JACOB IS REBORN ISRAEL

Jacob is still used to this day by them in the faith, and them not in the faith, so to is Israel. it is not for any mere reason, for there is much in a name, and much to GOD of THE WORD. We have many renamed in the scriptures, and this a sign of the re-birthing, the old man put off and the new is put on. This is Jacob’s honor, that he has the name of Israel THE LORD's Firstborn, that is reborn. So it is as a model to them that would come after..

Why you to are called Israel HIS firstborn, if it is that you are HIS, that you are reborn, that you are proven to have suffered for it in the flesh, to have held throughout trials and tribulations.
