This is contradictory and non-factual.
First, God promised and made the new covenant with the houses of Israel and Judah (glory to God for bringing his words to pass!), Many of Israel and Judah entered into that covenant. They were not gentiles; they were natural sons of Abraham. Yet neo-pharisee Christians deny this fulfillment, which brings us to the next point.
Second, nowhere in scripture is it said that Israel would be restored as an earthy nation. That is a neo-pharisee interpretation based on unbelief. Rather it says Israel would be gathered one from a city and two from a family, ie, a remnant. of Israel, but not gathered as a nation
Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: Jeremiah 3:14
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel. Isaiah 27:12
The only way prophecy is related to salvation is if you believe Him who gave it.
And there are those who are and will be saved by believing these prophecies.
And thereby believe Him who uttered them.
In fact that is exactly what made a believer out of me. FACTS.
No snake oil selling clueless "preacher" ignorantly screeching hellfire at me ever convinced me of anything other than thinking he had a criminal psychological profile.
And BTW, all of the seminal prophetic 7 feasts of Moses have NOT YET been fulfilled.
They can ONLY be completely fulfilled by the redemption of the Nation Israel and the Second Coming.
Christ's saves people, not nations. The latter is a neo-pharisee belief
There are HUNDREDS of clear unequivocal statements, prophecies and promises made by God declaring the Israel will be reconstituted and redeemed. Literally 1/3 of the entire Bible is loaded with this topic.
What does any of this have to do with the faith of Christ? We are to die to the old man that tells us to obey the flesh rather than the voice of God. The apostles and all other children of Israel who believed didn't stop being sons of Abraham. Their identity glorified God because it proved his faithfulness to his word.
And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19:9-10
It means just what Paul said it means:
Phil 3:1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2 Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
When you say they were "jews" and thus not the "Gentile church" you are judging according to the flesh. When I get saved and it is Christ in me, I am every bit as much a "Jew" as anyone else in the church. It is not based on the flesh but the spirit.
The church is one, there is no "Jewish church" and "Gentile church". That is divisive and Paul completely rebukes that thought as being a damnable heresy.
I have no idea of what it feels like to be 100% wrong 100% of the time about everything.
And I definitely don't want to know.
Mat 25:31
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
Mat 25:32
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
Mat 25:33
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Mat 25:34
Then shall the King say unto them (THE NATIONS) on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Mat 25:35
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Mat 25:36
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Mat 25:37
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
Mat 25:38
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Mat 25:39
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
Mat 25:40
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Astounding Biblical illiteracy on display right here.
You are degrading moment by moment right before our very eyes!
Nations don't believe in God and therefore can't be saved. Salvation is the new birth, which only individuals can experience
Christ's brethren on his right hand are those who do God's will
But [Jesus] answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. Matthew 12:48-50
Right, but in the flesh they were Jews, so the prophecies were fulfilled in them. To the Jews first, then to the nations. Jesus didn't come to the gentiles, he came to Israel; then he went to the nations through his apostles.
btw, there is no church. It is the assembly of God composed of all of faith throughout history, who were/are taken out of natural Israel and the nations.
A-10 Warthog Is Doing Something HUGE to Iran
These things are slower than the other jets and are not stealthy and usually fly much lower. That is why you have to wait until air defenses are gone, but once they are, this thing is terrifying to anyone on the ground. The IRGC will now be completely terrified, hiding in holes in the ground.
I suspect this is what the Kurds and the Prince were waiting for. The US probably told them to wait until they brought out the warthogs.
