I'm sorry, but I'm in my mid-fifties and with cancer. I'm not here to have these conversations. Since you're completely unfriendly, and just so that you will know why I am not responding to you, you have been placed on my block list. I hope you have a change of heart one day.
Ezekiel 36:25-27 NLT - "Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. Your filth will be washed away, and you will no longer worship idols. And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations."

But what does their interpretation mean to you? A dispensationalist is going to say they agree with the scripture you posted, but they disagree with you.
And again the word of the Lord came to Haggai on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying, 21“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying:
‘I will shake heaven and earth.
I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms;
I will destroy the strength of the Gentile kingdoms.
I will overthrow the chariots
And those who ride in them;
The horses and their riders shall come down,
Every one by the sword of his brother.
‘In that day,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘I will take you, Zerubbabel My servant, the son of Shealtiel,’ says the Lord, ‘and will make you like a signet ring; for I have chosen you,’ says the Lord of hosts.”
Did God make Zerubabbel his signet ring in 70AD? Honestly this probably the first time I've ever referred back to Haggai through Hebrews- but, this looks pretty solid for dispensationalism doesn't it? Jesus wasn't a descendant of Zerubabbel- so there's no way Jesus fulfilled that, is there?
