The Nations of True Israel and the Unbroken Covenants of God<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many today dismiss or spiritualize the prophecies and covenants that God made with the literal house of Israel. Some attempt to collapse the identity of Israel into that of Judah, while others argue that because “Israel shall be called by a new name,” the former covenants are either irrelevant or transferable. These are dangerous assumptions which undermine the Word of God and the foundations of divine order for nations.<\/p>\n

The Covenants and Adoption Belong to Israel<\/h3>\n

Romans 9:4-5<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.”<\/p>\n

The Apostle Paul affirms plainly: all these divine institutions belong to the Israelites, according to the flesh. This includes the covenants\u2014plural. Nowhere are these said to be annulled or given to another people.<\/p>\n

God Has Not Cast Away His People<\/h3>\n

Romans 11:1-2<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.”<\/p>\n

Jeremiah 31:35-37<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day… If those ordinances depart from before me… then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.”<\/p>\n

As long as the sun and moon exist, God declares that Israel remains a nation before Him. There is no language of replacement here.<\/p>\n

Israel Is the Apple of God’s Eye<\/h3>\n

Zechariah 2:8<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.”<\/p>\n

Deuteronomy 32:10<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“He found him in a desert land… he kept him as the apple of his eye.”<\/p>\n

The deep affection and protective jealousy God has for Israel is not revoked\u2014it is enduring.<\/p>\n

Israel’s Name and Role Are to Be Multiplied, Not Erased<\/h3>\n

Genesis 35:10-11<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name… a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee.”<\/p>\n

Isaiah 62:2<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“And thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.”<\/p>\n

This “new name” was never to negate Israel\u2019s identity, but to fulfill and glorify it as it became a multitude of nations\u2014especially through Ephraim (Genesis 48:19<\/a>).<\/p>\n

God’s Election Includes Nations and Borders<\/h3>\n

Deuteronomy 32:8<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.”<\/p>\n

National identity, tribal lands, and ancestral customs are not worldly ideas but divine boundaries set by God Himself.<\/p>\n

Loving Preservation of Heritage Is Biblical<\/h3>\n

\u041f\u0440\u0438\u0441\u043b\u0456\u0432'\u044f 22:28<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.”<\/p>\n

Jeremiah 6:16<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths… and walk therein.”<\/p>\n

Preserving one’s heritage, customs, and moral law is not an act of hatred, but obedience to God.<\/p>\n

The Anglo-Israel Fulfillment: A Testimony of God\u2019s Faithfulness<\/h3>\n

The British, Saxon, and related peoples have preserved Christian order, law, and faith for centuries. This aligns with the prophetic destiny of the house of Joseph, especially Ephraim:<\/p>\n

Genesis 48:19<\/a> (KJV)<\/strong>
\n“His seed shall become a multitude of nations.”<\/p>\n
