Chapter 11

The Citizens of the Kingdom of Yahuah

 

Introduction

 

In this chapter we are going to take a very clear look at exactly “who” inhabits the Kingdom of Yahuah. Is it anyone who simply utters the name “Jesus Christ”? That is what we are taught! All that is required to go to “heaven” by the false religion of Christianity; just accept “Jesus” into your heart and you are saved; so they say. The reality is that “accepting Jesus into your heart” means seating the image of the false messiah on the throne as Yahuah. By keeping Easter over Passover you are slaughtering the abominable pig on the Altar of Yahuah. Doing such a thing is a death sentence. That is committing the Abomination of Desolation as I demonstrate in my book The Antichrist Revealed!.

So then, who are the “citizens of the Kingdom of Yahuah”? Well, they are the chosen sons of Yahuah taken from among the House of Israel and from among the House of Judah. They are those who:

  • Have been chosen from the bloodline of Israel called Remnant Israel
  • Raise the standard of His Kingdom, the Sign of the Sabbath
  • Have the protective Seal of Yahuah between their eyes
  • Have been delivered from the Law of Sin and Death in covenant with Yahusha and now live according to the Law of the Spirit of Life
  • Have had their bodies transposed from physical to spiritual and have been given eternal life and a place within the Kingdom of Yahuah to govern the Universe

In short, they are those who have followed THE WAY or example set by Yahusha their King and elder brother and they have been Signed/Sealed/Delivered into His Kingdom.

In the previous chapters of this book we have demonstrated that only those who keep the Sabbath enter His Kingdom. We have demonstrated that only those who have the mark i.e. The Seal of Yahuah enter His Kingdom. In this chapter I want to clearly define Remnant Israel and demonstrate that remnant is chosen from within the bloodline of Abraham that runs through Isaac and then Jacob exclusively.

When speaking of Yahuah’s chosen Elect, Sha’ul referred to them as Remnant Israel. We must have a solid understanding of exactly “who” are the chosen sons of Yahuah who receive His inheritance. We are going to look at exactly who these chosen sons are and what Yahuah gives to His sons as “gifts”.

Spiritual Israel is a subset of the physical descendants of Jacob (who was renamed Israel) called Remnant Israel. Remnant Israel are those descendants of Abraham through Isaac and Jacob who are so chosen by Yahuah and know His Name, have a heart for His Law (written on their hearts), and who accept the sacrifice made by Yahusha as the Passover Lamb. In short they are Signed, Sealed, and Delivered into the Kingdom of Yahuah.

 

 

 

Yahuah’s Plan to Fulfill His Promises to Abraham

 

Before we can truly understand who Remnant Israel will be, we need at least a basic understanding of both the Abrahamic Covenant and the Plan of Yahuah to fulfill it. Once we have a firm grasp on this plan of Yahuah’s to bring about the blessings of Abraham, we can begin to shed light on the Apostle Sha’ul’s mission to take the gospel to the “Gentiles”.  

The Apostle Sha’ul’s claim that he was tasked to take the gospel to the Gentiles landed him in direct conflict with the other disciples and the Pharisees of his time. The other disciples and the Pharisees knew that Yahuah’s explicit revelation was that only those from the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob were to be chosen as sons of Yahuah. The way the Christian Church teaches Sha’ul’s mission also puts Sha’ul in direct conflict with Yahuah’s prophets and Yahusha’s Great Commission.

If the Christian Church’s Pauline Doctrine is correct, then Sha’ul is a false teacher and he contradicted every aspect of the Plan of Yahuah for His sons. Sha’ul struggled with this accusation when faced with the Jews of his day and the other disciples. They all knew Yahuah’s sons would descend exclusively from the bloodline of Jacob (Israel). In the end, however, Sha’ul was able to convince the Jews of his day and the disciples that he was not a false teacher and was, in fact, called to “the Gentiles”. How did Sha’ul convince them? This chapter is going to show you exactly how Sha’ul changed their minds and prove that Sha’ul was indeed called to “the Gentiles”.

In this chapter I am going

  • to prove that the Apostle Sha’ul was unique among the disciples in his understanding of the Plan of Yahuah.
  • to prove that Sha’ul was in fact uniquely qualified to do exactly as Yahusha commanded and “reclaim the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel” who were lost among the Gentile nations.
  • demonstrate that Sha’ul knew exactly what he was doing taking the Gospel to the gentiles and how Sha’ul recognized the Lost House of Israel among the pagan societies (they lived in obedience to Yahusha’s commands)
  • show that Sha’ul clearly taught that Remnant Israel was a small remnant taken exclusively from among the House of Israel and the House of Judah.

First, we must establish the history and prophetic words of Yahuah concerning the Nation of Israel. Sha’ul addresses these prophecies directly and used them to justify his actions. If we are to understand Sha’ul’s writing, we too must have an understanding of the prophecies he referenced to support his writings.

Sha’ul was very well versed in the Torah and Prophets and supported all of what he taught using them. So to understand the things that Sha’ul taught, we too must have a firm understanding of the Prophets he used to justify what he taught! We will go back and put Sha’ul’s teaching into context and overcome the false doctrine of Replacement Theology that the “church replace Israel”.

 

 

 

The History of the Nation of Israel

The descendants of Jacob were defined by his 12 sons. They descended into 12 tribes of peoples. These 12 tribes became a nation, the Nation of Israel. Israel was one nation under one King with one capital city and one Temple. That nation later was divided and went to war against each other and split into two Kingdoms. The sons of Yahuah literally went to war over the “blessings of Abraham” and established two kings, two capital cities, and even two Temples!

 

The Birthright Blessing vs. The Scepter Blessing

The blessings Yahuah gave to Abraham were divided by Jacob among his 12 sons. These blessings were summarized into two major blessings known as the Scepter Blessing and the Birthright Blessing.

  • The Scepter Blessing was given to Jacob’s son Judah (from whom the Jews descend).
  • The Birthright Blessing was given to Jacob’s son Joseph by proxy through Joseph’s two sons Ephraim and Manasseh.

