My prayer for you is that the God of your fathers may become your God (and Father) too. He is such a comfort and refuge to those who put their trust in Him. Today, you do not know Him because you have not come to Him on His terms. There is a certain sense of pride in not knowing yet suffering as a son of Abraham, a pride that may keep you from His eternal kingdom. Of this you will need to repent before God Almighty. He is not pleased with anyone who glories in his flesh – Jeremiah 9:23-24.
He has sent His Servant to suffer and die in order to bring new life based upon a just and adequate redemption – Isaiah 53. Someone had to bear your sins or you must face the living God with your sins – Romans 3:21-26; 5:6- 11.
The record of His new covenant is that Jesus Christ the Lord has died, the just for the unjust, in order to bring us to God. Through Jesus and Jesus alone is salvation. He is the Christ of God Almighty. May He grant you eyes to see.
Some Jews reject Christ now with the thought that they will believe in Jesus Christ if and when He comes. This may be possible for some, yet it seems like a false assurance that you could wait for Him and, then, be saved. Consider what the apostle Paul says in 2 Thessalonians 2:11. There he warned by the Holy Spirit that those who have willfully rejected the claims of Christ on their life while the opportunity was theirs to believe will be given a strong delusion to believe the lie of the coming antichrist. The problem will be that one will come first who will be an imposter, and you (because the truth has been given to you many times) may follow him only to be condemned with him when the true Messiah (Christ) appears. Further, you have no assurance that you will live on earth to see that day. If you pass into P eternity without Christ as your Savior and Lord, then you must pass into eternity without God or hope. This is a dreadful thing to even contemplate for a moment. Like Lot you must flee the city before it is too late. Like Noah you must get into the ark or perish with the world. Like Moses you must come out of Egypt and serve the true and living God now while the opportunity is presented. Today is the day of redemption.
Christ has been made unto us wisdom from God – and righteousness and sanctification and redemption – that, as it is written (Jeremiah 9:24), “He who glories, let him glory in the LORD.”
“Perchance He will also hear”- the good news is that He will hear, if you come to Him His way. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” Please come. He calls. Please listen. If you are really thirsty, “take of the water of life freely.”
Jesus is the Christ of God. Having died at Calvary, He now lives with the Father in heaven being brought alive from the grave. Believe and you will have life. Read John 3:14-16, 36; 14:6; 6:37; 6:35; Revelation 21:6; 22:17 in the New Testament.
