The people and nations of the world, including the Jewish Nation of Israel, are misled about the true meaning of WHO AND WHAT IS A JEW. Even world religions, including Christianity and Judaism, are confused about the definition of the genuine Jew. 

"WHO IS A GENUINE JEW?" is a basic question about the very controversial Jewish identity. Understanding the right answer to this question is very critical to the survival, peace, and salvation of mankind! We now have to seriously look at the true definition of "Israel, Jew, and Jewishness." Every individual from all nations is now challenged to find her relationship to the Jewish Israel. All of us must realize that inside each human being resides the spirit of Jewishness that must be brought to the open, cultivated, and harnessed for the unity and peace of mankind. 

The Filipino "MAN From The Far East," with the help and inspiration of GOD ALMIGHTY, will explain and remove all the confusions about this very controversial world issue. Please study the series of articles for this super-vital subject.

THE TIME HAS COME TO REVEAL: WHO IS THE REAL JEW? WHAT IS JEWISHNESS? 

The Jews dreamed and expect for the Messiah that will redeem them from exile, and build their destroyed Kingdom, with the 3rd Temple in Jerusalem. Yet, when Jesus Christ, their Messiah, did come, even in their own land in Jerusalem, they did not recognize Him as the Messiah. They even planned and instigated the crucifixion of their Messiah. Why?

The Gentiles recognized Christ as the Savior or the Messiah of Mankind. This started a new world religion called Christianity. History shows the on-going conflicts between this once united world religions. Christianity and Judaism have been in conflict and wars for many centuries. Another world religion, called Islam, also from a son of Abraham, entered the religious conflicts, also against Israel -- the Jews. So, more destruction, wars, and death resulted and are still in continuous destruction even up to the present generation. 

Today, the whole world is being mind-controlled to go against the small nation of Israel, and the individual Jews are under attack everywhere. Why? It's because the whole world does not really understand the true meaning and definition of WHO AND WHAT IS A JEW!

WHO AND WHAT IS A JEW? WILL THE REAL JEW PLEASE STAND UP?

For us to remove any doubt and confusion about Who and WHAT is the real Jew, we must go to the most authoritative of all the sources of the word "Jew" -- the Bible. The Book of Romans, chapter 2, verse 29, gives the true definition of "WHO IS REALLY THE JEW,"

• For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that outwardly in flesh. But he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God. (Rom 2:28-29 MKJV)

CIRCUMCISION IS NOW PRIMARILY OF THE HEART, and BY CHRIST

Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your Heart, and be no more stiffnecked. (Deu 10:16 KJV)

Circumcise yourselves to the LORD; remove the foreskin of your hearts, men of Judah and residents of Jerusalem. Otherwise, My wrath will break out like fire and burn with no one to extinguish it because of your evil deeds.  (Jer 4:4 HCSB)

• The LORD your God will circumcise your heart and the hearts of your descendants, and you will love Him with all your Heart and all your Soul, so that you will live. (Deu 30:6 HCSB)

So, the new meaning of a Jew is a matter of ATTITUDE, SPIRIT, and PRINCIPLE (Colossians 2:11).  

• …You are CIRCUMCISED with  the CIRCUMCISION MADE WITHOUT HANDS, in PUTTING OFF the body of the sins of the flesh BY THE CIRCUMCISION OF CHRIST. (Col 2:11 MKJV) 

A Jew is not just a person living in Israel, or someone that physically descended from the Tribe of Judah. A Jew is not just someone with a Jewish blood, but someone with the JEWISH SPIRIT.

The Jewish spirit is the Spirit of the first Adam before the sin. The ultimate Jew is Jesus Christ Himself, the 2nd Adam. And the True Religion is the religion preached and practiced by the Jewish Jesus Christ.

The "FLESH AND BLOOD" JEWS CANNOT ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD!

If the Jews (Israelites) on mount Sinai did not commit the sin of the Golden Calf, the entire Jewish nation would have been transformed from being the "Jews in the flesh" to become the immortal "Jews in the Spirit." But, because they sinned, Moses broke the first Tablets of Testimony, which contain the living Kabbalah Knowledge, Wisdom, and the Power of Immortal Life. God then replaced the broken Tablets of Immortal Life by the 2nd-grade Tablets of the Ten Commandments, which reduces the Torah or Bible to a mortal, "fleshy level." The Physical Jews then stayed with Mortal Life influenced by Satan; the same as that of the Gentiles (Revelation 3:9).

• Behold, I will make them of the SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN, which SAY THEY ARE JEWS, and ARE NOT, but DO LIE; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. (Rev 3:9 KJV)

NOT ALL DESCENDANTS OF ISRAEL ARE ISRAEL. NOT ALL ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN ARE SEEDS OF ABRAHAM

• But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. Neither are they all children because they are Abraham's descendants. On the contrary, in Isaac your seed will be called. (Rom 9:6-7)

• That is, it is not the children by physical descent who are God's children, but the children of the promise are considered seed. (Rom 9:8)

Only the "Jews in Spirit," the real Jews in mind and heart, not in the physical race or blood, can enter the Kingdom of God! This means that both the Gentiles and the physical Jews must convert to the supernal Jewishness or Judaism of the King Messiah -- Jesus Christ!

So, today, the modern definition and description of a genuine Jew are not found in the dictionaries, nor in history books, not even in many religious books. The true definition of a Jew can only be found in the Bible, particularly in Romans 2:28-29. 

So, now, the basis for the correct definition of a real Jew is not the race or "in the flesh," but rather in the heart or "in the spirit" of being a Jew. Therefore, all the promises that God gave to the Jews before are now given also to the true Jewish Christians today!