These two blessings literally created “enmity” between the 12 Tribes of Israel and they split into two houses and eventually two kingdoms:

  • The Northern Kingdom of Israel (called in prophecy the House of Israel) which were 9 tribes. The “Birthright Blessing” of Abraham was given to the House of Israel to become many great nations.
  • The Southern Kingdom of Judah (called in prophecy the House of Judah or the Jews) which were 3 tribes. The “Scepter Blessing” of Abraham was given to the House of Judah that through Abraham all the nations of the Earth would be blessed. A promise of the coming Messiah.

This “enmity” between the two houses angered Yahuah and it was the very reason Yahuah sent pagan empires to conquer both kingdoms and send them into captivity:

  • The Northern Kingdom of Israel (House of Israel) was defeated and sent into Assyrian captivity. They never returned out of captivity as Yahuah divorced them completely and dispersed the House of Israel over the entire globe. It was through this process that Israel becomes many great nations in fulfillment of the Birthright Blessing Yahuah promised Abraham.
  • The Southern Kingdom of Judah (House of Judah) was taken into Babylonian captivity, came out of captivity with the Scepter Blessing to rebuild the temple, and produce the Messiah, and were later dispersed by the Roman Empire in AD70.

Yahuah then sent His Prophets to each of the two houses to speak to them and tell what their end shall be:

Isaiah 46

8 "Remember this, fix it in mind, take it to heart, you rebels. 9 Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am Yahuah, and there is no other (Elohim); I am Yahuah, and there is none like me. 10 I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.

When defining the true sons of Yahuah we must know Yahuah’s purpose and “what is still to come”. The Apostle Sha’ul was an expert in the Torah and Prophets (a Pharisee) and he was well aware of both and taught exactly what Yahuah prophesied.

 

Remnant Israel

Spiritual or Remnant Israel are those very few chosen taken from among both the House of Israel (who were called “Gentiles” because they were living among the pagan Gentiles nations and lost their identity) and the House of Judah (called “the Jews” who never lost their identity).

We know that the children of Israel or descendants of Abraham became many great nations and a multitude of people covering the entire globe as Yahuah promised Abraham. This fact was confirmed to Moses that all people on earth would be divided by the sons of Israel:

Deuteronomy 32:8

8 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

We also know from historical and archeological records the migration patterns and ancestry of many nations and peoples on Earth and that they had their beginning with Israel. The "Jews" are a very small nation and do not comprise all of "Israel" and in no way have fulfilled the Birthright Blessing. They are but a small subset of physical Israel. And only a small number of Jews make up His Chosen Remnant, along with a small number of “Gentiles” as they came to be called from whom a number of the House of Israel will be taken. Together, these two small groups, a remnant from both houses, will be called to be sons of Yahuah and they are known as Remnant Israel or Spiritual Israel or the "sons of Elohim" by His gracious choice.

So the fact is that Yahuah's sons are scattered among ALL nations on Earth at this time and descend from the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob.

These Elect will be called out of all nations at the end. They will literally be physical descendants of Israel (Jacob), but THEY WILL HAVE LOST THEIR IDENTITY (and not know they are of the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob) and they will be “called” Gentiles:

Deuteronomy 32:26

 26 I said, I would scatter them into (all) corners (of Earth), I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men (no one would know they are truly Israelites):

Yahuah did divorce the House of Israel but only to “plant” them as seeds around the Globe to grow into many great nations. Later they would be recalled back to Him. Over the years of captivity then dispersion across the Globe, Yahuah’s name was changed to “the LORD” or “Ba’al” coming out of Babylonian Captivity and His name was profaned using titles such as LORD and God:

Jeremiah 23:26-27

How long is this there in the heart of the prophets, the prophets of lies; yea, the prophets of the deceit of their own heart? They plot to cause My people to forget My name by their dreams which they tell, each one to his neighbor, even as their fathers have forgotten My name for Baal.

Even today we call Yahuah “the LORD” which means Ba’al or Master. But, Yahuah always had a plan to reclaim a small remnant from among both Houses and restore His Holy Name. This is one key as to “who” are those who make up Remnant Israel. Yahuah spoke through His Prophets that He would CAUSE them (Remnant Israel) to remember His Holy Name even though every effort would be made by man to delete all references to His Name even from the Bible:

Jeremiah 16:21

And, behold, I will make them know; this time I will cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is Yahuah.

It is only with this background in Yahuah’s Plan told through His prophets concerning the House of Israel and the House of Judah that we can understand the New Testament; specifically Sha’ul’s writings.

 

 

 

Replacement Theology? Not in my Bible!

 

The Christian Church teaches that anyone, whether they be descendants of Abraham or not, can be “grafted to the tree”. Christianity teaches a very false “Greek” appropriate doctrine overturning Yahuah’s choice of the bloodline of Abraham thru Jacob. This false doctrine is based on “implied doctrines” and a complete rewriting of Sha’ul’s teachings that amount to clear violations of sound explicit doctrine.

This is called “Replacement Theology” where the pagan Christian Church replaced the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob known as Israel as the chosen ones. In order to teach these lies, Christianity had to make all the previous covenants void and abolish the Old Testament entirely. Christianity teaches many false doctrines within the context of Replacement Theology such as
New Testament replaced the Old Testament

  • The New Covenant replaced all other covenants
  • Christmas replaced the Festival of Tabernacles
  • Easter replaced Passover
  • Pagan holidays replaced Yahuah’s Holy Days
  • The Trinity replaced the Shema
  • Jesus replaced Yahusha
  • Sunday replaced the Sabbath
  • Rome replaced Jerusalem as “the Eternal City of Yahuah”
  • Christian Priests/Preachers/Pastors replaced the Royal Priesthood of Remnant Israel
  • The list goes on indefinitely

Replacement Theology is a lie and not at all scriptural. The Truth found in scripture is that the House of Israel was given a certificate of divorce and was torn from the tree and dispersed. That is why they had to be “grafted back into the tree”. All the prophets of Yahuah foretell of the House of Israel being re-united with the House of Judah and “grafted back” into the family tree of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob that they descend from. These prophecies are known as the Re-Unification of the Nation of Israel. It is from among that re-unified Nation of Israel that a small remnant is chosen to rule the universe as sons of Yahuah. They are Remnant Israel.



