"Re: Who is a Jew"


Ezekiel 18:31 “Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?”
Ezekiel 36:26 “A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.”
 
WHO IS A JEW ?
 
Romans 2:28-29 “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: [29] But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”
 
Rev. 22:4 “And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.”
 
What is His name?  It is Christ the Messiah.  One who believes in Christ is a Christian. 
 
Acts 2:1-4 “And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. [2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. [3] And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. [4] And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
 
So who is a Jew?  These Jews and Gentile believers were first called Christians at Antioch. There is no such thing as replacement theology.
 
God Bless the reading of His word.  jfh
