HHMI - Paul's Life and Letters ~ Pt 12 ~ I will call them “my people” who were not my people

In Romans, Paul is writing to the Northern Kingdom who had assimilated among the peoples. Ultimately, Paul’s teachings are going out to all Nations, peoples and tongues: Even us whom He called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? Romans 9:24 Paul goes on to quote from Hosea, a book that was written to the Northern kingdom, stating the following: “I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved. “And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’There they shall be called sons of the living God. Romans 9:25-26 Paul is addressing and speaking about prophesies to the Northern Kingdom. Here is the prophecy from Deuteronomy 32:21: They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God; They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols. But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation; I will move them to anger by a foolish nation. Who are the people who were “not a people” but who became a people? That is the Northern kingdom, as we can see from Hosea 1:10: “Yet the number of the children of Israel Shall be as the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered. And it shall come to pass In the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There it shall be said to them, ‘You are sons of the living God.’ For more of Eddie Chumney teachings and to listen to beautiful Messianic worship music, visit us at our internet streaming radio station, http://www.hebrootsradio.com/.
