majority of the Israelites chose to worship other gods and were not saved.
John the Baptist, the disciples who were of the House of Israel and the House of Judah, Paul the Apostle, the 3,000 Jews who were saved on Pentecost, etc., all trusted by faith in the atoning work of Christ on the cross.
The vast majority of the Jews rejected Him as their Messiah and were lost.
Today the remnant believes in Christ’s atoning work alone, but the majority of people reject Him and are lost.
Jews forbid one another to read the New Testament, so they blind themselves to the truth about their Messiah.
There has always been a remnant who believed. The only thing that has changed is that Jesus offered His New Covenant, where He put His law in our minds and wrote it on our hearts. His remnant, His Chosen People, have always trusted by faith.
Everything that was promised to Abraham and his descendants is offered to them in the New Covenant.
A remnant has always believed by faith and were saved. The rest tried to be saved by the law and they were lost. That’s true of the Israelites, the Jews, and Gentiles today.
The promises that were made to Abraham are ultimately to those who believe by faith, not his physical descendants.
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Daniel, etc. all believed that the Messiah would come and atone for their sins. We look back on that event.
Psalm 73:1 tells us that the true Israel is made up of those who have a clean heart, who are forgiven because they have a covenant relationship with the Father.
“Truly God is good to Israel, to such as are of a clean heart.“
Why do Christians focus on Jews in Israel, when the Word of God says that Jesus made both – Jews and gentiles, one church?
Ephesians 2:14-22 “For He Himself is our peace, who has made both (Jew and Gentile) one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone, in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.”
Romans 2:28-29 tells us that a Jew is one inwardly, whose heart is circumcised.
“For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.”
Romans 9:6-8 says Abraham’s fleshly descendants ARE NOT the children of God.
“For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, “In Isaac your seed shall be called.” That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are NOT the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed.”
Galatians 3:7 tells us that ONLY those who are of faith are the children of God.
“Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.”
Galatians 3:16 tells us that the seed of Abraham is Jesus Christ.
“Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say,“And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “and to your Seed,” who is Christ.”
Galatians 3:28-29 tells us that followers of Christ (Jew and Gentile) are Abraham’s seed who receive the promises made to Abraham.
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
Paul is clearly telling us that true Israel, true Jews, believe by faith, and so inherit the promises made to father Abraham.
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” 1 Peter 2:9
Everyone who believes in Christ by faith, are the Chosen People of God. They will inherit Holy Jerusalem when Christ returns.
The promise is yet to be fulfilled. It has not been fulfilled by Zionist Israel, which was created by the enemy to deceive the world.
God said that He would bless Abraham, not the modern state of Israel.
Please stop manipulating the Word of God by inserting the name Israel in it!
The verse reads “I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
God’s declaration in Genesis 12:3 was to Abraham, who was neither an Israelite nor a Jew, as they were descendants of his grandson Jacob/Israel.
Abraham was a Hebrew from Ur in Babylon. God gave him that assurance as He told him to leave Ur and go to another place, which was a bold step which took a lot of faith.
Besides that it can’t just apply to the Jews, because the tribe of Judah is only one of the twelve tribes.

Great article. Wish the TV evangelists would speak the truth. I did read that Israel is giving loads of money to these fake Christians to spew Zionist propaganda. The term Christian Zionist makes no sense.
Thank you for your comment Sam! All praise to the Father!
Oh, I’m sure that the Zionist deceivers are paid well to promote the support of Zionist Israel.
Sadly these people will stand before their Righteous Judge some day to account for supporting Zionism.
thanks. Good testimony that neither ethnicity nor stolen lands bombed into existence mean a preferred race is favored; some like to twist that scripture.
David, thank you once again for all your hard work! I think this information really needs to get out there especially with so much chatter about the coming 70th anniversary of the inception of Zionist Israel. And the whole “this generation” prophecy in Matt 24. (I know you cover this and Im not 100% convinced that it was fulfilled completely in AD 70). The overwhelming majority of eschatology followers pin Israel as the center of endtimes fulfillment. I was once in that same camp, but am now not stuck somewhere in the middle. I do believe the Zionist Jews in Israel are NOT the chosen people of God. But then I look at a lot of seemingly incredible coincidences such as the 6 day war, the blood moon tetrads that coincided with the inception of Israel and the recapturing of Jerusalem, and other peculiar Israeli events over the last 120 years all culminating in 2017. Then to top it off, there’s the Revelation 12 sign that happens 1 day after the Feast of Trumpets and 1 month after the “Great American Eclipse” total solar eclipse that the entire nation will see, all coming together within that 70 year “generation.” I find it extremely difficult to dismiss all of that as mere coincidence.
