The Sovereign Lord declares— he who gathers the exiles of Israel: “I will gather still others to them besides those already gathered.”
Isaiah 56:8
God chose Israel out of love and compassion. Made them His own. Out of nowhere they were called as His children.
Now He extends His love through Israel, into the entire world. Israel themselves now has problems. They call them gentiles. They call them outsiders. Outcastes.
Where as the truth is, the earth and all in it is His. We have been originally His. We have been always His. We have always been His children.
Israel was just a means to reach out. Reach out to you and me.
You are His precious always. It is for you that He came down to die. Not one among the few.
For this is what the Lord says: “To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, who choose what pleases me and hold fast to my covenant— to them I will give within my temple and its walls a memorial and a name better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that will endure forever. And foreigners who bind themselves to the Lord to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord, and to be his servants, all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating it and who hold fast to my covenant— these I will bring to my holy mountain and give them joy in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and sacrifices will be accepted on my altar; for my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.
Isaiah 56:4-7
