The Deliver came out of Zion and took away ungodliness from Jacob (the house of Israel and the house of Judah), making a covenant with them (the new covenant) in the day he took away their (and our) sins.
Jesus will not return to die a second time for the sins of the world.
But sin is still in the world, and needs to be removed.
That is why the verse has not been fulfilled, even though you claim it cannot be ever fulfilled.
"And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins."
I did not claim it cannot ever be fulfilled. I said
it has already been fulfilled, once for all, and will not be fulfilled again when Jesus come back.
Please do not misrepresent what I say. It makes you a liar and a deceiver.
Sin is still in the world but it has
already been removed
once for all in the blood of Christ. That's the gospel that has been preached in all the world for the last 2,000 years.
"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us."
I am as confused as John is. You have totally missed John's point.
You are indeed extremely confused Tim, because it is you who are missing John's point, because the above does not mean that the Deliverer has
not yet come out of Zion, making a covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah (the new covenant) in the day He took away their sins, nearly 2,000 years ago - which is what you were claiming:
But sin is still in the world, and needs to be removed.
That is why the verse has not been fulfilled, even though you claim it cannot be ever fulfilled.
"And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins."
Learn the difference between Jesus taking away our sin once for all 2,000 years ago, and sin still being in the world.
Also notice that John's first point which you quoted is that
if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we will have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus,
shed for sins nearly 2,000 ago, cleanses us from all sin.
You are not walking in the light if you claim Jesus will take away sin when He returns - because He has already done that, once for all, when He shed His blood and died, nearly 2,000 years ago. He is not coming to take away anyone's sin when He returns. He is coming in judgment of all who do not believe in Him, Jews and Gentiles alike, and to deliver all who believe in Him, Jews and Gentiles in Christ, from their tribulation at the hands of the beast's armies.
Your Dispy buddies have been liking every post of yours and your posts are becoming more coherent, albeit still contradictory. Makes it seem like you have your Dispy buddies sending you PM with posts for you to copy and paste because they know I have them on ignore
(Not saying it is the case that they are sending you stuff to post via PM but it sure makes it look like it).
Anyway, I'm going to put any more of your posts in this thread about this subject on ignore too now, because the subject has been exhausted.
