Jesus would have been a little footnote in our news casts when he would be alive.

Remember, Jesus wasn't a huge figure to everyone outside of Israel when he was alive.

Remember, Jesus wasn't a huge figure to everyone outside of Israel when he was alive.

that's because, as he stated, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel." (Mat 15:24)  The plan from the beginning was to preach the gospel to the Jews, have the majority of Jews reject it, thus opening up the Gentiles for salvation.

Likewise, Joseph wasn't a huge figure to the Gentiles until he was rejected by his brothers, after which he saved the Gentiles and then the Jews.  If Joseph's brothers had never rejected Joseph, then both the Gentiles and the Israelites would both have died.


I agree with that.