 

Sha’ul Taught the Prophets and Yahuah’s Plan

 

Sha’ul, being a Pharisee, was literally a “LAWyer” and expert in the Torah and Prophets. It would take just such an expert, a man uniquely trained to understand the entire revelation of Yahuah to properly teach the role of the Messiah in reclaiming the remnant sons of Yahuah from across the globe. When addressing Yahuah’s sovereign choice of a remnant from the bloodline of Jacob (Israel), Sha’ul quoted the Prophet Isaiah where Yahuah foretold it would be only a very small remnant taken only from among the bloodline of Israel. NOT ALL physical descendants of Israel will be saved. ONLY a remnant taken from among both Houses...

Romans 9 -  Yahuah's Sovereign Choice of the Remnant

27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel:  "Though the number of the Israelites (both Houses) is like the sand by the sea, only the remnant will be saved."

It was prophesied by Isaiah (and many other major prophets including Yahusha), and confirmed by Sha’ul; ONLY a remnant from the bloodline of Israel, the descendants of Abraham, would be saved and begotten as sons of Yahuah through transposition (resurrection).

 

Sha’ul also confirms that it is ONLY Abraham’s descendants that the Messiah “helps” in Yahusha’s role as High Priest of Israel and no one else and that they are all of the

 same bloodline or family:

Hebrews 2

10 In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that Yahuah, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering. 11Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Yahusha is not ashamed to call them brothers. 12 He says,

“I will declare your name to my brothers; in the presence of the congregation I will sing your praises.”

13And again, “I will put my trust in him.”

And again he says, “Here am I, and the children (of Israel) Yahuah has given me.”

14 Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. 16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants. 17 For this reason he had to be made like his brothers (in the bloodline promised to Abraham) in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest (of Israel) in service to Yahuah, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people (that descend from the bloodline of Abraham in context).

 

 

 

The Re-Unification of the Nation of Israel

 

The major prophecy concerning this truth; that the two houses had been divided and would be re-united in the end is found in Ezekiel Chapter 37. Ezekiel was given this vision after the Nation of Israel was divided and went to war against each other. The Nation of Israel was divided into the Northern Kingdom of Israel (the House of Israel) and the Southern Kingdom of Judah (the House of Judah). We see Yahuah’s plan all along was to reclaim the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel and re-unite them with the House of Judah (the Jews).

Ezekiel 37 - Reunion of Judah and Israel

15 The word of Yahuah came again to me saying, 16 “And you, son of man, take for yourself one stick and write on it, ‘For Judah and for the sons of Israel, his companions’ (known as the House of Judah); then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the House of Israel, his companions.’ 17 Then join them for yourself one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand. 18 When the sons of your people (descendants of Israel) speak to you saying, ‘Will you not declare to us what you mean by these?’ 19 say to them, ‘Thus says Yahuah your Elohim, “Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions (the House of Israel); and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah (the House of Judah), and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand.”’ 20 The sticks on which you write will be in your hand before their eyes. 21 Say to them, ‘Thus says Yahuah your Elohim, “Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the (pagan Gentile) nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; 22 and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations and no longer be divided into two kingdoms. 23 They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places (among the Gentiles) in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their Elohim. 

The House of Israel is Only “Called” Gentiles

When Sha’ul discusses this topic and speaks of “Israel” he is clearly referring to the House of Judah who was in the land of Israel at that time. He refers to them (the Jews) the way we do today as “Israel”. But the House of Israel is not the House of Judah. We must understand this as it is critical. The House of Israel had been dispersed among the nations after being sent into Assyrian Captivity. The House of Israel was not in the land of Israel in New Testament times, only the Jews (the House of Judah) were in Israel coming out of Babylonian Captivity and they were called “Israel”. The House of Israel was called “Gentiles”. A little confusing, I admit, but made even more so by the false teachings of the Christian Church.

We must know prophecy and the Torah if we are to have any hope of understanding the New Testament. Especially Sha’ul’s writings as he was an expert in the Torah and Prophets. So we must shed the proper light of Yahuah’s Prophets on Sha’ul’s writings to understand them especially since Sha’ul quoted them as justification for his teaching. Sha’ul tends to write over the heads of his readers in many cases and especially in the case of the Christian Church who has denied the Plan of Yahuah foretold by His Prophets and abolished it.

When Sha’ul is describing the hardening of the House of Judah (Jews) “until such time as the number of Gentiles”, which is what Sha’ul calls the House of Israel, could come in, a little wisdom is required and a little background in Yahuah’s plan. The word “Gentiles” simply means “not Jewish”. So by definition the House of Israel could be and was “called” Gentiles:

Merriam Webster Dictionary

1gen·tile

noun \ˈjen-ˌtī(-ə)l\

: a person who is not Jewish

 

Pagan Gentiles are those not of the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob. Then there are those who are “called Gentiles” but really aren’t. Those “called Gentiles” are actually from the House of Israel who are not Jewish and lived among the pagan Gentiles and lost their identity. Even those who were descendents of Israel living among the Gentiles had no idea of their lineage and thought themselves to be “Gentiles”:

Hosea 1

10 Yet the number of the sons of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured or numbered; And in the place (pagan Gentile lands) where it is said to them (not that it is true it is only said of them), “You are not My people,” It will be said to them (after I reclaim them to their rightful inheritance), “You are the sons of the living Elohim.” 11 And the sons of Judah (House of Judah) and the sons of Israel (House of Israel) will be gathered together,

Sha’ul literally quotes Hosea 1 to justify everything he says. In Sha’ul’s writing on the topic of Remnant Israel, Sha’ul is referring to those scattered among the Gentile nations who had lost their identity, as the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. You know, the ones Yahusha exclusively said he came to reclaim in Matthew 15:24 and again in the Great Commission Matthew 10:6. This is very important, the House of Israel by definition, not being of the House of Judah or Jews, are “called” Gentiles and it is said of them “they are not Yahuah’s people” when in reality… they always were and still are just that… physical descendants of Jacob!

