we are told Ezekiel 36 pertains to the modern state of Israel.

ok, let’s test that theory:

Israel was formed in 1948, 67 years ago.
when did God sprinkle clean water upon them?
cleanse them from their filthiness?
give them a new heart?
put his spirit in them?
when did they start following his statutes?

all these things described above occur when someone is regenerated, translated out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God’s Son.

none of these things have happened to national Israel ( although individually some Jews have become Christian just like some have always in the last 2,000 years )

the promised land is heaven, dwelling with God forever.

So you are saying that if it hasn't happened by now God isn't going to keep His promise to them?

>>the promised land is heaven, dwelling with God forever.<<

Here is what God said.

"And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers;"

Please show where God said "the land that I gave to your fathers" was heaven.
