Gentiles in prophecy
"For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery--so that you will not be wise in your own estimation--that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in" Rom. 11:26.
Who are the gentiles
O dear people, this is an awesome part of prophecy. I can hardly wait to get into it. The Gentiles include everyone, all nations, except the Jews. You and I are in that group if your are not a completed Jew, who has found Your messiah. I tingle just thinking about all of this.
What Jews think
Sadly, many if not most Jews, think that all Gentiles, except Muslims, are Christians. The anti-Semitism of the non-Christian world, of course, really gives Christians a black eye.
Be blessed or cursed
God said to Abraham, "And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed" WOW, this is a great prophecy. Don't miss it, Gen. 12:2, 3. There is no doubt that America has been blessed because Israel has been welcomed and blessed by America over the years. God help us if we ever turn our backs on Israel.
What about the Arabs
I love them and pray for them. It has been my privilege to be in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, and Egypt. You can't help but love them if you get to know them. The tragedy is the radical Muslims who have taught, through their religion, to hate us, call us infidels and taught to kill us. Remember 9/11? All Middle Easterners who do not believe this would be wise to say it out loud, verbally and vocally, that they do not want to kill all non Muslims. I have some very dear friends who are from the middle east and Muslims who denounce this belief.
There is much in prophecy about the nations, the gentiles, the "heathen" who have not heard about Jesus nor the gospel. Don't miss this.
Prayer: Father, may we get the gospel to the Gentiles all around us and all around the world like you told us to do. In Jesus name. all because of Calvary, sumner
"For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised." Hebrews 10:36
