What makes someone a true Jew in a spiritual sense?

Answered in 1 source

A true Jew is one who has faith in Christ and is transformed by the Spirit, receiving a new heart.

In a spiritual context, being a true Jew is defined not by ethnic lineage but by being transformed through God's grace. Paul conveys this in Romans 2:29, that true circumcision is of the heart, through the Spirit, and not just about external adherence to the law. A believer’s standing comes from their faith in Christ, resulting in a changed life. This spiritual lineage reflects a deep relationship and commitment to God, demonstrating that spiritual identity is rooted in faith and inward change, aligning one’s life with the Gospel’s transformative power.
