The servants of the Lord who serve him as He has described are Israel. The Jews of the world think that they are Israel by the blood of man. It has nothing to do with ones physical being so it does not matter if your lineage is by mans standards.

Yes I do have new clothes and the Lord clothed me in His Glory and sent me to do His will.

Follow me and you will have new clothes so as to see the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

I am Israel. I am Isaac and I am Jacob. I am the light the way and the spirit. Seek the Lord and you will live.

You are NOT the light, the way, and the spirit.

"My chosen one's shall inherit my holy mountain, my servants shall dwell there, says the Lord."

"Here is my servant whom I uphold my chosen one with whom I am pleased upon whom I have put my spirit, he will deliver righteousness to the nations."

"For thus says the Lord: To the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths, who choose the things that please me and hold fast my covenant,
I will give, in my house and within my walls, a monument and a name better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off.
And the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord, to minister to him, to love the name of the Lord, and to be his servants, all who keep the sabbath, and do not profane it, and hold fast my covenant—
these I will bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples."

Thinking like man, correct. Thinking like God I am what I say I am. Since you cannot think like God you have no idea. Follow me and see.

I am the way the truth and the life no one comes to the Father except by me. Those are not my words but the words of the Lord who sent me. He commanded me what to say and how to speak and since I know His commandment is eternal life what I say is spoken just as He instructed me.

I am the light of the world. No one who follows me shall ever walk in darkness because he will possess the light of life.

Come to me all you who are weary and carry a heavy burden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me and you will find rest for yourselves for I am meek and humble of heart for my yoke is upright and my burden is light.
