Gentiles are Joint-Heirs to God’s Kingdom

Ephesians 3:6 ““that the Gentiles are joint-heirs, and a joint-body, and joint-partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus, through the gospel,” - Berean Literal Bible You know of course that the “Gentiles” Paul refers to here, are the nations, the non-Jews, the pagans, not so? And what’s more… do you notice the “are” in present infinitive format in this verse? The “Gentiles” referred to here, are ALL the Gentiles… not just a few elect. All are partakers of the promise of Jesus Christ. And what are the promises of Jesus Christ? Let’s see… Romans 14:11 “For it has been written: "I live, says the Lord, that every knee will bow to Me, and every tongue will confess to God.“” - Berean Literal Bible Isaiah 25:6 “On this mountain the LORD of Hosts will prepare a banquet for all the peoples , a feast of aged wine, of choice meat, of finely aged wine.” - Berean Study Bible ‘Christian’, if you believe in everlasting condemnation, how can you reconcile your non-sense doctrine with Scripture here? The Bible is full of Christ’s love… He IS love. These two verses above are promises of Christ and He will see to that, that they will be fulfilled. Joshua 21:25 “Not one of all the LORD's good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled.” - New International Version Ezekiel 12:28 “"Therefore say to them, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: None of my words will be delayed any longer; whatever I say will be fulfilled, declares the Sovereign LORD.'“” - New International Version Besides, did John not explicitly say that Jesus came to save the world? John 3:17 “For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” - New International Version Please take note that many Bibles have the “might” added in this verse, to instil doubt with the subjunctive mood erroneously attached. “Might save” is a slap in God’s Face. God is a purposeful God. This is a grave error at the hand of the scribe, with a grave consequence… and you know what grave means, don’t you? Grave means suffering. God did not incorporate the parable of the rich man and Lazarus without purpose. Luke 16:24 “And having cried out, he said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, that he might dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am suffering in this flame.‘” - Berean Literal Bible Do you deep in your heart want others to be condemned forever? How many of the verses that proclaim everlasting life for all do you ignore ? Fear that you were taken for a ride all along… that the implications are too much, losing face to all your followers? Does this doctrine of eternal damnation of yours reflect any love in your heart at all? Are you a product of the “Canons of Dort” and the “Heidelberg Catechism”? 1 Corinthians 16:14 “Let all things of you be done in love.” - Berean Study Bible Are you searching for the Truth at all? Everlasting damnation is a doctrine of hatred, not of love. Does it ever occur to you that all the division in the church, all the backstabbing, all the conflict and hatred among its very members is a direct outflow of this destructive dogma… a dogma where the Spirit of Christ is not to be experienced at all? Where is unity? May God open your eyes.
