Why The Jews Are Not God's Chosen People
”And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the
lake of fire” (Rev. 20:15).
Anyone who takes the above verse seriously, and at face value, can easily see
why non-Christian racial Jews are not God’s chosen people.
First, we see from this verse that no one--not one single human being--will
enter into eternal life whose name is not written down in the Lamb’s book of
life.
Second, it is obvious that those so unfortunate as to be cast into the lake of
fire, cannot be God’s chosen people--common sense and logic, as well as biblical
revelation forbids such a conception.
So what about the Jews?
Those who have died without knowing Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour over
the past two thousand years of church history, sadly, according to the Bible,
will be eternally lost. How then could they have been God’s chosen people up to
this point in time?
So, if the Jews who have died without knowing Christ throughout the past two
millenniums are not God’s chosen people, because of the fact that on the last
great Judgment Day they will be cast into the lake of fire, then what makes
anyone so sure that present-day non-Christian racial Jews are God’s chosen
people, either?
“The Jews are God’s chosen people” mentality of the modern American religious right is the outgrowth of a long absorption in the false teachings of Scofield/ Darbyism. Unscrupulous secular political Zionists, ironically, now find all we who were so previously duped quite easy to manipulate.
Think about it.
