How Are Jewish People Saved?
Q. I am confused about the Jewish people and salvation. How do God’s chosen people become saved? Is it only by faith in the life and work of our Savior Jesus Christ? Thanks for your work too!
A. Yes. From earliest times it was understood that a Messiah would come to redeem God’s people, and Jesus made no bones about the fact that He was sent to save the lost of Israel.(Matt. 15:24) The fact that He would facilitate the redemption of the Gentiles too was also understood (See Isaiah 49:6 for example). He made it abundantly clear that He’s the only way to reconciliation with God. “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6 )
