If you don't know who Israel is, you don't know God. If you don't keep His law ans say that you know him, you are a liar. The Lord only knows those that Keep his law. R U keeping his Law.

Laylo Q,
"Do you really know God?"
Jesus let me know who God is. Yes.
"If you don't know who Israel is, you don't know God."
Any Christian who doesn't recognize Israel as being the place where Jesus will return and set His feet upon the Mount of Olives, and save His people, does not know the Bible.
"R U keeping his Law."
Romans 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Romans 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 9:30 ¶What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Yes. I am keeping His Law.

I know Israel is faithless and that God took away what he gave to Israel and gave it to the church which he personally founded.
I know that Jesus fulfilled the law, set it aside, and replaced it with the new covenant in his blood.
Why are you attempting to keep a law that no longer exists? What does this say about who you think you know?

Yes, I really know God. I know his personal name (Jehovah, Elohim, Adhoni, YHWH [Yahweh], depending on the translation), his purpose of the earth (Genesis 1), what he loves, what he abhors, what he requires from us and the life that he wants me to live.
Speaking of Isreal. Jehovah God was very close to Israel. The Red Sea and the 40 years in the wilderness, Jehovah delivered them. Jehovah took care of his people. Then, the Israelites began to murmur and wish they were back in Egypt and living the life they once did and even worshiped golden calves. They complained about the manna they were given day after day, barely noticing that that was the food that would aid their survival in wilderness. Jehovah gave the Israelites everything, but the Israelites really let Jehovah God down when they worshiped false God and ultimately killed his only-begotten son Jesus Christ. Jehovah already left the Israelites at this point. He gave them numerous chances to repent, but decided (out of free will) to be independent from God.
Still to this very day, the Israelites/Jews think that they are "chosen ones" when Jehovah/Elohim/Yahweh/YHWH/Adhoni left them thousands of years ago. How misguided these people are. How sad!
Abstaining from blood, fleeing from fornication, loving our neighbor, using his personal name, refrain from defiling the flesh (ex. Not smoking or endangering my body), not putting my trust in nobles, or priests nor governments, being neutral in political affairs, respecting and obeying superior authorities (as long as their regulations do not conflict with Godly principles), loving our enemies, preaching the good news (Matthew 24:14, 28:19,20) just as Jesus Christ did, praying incessantly and praying to Jehovah God through Jesus Christ, reading God's word daily and learn, meditate and apply these principles in our daily lives. These are just a few of many rules/standards/principles and laws that I am required to abide by from God's Inspired Word The Bible.
Since I am answering this question first, I will end it here and allow others to chime in...

I know the real one and only God. Not the God men have created. The God that created men.
Quit trying to give God human qualities. You are making God smaller than he is.

Remember that:
"The Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ so that we may be justified by faith." Galatians 3:24
