Roll those dice.

I do not see a single one of those appearing in NT Scripture as a criterion that God uses to identify Jews that He will gather. You mention "Jewish tradition", about which Christ said in admonishing the Pharisees: Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition... What...

According to Darby/Scofield dispensational futurist fantasy, we don't know, because they haven't been sent out yet.

I'm stocked up on popcorn. Sozomen (ca. A.D.375-447) "Ecclesiastical History" Book V, Chapter XXII Though the emperor [Julian the Apostate] hated and oppressed the Christians, he manifested benevolence and humanity towards the Jews. He wrote to the Jewish patriarchs and leaders, as well as to...

But you claimed that God is gathering Jews. Does that not mean that He is gathering Jews from outside of the land of Israel to bring them inside of the land of Israel? Thus the question remains: What are the criteria that God uses to identify Jews outside of the land of Israel?

You continue to use the terms "Jews" and "Israel", but we know that Jews and Israel cannot be identified genetically because every human being possesses some amount of Abraham's genome. So what are your criteria for identifying Jews and Israel? If God is gathering Jews together, what criteria...

From Wikipedia: Writer Greg Dues, author of Catholic Customs & Traditions, claims that "Priesthood as we know it in the Catholic church was unheard of during the first generation of Christianity, because at that time priesthood was still associated with animal sacrifices in both the Jewish and...

Really. One, and only One High Priest, Christ Jesus. No manufactured RC priests. Every true believer is a priest.

Thank God for the Reformers, and the Reformation, which liberated His True Church from the spiritual darkness and oppression of the apostate papacy.

There was no office of "priest" in the NT Church. Every true believer is a priest. (1 Peter 2:5; 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 1:6; Revelation 5:10)

That is the claim of an antichrist, as the Reformers recognized and proclaimed.

Peter was Petros. Christ is Petra. As Scripture declares.

Who were "yourselves"?

So then only Christ is The Petra Rock. Not Peter. As Scripture declares.

Let's examine some of your claims. That is true. So the pope is redundant. 1 Corinthians 12 4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit...

You continue to be unable to produce any Scriptural explanation of why you believe that Peter is The Petra Rock. Contrary to your own Codex Vaticanus. I'm awaiting your explanation.

There is not a hint that Peter is referring to the Israeli nation. He is referring to the holy nation of the Church, as described in the antecedent verse of 1 Peter 2:5.

The collection of God's People across every nation, is a nation. Not a geopolitical nation. A holy nation.

God's People among all nations (Acts 10:34-35) are a nation.

Explain how the nation of 1 Peter 2:9, God's People of Faith and Obedience who follow Abraham's footsteps of faith and obedience and are heirs of his promises (Galatians 3:29); is not a nation. Your denial of that reality is not Scriptural.
