What does it mean that Elohim chose Israel? Differentiating between Elohim’s “conditional” and “unconditional” covenants and their relevance in the current Israel v. Iran/Islam war…

Israel was “chosen” as a Nation of sanctification, a setting apart for Elohim’s eschatological purposes. It’s eternally relevant that Elohim’s sovereign “choices” concerning the introduction of His Messiah into the Realm of Time; this, concerning the destruction of the works of Satan (1 John 3:8b), has nothing to do with the responsibility of Jacob’s children concerning their individual responsibility to trust in Elohim by faith, faith being the KEY to establishing a covenant relationship with the Father; this, from Adam forward. There is a prevailing misnomer and misunderstanding concerning Jacob’s children as Elohim’s chosen; yes, Elohim has set-apart a people group concerning His sovereign eschatological purposes but it’s the “physical Nation of Israel” that received an “unconditional covenant” from Elohim, not the individual Jew or Israelite.

Elohim’s covenant concerning the “Nation” of Israel itself is “unconditional;” that is, Elohim will keep this covenant irrespective of the faithfulness or unfaithfulness of Jacob’s children (Genesis 13:14-17) as Elohim’s covenants concerning the Nation of Israel are of eternal relevance concerning eschatology and the culmination of all things through Messiah; the establishment of a New Covenant providing blood atonement for sin and access to the Kingdom; the defeat of Satan at Golgotha; the Great Commission; the Tribulation; the Millennial Kingdom; the Judgment of Satan and the Condemned; the purification of the Heavens and the Earth by fire; the creation of a New Heaven and New Earth and ultimately the placement of the New Jerusalem and eternal service to Elohim via the resurrection.

These eschatological prophecies must come to pass and the Nation of Israel is a major player in these eschatological events; therefore, be cautious when suggesting that the Jewish-Israeli people are “chosen” when it is the Nation of Israel that Elohim has “unconditionally chosen” as those who are of Jacob’s seed are individually responsible for their personal, intimate, covenant relationship with Elohim which is attainable only by grace through faith; this, as Jacob’s seed has received NO special salvation dispensation apart from the prerequisite offered the Gentile from Adam forward; that is, grace through faith (Hebrews 11).

Israel – Elohim – Allah/Islam – Satan’s motives revealed…

Also note, Israel’s children and their relationship with Elohim as a “Nation of Israelite’s” (blessing and cursing) was “conditionally” predicated upon “National Obedience” as per Deuteronomy 28 and though Jacob’s children failed to maintain covenant with Elohim as per these mandates, Elohim is “unconditionally” obligated to Israel as a Nation, a Nation that is the “focal point” of all eschatology going forward; this, but one reason Satan through Islam fervently seeks to erase the Nation of Israel from the Global geographical map. Islam’s Allah is Satan masquerading as an “angel of light” via the Arabic moon god (2 Corinthians 11:14); therefore, understand that Islam’s obsession with the complete annihilation of the Nation of Israel and “wiping Israel from the map” is purely spiritual as Satan seeks to nullify Elohim’s unconditional promises thereby making Elohim a liar; this spiritual motive of Satan also under girding the Jewish Holocaust as Islam allied with Hitler to formalize and enact the “final solution.”

Unconditional v. Conditional Covenants,

Differentiating Elohim’s “unconditional” and “conditional” covenants concerning Israel and Jacob’s seed is eternally relevant as Jacob’s children are currently under divine judgment for their rejection of the Great Commission; their rejection and conspiratorial murder of Messiah; their insistence that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25); Jewish-Israeli continued rejection, unbelief, in Messiah Yeshua (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27; Romans 9-11) yet Elohim WILL sustain the Nation of Israel NOT due His conditional covenants with Jacob’s seed but due His “unconditional covenant” concerning the Nation of Israel, its strategic location and eschatological relevance going forward; therefore, pray for the Nation of Israel, pray for peace in Jerusalem and pray for the individual Jew and Israelite that they might trust in Yeshua as their Messiah who died for them and thereby LIVE by faith and not in self-righteousness through Torah Law.
