ADAPTED SONS OF GOD AND SPIRITUALITY

ADAPTED SONS OF GOD AND SPIRITUALITY

Romans 9.3-4
In verse 4 Paul approached this subject from another angle and said this time that Israelites are not just chosen but adapted by GOD as His sons. Actually, it does not make much difference in terms of selection, but perhaps make difference in terms of Faith and Spirituality.

Israelites not always have been obedient to GOD and because of it the next generation of chosen but disobedient people must be adapted (to be chosen again) in order to continue their existence as the people of GOD.

To be more precise, GOD actually made Himself a nation, from one He had chosen, the Abraham. If Abraham would be an ordinary man and would not follow his GOD, he most likely would die childless, and someone else will take his place.

But because Abraham feared the Lord and obeyed Him and most important of all had Faith in Him, GOD MADE a nation out of him and gave him and his descendants everlasting promises, and they became the people of GOD forever.

But far not all the Jews are adapted by GOD, because adaptation or (selection) based not only on physical genealogy but mostly on Spirituality. Through the history of Israel GOD care, protect, bless, and saved only Spiritual Jews who had Faith in Him, obeyed Him, and fear Him, and worship and served Him from the heart (soul).

The rest of the Jews who do not Spiritual but physical GOD left to their own devices and they are not considered as the People of GOD, because they lack Spirituality and cannot worship and serve GOD according to His will.

This is not applying only to Jews. Everyone among Gentiles should remember that a person must be Spiritual in order to be with GOD, means, obeying Statutes and Commandments of GOD from the heart and live only according to His Laws and Regulations from the heart - Spiritually, otherwise, any other who does not, will be rejected.

No nation on Earth received from GOD anything of what that received the nation of Israel and not anyone on Earth received any of GOD'S Promises that He has given only to Abraham and all his descendants.

But those Gentiles who worship and serving GOD of Israel from the heart obeying His Commandments, they will also inherit all the promises of Abraham what GOD gave to him and to his descendants, because they are also children of GOD.

GOD chose Israel as His adapted sons from the nations of the Earth who hate them, and make Himself as their eternal Father, Teacher, and Savior forever.

GOD also cares and for other nations and while some nations GOD completely purged, He keep to Himself all the loyal to Him and from all corners of the world (verse 24).

GOD treat all humankind in the same way as he treats His people Israel, punishing nations for their iniquities and rewarding them for their goodness. So, basically all the people of the Earth are the one GOD'S family, but like in any family on Earth, some members are higher than others, older or younger, firstborn and those who born later.

As it written in the Holy Scripture and still practice in some nations, firstborn always have privilege and all rights of the firstborn, as so is Israel among the nations of the world.
