As being grafted into Israel we are of the promise to Abraham being his Spiritual children. So we are spiritual Israel.
Rom 9:24 even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles?
Rom 9:25 As indeed he says in Hosea, “Those who were not my people I will call 'my people,' and her who was not beloved I will call 'beloved.'”It is not the flesh that are God's children but those of the Spirit that are God's children.
The Ten Commandments were made spiritual by Jesus. The Old Testament was physical but the New Testament is Spiritual.
Mat 5:27 “You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.'
The Old Testament was physical; to commit adultery one had to have relations with the woman BUT now in the New Testament If we just look at a woman (spiritual) then we have commit adultery by breaking that commandment and have sinned for trangression of the law is sin, 1John 3:4.Mat 5:28 But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
I have caught my flesh starting to lust and imediately I turn my head and repent. Now I can through the Spirit admire the beauty of a woman without lusting.
IHN&L,
Ken
