God's Chosen People ! cont
Now however at the time of Deut 7, the church was comprised of Chosen ethnic jews called Israel, but as time would go on it would be revealed that this Chosen People Israel whom God Loved was not only made up of ethnic jews, but of all people of different Nations, and that had been a Mystery, though hinted at in prophecies like Isa 49:6
6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
Lk 2:32
A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
Also the Mystery was that Elect Israel, Whom God Loved was not an ethnicity according to the flesh, but a spiritual seed, hence the seed of Israel Isa 45:25 and Gal 6:16
25 In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
Isa 45:25 This Glory of Israel is the same as the Glory of the Church Eph 3:21
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
