The people were required to do physical things to please God then.
They were the only people that had the blessings of God.
Gentiles were called "Pagans and Dogs"
Now that the Gentiles have been given the hope of life
by faith.
Just as the people of Israel had.
Unbelief.
And unbelief brings judgement and condemnation.
I didn't say that. The Word of God says that.
Hebrews 11:6
Without faith. It is impossible to please God.
