The only route that leads Gentiles to Jesus is through the nation that the Lord set apart for Himself with a perpetual covenant, sealed by the sign of circumcision: Israel. The Lord is an organized God, who faithfully fulfills everything He declares. He is the God of Israel and no other nation, past or present. In none of the Gospels did Jesus imply that He would be creating a new religion for Gentiles, nor did He designate any man, whether inside or outside the Bible, for this mission. Any Gentile can join Israel and be blessed by God, as long as they follow the same laws that the Lord gave to Israel. The Father sees the faith and courage of this Gentile, despite the difficulties. He pours out His love on them, unites them with Israel, and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. | The Gentile who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, being thus His servant… and who holds fast to My covenant, I will also bring to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
Only God, the Author of the holy and eternal Law, can make any changes to it. Even Jesus, being one with the Father, affirmed that He only spoke and did what the Father commanded Him. The Gentile who refuses to obey the laws that God gave to His people in the Old Testament, based on interpretations of what someone, inside or outside the Bible, wrote, will face a bitter surprise at the final judgment. There are no prophecies, neither in the Old Testament nor in the words of Jesus, that warn that God would give a man, after Jesus, the power to alter His laws. This is not written. Salvation is individual. No Gentile will ascend without seeking to follow the same laws given to Israel, laws that Jesus and His apostles themselves followed. Do not follow the majority just because they are many. | “Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.” Deuteronomy 4:2
During His days on earth, Jesus was impressed by the faith of some Gentiles, but even so, He never called them to follow Him. He made it clear that He did not come into the world to lead the Gentiles, but to be the perfect and eternal sacrifice for the sins of His people, Israel. This does not mean that God does not save Gentiles, but rather that the salvation of all souls stems from the covenant of faithfulness He made with Abraham. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Christ needs to follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father observes their faith and courage, despite the challenges, pours out His love on them, unites them with Israel, and leads them to Jesus. This is the plan of salvation that makes sense because it is true. | “Jesus sent out the twelve with the following instructions: Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans; but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Matthew 10:5-6
God has always expected His people to obey His laws with all their effort, but this has never meant a requirement of absolute perfection, with no room for mistakes. Proof of this is that it was God Himself who instituted the sacrificial system and, in due time, sent His Son as the Lamb of God. The doctrine that the Law was canceled because no one can obey it perfectly finds no support in the prophets or the words of Jesus. Christ died as a substitute for those who love God and prove this love by striving to follow His laws. Do not follow the majority just because they are many. Obey while you are alive. | “You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently.” Psalm 119:4
The Gentile who truly believes in Jesus must be willing to live exactly as He and His apostles lived, so that their faith results in blessings and salvation. Jesus taught, both by words and example, that claiming to love God without faithfully obeying all His commandments is futile. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Christ must follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father sees the faith and courage of this Gentile, despite the difficulties. He pours out His love on them, unites them with Israel, and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. This is the plan of salvation that makes sense because it is true. Do not be swayed by the majority just because they are many. We have reached the end. | “Here is the perseverance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” Revelation 14:12
The church completely ignores Jesus’ warning that few even find the door to salvation. People prefer to cover their ears and pretend everything is fine between them and God. But it’s not! God has made it clear numerous times that there would be blessings and salvation for those who obeyed His laws, but curses and suffering for those who despised them. Almost no one diligently seeks to follow the laws the Lord gave to the prophets in the Old Testament, and the consequences, both current and eternal, are already visible. Do not follow the majority just because they are many. Obey while you are alive. | “Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter through it.” Matthew 7:13
Since Cain and Abel, it has been evident that God blesses the obedient and curses the rebellious. This divine principle of reward and punishment has remained throughout the entire history of God’s people. By giving us His laws, God was clear: blessings for those who obey, curses for those who ignore them. The choice is in our hands. The idea that Jesus nullified this principle of His Father is an illusion without any support in the four Gospels. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Christ must follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father sees the faith and courage of this Gentile and pours out His love on them. The Father unites them with Israel and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. | Today I am setting before you blessing and curse. You will have blessing if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God, which I am giving you today. Deuteronomy 11:26-27
According to the prophets of the Lord and the words of Jesus in the Gospels, there is only one people set apart and blessed with an eternal covenant, sealed with the sign of circumcision. These are the natural descendants of Abraham and the Gentiles who have joined them through obedience to God’s laws. The Scriptures do not mention any covenant between God and Gentiles who are separate from Israel. The Gentile who wishes to be blessed and saved by Christ must follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father observes the faith and courage of this Gentile, despite the difficulties. He pours out His love on them, unites them with Israel, and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. This plan of salvation makes sense because it is true. | There shall be one law for the native-born and for the stranger who dwells among you. (Exodus 12:49)
Jesus is the promised Messiah for the forgiveness of sins, but exclusively for the Israel of God. The Israel of God consists of Jews and Gentiles who are faithful to the eternal covenant of circumcision made with Abraham and to the laws given to the chosen people. The idea that a Gentile can reach Jesus outside of Israel is a human invention, with no basis in the Old Testament or the words of Jesus. The Gentile who wishes to be saved by Christ must follow the same laws that the Father gave to the chosen nation for His honor and glory. The Father sees their faith and courage, despite the difficulties. He pours out His love on them, unites them with Israel, and leads them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. This is the plan of salvation that makes sense because it is true. | The Gentile who joins himself to the Lord, to serve Him, being thus His servant… and who holds fast to My covenant, I will also bring to My holy mountain. (Isaiah 56:6-7)
In many churches, leaders claim to preach a message of peace, but they never teach that obedience to God’s holy and eternal laws is necessary for the soul to have peace with Him and achieve salvation in Christ. The peace these churches offer is deceptive, as it is based neither on what God revealed through the prophets nor on the words of Jesus. As long as an individual refuses to obey God’s Law, they are in rebellion against the Creator, and the last thing they can expect is God’s peace. True peace is found only by those who follow the laws God gave to Israel in the Old Testament, the same laws that Jesus and the apostles followed. Only to these does the Father pour out His love and send them to the Son for forgiveness and salvation. | “Ah, my people! Those who guide you lead you astray and destroy the paths you walk.” Isaiah 3:12
