So the dude who wrote about 1/2 the books of the New Testament said his apostolic ministry was to the Gentiles...Non Jews. If the Bible was entirely a "Jewish book" we wouldn't be here on this forum. "But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ".(Eph 2:13)
Hi UntoHim.
I believe when Harold said the bible is a Jewish book, he simply meant the bible was written by Jews (Inspired by the Holy Spirit of course). It certainly wasn't and isn't written solely to the Jews. In fact most Jews today follow the Talmud (a collection of tractates, commentaries and high level religious discussions on the meaning of various scriptures) more than they read and follow the Torah.

From cover to cover, the Bible is a book about Creation, the Fall, Redemption and Restoration.
Indeed! Indeed! So true! So true!!

God is not through with mankind yet. (and he ain't done with the Jews yet either) In fact...He's just getting warmed up!
How I thank God He began a good work, in fact a most excellent work in me and in His people and He is going to finish it! (Philippians 1:6)
being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Quote:
Abraham was the first man chosen by God, and called out by God, to initiate a race of redeemed and restored people. God sent his only begotten Son to redeem and to restore - BOTH the Jews and the gentiles.
What a great reminder! THANK YOU!
