Some polls say Jews are richer, older, and better educated than gentiles. Why?

Not that this poster will listen, but for others that may listen to these posts this is entirely untrue and simple a matter of opinion. Jews look like Jews because they are Jews. smh Trying to discredit the Jewish people and take away their Jewishness is ridiculous and whether the poster knows it or not, is part of anti- Semitism against the Jews. No Christian should ever hold with anti -Semitism.

It was God who blinded their eyes.
I believe that they must accept Christ to be saved. They were saved in sleep before Bethlehem through a symbol of Christ, now they have simply rejected Christ and only a remnant are saved in Christ today.
But if we believe that, we must believe all scripture, and scripture tells us we have earthly rewards for following the Lord. In as much as they use scripture to plan their days, there us a natural outcome from those things they follow.
What is eternal about the old covenant tells us this. There is absolutely no scripture saying that works resulted in salvation in the old covenant, but it does say works resulted in good for man. The Jews try to live that. It is not saving them, for works do not save, but they are using the ways of the Lord to achieve blessings.

Sophie, you have made it clear you want nothing to do with even thinking about this post's questions, you only want the world to know your judgment of the Jews as people. We get that. So now, won't you just hang it up? It is a Christian site and Christians are told not to judge other people, you are judging people.

I wonder sometimes if I shouldn't have used a female name here. I think some countries speak a lot differently to women then we do on this side of the ocean. I meet up against them every once in a while and no, they don't silence me either! lol

After all those posts that I don't think helped anyone with understanding the ways of the Lord, have we come ahead at all about the blessings that polls say the Jewish race has?
It seems to me that God will not save them based on their works. They were saved in sleep before Bethlehem through symbolic Christ, now most deny that. I think it their works bring on a result of those works in the fleshly world. It is part of the spiritual law that our world is run by. The eternal part of the old covenant tells us this is true. Under the old covenant, it took blood given on the altar for salvation, works did not bring it about, but work was rewarded in this life.
I think to as an example, to love God above all things has a fleshly reward, just as to hate people has a fleshly reward. It is like if you rob a bank and steal you get a reward--you go to jail. That is true for the Christian and for those who are not Christian. Those who Christ forgives is does not face eternal death, those who don't ask forgiveness face eternal death, but the earthly reward for the crime is the same for both.
