Daily Devotional – September 13th

Paul, the Ultimate Replacement Theologian,

Part 4
.
Do So-Called “Replacement Theology” Christians Hate Jews?

“And when He (Jesus) saw a fig tree…said unto it,
Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever!
And…the fig tree withered away.”
Matthew 21:19
.
.

.
.
“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God…because they are spiritually discerned.”
1st Corinthians 2:14
.
As this above verse reveals, it is one of the great purposes of “the god of this world”, the Devil, to blind men from the spiritual nature of the Bible.
.
But the fact is, many in the church-going community do not seem to understand, nor do they care, that the Bible is largely a book of types and symbols and proverbs and allegories.

REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY?
.
Satan has worked overtime condemn those who believe that New Testament Israel is actually a “spiritual Israel”, made up of both Jews and gentiles!
.
And to further weaponize his attacks, this chief-slanderer even slanders them with a unbiblical, derogatory tag known as “Replacement Theology”.

“That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel…”
Ephesians 2:12
.
Now, this website has given many biblical proofs that all those who love Jesus are the true “Israel of God” (Galatians 5:16)…
.
…and the reader is invited to explore those articles (some being suggested at the end of this article).
.
But this devotional is likewise dedicated to refuting the ridiculous accusation, that so-called “Replacement Theology” Christians actually hate Israel “after the flesh” (1st Corinthians 10:18)…
.
…and this lie originates from that wily old Accuser and slanderer, Satan…
.
…who strives to keep the Church from realizing the true spiritual nature of the Bible…
.
…thus, blinding the Church from the “Hidden Manna” found throughout Scripture in the form of parables, allegories, types and shadows!

“For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh”
Romans 9:3
.
Oh yes, there are, no doubt, many false-brethren who probably do hate the Jews!
.
But no true Believer hates Jews, but rather, loves them intensely, and prays for their salvation!
.
Paul even wished that he himself would be condemned if he could save his brethren Jews “according to the flesh” (see Romans 9:3).
.
And this should be the same stance that any Christian should also maintain!

“Destroy this Temple and…I (Jesus) will raise it up.”
John 2:19
.
Jesus here in this above verse was not talking about a physical Temple, but he was speaking of the Temple of His body.
.
And while today’s Bible teachers are mostly misdirecting their sheep to the idea that a literal brick-n-mortar Temple will be rebuilt…
.
…an earthly structure in which sacrifices of animals will once again be resumed, the fact is, this will never happen!
.
Oh well, they might attempt to do this, and yet, God will not be in it! That’s all passed back in the 30’s A.D….
.
Truth-be-told, if Satan can convince God’s people that the book of Revelation concerns only literal Jews, then he has successfully cut off the true understanding of the book of Revelation.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
The very Good News is, that God has given us time to search out these great errors and return to the Lord in deep humility and meekness…
.
…and rejoicing that “the eyes of your understanding be enlightened” to the entirety of the Holy Scriptures! Ephesians 1:18
.
.
.
TODAY’S PRAYER…
“Dear Lord, Give me the same love for “Israel, after the flesh”, which Paul confessed to have as we read of in 1st Corinthians 10:18…

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
HEAVENLY OBJECT LESSON
.
When God created the Moon and the stars, He ordained them to “rule the night” (Genesis 1:16).
.
The Moon, especially when it is full, can light your pathway through the night, as it reflects the light of the Sun.
.
So too, the Christian is to be a light to the world: to this sin-darkened world.
.
But as the Moon must reflect the light of the Sun, in order to be a light to the world…
.
…so also, must the Christian reflect the light of Jesus, to be a spiritual light to this planet in rebellion.
.
Listen…“Ye are the light of the world…
Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
Matthew 5:14-16
.
However, during an eclipse, the Earth passes directly between the Sun and the Moon, preventing that sunlight from shining on the Moon’s face.
.
This is an incredible object-lesson about when the child of God allows the world to come between him and his Lord.
.
Like the eclipse, that person no longer reflects the light of Jesus, because his or her love of this dark world of sin has eclipsed the light from the “Sun of Righteousness” (see Malachi 4:2).
.
And so, this is just one of the many poetic truths seen in the Moon. (For more on this subject of an eclipse, you may link to the article… “Lunar Eclipse & Spiritual Eclipse”)
