"when the son of man (Jesus pbuh referring to himself) shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye (the disciples) also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel" (Matthew 19: 28).
Only 12 tribes of Israel?
As Bible tells us that Jesus was sent for the people of Israel, though I know people would say that He claimed that I m the way to Father, and Salvation. But He was only talking to the people o Israel.He never said that I m the way to salvation for the whole of humanity.So I wonder what Christian faces be like If Jesus in his 2nd comming says this to the christians other than those of the Israel.
Reff: Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
(Mathew 7:22-23)

You don't know Scripture very well, do you? Salvation came first to the Jews, they are God's chosen people. But through Jesus' death on the cross Salvation came to the whole world, and through Israel's fall / rejection of Jesus Salvation is come to the Gentiles, that would be me and other non-jewish Christians. "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. Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness ( Romans 11:12 ). God chose the Christians just as He chose the Jews, and one day very soon we both will be united in a new Israel, the New Jerusalem where Jesus Christ will rule.

Jesus will say "I never knew you" to some who say they are Christians and that will be devastating. He will say it to EVERY single Muslim though, so they are in for a really big surprise.
If you read the WHOLE Bible, instead of picking a verse here and there, you will know that Jesus originally came for the Jews, but then included the gentiles also. You should get your nose out of the quran and actually learn the truth.

Their faces will look unfaithful, untrue, hypocritical.He see's the heart and soul not just the face.He will know who's who.The children of Israel represent the whole of humanity,you can't take everything literally, read between the lines there is much more than meets the eye in the Bible..

You're all mixed up, but I can't untangle this right now. If you're really interested in understanding the Bible for the building of the Body of Christ, send off for this free Bible. It has lots and lots of explanation and cross references, and that question won't be hard to understand if you read here: www.biblesforamerica.org
There's no charge, no obligation, no nothing, not ever. And if you want more literature later, it's free too. They're non-profit, have their own funding, and work mostly on volunteer labor. They just want to spread the word of God.

Yes Jesus will disassociate himself from such blasphemy. Jesus was indeed sent to the Jews to correct what they altered, hence the bible. But like they did before, they attempted to kill another prophet.

You're right! We do need to have an intimate relationship with Jesus he isn't impressed with works, whether feeding the poor or doing miracles. If we do not "know him" and seek to know him he also will say he did not know us.

I have no doubt that many people who believe Jesus exists, like some Christians, Muslims and Satan, will face Hell.
