'i m claiming". What do you understand that I am claiming? You accused me of not believing Paul, that is what YOU are claiming, I am claiming that God is our Holy God the same Forever giving grace, hope, and forgiveness. Now, what is your objection to that? The post is over a difference I see in opinions about God including gentiles in the people in the people He communicated with in the OT. I would like to have the people who think God only communicated with Jews in the OT explain who they think this. I think God has always accepted anyone who accepts Him and give scripture backing that thought up.

In Ephesians it speaks of people who accept fleshly circumcision, and Christ's salvation and I'm accused of not believing Paul if I believe in God's grace, hope, and forgiveness.

My first point to you was that "During the OT, Gentiles must be a blessing to the Jews, or be a Jew, in order to be blessed by God. ".

If you disagree with that, explain why, instead of making silly accusations on what else I believe in.

The two verses that you quoted explain the situation. I bolded the key words.

There is one law for "you" (Israel) and for the non-Israelites who sojourn among Israel. The Law was not given to the gentiles who did not sojourn among Israel.



The Law was for Israel, not for the gentiles. Gentile Christians were never under the Law; not before salvation, and not after.

The gentiles are given a new ceremonial law. 1 Corinthian 11.

God is not served by human hands in any way shape or form. The law was for all of mankind .

All of mankind is represented by Jewish flesh .Unbelievers (no faith) believers as well as those who do hear the gospel and glorify God not seen.

The flesh of a Jew used in parables is made up of two gentile nations, the Hittites and the Amorites. The grandparents of Abraham. He is used to typify our one father in heaven as the father of many nations (everyone)

The Law was for born again Israel, the bride of Christ. She was renamed Christian by God in the book of Acts.A proper name for the residents of the heavenly city named after its founder Christ. ...prepared as the bride.

At that time, we were without Christ and without hope in this world (Ephesians 2:11-12)

Your understanding of Ephesians 2:11-12 seems to be lacking.

None of this is directly relevant to my post. Is there a relevant point you wished to make?