So the “Jews” or the House of Judah were hardened toward the Messiah until the remnant of the House of Israel from among the Gentile nations joined their number and “in that way all of Israel, both Houses, would be saved”.  This is what Sha’ul is teaching in his writings as we will see. The doctrines of the Christian Church are based on the Spirit of Error while Sha’ul’s foundation was firmly planted on the revealed Plan of Yahuah and he proved that by quoting from the Prophets concerning the Re-Unification of the Nation of Israel.

We must always keep in mind that Yahuah is Elohim and Yahusha is His Messiah. No man, not even the lofty Apostle Sha’ul, or the Pope, or anyone can contradict Yahuah and Yahusha. What Yahuah and Yahusha say and confirm is truth. If Sha’ul contradicts them in any way he is to be related to the trash bin of history as a FALSE TEACHER. Many have come to believe just that, that Sha’ul is a false teacher. Those who believe that cannot reconcile Sha’ul’s writing and have fallen for the lies told of Sha’ul by the Christian Church. The Christian Church’s Pauline Doctrines they teach are lies. The Christian Church teaches Sha’ul literally created another religion to justify their pagan Babylonian lie.

This is far from true as I will prove and clearly demonstrate. Not just in regards to the Gentiles replacing Israel but also concerning the abolition of the Law and the entire Replacement Theology of the pagan church founded in Rome. Sha’ul did not teach either doctrine, but rather taught and confirmed what was declared by Yahuah and confirmed through Yahusha that Remnant Israel was confined to the bloodline of Jacob.

 

Yahusha came only for the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel

Yahusha had made it clear that he came first as the Messiah ben Joseph, which is the Messiah to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, not the Jews who were of the House of Judah. Yahusha fulfilled the prophecies of the Suffering Servant defined by the Spring Feast rehearsals. Messiah ben Joseph is the Messiah to the descendants of Joseph who are the House of Israel.

Yahusha returns as the Messiah ben David for the House of Judah or the Jews and fulfills the Fall Feasts that define, and are rehearsals, for the second coming. Yahusha did not, as Christianity teaches, come for pagan gentiles such as Canaanites, but to reclaim only the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel from AMONG the pagan gentiles.

Matthew 15

21 Leaving that place, Yahusha withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman (pagan gentile not from either the House of Judah or the House of Israel) from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.” 23 Yahusha did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.” 24 He answered, I was sent only to the lost sheep of (the House of) Israel.” 25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said. 26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children (of Abraham)’s bread and toss it to the dogs (those not chosen or pagan gentiles).”

Again, when sending out his disciples and giving the Great Commission we see Yahusha make it clear that he came to reconcile both houses of Israel by reclaiming the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel and then re-uniting them with the House of Judah (Jews).

Matthew 10

5 These twelve Yahusha sent out after instructing them: “Do not go in the way of the (pagan) Gentiles, and do not enter any city of the Samaritans; 6 but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And as you go, preach, saying, ‘the kingdom of heaven is at hand.’

 

What does “the way of the Gentiles” mean?

Christianity doesn’t teach us anything about the true meaning of Matthew 10 because it directly contradicts Christianity’s Pauline Doctrine that the New Covenant is now open to all pagan Gentiles outside of the bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob. Yahusha didn’t seem to agree, he agreed with the Abrahamic Covenant which was and is still in effect.

What Yahusha was saying is do not go to Gentiles who outwardly display pagan ways. Rather do as Yahuah commanded and take the Gospel to those who by their very nature KEEP HIS LAW as Yahuah had promised He would “write the Law on the hearts” of The House of Israel and they would respond to the message “the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand”. The Apostle Sha’ul understood this as we will see.

Was Yahusha saying “do not go the physical direction of the Gentiles?” Or, was Yahusha being consistent when he used the expression “the way” meaning the religious example displayed by pagan Gentiles. Yahusha used the term “the Way” to describe the righteous example he set that we are to follow:

John 14:6

Yahusha said to him, "I am (my example is) the way, and (my example is) the truth (the true way), and (my example is) the life (it leads to eternal life); no one comes to the Father but through Me (the example I set).

This is confirmed in 1 John. My comments in parenthesis to clarify, in context, and I correct all the passive voice and personal pronouns used that confuse the topic at hand:

1 John 2

3 By this we know that we have come to know Him (Yahuah), if we keep His commandments (Yahusha has no commandments see verse 7 below). 4 The one who says, “I have come to know Him (Yahuah),” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him; 5 but whoever keeps His word (the Torah, the NT did not exist for another 300 years), in him the love of Yahuah has truly been perfected (Psalm 19:7 “the Law of Yahuah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Yahuah is sure, making wise the simple”). By this we know that we are in (covenant with) Yahusha: 6 the one who says he abides (in covenant with) Yahusha ought himself to walk in the same manner as Yahusha walked (follow the Way set by the example of Yahusha’s life by keeping Yahuah’s Commandments). 7 Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard (the old commands which is THE WORD OF YAHUAH or THE TORAH). 8 On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you (ok… here is the only “new command”, he restates verses 5-6 above to follow Yahusha’s example in keeping the Law as the only new command) Which (keeping the Law) is true in Yahusha and in you (as you do as he did), because the darkness (of Law without Grace) is passing away and the true Light (of Law with Grace) is already shining …

I have written to you, fathers, because you know Yahuah who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of Yahuah (the Torah) abides in you (the Law is written in your hearts), and you have overcome the evil one.

We know the House of Israel was scattered among the pagan Gentile nations and Yahusha was well aware of that fact. So we can immediately dismiss the idea that Yahusha was saying “don’t go to the Gentile nations”. So how are we to understand Yahusha’s statement “Do not go in the way of the Gentiles” in context of commanding us to “go to the lost sheep of the House of Israel” who were scattered among the Gentile nations?

