_________Did she believe and call upon the Name of the Lord?
Oooops. Looks like some Jews in Ezekiel 39 didn't call on the Name of the Lord as told by Jesus and Paul.
Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass [That] whoever calls on the name of the LORD Shall be Saved.'
Ezkeiel 39:12 "For seven months the house of Israel will be burying Them, in order to Cleanse/purify the land. 13 "Indeed all the people of the land will be burying, and they will gain renown for it on the day that I am glorified," says the 'Adonay Y@hovih.
Physical salvation inside the city, Zion, Joel 2:1,2; 2:18 "jealous for his land,and pity his people"-Acts 2:22 "Ye men of Israel."
Acts 8:30? No.
"I am sure I can find a version of 'the' bible, with a verse outside of Romans-Philemon, that fits/verifies my doctrine"=littlelambofJesus" Here are a few!:
A murder indictment/fear, guilt-
"Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:...Acts 2:23
"Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Acts 2:36
"And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses." Acts 3:15
"The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree." Acts 5:30
"Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:.."
Acts 7:52
vs. glorying in the cross-
"But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;..." 1 Cor. 2:23
"But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world." Galatians 6:14
How about a little more fear, guilt, as a motivator, since all scripture is written directly to you, right from Ezekiel:
"Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul." 3:17-21
How are "we doing" so far?
In Christ,
