According to the Bible... as hiddenly recorded in the Books of Revelation...
There are three nations of God - which are considered His chosen people.
The first nation was the Israel... but did they remain loyal to God's commandments? The Bible has plainly recorded that in the Old Testament. That's why God sent His prophets to reform His nation which was in rebellion status.
400 years later... God sent His Son to recover His lost nation. Jesus built the Church in accrodance to God's will. But did it remain loyal to God and Christ? As prophesied they won't. History repeats itself. God once again sent His messengers to reform the Church which was turning from the truth and embraced paganism.
400 years later... the last nation of God was reestablished by virtue of the prophecies written in the Bible.
🙂 Now, who were the true chosen people of God?
The Israelites who died loyal to God's commandments.
The members of the early Church and loyal to Christ's admonition and remained faithful to the will of God.
The members of the reestablished Church by virtue of Biblical prophecies, followed the last messenger of God... and remained loyal to the words of God written in the Bible, the teachings of Christ and of the Apostles.
So there were three groups as declared by Christ Himself:
Those were the Jews, the children of the Jews, and those who are far off and yet to be called.

If this is just aboot the christian community I always thought that Chiristians belived that they were gods chosen peopl, if they thought the jews were they would surely be jewish wouldn't they?
Maybe they should be. Maybe Christianity swayed away from the truth.
Maybe it's being Jewish and believing in the Messiah 🙂
🤨
The Jewish People believe in completely different things than the "Christian Community", (except for the basic belief in God and most of what's in the Holy Bible version of the "Old Testament"😉.
Please, don't roll your eyes at me - you look like a real jack@$$ when you do. 😉
Oh, and please, kids visit this forum: It's "Community", not "CUMmunity" - j/k, I know that was an honest mistake....or was it? 😖hifty:
Jews, Christians and Muslims, along with Sikhs and Zoroastrians are Peoples of the Book.... in other words, they have one God and have a written scripture which does not contradict the Quran.... as a Muslim once put it... "Jews are old fashioned Muslims, Christians are mistaken Muslims, Sikhs are hybrid Muslims, and Parsees are misguided Muslims...."
But how can the Muslims be apart of a "Christian community?" They're Muslims, not Christiansjews are jews and not christians
Therefore, if there is a god, he/she/it's not camping in either the Jewish woods or the Xian valleys. Both sets of nutters are talking to themselvesyou can throw in most religious groups into that definition

Thats what I meant, neither Muslkims nor Jews are part of the Christian Cummunity, I was just responding to debbiejo who said Jews were which they are not but then she said muslims aren't thats why I said, Either you accept both Jews and Muslims as Christians (which of course is ridicolous) or none.