The way of the gentiles” is a term used often in the Bible and in every case it speaking of the religious practices of the pagan Gentiles it is not referring to a physical path or destination. Below we see the same phrase “the way of the Gentiles” referring to the religious practices or those who display the religious practices of pagans:

Jeremiah 10:2

New International Version
This is what the LORD says: "Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the heavens, though the nations are terrified by them.

 

NET Bible
The LORD says, "Do not start following pagan religious practices. Do not be in awe of signs that occur in the sky even though the nations hold them in awe.

GOD'S WORD® Translation
This is what the LORD says: Don't learn the practices of the nations. Don't be frightened by the signs in the sky because the nations are frightened by them.

Jubilee Bible 2000
Thus hath the LORD said, Do not learn the way of the Gentiles, and do not fear the signs of heaven, even though the Gentiles fear them.

So, “the way of the Gentiles” means those who display “the pagan practices of the Gentiles”.

Below is how Matthew 10; The Great Commission should read with the intent and in context of the revealed plan of Yahuah:

Matthew 10

5 These twelve Yahusha sent out after instructing them: “Do not go to those who practice pagan religions, and do not enter any city of the Samaritans; 6 but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel scattered among the Gentiles. These lost sheep are those who display the Way of Yahuah by keeping His Law instinctively; because Yahuah has written the Law on their hearts. 7 And as you go, preach, saying, ‘the kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ And those whom Yahuah has chosen will respond.

The Apostle Sha’ul was the only one to understand Yahusha’s instructions properly because he understood the Torah and Prophets.

 

The Apostle Sha’ul’s Dilemma

Sha’ul had a dilemma in that he was commissioned to take the Gospel to the pagan Gentile nations in order to call out those of the House of Israel lost among them. The problem Sha’ul had was that the Jews and even the disciples did not understand what Yahusha had truly said. So Sha’ul had some “explaining” to do! Explain he did and we are going to dissect his explanation in detail.

Sha’ul “called” the lost sheep Gentiles just as Yahuah foretold. Sha’ul couldn’t identify them and the lost sheep themselves had (and even today have) no idea who they are. Yahuah caused them to lose all knowledge of their identity and caused their remembrance to cease from among men.

Deuteronomy 32:26

 26 I said, I would scatter them into (all) corners (of Earth), I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men (no one would know they are truly Israelites):

Sha’ul “called” the House of Judah “Israel” because they were living in the land of Israel and citizens of the Roman province known as Israel. We must know scripture concerning who was who in order to understand what Sha’ul was saying as it gets a little confusing. But Sha’ul knew Yahuah had also promised to reverse this situation and then cause them to remember His Name and write His Law on their hearts:

Jeremiah 16:21

And, behold, I will make them know; this time I will cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is Yahuah.

The other disciples, being common uneducated types, failed to understand these things as only Sha’ul was an expert in the Torah and Prophets. Taking the Gospel to the “Gentiles” became a major point of contention as the other disciples did not understand that the House of Israel was lost and “called” Gentiles. They accused Sha’ul of disobeying Yahusha’s command and Yahuah’s revealed Will and thought Sha’ul was literally expanding the definition of Remnant Israel to include truly pagan Gentiles outside of the chosen bloodline.

You see, the Jews deny there is any such thing as “Lost Tribes” among the Gentile nations. This is true even today of Judaism. Remember, they went to war with the House of Israel and remain, even today, in rebellion against them. This is just one of many reasons the Jews will not accept Yahusha as the Messiah. He simply hasn’t come for the House of Judah (Jews) yet. To accept Yahusha as the Messiah would force the Jews to admit that most (10 out of 12 Tribes of Israel) are currently lost and considered “Gentiles” in need of a Shepherd to lead them home.

Yahuah made it clear that the House of Israel would be lost and without their identity among the Gentile nations.

Hosea 1

6 Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And Yahuah said to him, “Name her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer have compassion on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7 But I will have compassion on the house of Judah and deliver them by Yahuah their Elohim, and will not deliver them by bow, sword, battle, horses or horsemen.”

 

Hosea 9

17 My Elohim will reject them (speaking of the House of Israel) because they have not obeyed him (broke His Laws); they will be wanderers among the (pagan) nations (Gentiles).

Below, Yahuah speaks through the prophet Isaiah of how His Plan was to re-marry the House of Israel and bring His estranged wife back and restore her completely. Yahuah talks about how He literally “hid His face” from the House of Israel:

Isaiah 54

5 For your Maker is your husband— Yahuah Almighty is His Name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the Elohim of all the earth. 6 Yahuah will call you (the House of Israel) back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit— a wife who married young, only to be rejected,” says your Elohim. 7 For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back. 8 In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says Yahuah your Redeemer.

Yahusha knew this was his first mission as Messiah and so did the Apostle Sha’ul. Those lost sheep of the House of Israel would consider themselves pagan “Gentiles” and would not even know their own identity. So Sha’ul had to speak to them on terms they would and could accept. Sha’ul admitted as much that he would have to become all things to all men just to win a few.

Sha’ul is speaking of how he would have to meet both houses where they were to reach them individually.

1 Corinthians 9:19-23

19 Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. 20 To the Jews (House of Judah) I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. … To those not having the law (the House of Israel) I became like one not having the law though I am not free from the Law of Yahuah but am under the Yahushaic Covenant; so as to win those (the House of Israel) not having the law (being lost among the Gentiles).

But Sha’ul always made it clear that Yahuah’s choice of both houses of Israel stood and the Messiah was given to help the descendants of Abraham. So while Sha’ul “became all things to all men to win a few” we have to try and keep up with him and always keep in mind Yahuah’s will and keep everything in context of His Prophets… especially where Sha’ul’s writings are concerned.

 


 

How Did Sha’ul Know the House of Israel?

 

We know Sha’ul called the House of Israel “Gentiles” and rightfully so, by definition, they were not Jews and had lost all knowledge of their identity. But how did he know which pagans were lost sheep of the House of Israel?

The Christian Church is critically injured in their understanding of spiritual things and the meaning of the New Testament, because they have erred… and abolished the Torah and Prophets.

