    JEW FIRST AND THEN GENTILE

    Romans 1.16
    "to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." (Romans 1.16, 2.9-11).

    Descendants of Jacob, the 12 tribes of Jacob (Israel) have been chosen by GOD to be His people, this was the first race of all the nations of the world to be chosen by GOD and His first choice.

    This first choice of GOD is eternal for all tines and for all generations of Jewish people to come, and not only on Earth but in Heaven as well. Because Heaven is a Spiritual World, people in Heaven no longer divided by their genealogies but all judged and accepted according to their soul, means, all who have Faith in GOD as Abraham had this person no longer Gentile in physical term but Spiritually relates to Abraham and became his Spiritual descendant, because they have the same Spiritual unshakable Faith in GOD.

    ‘I have made you (Abraham) the father of many nations,’ (Genesis 15.5, 17.5, 26.4) (Romans 4.17).

    This GOD said not only in physical term but also and in Spiritual one, so, by own spirit anyone can be a spiritual descendants of Abraham if only have the same Faith as Abraham had (Galatians 3.7.29).

    Jews are among the first who have relationship with GOD and they are the first to whom GOD gave His Laws and Ordinances, and the first prophets of the true GOD are all Jews.

    Many temples to many deities built by Gentiles, but the Jews among the first who built first Temple to One Living true GOD.

    Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD, came in Earth as a Jew, had Jewish parents, and His genealogy very well recorded in all its details twice in the New Testament. Jews established first churches from the synagogues and as the first missionaries and translators of the Old and New Testaments on foreign languages and by this spread Christianity all over the world.

    Just like Christ Himself the First in everything (Colossians 1.15.18) and so His people Jews have always come first among the nations of the world (Exodus 4.22-23) (Jeremiah 2.3, 31.9).

    In Numbers 24.20, Amalek called as "first among the nations." It does not say that Amalek was first born among the nation, but what it actually means is unclear. May be Amalek first among the nation who attack Israelites when they left Egypt during their Exodus, under this context the hostility of Amalek may relate to a word "first." (Exodus 17.8-13).

    Many corrupted churches teach their parishioners that "Christians" replaced Jews as the people of GOD, because Jews fail in their duties and in their responsibilities put upon them by GOD, despite the obvious fact that these corrupted churches are themselves violate many Statutes of Christ and became themselves much worst failure before the GOD than the Jews.

    Jews the first to be judged for good and for evil, for obedience and disobedience, and for everything else for which people received justification and blessings from GOD or condemnation, punishment, and death from Him.
