“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 util the FULLNESS OF THE GENTILES has come in.”- Rom 11:25

The FULLNESS OF THE GENTILES was when the Gentiles were accepted as being on equal footing with the Jews. This was when they were grafted into the “Olive Tree”, the New Covenant Chruch that was beginning during the transition period. the gospel of the kingdom went first to the Jews beginning with Christ’s public ministry between 26-30ad.

Christ came as Messiah to the Jews and the Jewish Remnant believed. These were the Jewish Apostles and Jewish disciples in the beginning of the transition period between Christ’s first and second coming in the first century AD. The gospel then went to the Samaritans (half breeds) and then finally to the Gentiles.

Because of the stubbornness of the unbelieving Jews, God’s New Covenant gospel reached out to the Gentiles. They mystery of this is that God used the failure of the Jews to provide riches for the Gentiles. The faith of the Gentiles was used to provoke the Jews to jealousy and some of them (the Remnant) were saved.

“For I (Paul) speak to the GENTILES; Inasmuch as I am an apostle to the GENTILES, I magnify my ministry, if by any means I may provoke to jealously those who are my flesh (physical Jews) and save some of them. For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, that will their acceptance be but life from the dead?” – Rom 11:3-15

During the transition period between Christ’s first and second comings in the first century, the believers were redeemed by Christ’s atonement, but their salvation was not yet fully consummated until His second coming Parousia in 66-70ad. They had to remain faithful even under persecutions to confirm that they were genuine believers and entitled to remain in the cultivated olive tree.

“Therefore, consider the goodness and severity of God” on those (unbelieving Jews) who fell, severity; but toward you (believing Gentiles), goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise, you also (Gentiles) will be cut off. And they also, if they (unbelieving Jews) do NOT continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. For if you (Gentiles) were cut out of the olive tree which is WILD by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a CULTIVATED OLIVE TREE, how much more will these (Jewish Remnant), who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? -Rom 11:22-24

So God brought the believing Gentiles into His Kingdom. But He also brought His elect Jewish Remnant into His Kingdom, even though they were cut off originally due to unbelief but then repented and became believers in Christ. This all occurred only to the first century Jews and Gentiles while His church in the New Covenant gospel kingdom was being built.

Only believers were grafted into the rich Olive Tree to inherit the promises to Israel and receive covenant blessings of the kingdom. God opened the covenant to all, believing Jews and believing Gentiles. The FULLNESS OF THE GENTILES had been accepted in the first century. – Rom 11:25

The promise to Israel were kept by God, but only the “spiritual Israel”, the faithful remnant of believing Jews and also to the believing Gentiles. The New Covenant kingdom of Christ consisted of re-grafted believing Jews and in-grafted in Gentiles. These are all on in Christ, called, “christians” [aka: believers in Christ]. His New Covenant spiritual gospel kingdom was then fully established in 70ad and continues forward in human history.

“For there is NO DISTINCTION BETWEEN JEW AND GREEK, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For ‘whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” -Rom 10:12-13

*My thoughts: Jesus gives this offer to ALL WHO WILL COME TO HIM AND BELIEVE ON HIM AND TRUST HIM AND ONLY HIM! I added [aka: believers in Christ] because I do not give precedence to the term ‘Christian’ for I see too many deceived and hateful Christians still debating that God has ‘chosen people’ and ‘chosen land’ in the New Covenant. They truly missed the WHOLE PURPOSE OF CHRIST PERIOD. It seriously baffles me, and it is a crucially dangerous theology leading to a legalist system again which will make Christ to no avail! Please wake up and stop entertaining this mere manmade agenda. We can put an end to all these false man-made, counterfeit prophecies in a heartbeat. Simply just stop entertaining it! Stop giving it energy! It isn’t biblical prophecy period; it is just mystical nonsense created by the Kabbalistic and Islamic faiths that believe NOT on our JESUS CHRIST! They believe in another Jesus and another Gospel! Christ came so that no man shall perish, so it is our only commission to preach the pure unadulterated Gospel & I don’t see hardly any ‘Christians’ stepping up to this true task. They preach doctrines, theologies and end of the world eschatology’s, but I don’t see the pure truth of the gospel being preached!

