    You THINK the ten tribes taken captive by the Assyrians is what 1Pe 1:1 is speaking of? There is no mention of "chosen race" in Peter. If those of the dispersion is limited to Israel through their specific lineage (blood line) why does is it speak of people from "time past who were not a...

    Are you so unlearned of the Bible that you don't even understand that John the Baptist came in the spirit, not the body, of Elijah according to Christ? Here again you try to make the New prove the Old, rather than allowing the New to bring greater understanding of that which was of Old that was...

    So where does Jesus say His Kingdom is physical? Why does Christ say the Kingdom of God is within you? And why does Paul write the Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit? Point out the verse or passage that speaks of the Kingdom of God being physical! For that...

    Why do you think they were dispersed? Where does Peter or any other Apostle mention a "chosen race"?

    Yes, I suppose there are many like you who don't know what the Kingdom of God in this age of time is! That's why even though Christ gave us assurance that His Kingdom is NOT physical but spiritual, because you are looking for a physical Kingdom of God to appear on this earth, you CANNOT believe...

    But remember the diaspora is written to the church, which is of both Jew and Gentile together! When the persecuted began do you imagine that only the Jews were persecuted for belonging to the Way of life, and not Gentile Christians also? God chose the nation for a purpose, and His purpose for...

    The chosen of God are not chosen through Jacob! Faithful saints are the chosen through the CHOSEN ONE, who is CHRIST! That's what Scripture tells us. We have been chosen IN HIM, based not on ethnicity, but of the grace of God alone. Ephesians 1:4 (KJV) According as he hath chosen us in...

    Where does Peter write of this "chosen race"? I looked for that phrase throughout Scripture and could not find anywhere in Scripture where Paul or anyone else speaks of this "chosen race" you are so enamored with??? Perhaps you really don't know what the Bible says? How can the Kingdom of...

    No! The New is confirmed by using the Old Covenant prophecies that foretell of the Messiah who was to come had indeed has come when Jesus Christ came to earth a human! You try desperately to force the New to prove the Old! That's backwards thinking! The physical things of Old the prophets...

    The chosen people of God are peoples from every nation of the earth who are saved! There are only two types or groups of people on the face of the earth. They are those chosen who are or shall be saved, and those who are forever in unbelief. My mind is not poisoned against you! I am against...

    It's true! God did choose a race of people from before the foundation of the earth, they are the faithful race from HUMAN BEINGS! Those of faith throughout the whole human race were not chosen according to ethnicity, but according to God's grace through faith! I doubt C&Z have even the...

    Why do you single out the nation of Israel above every other nation of the earth? What promises of God has the nation of Israel not exclusively received? If you believe that Israel exclusively is yet to be blessed by God, you are a Zionist! You are a Zionist Dispensationalist. Christian...

    What prophet says that God will use "national Israel" to vindicate His holy name? How does the fact that Israel became a nation again prove that they nationally will be blessed by God more so than any other peoples of the earth?

    You're trying to prove the nation of Israel after the first advent of Christ have not received every single promise given exclusively to the nation of Old. Paul does not help you prove this Zionist mindset. Romans 3:1-3 (KJV) What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of...

    What in this verse is exclusively to the nation of Israel? Romans 9:4 (KJV) 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; How does the following passage help you to understand to...

    How do these passages prove God promised the nation of Israel something exclusively for them that He did not promise to every other nation of the world?

    What promise did God make to them (national Israel?) that He did not make to every nation of the earth? It cannot be the promised land of Cannan, because that promise was fulfilled completely when Joshua led the nation into Cannan, and the land was divided accordingly between the twelve tribes...

    Who do you think Paul is addressing this letter to? Who are beloved of God, called of Jesus Christ, the saints if not the Church that is in Rome? Paul is addressing Christians in Rome that are both Jews and Gentiles of faith together. The same people he refers to in 9-11 as the "Israel of...

    What did God choose them for? If the biological descendants of Jacob were those chosen to be saved, why did the multitude of them die in the wilderness in unbelief? Read Deuteronomy 4 in context and it's plain that God chose the biological seeds of Jacob to inherit the promised land. They...
