are you aware that before Christ, During the 2nd century BC, the Edomites were forcibly converted to Judaism by the Hasmoneans, and were incorporated into the Jewish nation. so Paul's message in Romans still accounts for 100% Jews as a heritage. don't you know how to research and get FACTS?
But because of this "conversion" (which God warned against), the Edomites gained status and influence in the Judean society, eventually taking over the political and religious power of the region. This is how Herod became king of Judea and how they became the mainstream group in the Pharisee sect. Edom essentially became the Jewish upper class, and Israel the common people.

This division got again reflected when Jesus came to the world. The common people / Israel accepted Jesus while the upper class / Edom rejected Him; just as God had blessed Jacob and cursed Esau in the past, Jacob now blessed Him and Esau cursed Him. The reason was that the Edomites actually wanted to take revenge and destroy Israel, and as they knew Jesus was the Messiah of the Israelites, they attempted to kill Him as soon as He was born. After they failed and Jesus began to convert the people of Israel, they went on to conspire against Him. Jesus knew about them as well, and this is why He called them hypocrites, brood of vipers and children of Satan. Furthermore, the Pharisees openly admitted to Jesus that they were not Israelites, when they mentioned they were never slaves to anybody.

After the resurrection of Jesus, the Israelites became the early Christians, and the Edomites the religious Jews. After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, both the Israelites and the Edomites went into exile and spread around the world. The Edomites settled mostly in Khazaria and North Africa, later in Europe. The Khazar Edomites and African Edomites eventually became what we know today as the Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jews.

And where is the proof modern "Israel" is not Israel? The answer is in prophecy:

Isaiah 65:15 You shall leave your name to my chosen for a curse,
and the Lord God will put you to death,
but his servants he will call by another name,


As you read, God will give Israel another name. How in the world can a state named "Israel" claim to be the Biblical Israel, when God prophesied Israel will have ANOTHER name???

The op is nonsensical.

The war he is speaking abut can not and will not occur until some things unfold.. Until then, as Jesus said, there will be wars and rumors of wars. but the end is not yet.

as for Israel. the op and others need to read and study Lev 26. God is not done with Israel. Pul said in romans 11 they are to be beloved because of the election but hated concerning the gospel.

We should love them like all people.. as they need the gospel.. But at the same time, Not be puffed up. As in a day in the future. they will repent.

you can reason all you like but Paul still called them jews that were sent a delusion during the gentile era. i think it would be best if you believed Paul and not your own reasoning.

Read my post, please.
i did. it's mostly opinion with some fact. Christ changed everything on the Cross. even edomites are allowed to accept Christ and be one of us. nowhere in the New testament do we see them being condemned like YOU chose to do. i will remain faithful to the Inspired words Paul gave to us about the Jews of his day. Esau and Jacob share the same DNA as Isaac and Abraham. and once the edomites were integrated, the bloodline became one. they are Jews!

I never said an Edomite can't be saved. I said, the people who call themselves "Jews" today are not Israel, because they don't come from Jacob, and thus can't claim to be the biblical people of Israel. The very fact that they call their state "Israel" actually disproves their theory even further.

nowhere does it say Jacob's bloodline was scattered until it no longer exists. Esau and Jacob have the "same" blood. the DNA is 99.9% identical with .01% being hair color/smooth vs hairy skin, eye color, weight, height etc. they are the same people.

PARB...post and rubber band.
You take a 2ft long rubber band and you loop it over the top end of a fence post. You pull it hard and then relax it. You repeat this 1 million times. After all this, what have you accomplished? Nothing.
This guy's a PARB. It has been my experience that Jew haters are that way because they choose to be.
Israel is the Jewish state, installed by God. The Jews called it Israel, because they believe the old testament promise of God to one day return the house of Israel and reunite them with the house of Judah. As per Ezekiel 37.
No matter how well-meaning one may be, pushing the view that today's Jews are not Jews is pushing the Satanic agenda. Which is to prevent the commonwealth of Israel from being united in the levant and our King from returning and setting up His millennial kingdom.
There is no man as blind as the blind man who believes he sees.

how do you know they are not jews?

Where is the remnant that God promised?

How can the jews rebuild a temple for the man of sin to commit the AOD jesus told us about?

Oh dear...
James 1:1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
Esau and Jacob have the "same" blood. the DNA is 99.9% identical with .01% being hair color/smooth vs hairy skin, eye color, weight, height etc. they are the same people.
And you still don't listen. Only the descendants of Jacob are Israel. Israel was the name God gave to JACOB. What don't you understand here?

My question is, how can a state called "Israel" be the Biblical Israel installed by God,
if God prophesied Israel was going to get ANOTHER NAME???

Isaiah 65:15 You shall leave your name to my chosen for a curse,
and the Lord God will put you to death,
but his servants he will call by another name,

i said scattered until they don't exist. i see how you purposefully ignored that portion.

i am saying modern day jews are partially descendants of Jacob. testing bloodline to differ between esau and jacob is foolishness when they have the same DNA.

I like how in order to get to Isaiah 65:15 YOU HAVE TO IGNORE VERSE 9
9 I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, an heir of My mountains from Judah. My chosen ones will inherit it, and My servants will dwell there.

And how does this verse disprove what I said?

and Verse 16 explains verse 15 WILL NOT HAPPEN:
16 So he who says a bracha in the land will be blessed by the God of truth, and he who swears in the land will swear by the God of truth. For the former troubles are forgotten, because they are hidden from My sight!

How? I don't read anything that sounds like "cancelling" the former verse.

jesus came as a Jew, that must make your skin crawl! and guess what, being in the Middle East from Mesopotamia, he was probably very dark skinned too. a dark skinned jew is your Lord and Savior. how's that flip your lid?