I think where I stand as of now, is that the Zionist nation of Israel is still playing a part in end times events, though it is not as most Christians believe. I know YAH uses evil for His ultimate glory, so I don’t see Him using Zionist Israel for His purposes being out of character for what we see throughout scripture. Could it be a time clock that gets everyones attention that is “watching” regardless of which side of the fence you are on? I guess we will know soon enough. Blessings <
Thank you for sharing your insight Colin! Keep in mind that the Jesuits have created a false end times prophecy fulfillment narrative, so they are going to cause events in the world to make it seem like their false explanations are coming true. One of those is that a rebuilt temple will be created in Israel. And that the supposed one-man antichrist will enter it, desolate it, proclaim himself as God, etc…
Well, all of that is just theater, to deceived undiscerning believers.
Zionist Israel won the 6-day war because the Jesuits caused them to have military power even in their founding. The God of the Bible does not need military might to defend His people.
There is no prophecy left to be fulfilled to justify the Zionist state of Israel, or a rebuilt temple (which would be blasphemous, as it rejects Messiah’s one-time sacrifice). Here is a study about the third temple not being Biblical.

I did enjoy your teachings till you and Michael Hickman blasphemer the name jesus bc of ignorance of wanting to be a hebrue in hebrue root moment . BTW nt was in Greek never hebrue , no script in hebrue can be shown or found for evidence but Greek was found and shown and dated to correct period . This is the thing I see with all the hebrue roots movement . ( those who say they are jews but of the synogog of satan) yup that sums it up pretty much ,. Incase you forgot God himself confounded the languages starting at the tower of babel . Then on day of pentacost . They all the ppl heard the gospel in their own language ( speaking in tounges ) meaning their language not mixed not hebrue but there’s …the Greek ioosus we use a j instead of a I and I have personally heard the name in Greek and is sounds same it is pronounce as ( lisous) do you think that God didn’t know the name would be in ppl language .? Then ignorance of man is just that ignorant . If you think that Joshua ( yehoshua ) is his name ( English wise then why not Jason or jeramy ) see problem is that you don’t belive all scripture was inspired by God if you did then you wouldn’t blaspheme what’s writen . You use scripture but I notice change names elohim yeshua then you have to change all names bc the apostles names are in English not there original example ( Paul in hebrue is tzuar ) matthue is matat ( John is yochanan ) Judah is yahuda , shall I go on ….James Yaakov so that being said you have to throw out the entire bible and rite your own . If you change one name you must change them all and be hebrue not just when it suits you . It’s a shame I that I really enjoyed and belived ( but not so much now ) your teachings and then this . So by your own words in way everyone from yr X till about 15 yrs ago went to hell bc they beloved on jesus if not with your loop hole ( who am I to judge ) do understand you will be counted responsible for those that loose faith bc of that comment and page where you deny Jesus as name of savior for English and it won’t be nice on judgment day . ( by grace ( act of kindness we don’t deserve ) through faith are we saved not by works of the carnal mind nor by doctrine of men nor by acting like a hebrue ( the wall has been taken down as you yourself state ) no jew or gentile . . I really want to go on but find that if your set in hebrue roots your probably stuck ..btw the word ( yahshu ( no a ) means deciver in the bablonian talmud ……so just as Jesuits infiltrated the real church so has the so called ” hebrues”
Sam, read the preface of the King James or New King James Bible, and it will tell you that they replaced the covenant name of the Father, YHWH, with God and Lord. I’ll stick with the covenant name, thanks.
The titles of ‘God’ and ‘Lord’ are generic terms. If someone says that they believe in god, that is not telling you whom they serve.
Their god could be Allah or Buddha or Satan.
The Hebrew Scriptures give us the Father’s personal, covenant name, which should be hallowed above all other names.
The Father’s personal name is YHUH, Yahuah, which is spelled from right to left in Hebrew as יהוה.
Here’s a few verses which declare the importance of using the right name. The KJV is listed first to compare its usage of the titles, to the personal names in the ISR translation.
“Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” Exodus 20:7
“You do not bring the Name of יהוה (Yahuah) your Elohim to naught, for יהוה does not leave the one unpunished who brings His Name to naught.”
