24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Mt 15:24. (take note of that contraction. It is exclusive not inclusive of anyone else. - Doh!)
And He was sent as per the Jewish Covenants and Jewish prophets prophesying to and for Israel.
There is the Jews and Jesus Christ - Messiah - Israel's Messiah - came to and for the Jews.
To His own
First.
And so, the real mystery here is why a non-Jew is pushing a Jews-only messiah and covenant.
The answer must lie in the unrepented sinners' gospel of inward purity with outward unrighteousness.
And so we begin with the fact that God's covenant is never without blood. Bulls and goats in the Old, and His Lamb in the New. The blood of the old covenant only covered the sinning, while the blood of the new covenant washes and takes away the all the sinning.
The new covenant therefore, first commands repenting from all sins and trespasses:
Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
And here we have the first proof of being on the right track: A Jews-only new covenant
only commands Jews to repent, and not really all men as the Bible says.
Next, the blood of the Lamb's covenant is for Jews-only.
Hence, Gentiles forbidden from a Jews-only NT Lamb's covenant, are not commanded to repent of sinning,
nor allowed to be washed free from sinning.
Gentiles can be saved
from condemnation, but not
from sinning, since they can have no part in then NT commandment to repent of sinning and be washed from sins in the blood of the Lamb.
It chimes with other unrepented sinners, who want to believe they have no part in their own salvation by repenting from sinning.
The common lie is: that sinful man can be saved and justified
from condemnation only, while not delivered from the sinning itself by repentance.
It's called the mystery of iniquity: it's the multitude of mysterious ways in which unrepented sinners, that have heard the word of truth, can justify themselves as being saved by the word, without doing the truth.
It's also why Babylon the Great is called Mystery Babylon. It's all the mysterious ways in which man justifies himself, while continuing to transgress the true God., is summed up in the great Mother of Harlot doctrines, christs, covenants, and gospels.
And when John saw here in all her gloriously corrupt munificence, he just had to marvel at it. Especially when he must have asked himself one main question:
"And they try to say they got all this stuff from me? Not to mention all my brethren the prophets and apostles of the Lord God and His Lamb Jesus Christ??"
At the Marriage Supper Israel is there through covenant as God's Bride, and Gentiles are there by invitation to witness the glorious event of God and the covenant people of Israel.
Well, I suppose so long as you get to be there without repenting of your sinning, then you don't mind a sideline seat.
Just to make sure they get to heaven while sinning unto the grave, some people would have Hitler sitting in those spectator seats with them.
This is all about giving lip-service honor to Jews, in order to avoid repenting of sinning to have any covenant of God, whether Jews-only of old, or both Jews and Greeks in the New.
In the end, it's not about you being an unrepented Jew, that does not want the blood of the Lamb to wash and take away your sinning. It's rather about being an unrepented Gentile, that does not want the Lamb's covenant commandment to repent of your sinning.
And of that means no washing of His covenant blood, with only an outsider's seat on the sides of heavenly marital bliss, then so be it.
So long as you're NOT one of the unrepented hard hearted wicked wandering in blackness of darkness forever, then you're cool with that.
And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
