-
A believing Gentile is a brother/sister in the house of Alahayim through faith in Yache and doing the will of His Father.
Matthew 12:48-50
[48]But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
[49]And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my
brethren!
[50]For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and
mother.
-
Believing Gentiles are not the same as unbelieving Gentiles. believing Gentiles are made nigh by the blood of Christ so they are are fellow citizens with the saints, and partaker of the promises.
Ephesians 2:11-13,19
[11]Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by
that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
[12]That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers
from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without Alahayim in the world:
[13]But now in Christ Yache ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
[19]Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of
the household of Alahayim;
-
(They are not Hebrews by race, yet they are no longer viewed as strangers because they are brethren through faith and fellow citizens with the Saints.)
-
The Lord Yache is calling unto the Gentiles too and they also shall be Ahayah's people.
Isaiah 65:1
[1]I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me,
behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
-
The righteous Gentiles shall be joined unto Ahayah and be his people too:
Zechariah 2:11
[11]And many nations shall be joined to Ahayah in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the
midst of thee, and thou shalt know that Ahayah of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
Isaiah 56:8
[8]Adonoye AHAYAH which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
-
The Gentiles are those "others" that shall be gathered along with Israel:
Joh 10:14
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
Joh 10:15
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
-
(The sheep is the house of Israel.)
Joh 10:16
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
-
(The other sheep are of the heathen that are not of the fold of the house of Israel. Yache is the shepherd of the believing Gentiles as well and he has called unto them of old time.)
2 Esdras 2:34-39
[34]And therefore I say unto you, O ye heathen, that hear and understand, look for your Shepherd, he shall
give you everlasting rest; for he is nigh at hand, that shall come in the end of the world.
[35]Be ready to the reward of the kingdom, for the everlasting light shall shine upon you for evermore.
[36]Flee the shadow of this world, receive the joyfulness of your glory: I testify my Saviour openly.
[37]O receive the gift that is given you, and be glad, giving thanks unto him that hath led you to the
heavenly kingdom.
-
These believing Gentiles will cleave unto Israel.
Isaiah 14:1
[1]For Ahayah will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and
the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
-
Jacob and Israel is comprised of the 12 tribes, so the strangers that shall be joined with them are of the people from among the 70 Gentile nations. They shall be eager for the law in the kingdom
Isaiah 2:2-3
[2]And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of Ahayah's house shall be established in
the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
[3]And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Ahayah, to the house of
the Alahayim of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Ahayah from Jerusalem.
-
For confirmation that not all Gentiles are the same, the believers in the N.T. saw the believing Gentiles as brethren and didn't look at them as uncommon or unclean.
Acts 10:28,34-35,45
[28]And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep
company, or come unto one of another nation; but Alahayim hath shewed me that I should not call any man
common or unclean.
[34]Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that Alahayim is no respecter of persons:
[35]But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.
[45]And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that
on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 11:18
[18]When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified Alahayim, saying, Then hath Alahayim also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.
Acts 15:23
[23]And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting
unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:
-
True Israelites rejoice to see the Gentiles turn unto Yache and become brethren.
Acts 14:27
[27]And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that Alahayim had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.
Acts 15:3
[3]And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the
conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
-
Though not all Gentiles will believe the gospel, there is still mercy upon the unbelievers of the Gentiles from Alahayim. The unbelievers of the Gentiles, who neither knew or trodden down the seed of Jacob, shall be spared and given grace to get things on the right track as servants in the kingdom of Yache.
II Baruch 72:2
2 After the signs have come, of which you were told before, when the nations become turbulent, and the time of My Messiah is come, he shall both summon all the nations, and some of them he shall spare, and some of them he shall slay.
3 These things therefore shall come upon the nations which are to be spared by Him.
4 Every nation, which knows not Israel and has not trodden down the seed of Jacob, shall indeed be spared.
5 And this because some out of every nation shall be subjected to your people.
-
There will be tranquility in the kingdom,[II Baruch 74:1] and it is unlawful to oppress or vex a stranger,[Exo 22:21] so Gentiles shall serve in tranquility in the kingdom.
II Baruch 74:1
'And it shall come to pass in those days that the reapers shall not grow weary, nor those that build be toil-worn; for the works shall of themselves speedily advance together with those who do them in much tranquility.
Exodus 22:21
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Deu 10:19
Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
-
It will be peaceful and they will be treated with love as neighbors since Yache will do all things in righteousness. They will not be in hard labour like the Hebrews were in this world because Ahayah is righteous and doesn't render evil for evil. The Hebrews will be serving the Gentiles too as priest and ministers in the faith of Alahayim, both theirs and ours:
Isaiah 61:6
[6]But ye shall be named the Priests of Ahayah: men shall call you the Ministers of our Alahayim: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
-
All the people will be offering sacrifices and prayers in the house of Alahayim in the kingdom.
Isaiah 56:6-7
[6]Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to Ahayah, to serve him, and to love the name of
Ahayah, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my
covenant;
[7]Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt
offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of
prayer for all people.
-
Some Gentiles shall even come to live in the land of Israel with the Hebrews in the kingdom.
Ezekiel 44:9
[9]Thus saith Adonoye AHAYAH; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh,
shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel.
Ezekiel 47:22-23
[22]And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers
that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the
country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
[23]And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his
inheritance, saith Adonoye AHAYAH.
-
Israelites are not Gentiles by race, but when an Israelite dies in sin they are reckoned among the Gentiles nations:
Jubilees 44:34
And in the land of Canaan two sons of Judah died, Er and Onan, and they had no children, and the children of Israel buried those who perished, and they were reckoned among the seventy Gentile nations.
-
Hopefully this helps for clarity that only way an Israelite can become a Gentile is if they die in their sins.
-
In closing, not all Gentiles are the same, some are brethren through faith by the Spirit, while others are not of the household of Alahayim through faith in Christ Yache.
