I think you are right on, with your comments, but, if I may correct you about those of Israel that turned away from God, as they were journeying through the wilderness did not lose their inheritance of eternal heaven, but they did lose their fellowship with God until they bring themselves to repent.
The natural man, according to 1 Cor 2:14, will not repent of breaking one of God's spiritual laws, because he cannot discern them, thinking them to be foolishness.
When a born again child of God commits a sin they separate themselves from God's fellowship, temporary, until they repent, because God will not fellowship sin.
All of the elect that are of the household of Jacob/Israel will inherit eternal heaven, even though most of them turned away from God, except the remnant of the household of Jacob, who were revealed the righteousness of God, by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Zeph 3:12-13)
“I think you are right on, with your comments, but, if I may correct you about
those of Israel that turned away from God, as they were journeying through the wilderness did not lose their inheritance of eternal heaven, but they did lose their fellowship with God until they bring themselves to repent.”
They were never offered heaven they were offered the earthly land of Israel the land promised to Abraham’s offspring. this is their inheritance and where it came from
“And the LORD said unto
Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and
look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. And I will make thy seed as the
dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. Arise,
walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.”
Genesis 13:14-17
Israel was given this land and then given a law for that land and eternal covenant based upon what is written in Moses book of the law
“
Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
a blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
and a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God,
but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath
brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
For
ye shall pass over Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God giveth you, and ye shall possess it, and dwell therein.
And ye shall observe to
do all the statutes and judgments which I set before you this day.”
Deuteronomy 11:26-29, 31-32 KJV
that is isreals covenant conditions and their inheritance thier “ promised land “ and this is what God said would happen
“And the LORD said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and
this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of the strangers of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
Then
my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us?
And
I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods. Now therefore write ye this song for you, and
teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
For
when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and
waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.
And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for
I know their imagination which they go about, even now, before I have brought them into the land which I sware.”
Deuteronomy 31:16-21 KJV
God already knew tbey would break the covenant and would receive all th cirses in the law for doing so curses like this
“But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will
not do all these commandments; and if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments,
so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant: I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
And I will
set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you. I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate.
And
I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities,
I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
And
ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
And I will
destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
And I will make
your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours. And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
And I will
scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.”
Leviticus 26:14-17, 22, 25, 29-33 KJV
The old covenant was broken and fulfilled as a curse The land is desolate thier inheritance was made desolate they didn’t “ lose “ it they could inherit a blessing in tbier land or a curse they chose the curse and desolation that’s the reason we need a new covenant because of this
“The earth also is
defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.”
Isaiah 24:5 KJV
when they rejected and condemned Jesus to death this was thier last chance and led to this
“But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the Lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same is become the head of the corner: This is the Lord's doing, And it is marvellous in our eyes?
Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.”
Matthew 21:37-43 KJV
they weren’t offered the kingdom of God ( heavenly ) until Jesus came preaching it when they rejected Jesus that severed Israel’s covenant and left them desolate as all mankind is without accepting Jesus and his gospel that’s all there is for Israel or gentiles all nations
Notice something was taken away from them because of what they did and it was given to other people.
any israelite can be saved the exact same way any gentile can be saved all things are equal Now and all
Is based on Jesus and his word that’s where the inheritance is in the Heir
