The Jewish people need to receive Jesus Christ, but they never will.

Ezekiel 3:1-7

“Moreover He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.” So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that scroll.” Ezekiel 3:1-2

The Gospel of Jesus Christ needs to be brought to the Jewish people. Their Bible is the only the Old Testament as they discard the entire New Testament. They reject Jesus Christ as their Messiah, Lord, and Savior, and reject any prophecy pointing to Him as the Son of God and their Savior.

As followers of Jesus Christ, God wants us to ingest the Holy Scriptures, and whatever we are able to find to chew on is what we should be reading. The Holy Spirit will help us to digest it so that we can bring the Gospel of Christ to others, including the Jewish culture.

“And He said to me, “Son of man, feed your belly, and fill your stomach with this scroll that I give you.” So I ate, and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.” Ezekiel 3:3 

God wants us to fill up on the words of the Holy Bible. The words are sweet like honey through the Spirit of Christ. There is Salvation for the whosoever and judgment against those who harm His people. “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

“Then He said to me: “Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them.” Ezekiel 3:4 

2000 years ago, Jesus Christ brought the Good News of the kingdom of God to the Jewish people. This is a message of being born again by the Spirit of God and not by the letter of the Old Testament law, “…not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” 2 Corinthians 3:6.

The Jewish people rejected the testimony of Jesus and refused to become Christians. Because they exalt the Jewish culture above the Gospel of Jesus Christ, they were given their nation called the State of Israel. God gathered them there in 1948 to execute the wrath of His judgment on them. Israel has been in 18 wars since they were established in 1948. There was even a war in 1948. Click for a list of those wars and scroll close to the bottom of the page. If the Jewish people had received Jesus Christ, they would not be Jewish they would be Christian. If they were Christians, the State of Israel would never have existed because we do not have a nation on this earth to call our own. We look forward to our nation in the New Jerusalem within the new heaven and earth.

We are to speak the testimony of Jesus to the Jewish people and everyone who will hear.

“For you are not sent to a people of unfamiliar speech and of hard language, but to the house of Israel, not to many people of unfamiliar speech and of hard language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely, had I sent you to them, they would have listened to you.” Ezekiel 3:5-6

Ezekiel was not sent to people who had no idea what the Ten Commandments were, he was sent to the people of Israel who were well educated on the word of God. Jesus Christ Himself was sent to His own, “But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Matthew 15:24 If anyone was able to understand the message of Jesus Christ, it should have been the Jewish people.

The Gospel of Jesus was brought to us non-Jewish because we listen to Him, but the Jewish rejected Him, “Then Paul and Barnabas grew bold and said, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first; but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles. For so the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have set you as a light to the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.’” Acts 13:46-47

As followers of Jesus Christ, God asks us to bring His Gospel to those whose spirit and soul are of good soil and receptive to the Good News. Those who are of an unfamiliar speech are people who are hardened in their spirit against Jesus and are oppressive to the Holy Spirit. The parable of the sower reveals the good soil and the unproductive soil.

“But the house of Israel will not listen to you, because they will not listen to Me; for all the house of Israel are impudent and hard-hearted.” Ezekiel 3:7

The Jewish people didn’t listen to Jesus Christ 2000 years ago and they will not listen to His gospel today. They are hard-hearted and impudent. That is why the Israelis are facing the wrath of God’s judgment within the State of Israel.
