The Kingdom does not recognize separation — only redemption.

Not one gate is named after Rome, America, the nations, or “Gentile Christianity.”
Every gate bears the name of a tribe of Israel.
So the question becomes:
Which gate do Gentiles enter through while claiming they have nothing to do with Israel?
Are they flying over the wall?
Scripture does not teach separation. It teaches redemption and union.
👉👉 Book of Ephesians 2:12 KJV
“That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise...”
Not aliens from heaven.
Not aliens from the church.
Aliens from Israel.
👉👉 Ephesians 2:13 KJV
“But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.”
👉👉 Ephesians 2:19 KJV
“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God.”
Fellow citizens with whom?
Israel.
Citizenship means joining an existing nation or commonwealth.
Paul never says Israel was abolished. He says Gentiles were brought near and made fellow citizens.
👉👉 Book of Romans 11:17 KJV
“And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them...”
Graffed into Israel, not planted as a separate tree.
The New Jerusalem does not have a “Gentile entrance.”
It has 12 gates, and every single one bears the name of a tribe of Israel.
The wall is not there to keep Gentiles out.
It is a testimony that God keeps His covenants.
Enter through grace.
Stand with Israel.
Reign with Christ.
