Second, God has chosen the nation of Israel and established a covenant with them, a covenant that Undeclared will be fulfilled when the Jewish people bow the knee at the second coming of Jesus Christ Major If I were a Jewish person, I would not want to die before I made Christ my Savior, because being the “chosen people” does not mean an individual escapes responsibility for rejecting the Gospel As for the Palestinians, they will most likely continue to kill and slaughter long after they have Sibs?
