"Phil2 answer about Israel and Judah"

http://britam.org/Purpose.html Here's one. I forget where it is but there was a specific prophecy where God said that His people would forget their feast days and no longer keep covenant and do His statutes and all that. It's probably in Hosea somewhere as he is calling them not my people etc. And their time of forgetting who they were was related to 2520 years before they would begin to find out who they were again. There are a lot of resources on the Internet but a lot of strange twists to be careful of in this field also so be cautioned.  
 
 
 TRUE ISRAEL
God provided Scriptural clues for Identifying Israel of old. There is no debate that ancient Israel fulfilled most of these marks and was identified by them. But even more exciting is the fact that these very same features help us to identify Israel today! Listed below are fifteen national, geographical and spiritual aspects out of hundreds of Scriptural clues that positively identify Israel. Ask yourself, what modern-day people do they identify?


5 NATIONAL ASPECTS
- Israel was to become a great and mighty nation.(Genesis 12:1-3)
- Israel was to become a vast multitude of people.(Genesis 22:17)
- Israel was to form a multitude of nations.(Genesis 17:4-6)
- Israel was to rule over other nations.(Deuteronomy 15;6)
- Israel was to be a blessing to all nations.(Genesis 22:18)
5 GEOGRAPHICAL ASPECTS
- Israel was to have a new home, other than Canaan Land.(2 Samuel 7:10)
- Israel's new land was to be inhabited by people gathered from many nations. (Ezekiel 38:8)
- Israel was to have a land of unwalled villages, without walls, bars or gates. (Ezekiel 38:11)
- Israel was to have a land of great agricultural wealth.(Deuteronomy 28:8-11)
- Israel's land was described as being the "camp of the saints." (Revelations 20:7-9)


5 SPIRITUAL ASPECTS
- Israel was to have a new religion and be saved by YHWH (the LORD).(Jeremiah 31:7,31-37).
- Israel was to carry the gospel to all the world. (Isaiah 49:3-6)
- Israel was to be the only nation given God's Law. (Psalm 147:19-20)
- Israel was to be blind for the most part to her identity. (Isaiah 42:16-19)
- Israel was to be called by a new name. (Isaiah 62:1,2)
If Israel exists today, as she must, there is only one people whom all these identifying marks fit -- and they certainly do not represent the modern-day "Jews." They do however, describe perfectly the Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Germanic, Scandinavian, and kindred peoples; the multitude of nations who became a great nation, with a new home, a new religion, and who have blessed the world with the gospel of Yahshua and numerous other blessings.
Indeed, Alfred Lilienthal (a "Jew") understood what most Celto-Saxons do not: Many Christians have much more Hebrew-Israelite blood in their veins than do their modern self-styled "Jewish" neighbors.

The Prophet Isaiah spoke of a time in his future when "the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, and the ears of those who hear will listen, and the mind of the hasty will discern truth." (Isaiah 32:3,4) It is the purpose of this short tract to assist in the continual fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy in regard to the true identity of Israel. We have very briefly demonstrated and provided evidence for the following three facts:
- God *has* a New Covenant plan for physical Israel today.
- Today's "Jews" *are not* Israelites, but instead impostors.
- The Celto-Saxon peoples *are* Israelites, the true descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.


You now have the rest of the story, the true story concerning Israel's modern-day identity; it is up to you what you do with it. It is our prayer that Isaiah's prophecy will be fulfilled in you, and that you will do your part in awakening other Israelites to their identity, and to their responsibility to God as His people.

 
Hosea 1:
 9.  Then said God, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.
 10.  Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.
 
Jeremiah 16:
 13.  Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; where I will not shew you favour.
 14.  Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be said, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
 15.  But, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
 16.  Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
 17.  For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.
 18.  And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.
 19.  O Lord, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
 20.  Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods?
 21.  Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is The Lord.
