GOD tells ISRAEL, through Moses:
Exodus 19:5
King James Version
5 Now therefore,
if ye will obey my voice indeed,
and keep my covenant,
then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me
above all people:
for all the earth is mine:
Had GOD not made me born again, I wouldn't have turned to the Bible.
And I would have missed out on a lot of His mysteries.
One of which is His love for Israel.
Who was chosen by GOD, for His perfect purpose.
Today, I return to a 25 August 2021 article we wrote.
Reprinting a section of it here.
To remind myself why GOD chose Israel.
-----------------------
Finally, I understood.
Why GOD wanted ISRAEL to be a HOLY nation.
Thanks to the HOLY SPIRIT, I was led to the uncontestable verse:
Exodus 19:6
King James Version
6 And ye shall be unto me
a kingdom of priests,
and an holy nation.
These are the words
which thou shalt speak
unto the children of Israel.
No wonder, the Levites.
No wonder, God kept telling Israel:
Leviticus 11:45
King James Version
45 For I am the Lord that bringeth you
up out of the land of Egypt,
to be your God:
ye shall therefore be holy,
for I am holy.
Leviticus 20:7
King James Version
7 Sanctify yourselves therefore,
and be ye holy: for I am the Lord your God.
Leviticus 20:26
King James Version
26 And ye shall be holy unto me:
for I the Lord am holy,
and have severed you from other people,
that ye should be mine.
-----------------------
Lastly, apostle Peter contends:
1 Peter 2:9-10
King James Version
9 But ye are a chosen generation,
a royal priesthood,
an holy nation,
a peculiar people;
that ye should shew forth the praises of him
who hath called you out of darkness
into his marvellous light;
10 Which in time past were not a people,
but are now the people of God:
which had not obtained mercy,
but now have obtained mercy.
Thus, we learn Israel is a priestly race.
No wonder Israel is the apple of GOD's eye.
GOD has great plans for Israel.
Which no man can thwart.
May Israel awaken to her divine destiny.
