>>18160715>So why create the debate of who is God's chosen people?it is an identity thing. people trying to "own" (cain literally means "acquisition") the chosenite status while pretending it's God's doing. this was the one of the points of Christ, to open it to everyone so no one could claim it, except for God - this is why "salvation" is by "grace" - you can't earn it, it's only freely given. when you make it based on anything but grace, you create these parasitic identity structure which make it easy to enslave people
catholocism is an example of turning Christ back into exactly what Christ put an end to. "you must go through us to get to Christ".
