Thus says the Lord God,
'This is Jerusalem, I have set her in the midst
of the nations and the countries all around her'
Ezekiel 5:5
Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem! Praise the LORD! (Psalm 135:21)
ISRAEL
The Promised Land in the Bible given by Adonai (God) to Israel; a people of covenant He chose for Himself - holy and set apart - out of all the peoples of the earth. For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His special treasure (Psalm 135:4)
The people with whom Yeshua (Jesus) came to live and walk among us, revealing His Glory as the only Son of God. (John 1:14) Who gave His life on the cross for the forgiveness of sins and salvation, offering eternal life to all who would believe and receive Him. The place where He will return again in Glory to Jerusalem, gathering His believers from around the world to be with Him forever in His Kingdom and Love!
And He said to me,
'You are My servant, O Israel,
in whom I will be glorified'
Isaiah 49:3
“Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.” (Genesis 32:28)
Family
Israel was conceived out of God's holy covenant with one man, Abraham, and born a nation from his descendant's twelve sons. You see, God longed for a people with whom He could dwell; the idea was always FAMILY.
"I will make My home in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be My people ... I will be a true Father to you, and you will be My beloved sons and daughters', says the Lord Yahweh Almighty. (2 Cor 6:16, 18)
Yet for all Israel, even still His love burned for more family, and so He invites the rest of us from every tribe, people and nation into this Family through His Son Yeshua (Jesus), who removed all division between Jew and Gentile through His sacrifice on the cross, making us ONE FAMILY together in Him!
For Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jews and Gentiles into one people when, in His own body on the cross, He broke down the wall of hostility that separated us. (Ephesians 2:14)
The Jewish people are God's Covenant Family we as believers (Christians) are "grafted in" with ~ ONE together in Yeshua! This is a Family Gathering Place for fellowship, supporting and building stronger bonds of relationship between Christians and our beloved Jewish brothers and sisters in His Love. (Romans 11)
ONE New Man
Ephesians 2:13-22 13 But now you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to him through the blood of Christ. 14 For Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jews and Gentiles into one people when, in his own body on the cross, he broke down the wall of hostility that separated us. 15 He did this by ending the system of law with its commandments and regulations. He made peace between Jews and Gentiles by creating in himself one new people from the two groups. 16 Together as one body, Christ reconciled both groups to God by means of his death on the cross, and our hostility toward each other was put to death. 17 He brought this Good News of peace to you Gentiles who were far away from him, and peace to the Jews who were near. 18 Now all of us can come to the Father through the same Holy Spirit because of what Christ has done for us. 19 So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God's holy people. You are members of God's family. 20 Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. 21 We are carefully joined together in him, becoming a holy temple for the Lord. 22 Through him you Gentiles are also being made part of this dwelling where God lives by his Spirit.
Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I will return to Jerusalem with mercy, and there my house will be rebuilt (Zechariah 1:16)
