That is talking about ethnic Jews at the end of time.According to Jeremiah's prophesy concerning the New Covenant to come this cant happen.
Jer 31:
31 “Behold, days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
32 not like the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was a husband to them,” declares the LORD.
33 “But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the LORD, “I will put My law within them and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
34 “They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares the LORD, “for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
Jer 32:
38 “They shall be My people, and I will be their God;
39 and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for the good of their children after them.
40 “I will make an everlasting covenant with them that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me.
41 “I will rejoice over them to do them good and will faithfully plant them in this land with all My heart and with all My soul.
The Fear of Him indwelling us seals us against apostasy as promised.
This is consistent with the seven aspects of the Holy Spirit being mentioned in Isaiah 11 indwelling us - including the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord - when we are born again.
Paul says: "being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." Philp1:6If someone decides to leave the faith we’re they a follower of Jesus in the first place?
Those who are born again NOW do.So then Messianic Jews do not have the Holy Spirit within?
I hate it when that happens ....Mmmm... I replied but my post disappeared...
Except Paul calls our receiving the Spirit an "ernest" or a down payment of what is to come. Hebrews 6 talks about those who have tasted the powers of the age to come.The Apostles were somewhat surprised that the Gentiles were receiving the indwelling Holy Spirit as well as them.
They would have been well aware of these verses as they confirmed the much awaited the permanent indwelling presence promised in the Covenant to come.
All believers in the New Covenant era have received this as promised.
This nullifies the suggestion that something greater is yet to come.
that is classic replacement theology. Gentiles get included; but the physical promise to the physical descendants of Jacob still stands and will be fulfilled.Many Christians today miss the fact that the Promises concerning the Land were given to Abraham long before Moses and we inherit these promises through Christ the 'seed'. This is confirmed in Galatians 3.
If someone decides to leave the faith we’re they a follower of Jesus in the first place?
Exactly as Jeremiah prophesied. They do now. So the suggestion that this promise is not yet fulfilled is not correct. This is why I hold to his chosen having their salvation eternally sealed by the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord. Exactly as Jeremiah correctly predicted.Those who are born again NOW do.
"They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us." 1John 2:19
