THE MARKS OF [ISRAYL]

Excerpt from the Abrahamic Covenant by E. Raymond Capt

How strange it is, that with all the definite and positive assurances in the Word of [Yahweh] as to [Israyl]'s continuance for ever as a Nation, there/has never been any continued or persistent effort on the part of genuine Bible believers to find them. That they have been content to let them fade away and vanish into nothingness is surely a deep reproach on all true [believers]. There is, however, one probable explanation. It was [YAHWEH'S] WILL AND PURPOSE TO HIDE THEM. While the Jews (some of whom are only a part of the House of Judah) occupied the stage, and even called themselves "[Israyl]", [Yahweh] could work unhindered with and in "Lost [Israyl]", till he had finished his predetermined work and without them knowing they were the people of the Book. Only as [Israyl]'s time of punishment had run out with the whole of [Yahweh]'s purposes at the point of complete fulfillment, was the identity of [Israyl] to become known. However, it is a matter of inspired record that [Yahweh] placed "marks" on His people [Israyl]. During the Christian dispensation, Lost [Israyl] was to possess these marks of identification. So then, if we can discover the nations and people with [Israyl]'s marks, we have found the people whom [Yahweh] chose to serve Him to be a channel of blessing to all mankind. The [Yahweh]-given marks are very many, and while the following list is not exhaustive, they constitute a chain of evidence utterly impossible to ignore. One race, and one race alone, has all these marks. Nations within this race may have only a portion of them, but the race as a whole has them all. With a few exceptions, Joseph (the birthright nation) was the recipient of them all. By inheritance, his two sons, Ephraim (Great Britain) and Manasseh (U.S.A.) will be found possessing them all. While [Israyl]ites remain in other countries. America is the home of millions of all the thirteen tribes (one out of many) and thus is representative of the whole House of Jacob. We are bound by [Israyl]'s responsibilities, fulfilling [Israyl]'s destiny. The MARKS are on us everywhere; in our NAME; in our SABBATH; in our INSTITUTIONS; in our PHILANTHROPY; in our COMMERCE; in our WEALTH; in our MINES; in our AGRICULTURE; in our CHURCHES; in our MISSIONARY ENTERPRISES; in our ARMED FORCES; in our POSSESSION OF THE BIBLE; - all BIRTHMARKS, which neither time, nor the ages, nor even our sin can wipe out.
