Heaven is the kingdom and there the Jews will go and reign with God over heaven and earth. (1 Peter 1:3-4)So that the prophecy might be fulfilled which God said to Abraham, for God promised him that his seed would reign over the whole earth. These Jews will be called the " chosen ones " they will lose their bodies and live as spirits in heaven.Some say the kingdom will be here on this earth

It says Israel, not Jews only and from all tribes and peoples and languages in white robes.Heaven is the kingdom and there the Jews will go and reign with God over heaven and earth. (1 Peter 1:3-4)So that the prophecy might be fulfilled which God said to Abraham, for God promised him that his seed would reign over the whole earth. These Jews will be called the " chosen ones " they will lose their bodies and live as spirits in heaven.
And heaven, of course, is not of this world but in the world of God.
But the Gentiles will get the earth and will live there forever.(Psalm 37:29) But they will have a body, this body will be the same as Adam's body before he sinned, so immortal. These Gentiles who consist of all the nations of the world are called the "righteous ones".

Yes, Ishmael and his children were made to a great people by God and they were blessed. But by the seed Abraham I mean the children of Jacob, the 12 tribes of Israel. And only the chosen children of the 12 tribes of Israel will enter heaven, for so it is written.What do you know about the sons of Ishmael? They are also descendants of Abraham
Did not God say to Hajar that it is a great nation
In Jewish belief do you think Muslims will go to heaven
Mohammadiyim

Heaven , Pleroma is a complex notion, there divisions of after-Iife that one needed to 'graduate' to enter. E.g . " 2I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a man was caught up to the third heaven".. The third?, how many other heavens? This is good hint that we just do not know it by literally reading the Bible that was purged for consumer.Yes, Ishmael and his children were made to a great people by God and they were blessed.

Before the Israelites called themselves "Jews" (at least some), they all called themselves "Hebrews".a "Jew" means of tribe of tribe of Judah.
Hebrews is genetic name, Israelites is spiritual name that means 'those who see G-d', it is not genetic.Before the Israelites called themselves "Jews" (at least some), they all called themselves "Hebrews".
The term "Jew" itself originated much later.
But where does the term "Jew" come from?
After the settlement of Canaan, the tribes of Benjamin, Judah, and Levi founded the Southern Kingdom of Judah, the other nine tribes formed the northern kingdom of Israel.
The northern kingdom was later conquered and wiped out by the Assyrians, but the southern kingdom remained. And after that time Judah became the province Judea, and they others started calling the inhabitants "Jews", which means "Worshippers of God".
The term "Jew" was therefore only a term for the living Hebrews in Judah. So it doesn't matter if I say Hebrew, Jew or Israelite, all are the same. The 12 tribes of Israel have the same Father and the same faith. They are Hebrews / Israelites / Jews.
