  • Deut 7:6-8 : 6 For you are a holy people unto the LORD your God: the LORD your God has chosen you to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. 7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all people: 8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
  • Deut 26:18-19 : 18 And the LORD has declared you this day to be his special people, as he has promised you, and that you should keep all his commandments; 19 And to make you high above all nations which he has made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that you may be a holy people to the LORD your God, as he has spoken.
  • 1 Sam 12:22 : 22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it has pleased the LORD to make you his people.
  • Jer 31:31-34 : 31 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: 32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they broke, although I was a husband to them, says the LORD: 33 But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says the LORD, I will put my law within them, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
  • Zech 13:9 : 9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them as gold is tested; they shall call on my name, and I will hear them; I will say, It is my people, and they shall say, The LORD is my God.
  • Rom 9:4-6 : 4 Who are Israelites; to whom belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises; 5 Of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, God blessed forever.

  • Rom 11:1-9 : 1 I say then, Has God cast away His people? Certainly not. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah? how he pleads with God against Israel, saying, 3 Lord, they have killed Your prophets, and torn down Your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. 4 But what is God's answer to him? I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. 5 Even so then, at this present time there is also a remnant according to the election of grace. 6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work. 7 What then? Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were blinded. 8 According as it is written, God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see and ears that they should not hear, to this day. 9 And David says, Let their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a recompense to them. 10 Let their eyes be darkened so that they do not see, and bend their backs always. 11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy. 12 Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness?
  • 1 Pet 2:9 : 9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
