Paul speaking about Isael:
Romans11:11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written,
There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer,
and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: Is. 59.20


27 for this is my covenant unto them,
when I shall take away their sins. Jer. 31.33, 34


28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

31 even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.

33 ¶ O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor? Is. 40.13

35 or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? Job. 41.11

36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

So you think its talking about Jews at the end times, the 7000. I was thinking it was for all jews, because it said god blinded them so that we would get grace. So, the elected will have mercy on them as god had mercy on us.

If your not a Christian, don't answer. I can worry about whatever I want to

I stand up for Jews a lot. It is better than Muslims and other Christians that want to persecute them. If I went by my former belief I would say you go to hell for not accepting Jesus

No, salvation is always a matter of faith and the grace of God. Whoever who God has chosen will be saved, and those who are chosen will have faith in God. Whether Jew or Gentile, God saves. In the Old Testament, there were certain Jews (i.e. the Jewish saints, like the patriarchs) who were saved among the nation of Israel. Not all of the nation of Israel were saved, just like not all who claim to be Christians are saved; it's always a matter of whether the individual truly believes.

Both the Jews of the OT who looked forward to the Messiah's saving sacrifice (even though they never saw it - they had faith in God's word and promise) and Christians who look back with faith on His death are saved and will be in His eternal kingdom.

The Deliverer, or Jesus Christ came out of the Jewish liniage. He was, and is the Messiah they had been looking for for generations. But, all but a few of the Jews of that day rejected Him, because He did not match the image they imagined when they thought of the coming conquering King. Because the one ( Jesus) allowed Himself to be killed on the cross( for us), most of them rejected Him as the Messiah. Many Jews today still reject Him. If God's chosen people, the Jews, do not accept Jesus as their personal Saviour, they will, according to the Bible, go to Hell in the judgement. That's God's Word talking, not me.Anyone who rejects Him, not just the Jews, will be in Hell eternally !

I second Crono on this one.
Its all about the intent and inclination of the heart.
If there is a Jew who goes through all the ritual but his heart isn't in it
then he's not making it into the new Jerusalem, but if there is a person never exposed to the word of God but he lives a righteous life then he gets to go through the pearly gates.

Why is it up to Chr*stians to decide where us Jews go? Leave us alone. We don't bother you or contemplate whether you're getting to Paradise or not. I can answer whatever I want, especially with you high and mighties up there thinking you can contemplate on the fate of the souls of my people.

All of the Elect Jews will be saved at Christ's coming when God pours out his Spirit upon them.

Zechariah 12:8 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them. (9) And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. (10) And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
