1. God Knows the Identity of All the Tribes
Amos 9:9 – “I will command and shake the house of Israel among all the nations… not a pebble shall fall to the earth.”
Ezekiel 37:21–22 – “I will take the people of Israel from the nations… and make them one nation in the land.”
The so-called “lost tribes” are never lost to God. He has preserved them.

2. The Jews Today Represent Israel
Luke 2:36 – “Anna… from the tribe of Asher.”
James 1:1 – “To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion…”
Jews today include descendants of Judah, Benjamin, Levi—and others. God knows who belongs to each tribe.

3. The Jewish People Are Still Beloved
Romans 11:28–29 – “They are beloved for the sake of their forefathers… the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable.”
Genesis 12:3 – “I will bless those who bless you…”
Romans 3:1–2 – “What advantage has the Jew?… Much in every way.”

4. The Gospel Honors Israel’s Role
Romans 1:16 – “The gospel… to the Jew first.”
John 4:22 – “Salvation is from the Jews.”
The gospel is God’s mercy extended to all, beginning with His chosen people. They are not cast off.
