The Identifying trait of the True Israel of God, the foreknown People of God, which is also Israel, is not ethnicity or genealogy according to the flesh,
but Faith by the promise and power of God[ See
Jn 1:13] She is not of the flesh, but of the Spirit.
The Nation of Israel was not a Nation made up of flesh, but is a Spiritual Nation made up of all those born of the Seed Christ, who is Abraham's seed to whom the Promises were made [
Gal 3:16], who is the one and only True Israel, God Prevails ! or He shall be a Prince of God !
Acts 5:31.
The Nation here in
Ps 33:12
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people
whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
This is not National Israel according to the flesh, that physical nation formed at Sinai, but this is a Spiritual Nation formed out of the Grace of the everlasting Covenant and it's blood. It's the Same Nation as described here in
1 Pet 2:9
9But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
And who but those Chosen in Christ before the foundation as per
Eph 1:4, are God's Inheritance as per
Eph 1:18
18The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling,
and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
It is the Seed Christ that makes anyone of Israel; merely being of the physical descendants of the Fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, did not make one the True Israel of God [
Rom 9:6-8], but no matter what ethnicity, if we belong to Christ [The Seed
Gal 3:16] then are we in Israel that matters, for its only through Him that we are made that Holy Nation !
Eph 1:4
4According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should
be holy and without blame before him in love:
