Abraham never received the land of Canaan which God promised to give him for an everlasting possession.He lived among the Canaanites who he looked upon as the rightfull owners of the land at the time.He bought a small.piece of land containing a cave and paid for it in silver for a burial place.It was not given to him.He was buried there expecting someday to receive the land that was promised to him.You must be imagining something. I'm not arguing or rejecting this verse. Do you really want to have a conversation over nothing?
This, however, is off, in my opinion. You said:
"The end time prophecies covering the beast are being fulfilled. The false prophet will probably arrive in the promised land next year after Trump is reelected."
I think the Antichrist will rise 1st by taking 10 European states and joining them into a confederation under his control. Then, the False Prophet, managing two large jurisdictions, will throw his religious support behind the Antichristian Empire.
You also said this (concerning the Jews):
"They are still misrepresenting God's kingdom.
They claim it is theirs.They claim it was promised to them for an everlasting possession..They will be removed when Jesus comes.
Mathew 13:41
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth."
This is a matter of debate--it isn't settled among Christians. You claim that anybody who rejects your *interpretation* of God's word is opposing God. That is wrong-headed and sectarian in spirit. There are good Christians on both sides of this.
I believe God promised Abraham a nation forever--as long as the age of mortal man continues. Whether or not there will be a future age in which Israel obtains its national promise again is open for debate. Amillennialists think it's all over when Christ comes--the Jews won't get a 2nd chance. Premills like myself believe the Jews will get a 2nd chance *after* Christ returns in the Millennial Age.
Why fight over it? Good Christians on both sides....
But I think I may have misunderstood your motive initially when you said this:
"You do err not knowing the word of God.
Luke 10:16
Whoever listens to you listens to me; whoever rejects you rejects me; but whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
I think you were trying to point out that since the Jews rejected Jesus they rejected God. But my argument was that though the early generation of Jews rejected Jesus, fully conscious of who he was, future generation of Jews would be rejecting something that don't fully understand. We can't put all Jews in the same barrel just because an early generation of Jews consciously turned against their Messiah!
But you passed judgment on Jews by indicating that there is no more hope for their nation, and then passed judgment on me, as well, saying that "I err." Well, I don't care if you think I'm in error. It just bothers me that you support your judgment with the same spirit by which you consign the Jewish People to the dustbin in history.
That may or may not be true that Israel, as a nation, can not be restored. But just writing them all off en mass as a people in the Middle East is not a standard I think anybody can use for any nation. Is that what you're doing?
Galatians 3:16
The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say “and to seeds,” meaning many people, but “and to your seed,” meaning one person, who is Christ.
If any of the Jews In Israel are in Christ,then they are Abraham's seed and heirs to the kingdom.
