What does Paul's epistles call the Gentiles God is now calling out for His name?
God is now calling out Gentiles as a people for His name. Paul's epistles identify this company as the church which is His body, the Body of Christ. This calling is personal, not national, and is distinct from Israel's national opportunity, though Jews still have personal salvation.
Les explains that God is now calling out Gentiles as a people for His name, and Paul's epistles refer to this company as the church which is His body, the Body of Christ. He contrasts this with Israel: a Jew still has every opportunity for salvation that we do, but it is on a personal basis, not a national one. Les also uses the analogy of a fetus in the womb, where cells are placed exactly right and the process stops at completion, then delivery. In the same way, the church is being formed as God adds individual believers from all around the world—Chinese, Japanese, Russians, Germans, French, British, Americans, Canadians, and whatever.