 

He had to “become like them”, as they would never have believed they were descendants of Jacob. We know Yahuah had totally divorced them and hid His Face from them. So how did the Apostle Sha’ul take the Gospel to the Gentiles in order to reclaim only the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel among them? Sha’ul knew the Torah and Prophets that Yahuah had forbid following “the pagan way of the Gentile nations”:

Deuteronomy 18:9

“When you come into the land that Yahuah your Elohim is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices (the way) of those nations.

Sha’ul immediately recognized Yahusha’s Great Commission and knew Yahusha was again following Yahuah’s command not to go to those who display the way of the pagan Gentiles. Sha’ul also knew that Yahuah would guide the effort in reclaiming that which was lost in those Gentile nations. Yahuah made Sha’ul a promise to do just that. Sha’ul, being an expert in the Prophets, knew Yahuah prophesied that He would reclaim the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel and literally move on His remnant and “cause them” to remember His Name and keep His Law by writing it in their hearts.

Jeremiah 16:21

And, behold, I will make them know; this time I will cause them to know My hand and My might; and they shall know that My name is Yahuah.

Sha’ul knew that in order to respond to the Gospel, they must be chosen, and must be of the bloodline of Jacob! Speaking of the time Sha’ul was being sent in obedience to Yahusha’s command to go to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel, Yahuah had made it clear how to identify them:

Jeremiah 31:33

"But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days," declares Yahuah, "I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.

Below, Sha’ul is speaking of how he would recognize true Israelites lost among the gentile nations. Sha’ul makes it clear; he simply followed Yahuah’s instructions in how to identify them:

Romans 2

12 For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law (not in covenant with Yahusha to cover that sin) will be judged by (the decrees in) the Law; 13 for it is not the hearers of the Law who are just before Yahuah, but the doers of the Law will be justified. (so Sha’ul was looking for LAW keepers or those who displayed “the Way of Yahuah” among the Gentiles14 For when (those lost sheep among the) Gentiles who do not have the Law (being divorced by Yahuah and scattered among the Gentile nations) do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law (because Yahuah hid it from them), are a law to themselves, 15 in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience (the Spirit of Yahuah) bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, 16 on the day when, according to my gospel, Yahuah will judge the secrets of men through Yahusha the Messiah. (Sha’ul knew the chosen would respond to him and by that they would identify themselves as Lost Sheep of the House of Israel among the Gentiles by outwardly displaying works of the Law)

The Apostle Sha’ul was a genius! He had to become all things to all men to accomplish the Great Commission. He didn’t go to Gentiles who displayed pagan “ways” as Yahusha forbid; he went to those who displayed works of the Law living among the Gentiles. Sha’ul knew there were descendants of Jacob living among the Gentiles who were SEEDS! They simply needed some Living Water (the Gospel) showered over them and they would spring up or rather stand up and be counted as sons of Yahuah. So Sha’ul set out to seek out those whom Yahuah had, as promised, “written His Law on their hearts” and he knew them because “they SHOW it by outwardly keeping the Law” verse 15 above.

Sha’ul spread the gospel as a wide net, and as a fisher of men he sat back and let Yahuah bring to him those of the bloodline of Jacob whom were lost among the Gentiles. The true bloodline from the House of Israel who had been lost would literally respond and come to him and demonstrate they were truly Israelites by keeping the Law and responding to the Gospel message.

 

Remnant Israel a subset of Israel

Unfortunately, we have to overcome 2000 years of false teachers who have taught Sha’ul’s writing under the Spirit of Error. Unfortunately, we all approach Sha’ul’s writing from the standpoint of our “teaching” in the Christian Church. I am going to go through and demonstrate that the Christian Church’s doctrines attributed to the Apostle Sha’ul are in fact in grave error. Let’s look at the letter Sha’ul wrote to the assembly in Rome.

In Romans 9 we are taught by false teachers (Christianity) that Sha’ul teaches (in total opposition to Yahuah and Yahusha) that you don’t have to be a descendant of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob to be a son of Yahuah. We are taught that the old covenant has been abolished and replaced by the New Covenant and the pagan Greeks (Christian Church) replaced Israel. We are taught in error that it isn’t blood descendants any longer but a “promise” which can be outside of that bloodline.

Romans 9 below is the justification for that false doctrine:

Romans 9

6 But it is not as though the word of Yahuah has failed. For they are not all Israel who are descended from Israel; 7 nor are they all children because they are Abraham’s descendants, but: “through Isaac your descendants will be named.” 8 That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of Yahuah, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants. 9 For this is the word of promise: “At this time I will come, and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 And not only this, but there was Rebekah also, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac; 11 for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that Yahuah’s purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls, 12 it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger.” 13 Just as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

Above, Sha’ul is saying very clearly that:

  • The Word of Yahuah to Abraham that it would be through his descendants that the sons of Yahuah would be chosen “has not failed”. So Sha’ul begins proclaiming Yahuah’s Plan has not failed and is still true.
  • Sha’ul then states another truth proclaimed by Yahuah that not all of the descendants of Israel will be chosen but only a REMNANT will be saved among them. So not “all Israel who descended from Israel” will be chosen as sons.
  • Then Sha’ul clarifies that only the descendants through Isaac not Ishmael will be the chosen bloodline as Isaac was the promised one.
  • Then Sha’ul goes on to confirm the Torah that only those who descend from Abraham thru Isaac thru JACOB will be chosen.

Sha’ul is building up to defining Remnant Israel as we will see as coming exclusively through the promised seed of Jacob. Sha’ul is saying the exact opposite of what the Christian Church teaches. Sha’ul is actually saying that ONLY those who descend from Abraham through Isaac then Jacob are considered Israel. Then among those only a small remnant of that bloodline will be saved and THAT Sha’ul calls Remnant Israel.

The “sovereign choice” is clearly defined within the strict bloodline of Abraham/Isaac/Jacob not through Ishmael and not through Esau.

