The Daily Word of Righteousness
You Are My People, #7
As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. (Romans 11:28)
The Gospel of Christ began as a Jewish religion but now God has replaced the Jews with Gentile believers. The Jew who is to be saved must come into the Gentile Church. There is no basis in Scripture for such an error. God never changes. The Jews are beloved because of the patriarchs of Israel. The Hebrew Prophets declared that the Jews will be gathered from the four corners of the earth, and that Jerusalem will become the Throne of God. This surely shall come to pass!
In the day of Israel's visitation, the rabbis and their congregations are to have nothing whatever to do with "replacement theology"—with the concept that Gentile believers have replaced the Jews in God's Kingdom purposes.
The current perversions of the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven. Among the contemporary excesses are the overemphasis on God's love without a balancing awareness of His fiery judgment and wrath; the recent "faith" and "prosperity" doctrines; and "Reconstructionism," which is an attempt of Christians to force their will on the civil government, to bring in the Kingdom of God before Christ returns.
In the day of Israel's visitation, the rabbis and their congregations must have nothing whatever to do with the current effort of Christians to portray God as a kindly old gentleman who will not really punish people, or to utilize supernatural principles for their own benefit. These are not of God but of the False Prophet the spirit of religious delusion.
As for Reconstructionism, the Kingdom of God will be ushered in by Christ at His appearing, and not before.
Christian art forms, liturgies, and statements of faith. The Tabernacle of the Congregation, its furnishings, the Aaronic priesthood, and the Ten Commandments, came directly from the hand of God. God Himself actually dwelled between the wings of the Cherubim of Glory in the Most Holy Place of the Tabernacle. The Divine Fire came down on occasion and ignited the wood on the Altar of Burnt Offering. The God of Heaven chose the land of Israel out of all the geographical areas on the earth.
The architecture, liturgies, and statements of faith of the Christian churches came from the minds of human beings. Without passing any judgment on the sincerity or devoutness of those who constructed the various Christian elements, the fact remains that the earthly implements and liturgies of Christianity are humanly conceived adaptations and responses.
There is no physical Christian structure on earth to compare with the Tabernacle of the Congregation constructed by Moses, as far as the Divine Presence is concerned, and there shall not again be such a Divinely ordained temple until the Lord Jesus returns from Heaven, and then it shall be composed of living stones.
Therefore in the day of Israel's visitation, the rabbis and their congregations are to have nothing whatever to do with Christian architecture or other art forms, liturgies, or statements of faith.
To be continued.
