AMPLIFIED 2015 | Galatians 3:28 There is [now no distinction in regard to salvation] neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you [who believe] are all one in Christ Jesus [no one can claim a spiritual superiority]. [Rom 3:22; 1 Cor 12:13] |
Subject: spirtual seed? |
Bible Note: Jeff, You’re right about the thread going off-subject as my original post was in regard to unity within the Body. But isn’t that par for the course? Seriously though, even being that it went off course, I thought there were some interesting points and responses to follow with and follow up. So I followed along and interjected where I thought I could help. Just so you know where I stand, I agree with your comment: “There is no other salvation; there is also no teaching in scripture that indicates that any individual will be saved as a result of his or her race, ethnicity, tribe, or nationality.” I believe the Word is clear that the veil will be lifted and Israel, or the remnant that is God’s, will awake from their slumber and recognize Christ, when God determines. That remnant however is of Israel. Again, I think the Word is clear on that. So no, salvation has nothing to do with race, ethnicity, tribe, or nationality and rests solely with the grace of God through faith. I just see a specific race, ethnicity, tribe, or nationality, or rather the remnant of a specific one, being called when God determines, to faith in Christ, which is the assurance of their salvation.