 

Let me put Sha’ul’s writing in context. What Sha’ul is saying, in context with all his writings, the Torah, and Prophets, is clear. ONLY a small remnant that descended from Jacob will be saved. Abraham had other sons and so did Isaac but even though they were Abraham’s descendants too, they are not from the promised bloodline. Sha’ul is saying Remnant Israel does not extend to those seeds of Abraham but ONLY Jacobs and only a remnant from that line are chosen sons of Yahuah. The first thing Sha’ul makes clear is that Yahuah’s Word to Abraham has not failed. Below is Romans 9 with my clarification IN CONTEXT:

Romans 9 - Yahuah’s Sovereign Choice

6 It is not as though Yahuah’s word had failed. For not all who are descended from (physical) Israel are (Remnant) Israel (only a remnant from that bloodline). 7 Nor (just) because they are his descendants (speaking of Ishmael and Esau) are they all Abraham’s children (to whom the promises belong. It is only the bloodline from Abraham that descends from Isaac through Jacob). On the contrary, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” 8 In other words (Sha’ul now makes it clear it is not all the bloodline but a chosen subset), it is not the children by physical descent who are Yahuah’s children (speaking of Ishmael and Esau), but it is the children of the promise (through Isaac/Jacob) who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring (in context of Yahuah’s promises to Abraham. Sha’ul is simply stating that not all of the descendants of Abraham are Yahuah’s Children but only the descendants of promise that went through Isaac/Jacob). 9 For this was how the promise was stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”

Sha’ul was simply developing the proven fact spoken of by Isaiah:

Romans 9

27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel:  "Though the number of the Israelites be like the sand by the sea, only the remnant will be saved."

Sha’ul was the one chosen to understand the meaning of the two comings and the true meaning of "Israel" being a Remnant from AMONG the Jews (House of Judah) and from AMONG the gentiles (where the House of Israel had been scattered). So the fact is that Yahuah's sons are scattered among ALL nations on Earth and have no idea they are of the bloodline of Jacob. The Elect will be called out of all nations and will be known by the fact they have a “heart for the Law” and “know Yahuah’s Name”. They will literally be physical descendants of Israel, but THEY WILL HAVE LOST THEIR IDENTITY (and not know they are of the bloodline of Jacob). It was prophesied by Ezekiel, Hosea, Isaiah, and Yahusha then confirmed by Sha’ul that ONLY a remnant from the bloodline of Israel would be saved, and only that remnant from the bloodline of Israel.

 

The Gifts of Yahuah to Remnant Israel

Sha’ul goes on to clearly teach that to this Remnant of Israel or Spiritual Israel by choice IN ADDITION to bloodline belong the Gifts of Yahuah. He lists these gifts to us (the Remnant sons) as belonging to the “Israelites” only not to pagan Gentiles:

Romans 9:4-5

To the "Israelites" (no one else) belong 7 things granted to them as gifts from Yahuah:

1.) Adoption as sons of Yahuah

2.) To be the Glory of Yahuah

3.) The "Law" which is the Torah

4.) The Temple of Yahuah and the Altar within

5.) The Promises of Yahuah (forgiveness, resurrection, eternal life, dominion, inheritance)

6.) The "fathers" - they are of the bloodline descending from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

7.) And the Messiah (to be partakers in the Yahushaic Covenant)

NOT to the pagan Gentiles (known today as the Christian Church)! Christianity is the modern version of the Babylonian religion of sun worship. These blessings of Yahuah belong to Remnant Israel alone!

 

Sha’ul goes on in Romans to explain that Remnant Israel is a chosen few from among both Houses.

Let’s continue with Romans. Sha’ul defines and clarifies that it is REMNANT ISRAEL that are the true sons of Yahuah to whom these 7 things belong to. Romans 9 Verse 6 - Sha’ul declares the WORD OF YAHUAH HAS NOT FAILED. His people are still Israel that descends through Abraham/Isaac/Jacob! BUT, Sha’ul confirms the prophets that not EVERYONE born in that bloodline is a son of Yahuah. "For they are not all Israel (not everyone who descended from Jacob is part of that remnant) who are descended from Israel", but only a Chosen Remnant will be saved.

Sha’ul goes into a long explanation of how the sons of Yahuah are predestined and not determined simply based on the bloodline alone. In other words, they are from the bloodline but they are a small SUBSET of that bloodline and chosen by Yahuah. Sha’ul demonstrates that Yahuah has CHOSEN ONLY A REMNANT from the bloodline of Israel who is scattered across the globe, who have lost their identity completely, but they are still chosen. They just have to be reclaimed back to Yahuah.

In verse 24 below, Sha’ul then declares that REMNANT ISRAEL is called from "AMONG" Jews (House of Judah), and also from "AMONG" the Gentiles (House of Israel, the lost sheep had been scattered AMONG the Gentile nations).  Sha’ul understood the Messiah HAD to come twice. The first time to restore the lost sheep and call out the Chosen lost among the Gentile nations by blinding the eyes of the Jews. Sha’ul would know these lost descendants of Abraham by their instinctive keeping of the Law and their acceptance of the name Yahuah and Yahusha!

The second time, Yahusha would come to restore and save the House of David and call out the chosen from among the House of Judah. Together, those chosen from both houses are Remnant Israel.

Romans 9:24

24 even us (Remnant Israel in context), whom he also called, not only from among the Jews (the House of Judah) but also from among the Gentiles (where the House of Israel is scattered)?

Then in verse 25, Sha’ul quotes from Hosea, the first Prophet to the House of Israel as justification for everything he was teaching concerning the House of Israel and the House of Judah. Sha’ul had a deep understanding of the Torah and Prophets; he was a Pharisee and teacher of the Law.

This is how we know everything Sha’ul was discussing in Romans 9 was in context of the House of Israel and the House of Judah and the re-unification of the Nation back together again. We know this because Sha’ul backed up everything he said with quotes from Hosea, Isaiah, and the prophets where Yahuah’s Plan to choose a small remnant from among both Houses is revealed.

Sha’ul quotes from Hosea Chapter 1. So it is within this context Romans 9 is understood. In Hosea, Yahuah is discussing this very concept that he scattered and divorced the House of Israel, yet He had compassion on the House of Judah:

Hosea 1

6 Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And Yahuah said to him, “Name her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer have compassion on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7 But I will have compassion on the house of Judah and deliver them by Yahuah their Elohim, and will not deliver them by bow, sword, battle, horses or horsemen.”

