Who are considered the true Israel?

Answered in 1 source

The true Israel refers to the spiritual remnant of God's people who have faith in Christ.

The concept of true Israel is often articulated by the Apostle Paul, emphasizing that not all ethnic Israelites are the true people of God. In Romans 9:6, he states that 'not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.' The true Israel encompasses those, like Simeon, who are justified by faith and awaiting the fulfillment of God’s promises. This remnant includes both Jews and Gentiles who respond to the gospel in faith, thus forming a spiritual lineage connected through their trust in Christ as the Messiah. The inclusivity of God's redemptive plan reveals the depths of His grace, extending His salvation to all who believe.
