Remember Matthew 15:24 that I quoted earlier?

Your father wrote mail to you, found in Romans to Philemon.

He also wrote mail to people who are not you, namely Israel, his first born son (Exodus 4:22, Jeremiah 31:9)

Common sense would tell you not to assume that every mail is written TO you, or ABOUT you.

When you accidentally open someone's mail to read, do you regard everything written to them as written to you too?

Clear enough?

How in the world do you come to that conclusion I am anti-Semitic, when I stated Israel is God's first born son, with the necessary scripture?

Haven't you heard there is no Jew or gentile look up the mystery of Christ and quit trying to separate the body.

Even during the OT? Jesus himself did the separation in Matthew 15:24.

The bottom line is that God created man and it was many, many years later God took a man from all his creation to give a job to, a job to be caretakers of His word that was being lost to man. You are taking that fact and making as if God wants only this special race to have His word, but God wants all men to accept His word.

No, I already stated that God wrote mail to us, that is found in Romans to Philemon.

But he wrote mail to others too, who are not us. We are not the center of the universe.

So your Bible only consist of the books from Romans to Philemon? If not why are you reading other people letters? It has got nothing to do with you.

Honestly, when you get all tangled up with your Israel, gentiles, new man, and your boundaries for sectioning off what is to be read as scripture and what isn't, you get lost.

First, as we read scripture we need to know who inspired it, what that inspiration consists of. What are the governing principles of the Lord? Then we look to see how a specific scripture expresses those principles, and we cannot assign something to the Lord that is out of His character.

From the first pages of scripture, we find the Lord created all man, and wants all men to be forgiven their sins so they can live forever with Him. n God set up the sacrificial system for this purpose, to keep the saints until Christ came.

God did not want the nations of the old testament to die of their sins, God hoped they would see His glory and righteousness through seeing it in the Hebrews he tried to train to express that. God did not want your "Israel only", God is the same God for the gentiles who rejected Him, as God is the God for the current Jews who think the Messiah is yet to come, just as He is the God of the saints.

You shouldn't be reading other people's private mails. That is just plain rude....

But God did not make it private, he preserved all in a complete book for us to read , but he wants us to rightly divide the word of truth (2 Tim)
