| | Chosen people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Judaism, chosenness is the belief that the Jews are a people chosen to be in a covenant with God. | | | Korea, Moon says, was "chosen by God to be the birthplace of the leading figure of the age",[1] and to be the birthplace of "Heavenly Tradition", ushering in God's kingdom. | | | In this view, the Jews' chosenness found its ultimate fulfillment through the message of Jesus; Jews who remain non-Christian are no longer considered to be chosen, since they reject Jesus as the Messiah and son of God. |

| | Later, they were the people who wrested ecclesiastical control from the papacy, re-established the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of Christ, and gave the Holy Scriptures to the various peoples in their native languages. | | | The beginning of the chosen people of God is recorded in Genesis 12:1-3. | | | When we realize that the holy people, the chosen people of God, the Israelites, are the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic race, we see the very sovereignty of their various countries being threatened by the Jew-controlled "new world order," then we must accept that the end of time is very near, even at the door. |
