Have you’ve ever wondered about the connection between Christianity and the Jewish people?\u00a0 Obviously Jesus himself was a Jew, as were all 12 of his disciples.\u00a0 So the Christian church was started by Jews in Israel and spread out from there.\u00a0 But the church also felt a disconnect because most Jews (especially most of the religious leaders) rejected Christ and, of course,\u00a0 had him crucified.\u00a0 And what’s interesting to think about is that Jesus said he came to his people.\u00a0 And if you read through the New Testament, you see that because Jesus was rejected by most of his own, the Gentiles adopted into Christ’s church.\u00a0 But what’s even more interesting is that God has not abandoned the Jews.\u00a0 Gentile believers have been grafted in to the God’s tree, but Daniel 9 helps to reveal that God has not forgotten his promise to Abraham, and still has big plans for the children of Abraham.\u00a0 But because Jesus met with so much resistance from his own, he has turned his attention to everybody else, and is hoping to use Gentile believers to entice the Jewish people back into the plans that God has to bless them.\u00a0 And once those plans kick back into gear, there are going to be big things happening in the world!<\/p>\n
