Paul explains that all who are "in Christ" are members of the true Israel of God and are counted as the true sons of Abraham. That is, in the Christian Messiah , circumcision, Israel, and the seed of Abraham take on a new, spiritual meaning.circumcision "real circumcision is a matter of the heart, spiritual and not literal" (Rom. 2:29, RSV). In other words, one is a new creation "if one abides with the christian messiah" and circumcision is done away with - not even needed for one born a Jew.
NOW PRAY TELL....how Paul has the audacity to change G-d's commandments and words? In the passages of Ezekiel (chapters 40-48) speaks of the rebuilding of the 3rd Temple and the return of animal sacrifices. Pay attention to Ezekiel 44:9.So said the Lord God: No alien of uncircumcised heart or of uncircumcised flesh may enter My Sanctuary, of any alien who is in the midst of the Children of Israel.
So dear Jew - if you have been raised in a secular family and have not had a bris - it is time for you to have one! As it is one of the 613 commandments

248 Limbs in Human Body Parallel the 248 Positive Commandments
Each limb announces, "Observe a commandment with me, so that I will live long."
pg 115 The Torah Anthology / Yalukt ME'AM LO'EZ
THE 248 LIMBS
30 bones in the sole of the foot, six in each toe = 60 ; total 60
10 in each ankle = 20 ; total 80
2 in the lower part of the each leg = 4 ; total 84
5 in each knee = 10 ; total 94
1 in each thigh = 2 ; total 96
6 in the hips ; total 102
11 pair of ribs = 22 ; total 124
30 in each hand, six in each finger = 60 ; total 184
2 in each forearm = 4 ; total 188
2 in each elbow = 4 ; total 192
1 in each upper arm = 2 ; total 194
4 in each shoulder = 8 ; total 202
18 vertebra in the spine ; total 220
9 bones in the head ; total 229
8 in the neck ; total 237
6 in the chest ; total 243
5 at the orfices ; total 248
There are also 365 prohibitions in the Torah, paralleling the 365 days of the solar year. Each day, from sunrise to sunset, a heavenly voice announces to man, "Take it upon yourself not to sin on this day, so as not to tilt the world to the side of liability. The world is in a state of equilibrium between good and evil. Even a minor sin can upset this equilibrium toward the side of evil and cause great damage.