“That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH (the NKJ uses Lord), art the most high over all the earth.” Psalm 83:18
“And let them know that You, Whose Name is יהוה, (Yahuah) You alone are the Most High over all the earth.”
“Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.” Malachi 3:16
“Then shall those who fear יהוה (Yahuah) speak to one another, and יהוה listen and hear, and a book of remembrance be written before Him, of those who fear יהוה, and those who think upon His Name.”
“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.” Matthew 1:21
“And she shall give birth to a Son, and you shall call His Name יהושע (Yahusha) for He shall save His people from their sins.”
As for Jesus, names in Scripture have meaning. Jesus doesn’t have a Scriptural meaning.
But Yahusha, means Yahuah, the Father, saves. Is that not what Messiah did? I like using that name, thanks.
When Saul was overcome with the presence of Messiah on the road to Damascus, Messiah spoke His name to him in Hebrew, not Greek.
“And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me, and saying in the Heḇrew language, ‘Sha’ul, Sha’ul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the prods.’ “And I said, ‘Who are You, Master?’ And He said, ‘I am יהושע Yahusha, whom you persecute.” Act 26:14-5
You do not see me condemning people for using the name Jesus, like many in the Hebrew Roots Movement do.
Messiah knows our hearts. I know that the great theologians and great followers of Messiah, used the name Jesus.
I and many were saved using the name Jesus.
So don’t lump me into a Pharisaical group of Hebrew Roots Movement people.
I love Messiah and I like using His given Hebrew name, but I don’t condemn or judge people for using Jesus; though I do wonder why they would not want to learn truth about His Hebrew name.
You are extremely bitter and ignorant..and racist against anybody who is not of your faith. you better repent on your last days of breath bc you are going to be dealt with by what you said.. in the name of jesus
So on the page that I proclaim that those who have a covenant relationship with the Father, through the Son, are the true Israel; which is what Scripture clearly proclaims; you say that I am bitter and ignorant. You seem to be the racist, for my explanation does not exclude any people group.
Galatians 3:28-29 tells us that followers of Messiah (Jew and Gentile) are Abraham’s seed who receive the promises made to Abraham.
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
Here’s a study called Messiah Setup His Kingdom, that shows that Messiah did away with the physical temple, city and Jewish leadership system; to setup the kingdom of Elohim; which is made up of those who believe in Him as their Messiah. http://theolivetdiscourse.com/messiah-set-up-his-kingdom/
I’m quite pleased with the inoormatifn in this one. TY!
Jesus name is not false! His real name is many but Yhwh is one of the real ones, Messiah, Yeshua, and many more! All are valid. Also Christmas is around His birth and that is what we celebrate more those in Christ His coming to us as a baby and His life for us amen! St. Nicholas was a real Christian also and did give like Santa Claus and was a giver gave the kids toys and candies and left them in their stockings and wooden shoes. And he did have reindeer and they pulled his sleigh. But not the one which flys! And he was a toymaker. He passed away and went to heaven a good man. The story of Santa Claus is just for fun but the truthful one is about Jesus and His people. Wheather it’s pagan or not! WE are not celebrating for that reason to hell with the devil. We mess not with flesh and blood but with spiritual wickedness in high places. And our weapons are not carnal. Amen we need to walk in the spirit so we will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. God bless you and shalom, I have a bit of Hebrew in me.
The Followers of the christian false messiah jesus christ are an abomination
Thank you for your comment Michael. Elohim knows people’s hearts and will judge whether they are saved by faith in the Messiah of Scripture. Yes, the Roman Jesus is a false Messiah in that all of the things that are taught about him, such as Easter and Christmas, are false.
But we can’t be like the Pharisees and proclaim that every person who uses the name Jesus Christ is an abomination, for that is not our place to judge.
The Protestant Reformers and the millions who came out of the Catholic Church to be saved by faith used the name Jesus.
The great Preachers of the 18-19th centuries who spread around the world and preached the Gospel used the name Jesus.
Most of us today came to the faith in the name of Jesus.
We must pray that the Spirit moves in their hearts and opens their eyes, to see how the Roman Bishops and Emperor Constantine created a false Christian religion, to replace Scripture truths about our Messiah.

Thank you for your comment Karen 🙂 Abraham was from the land of Ur, part of the Chaldean/Babylonian province. Elohim called him out of that place to a set-apart place.