Yahuah goes on then to speak through Hosea that He would, at a later date, re-unite both houses back into one as Remnant Israel:

10 Yet the number of the sons of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured or numbered; And in the place (pagan Gentile lands) where it is said to them (not that it is true it is only said of them), “You are not My people,” It will be said to them (after I reclaim them to their rightful inheritance), “You are the sons of the living Elohim.” 11 And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be gathered together,

Now that is the context of Romans 9! Sha’ul is speaking of Remnant Israel and he knew they would come exclusively from the bloodline of Jacob but not all of that bloodline would be called Remnant Israel.

We see Sha’ul justify everything he was talking about concerning “Gentiles” etc. by quoting from Hosea:

Romans 9:25

"I will call those who were not My People (the House of Israel whom Yahuah had divorced) ´My People´ and who were not beloved, ´Beloved´ (the promise Yahuah made to restore the House of Israel through the prophet Hosea)... “ "And it shall be in the place (Gentile nations where they were scattered) where it is said to them (House of Israel) ´you are not My People´ (because Yahuah divorced them and their remembrance as descendants of Jacob had ceased), there (in those foreign countries Yahuah will call back a remnant of the House of Israel) they (remnant of the House of Israel) shall be called sons of the Living Elohim (the restoration of the House of Israel back to Yahuah)."

This was Sha’ul's commission - to follow through with what Yahusha had come to do which was to reclaim the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel and save a remnant from among them. And then in the next verse Sha’ul again quotes from the prophet Isaiah who also (along with every other prophet) prophesied the re-unification of the Remnant of Israel (both Houses) back to Yahuah...

Romans 9:27

And Isaiah cries out concerning (Remnant Israel to whom the 7 promises belong) "Though the number of the sons of Israel (both Houses scattered among all the nations) be as the sand of the sea (fulfilling the blessing to Abraham) ... IT IS THE REMNANT (of both houses) THAT SHALL BE SAVED"

Sha’ul was given UNIQUE revelation that Yahuah's word and promises to all Israel did not fail. Yahuah will send the Messiah TWICE, first to reclaim the lost sheep of the House of Israel, and then Yahusha comes again to re-unify the two houses and call out a remnant from among the Jews or the House of Judah. That remnant from both houses is… Remnant Israel. It is only to Remnant Israel or the Chosen, Elect, sons of Yahuah that belong the following Gifts of Yahuah:

Romans 9:4-5

1.) Adoption as sons of Yahuah

2.) To be the Glory of Yahuah

3.) The "Law" which is the Torah

4.) The Temple of Yahuah and the Altar within

5.) The Promises of Yahuah (forgiveness, resurrection, eternal life, dominion, inheritance)

6.) The "fathers" (they are of the bloodline descending from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob)

7.) And the Messiah

As I have just demonstrated, Sha’ul knew it was a Remnant of Israel that would be saved from both Houses. Some from among the House of Judah (Jews) and some from the House of Israel from among the Gentile nations where they had been scattered in fulfillment of the Prophets. That is what Sha’ul was clearly saying in Romans. Sha’ul was clearly teaching the Torah, Feasts, Sabbath, Covenants, Temple, Promises, Bloodline, and Messiah... belong to the sons of Yahuah... Remnant Israel and no one else.



 

Sha’ul’s letter to the Ephesians

Sha’ul again addressed the re-unification of the House of Israel back to Yahuah below:

Ephesians 2

11 Wherefore remember, that you being in time past (called) Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands (the Jews called the House of Israel “Gentiles”); 12 That at that time ye were without the Messiah (lost in exile among the Gentile nations), being aliens (in strange pagan lands) from the commonwealth of Israel (descendants of Jacob to which you truly belong), and strangers from the covenants of promise (Yahuah made to His people through the bloodline of Jacob), having no hope, and without Yahuah in the world (as a result of being divorced by Yahuah, separated and dispersed for rebellion): 13 But now in Messiah Yahusha ye (House of Israel, the lost sheep) who sometimes were far off (scattered among the pagan gentiles nations) are made nigh (restored again to your inheritance, the commonwealth of Israel) by the blood of the Messiah.
14 For (Yahusha) is our (Israel’s) peace, who hath made both (houses, Israel and Judah) one (again, coming as Messiah ben Joseph to reclaim the lost sheep of the House of Israel), and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us (the breach or enmity between the two Houses); 15 Having abolished (death) in his flesh the enmity (hatred toward or rebellion against), even the law of commandments contained in ordinances (of Yahuah that we must keep through Love, having found Grace for our transgressions); for to make in Himself of two (Houses: House of Israel and House of Judah) one new man (Remnant Israel), so making peace (between the sons of Yahuah); 16 And that he (Yahusha) might reconcile both (houses) unto Yahuah in one body (fulfilling prophecy of the Messiah to reunite Israel) by the stake (through covenant), having slain the enmity (between the two Houses) thereby: 17 And (Yahusha) came and preached peace to you (House of Israel) which were afar off (scattered among the gentile nations), and to them (House of Judah) that were near (in the land of Israel and not lost).
18 For through him (Yahusha the High Priest) we both (House of Israel and House of Judah) have access by one Spirit (of reconciliation) unto the Father. 19 Now therefore ye (the House of Israel) are no more strangers (to the commonwealth of Israel you once belonged) and foreigners (in pagan lands as lost sheep), but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of Yahuah (grafted back into the tree you belong called Remnant Israel);

That… is what the Apostle Sha’ul actually said.


 

Conclusion

The sons of Yahuah are (and have always been) primarily from the bloodline of Jacob. They are a small remnant taken from among the House of Israel and from among the House of Judah and reunited into one nation again called Remnant Israel. They are those chosen sons, in covenant with Yahusha, who keep His Sabbaths, who have had their minds sealed by Yahuah, who have a heart for His Law, and who will be transposed (resurrected) into an eternal life in the Kingdom of Yahuah.