However, isn’t great to serve such an awesome Messiah that is OUR ONLY Lord and Savior, JESUS CHRIST!? Of the three main religions, Judaism, Islamic, and Christianity, only one believes that Jesus IS THE ALREADY COME MESSIAH AND ALSO, WE SEE HIM AS OUR LORD AN SAVIOR. Remember that Judaism & Islamic faith only see their future Messiah as a warlike militant that will destroy all that isn’t of their specific faith and the world is to be blown to smitherings. (Not scriptural by the way) … They don’t see Him as Savior, but just destroyer. Sadly, the Christian faith has adopted this ‘end of the world’ diabolical doctrine. They are obviously not dividing the world of truth and improperly handling it.

Study and do your best to present yourself to God approved, a workman [tested by trial] who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth. -2 Tim 2:15

A huge important key to unlocking the scriptures is to understand that they had their time in HISTORY and if we don’t keep it in context and recognize the actual audience they are speaking of and pertaining to, we will ALWAYS have a zillion made up doctrines to contend with. And let me tell you any doctrine that comes to kill, steal and destroy are NOT the plan of JESUS! The adversary comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].”- John 10:10

See Jesus didn’t come to perfect the world, He came to perfect our FAITH! May we quit allowing what we see in the world distract us and may we keep our focus on Christ the author and finisher of our faith. I pray we please stop attempting to create a utopia that consist of NO free will. Without free will to serve our Messiah we are yet still slaves to the beast system. May we please, please, please MATURE in our Faith IN HIM & All HE HAS ACCOMPLISED AT THE CROSS! There is NO GOAL left incomplete! HE FINISHED IT!!

[looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity], who for the joy [of accomplishing the goal] set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God [revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work].” – Heb 12:2

If one is still relying on and believing in an ‘end of the world’ blasphemous anti-christ, red heifer, return of the law, animal sacrifice- all which is nothing but Kabbalah worship and Jewish mysticism to keep Gods people slaves and quite frankly unsaved because we cannot live in two covenants as that is spiritual adultery. We are either fully consummated or we ARE STILL NOT SAVED AND WE ARE RELIANT ON A FALSE CONTERFIET PROPHECHY THAT THE UNBELIEVING JEWS AND (NOT TO MENTION THE OTHER FOLD, (THE ISLAMIC FAITH) HAVE MADE UP TO KEEP EVIL, RELIGIOUS WARS GOING! THIS IS THEIR RELIGIOUS WAR, NOT OURS!

Any ‘Christian’ still subscribing to any false prophecy is either way to deeply indoctrinated in such an adding too, taking away and twisting of scriptures, or they are ignorant of the simplicity of the scriptures weather that be willfully or unwilfully it doesn’t matter because ALL people are responsible for their own understanding of scriptures! We are NOT to simply allow mere man to teach us, but we are to STUDY OURSELVES APPROVED! -2 Tim 2:15

So I simply pray for ALL to come into the fold free-willingly and continue to preach the pure, unadulterated gospel and that is CHRIST SAVES!

*Note the CHRIST THAT SAVES, died on the cross, rose again and ascended to heaven fulfilling all the types and shadows of the Old Testament! Most awesome part of the atonement is that He truly shed the pure blood of Abba Father to pay all penalties to the slave system that WE THAT BELIEVE ARE NO LONGER under! WE ARE SAVED by the BLOOD OF CHRIST, not some Red Heifer! Seriously folks let go of the mysticism and move onto pure TRUTH!!

The born-again will NEVER see the wrath of God period! We are saved by our FAITH IN HIS GRACE, not by our eschatology’s. LET THEM GO and be FREE to preach for ABBA! ❤

Therefore, since we have now been justified [declared free of the guilt of sin] by His blood, [how much more certain is it that] we will be saved from the wrath of God through Him. – Rom 5:9

All my, SAVED BY HIS GRACE! ❤ Diana xo 🙂
