ISRAEL - LIGHT OF THE WORLD

The word of God is like the light, one that highlights the path of life (Ps 118.105,130 ; 2 Pet 1.13).  Believers are called the sons of light and the light of the world  (2 Cor 4.6, Eph 5.8, 1 Thess 5.5).

God has commanded that the sons of light shone  (Is 60.1-3, Matt 5.16).  He defined Israel to be a Kingdom of priests, to give the light of truth surrounding peoples (Ex 19.5-6, Is 42.6, Ps 96.3).

 

The temple was a place of worship for all individuals and peoples, where they had come in for some days (Is 56.3-7 , 1 King 8.41-43).

When Israel was at the height of his fame, during the reign of Solomon, came to Israel to learn wisdom and knowledge of the representatives of the all people (1 King 8.41-43, 10.23-25).

 

From Abraham to Christ of all the surrounding nations have received the knowledge of the true God and worshipping Him from the Israelis.

Spiritual Israel in the New Testament is from God the same purpose: to BE SPIRITUAL TEACHERS, "the pillar and the truth" (1 Tim 3.15) and preach the Gospel to the entire world  (1 Pet 2.9; Matt 24.14, 28.18-20).
