Who Are God’s Chosen People?

Many of us grew up believing that Jewish people alone are G-d’s chosen people. But upon further examination of the evidence, this is not entirely correct. The truth is that Israel is God’s chosen people and Israel is made up of twelve tribes. Who we see as Jewish people today are only from one of those tribes and also part of Benjamin!

Initially there were the twelve tribes of Israel, mush like Jesus and his twelve apostles. All of the tribes were God’s people, not just one. But God’s favor rested mostly on Judah and Joseph, with Judah leading the way when they marched. Eventually there was a split and the northern part of Israel became known as still Israel and the southern kingdom was called Judah. To this day there is still speculation as to who these northern tribes are. But many have researched them throughout Europe and even America.

So while Judah and the jewish people are indeed God’s chosen people, so are the rest of Israel! Through some of my research I have been trying to find these lost tribes. Many people living in Europe and America are from what I believe to be the lost house of Israel. In the end God promises to bring two sticks together, one from Ephraim (Joseph’s son) and one from Judah. Some see Christianity representing Ephraim, so bringing christians and jews together would be the fulfillment of this prophecy.

You may actually be a part of God’s chosen people Israel and not know it. God promises in the end that the jealousy of Ephraim at Judah will stop. How he will do this noone knows, but it is a promise. Much of the anti-semitism to this days actually stems from an age old score or divorce between Israel and Judah. It has been in fact Israel persecuting the jewish people and of course it has gone both ways. So the lost house of Israel has had a grudge against Judah out of jealousy. But somehow God will take this jealousy away. If you have a thing against jews, it may be an age old grudge you are not aware of. And you may be angry at those on your same team.
