Prophecy and the True Israel Part 1

  What does the Bible mean when it uses the term "Israel"? Who is an Israelite? Go back to the beginning, Israel began in the loins of Abraham. What does it mean that Israel was chosen? What was it that God put into the heart of Abraham that brought forth the Israelite nation. Basically it was a call to a mission. He was specifically chosen in order that, through him, ALL families of the earth should be blessed. God never chose one family just to choose them and say "Now you're special". God chose one family in order that all families might know his blessing. Jesus is the wrapping up of Genesis 12. From Genesis 12 to Matthew 28 is just one long continuing line. The Glory of Israel is here, therefore go to all the nations! It's not a new religion, just the continuation of the faith of Abraham.
