Like I mentioned in my previous blog the misunderstanding of John 3:16 where many pastors and some others are connecting the verse with everyone while it was only referring to the children of Israel. If you would like you can refer to my blog about John 3:16 Misinterpretation Led By Christians so you can compare and contrast the verses to see a big difference. Acts 10 is the chapter that opens the door to all Gentiles. That's why it is important to read more than just one section of a verse to make your conclusion or should I say assumption. Like it says Isaiah 28:9-10 it is precept upon precept; line upon line and here a little and there a little. One question to ask is who are the Gentiles and who are the children of Israel? Anyone who is not the descendant of Jacob or the 12 tribes of Israel are considered to be Gentiles. If you didn't know, back in the time of YAHUSHA and even after his death it was unlawful for a Jew to mingle with other nation. Joshua 23:7 "That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them nor bow yourselves unto them." (Other references Exodus 23:32, Jeremiah 10:2). Matthew 10:5 "These twelve YAHUSHA sent out with the following instructions: Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans."
The disciples knew it well and wouldn't allow any gentiles to enter into the synagogue even after the death of YAHUSHA (Whom they call Christ). Why did YAHUAH (God) change his mind? Why did he open the door for everyone? One the children of Israel angered the highest and also due to their lack of faith in the Messiah. Deuteronomy 32:21"They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not EL (God); they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation." If you read during the time of YAHUSHA (whom they call Jesus), one of the events was the woman in Matthew 15:25-28 "But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said Truth, master: yet the dogs eat of the master's table. Then YAHUSHA answered and said unto her, O Woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour."
Another event was in Luke 7:1-10 but I want to focus on verse 9 "When YAHUSHA heard this these things, he marveled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel." To make it clear the centurion was a Gentile, and so was the woman in Matthew. Now, the children of Israel whom YAHUSHA come to save most didn't have such great faith in Him. YAHUSHA at a point was frustrated with the disciples because he has been with them all that time, and they couldn't heal one of the demon possessed child. He was like have you guys learned anything by now? All these miracles I've done, and you still don't believe? So, in Matthew 17:14-18 but verse 17 "Then YAHUSHA answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him hither to me." The reason I use these verses is to show you the pattern. Peter after spending all that time with YAHUSHA denied him three times but was redeemed. Also, the children of Israel are prone to go astray serving other gods. If you read at the time they were in the wilderness with Moses even with all the most high had done and they were still complaining and angered the most high. That was one of the reasons he said they would not enter into Canaan. Few Scripture references: 2 Chronicles 33:9, 2 Kings 21:9, Numbers 20:12, Matthew 22:29
.
Therefore after the death of our Messiah, some of the Gentiles believe on him, and one who got YAHUAH's attention was Cornelius you must read the whole chapter. Acts 10: 1-48 but I want to focus on verse 4 "And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, ADONAI? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before YAHUAH (God)." The most high was pleased with Cornelius for being a devout man, and one that feared Yah (God) with all his house. A few hours later YAHUAH gave Peter the vision to minister to Cornelius so that he would be saved because remember the Gentiles weren't included until that very moment in Acts 10:11-14 "and saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners and let down to the earth. Wherein were all manner of four footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. But Peter said, Not so, ADONAI (Lord); for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean." The common thing or unclean animals are referring to the Gentiles because they were considered unclean that's why the Jews were not allowed in their homes or to mingle with them. When you continue reading you will see where the voice spoke a second time and said, "What Yah (God) hath cleansed, that call not thou common." Through Cornelius, the most high opened the door to any Gentiles who believe in his son YAHUSHA (whom they call Jesus) will not perish and have everlasting life. In verse 34 "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth, I perceive that Yah is not a respecter of persons: but in every nation, he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him."
Acts 15:14 "Simeon hath declared how Yah at first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name." The most high wanted Israel to know that if they keep seeking other elohiyms and continue to be a stiffnecked people that he will choose another nation over them. He wanted to provoke them to jealousy. That's why the children of Israel get punished so harshly and were continually led into captivity because of their disobedient. As you research, you will find more scriptures to compare and contrast. Romans 11:11 "I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? Yah forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy." Are you seeing and understanding what is said? Like I said there are many other verses as you do your research. So, there you have it and I hope this opens your understanding. So, when someone tells you John 3:16 is for everyone you can now shed some light because the mother of all church has done a lot of damages teaching false doctrine. I also want to remind you Gentiles remember the children of Israel is still the chosen one so do not boast. I will do a blog on Gentiles cut off. Ha! You didn't know that did you? I will elaborate more on it.
Revelation 14: 8 "And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. "
Get out of the Matrix! So, run, people, run for your life!
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14" Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear Yah (God), and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For Yah shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil."
