God sent the prophets but the keepers of the Law and the Temple stoned them all, each one of them. Then He sent His Son and they brutalized Him and killed Him. Therefore God gave the Church to the gentiles. (or at least to those who were not teachers of the Law and pharisees) Jesus became the Capstone, or Cornerstone of the Church. |

where did you get that information from? All of God's prophets were not stoned. The Church is a called out body of believers both jew and gentile. Paul was sent by God to minister to the gentiles. the church is not just for the gentiles. The church is whoever believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and is saved. It has nothing to do with race, creed, color or national origin. it has nothing to do with gender. It is for whosoever will let him come. Because Jesus was sent to Israel first and they rejected him as Messiah he is called the stone which the builders rejected. read these scriptures Matt 21:42 and Luke 20:17. please read the entire chapters to get the full understanding. | ||||||

Where'd I get that information from? The Bible. Figuratively stoned. Or are you harping on a single word, "all", taking me more literally than you do the Bible? Luke 13:34 "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing!" The keepers of the Law are the keepers of the field. They were entrusted with the Father's property. When He sent the messengers (prophets) they killed them. (Don't get all semantical about the use of the word stoned or all - just because I didn't write a thousand words to explain it.) So the Father sent the Son. They were more brutal with Him than with the messengers. They killed Him also. 9 "Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vinedressers, and give the vineyard to others. The Temple was destroyed, the Pharisees and teachers of the Law were utterly cast out, and the Kingdom given to others, mostly gentiles. In my post I said "Therefore God gave the Church to the gentiles. (or at least to those who were not teachers of the Law and Pharisees)" So I made exception for the Jewish believers. You seem to have a chip on your shoulder about ethnicity, race and color. No one ever mentioned those. What is in your heart that you would come from such a perspective? Why do you rage at me and say for the most part what I have already said? You said “It has nothing to do with race, creed, color or national origin” That you include "creed" in that list, is absolutely ridiculous! Creed is a belief. Then you rail on about those who believe are saved. This is true. So why do you say it has nothing to do with creed? Are you parroting some liberal, humanist line or do you not know what is the meaning of the word creed, or both? Main Entry: creed Pronunciation: 'krEd Function: noun Etymology: Middle English crede, from Old English crEda, from Latin credo (first word of the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds), from credere to believe, trust, entrust; akin to Old Irish cretid he believes, Sanskrit srad-dadhAti Date: before 12th century 1 : a brief authoritative formula of religious belief 2 : a set of fundamental beliefs; also : a guiding principle But the fact remains. Israel was blinded in part and the Church given to the gentiles. Read Rom 11. Their branch was taken out. We were grafted in. Don’t be proud of it, you may be taken out just as easily. This is the summary of Rom 11. See also Isa 52:15 Rom 11:7 What then? Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were blinded. Rom 11:25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. |
