Isaiah 62:11-12 Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
Only those that have been redeemed through the blood of the Lamb can be referred to as the redeemed of the Lord; these are also the ones to receive His reward which is Salvation. Only those that call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved.
Matt 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
Isaiah 65:14-15 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:
The rebellious people that think they are holier than everyone else will be destroyed, just as their their fathers before them were (Isa 65: 2-7).
The ones that are chosen are the followers of Christ, who are called the redeemed of the Lord.
Jesus has redeemed the faithful from the curse of the old law (Gal 3:13).
Those who are deceived believe they are justified by the old law, but they are in fact fallen from grace, and can never partake in the promise of eternal life only available through Christ. The promise was made to Abraham and his seed, which is Christ ( Gal 5:4; Gal 3:16).
John 12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
John 3:1-3 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
The followers of Christ that worship Him in Spirit and in Truth are the redeemed of the Lord, they are also called the sons of God. This name is reserved for those that have been Baptized with the Holy Spirit; this title was never given to the house of Israel, or the tribe of Judah that lived according to the flesh.
Romans 8:13-14 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
The Inheritance Of God Is Given Unto Others
Christ, in no uncertain terms exposed the religion of the false house of Judah for what it really was. Those who claimed to be of this house, including the chief priests and elders were full of hypocrisy and iniquity. The leaders and teachers of this sect did not follow the law of Moses, they were all about the traditions of men. Jesus declared that these imposters were of their father the devil, who was a murderer from the beginning (John 8:44).
Matt 21:37-41 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
The chief priests, scribes and elders of the people who were of the synagogue of Satan, consulted and conspired to kill Jesus. They were the children of their fathers which had killed the prophets that came before Him. The same wicked spiritual force at one time had a hold of Paul, who persecuted and destroyed beyond measure the church of Christ, more so that his peers. Paul points out the fact that the religion of the Jews, had simply become a religion based upon the traditions of men (Math 26:4; Gal 1:11-14; Math 23:31).
Matt 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Christ prophesized that this people and their religion of traditions would never produce any good fruit, and would be utterly destroyed; the comparison is made to the barren fig tree.
Mark 11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever.
Christ is the vine and we are the branches, without Him we can produce nothing (John 15:1-17).
Upon the return of Christ a complete and permanent destruction of these wicked defilers of everything that is good, truthful and holy will occur, and Jerusalem will be holy (Joel 3:14-17).
Matt 7:18-20 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Peace. Isaiah 62:12( another translation) And they shall call them, the holy people, the redeemed of the Lord. But thou shalt be called: A city sought after, and not forsaken.

Rev. 22:12 (goes like this) Behold I come quickly; and my REWARD is with me to RENDER to every man according to his works.
” SOUP THERE IT IS”-” eat more GMO ” ” Get Me a roOm” John 14:2
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
1 John 1:1-2 (KJV)
