Salvation is of the Jews
What then? nothwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. Philippians 1:18-20
The Spirit of Jesus Christ has a specific purpose in the salvation of the house of God; Jesus' priesthood confirms the need for a 'jewish sanctification' to obtain to the first resurrection of the dead. Jesus of Nazareth's order of ministry is that of Melchisedec and it is of the tribe of Juda. Both, the order of Melchisedec and the tribe of Juda, give understanding to Jesus' ministry.
Gentile salvation and sanctification is knitt together with Israel's salvation and sanctification. Together, they reveal God's mercies here on earth. Jesus ministers in a manner as to save the whole house of Israel; the nation of Israel is called to minister blessing to gentile nations. Gentile hope is to be set upon an 'agreed jewish priest ministration', that is, the tribe of Levi submitted to the Lion of the tribe Juda as to help administrate inheritance to gentile nations.
Blessing and inheritance is to be understood among gentile churches as to agree with Jesus' heart to save the jewish people.
