When the New Jerusalem is established by the Father, then will the true Israel be known. It will be glorious.
“These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11:13-14, 16‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all,

and to the spirits of just men made perfect, And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12:22-24‬ ‭

“For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭3:26-27, 29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

God surely knows the end from the beginning, ans this is well interpreted. Jesus kingdom there shall be no end to it. Neither shall we die anymore because we will be wearing immortality.
Amen, He sure does know the end from the beginning, while false gods aren't sure what exactly tomorrow will bring.

Paganism often "predicts" the arrival of a counterfeit "messiahs", such as Tammuz, Horace, Shiva, Maitreya, etc., because of Genesis 3:15. Satan knew by this verse that one day the Savior would arrive, so he made sure to pepper the landscape with false messiahs to ensure the truth would be obscured by plenty of lies. My sister once told me, "Aw, Jesus is nothin but a bargain basement copy of the Egyptian god Horace".

However, Jesus stands as the only true Messiah by virtue of the fact that, while no other false system dares to even attempt to predict the timing of the arrival of their counterfeits, no less than TWO passages in Scripture pinpoints the exact timing of Jesus' arrival: Ezekiel 21 identifies what Empire would be reigning when He came (Rome) and Daniel 9 pinpoints the very YEAR He would come, 27 A.D.
