I know I said it was the end of our conversation but I can't let this go.
Do you think saul (paul) hated God???
I don't know if he hated God or not, I would say not. But whether he did or didn't, he was still an enemy of God and to Go'd people until he was converted.

For those who believe in this replacement theology explain these.

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim. Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the Lord their God and David their king. They shall fear the Lord and His goodness in the latter days.

For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear them and go away; I will take them away, and no one shall rescue. I will return again to My place Till they acknowledge their offense. Then they will seek My face; In their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.”
I don't believe God has ever replaced his chosen people but I can explain what those verses mean.

I don't know when "many days without king or prince" was, but David their king was Jesus. Jesus came and preached the gospel, went away, and now it is up to Israel to seek Jesus.

The whole earth belongs to the Christ not just a plot of land

notice how he has been exposed of changing the word of God and now he has to back-peddle and use strawman, because he has to run from his mistake

will he repent or continue the nonsense?
You say God promised to give the land of Canaan to Abraham as an inheritance, when did Abraham inherit it?

Good now we're getting some where.
Wouldn't you say that the above is referencing modern times. Israel has been without a temple for almost 2 thousand yrs.
When the scriptures point to David it can also be that it is pointing to jesus..(son of david) the one to...sit on David's throne.

Scripture has a face value but also has a phrase value.

There are probably hundreds of reasons that I don't think that is referencing modern times. The biggest one is probably in Amos where God said he is finished with Israel forever.

Amo 8:2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the LORD unto me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.

For whatever reason, some people don't believe this. Why don't you believe it? That happened when Jesus took the kingdom from them, God isn't going to give the kingdom back to them. You're side has got to understand that there are two types of Israels in the bible and each and every verse must be examined to see WHICH ISRAEL is being talked about.

Jesus did not take the kingdom away from them for in fact he said that his kingdom is not of this world.

Already answered so many times I lost count

and it was not just Abraham, it was his descendents through one seed (Issac)

and God told them when they would actually receive it also. Although Abraham was shown to have possessed when he and Lott picked a place to live and God told him he gave him all he could see

I don't think people understand that the kingdom of heaven was under the stewardship of the flesh descendants of Israel, of which, the vast majority were wicked, and took advantage of the spiritual descendants.

God allowed that too happen until Christ came and took the kingdom from the flesh descendants and gave it to the spiritual descendants. He allowed it to happen because the FIRST BORN is the lawful inheritor until they SELL that birthright for a morsel of food.

You guys who stand for the flesh descendants of Israel are standing in support of the wicked Jews who lorded over, persecuted, and took advantage of the spiritual Jews right from the start.

The bible says differently.

Act 7:4 Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
Act 7:5 And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.

Cherry picking I see.

So they took him and cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. “Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?” They said to Him, “He will destroy those wicked men miserably, and lease his vineyard to other vinedressers who will render to him the fruits in their seasons.”

Lease......and ......in their season......not forever. Time of the gentiles?

Nobody owns the VINE, Jesus, the word of God. The lease is the agreement between the OWNER of the vineyard and OTHER (not wicked Jews) vinedressers. Those SERVANTS will render to the MASTER the fruits of the Kingdom of heaven.

Do you get it now? The wicked Jews that you guys call God's chosen people DID NOT do anything to bring in the fruits and literally KILLED the Master's son.

Do you at least now agree with me that the kingdom was taken from the wicked Jews and given to the Godly Jews?

Great, you gave the verses where God promised the land to Abraham. Now post the verse where Abraham inherited that land.

Ok we see that the children of Israel were to be held in Egypt for 400 years.... well after Abraham left this world, what does this have to do with Abraham inheriting Canaan? Are you trying to say that Abraham himself would never inherit but only his children?

Did God keep his promise yes or no? Did they possess the land as promised?

did Abraham live in the land he saw, while his nephew lived elsewhere?

you think your going to trip me up or something?

I love you EG, I don't want to see you tripped up. All I'm trying to do is show you scripture to help you see the truth. We both know that Abraham never inherited Canaan, but we both know that he did inherit the promised land because the verses I posted way back (can't remember the passage now) said that Abraham received his inheritance. I'll see if I can find those verses again.

I found it. Abraham patiently endured and finally God gave him the promised land.

Heb 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
Heb 6:14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
Heb 6:15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
