Jewish Salvation

Just a thought for Christians who appreciate Israel but despair over their eternal salvation. The Bible is clear that Jews are saved as a people, that includes those that make up the nation. In the Bible the goal of the Law Covenant was the salvation of the nation as a whole. End time redemption will dawn upon the whole people by the hand of Messiah. That's Paul's thought in Romans 11, the Lord will come from Zion and redeem Jacob. So when Messiah is manifested to save Israel in the coming tribulation all of Israel will be saved, not just a small remnant of Christianized Jews.

This is a basic conceptual difference from inividualist salvation usually held by Christians. In the Jewish aspect Individual sin and unrighteousness are encompassed by the whole arrangement of Torah which includes repentance and restoration. Gentile Christians have had to approach God in a different way since there is no equivalent for them as in the Jewish arrangement. That's what Jesus Christ provides for gentiles, an individual way to approach the G_d of Israel. Attempts at Jewish evangelism heaken back to established patterns of Christian forced conversion. Do not worry, G_d will provide for the redemption of all of his people. That's in the coming times of restoration and refreshing Peter describes in Acts 3.
