I believe there is one God, regardless of what people call him.
I believe God is open to all people who seek him. I don't think God "picks and chooses" among people. I think He is open to all people who strive to seek out their "higher power".
Do you think God is only available to certain people?

Do you believe that he spent as much effort to reach the Israelites as he did the Ammorites?
Actually for the Ultra Orthodox, Haredi, Chassidic there is. They don't believe in the current State of Israel since it was not created my G-d. But they believe in the Land of Israel (which is basically in the same place, but just seen in a different view) and are waiting for G-d to put his stamp of approval on it plus a few other things.

I think the OT is focused on the Israelites - before and after they became Israelites. The Bible does not tell me what, if anything, God did for any group of people in that area at the time - save a few isolated cases where God influenced the other people. Once Jesus came he took in the Gentiles with the Jews of that area. Whatever divisions there were in the OT, they were eliminated by Jesus.
There is no Spiritual Israel...There is only Israel...The Chosen ones...Those who believe on G-d join with them...Are grafted in...
