True. However that is not talking about earning salvation,. that is the gift of God. If someone's works are burned, they are still saved. They simply will not have much rewards. Absolutely. God wants us to be loving above all. That is how He is. The verse is not talking about three flavors of...

Not sure who or what you are talking about here. I'll just chalk it up to more conflated religious drivel.

Except the commentary I posted places that passage in history not future prophesy.

No, we do not know any such thing. The nation born before He comes would only be the start of the future nation, I would think. In other words, the saved, the redeemed Jews, the repentant Israel. That was not 1948. That may fit the converts of the early church who were Jewish, and that may fir...

If it is talking about events surrounding the time around the captivity, then it does not matter. Not even a pathetic joke compared to how God promises to wipe out their enemies. Not fit at all. One man calls something a miracle, another calls it demonic activity, another calls it technology...

Not every instance of God being angry is the Great Tribulation. The focus here according to the commentaries I looked at was the time before the captivity. Here is an example. " With Jerusalem’s end approaching, God again told Ezekiel to show the city its sins and the humiliating judgment that...

Romans 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ-- Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. The verse you cited had no relation to anything discussed.. Romans 13:11 And...

No offence but why would I care what modern Catholics think? There are thousands of molestations and a leader that does not even seem to be a believer.

Keep your religious dogmas thanks.

The topic is not rituals or salvation by some other mechanism or way than belief in Jesus.

Baloney. Baptism does not save us. 1 Peter 3:21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, It shows or symbolizes that we are saved. Jesus saves.

2 Timothy 2:13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. 1 Corinthians 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

Notice He did not say he that is not baptized is damned. "but he that believeth not shall be damned."

Name a sacrament that saves us?

Right There's an interesting computation, I've been trying to find it, I'll try from memory, Ezekiel laid on one side for 390 days, the other side 40 days, for a total of 430 days, a day for a year for the sins of Israel and Judah. 430 years of punishment, but God sent them into captivity for...

I see you are really going bananas here on the ritual/sacrifice thing. I'm not buying, thanks Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

Isa 1:13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. If you like 'sacraments', enjoy. Jesus saves, though.

Both the thief on the cross, and the remnant of Israel that are saved when they see Jesus say your sacraments are not what matters. The heart matters.

I am right, you are wrong. The chapter was talking to the enemies of Israel. Yes God is using them to chastise Israel. Yes He knew the secular nation would exist at that time. No, it was not Him tenderly gathering then to get there and protecting them yet etc.

Off base twistings and contortions of verses that do not show God restoring or gathering Israel in this end time actually. I pointed out clearly how. Read it. When He brings them from the nations we will know it, and He will be right there as their Shepherd in Person. Just because Israel will be...
