Jesus is returning (appearing in the sky, Mt 24:30) at the end of time (1 Th 4:16-17) for the resurrection of the sheep and the goats; i.e., all mankind, and the catching up of the saints in the clouds to meet Jesus in the air.
This place is toast
And 1 THESS 4:16 and 17 does not say any thing about SHEEP and GOATS as that passage is in Matt 25:31-46 , whichActs 1:10-11
"And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, then behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them, and they said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”"
Same way. Christ is returning to Jerusalem.
And 1 THESS 4:16 and 17 does not say any thing about SHEEP and GOATS as that passage is in Matt 25:31-46 , which
deals with Israel .

Of course not. He wants to reunite the House of Israel, all 12 tribes, not just the Jewish one, back under the original Abrahamic faith. All but a couple of chapters of the entire gentile bible are about this one family. When He said all nations He meant it.that God is not done with the Jews.
God's not done with anyone, but they have to accept the Messiah.It's really something the lies that people believe today. Like thinking God is done with the Jewish people.
It is, and the idea that a person can be saved apart from Jesus Christ under the Old Covenant after the establishment of the New Covenant is antithetical to Christianity.It is often assumed that the idea that God still has remaining promises for Israel is only an idea of Dispensationalism from the 1800s
Well, Scripture does present the fulfillment of the land promise--possession by Joshua (Josh 23:14, 21:43) and occupation under Solomon (1 Kgs 4:21, 24-25).It's really something the lies that people believe today. Like thinking God is done with the Jewish people. It is often assumed that the idea that God still has remaining promises for Israel is only an idea of Dispensationalism from the 1800s, when the reality is that Christians all throughout history have recognized that God is not done with the Jews. The ignorance is rampant.
What has any of this got to do with your question, "how can a Jewish person be saved and remain Jewish?"And 1 THESS 4:16 and 17 does not say any thing about SHEEP and GOATS as that passage is in Matt 25:31-46 , which
deals with Israel .
In order to have an answer to a question which is at all relevant, one must first define terms. What is "Jewish?"HOW CAN A JEWISH PERSON BE SAVED AND REMAIN JEWISH ??
My first answer would be: a physical descendant of Jacob, loosely termed.In order to have an answer to a question which is at all relevant, one must first define terms. What is "Jewish?"
I ask as a man who was born entirely of Jewish ancestry so far as is known, who is now of Christ. When the answer mattered to me, in synagogue and Jewish private schooling, the question "What is a Jew?" was asked a number of times, by rabbis, teachers, and students, and never was a single simple coherent definition permitted, by the rabbis and teachers. We had a few different ones each time, but the rabbis and teachers never allowed any of them to remain.
In John 4:22, Jesus said that salvation is of the Jews, so there is nothing about someone being saved that means that they need to cease to be a Jew. Paul never stopped identifying as a Jew (Acts 21:39, 22:3).AND is there a verse that says a JEW an be SAVED and remain a JEW ?
And VIS-VIS ?

And in 2 Cor 3:13-14 why Israel was set asideJesus was a Rabbi, not a Reverend. His name is Yeshua, not Jesus. He elevated the Law; He did not discard it. All the Apostles were Jewish. All His first followers were Jewish. The whole of the OT testifies about Yeshua, which is a book written about Israel.
Asking if a Jew can be saved is like asking if a fish can swim.
