Just one f'rinstance: When Jesus said "if you do not believe I am he" He was referring to the Son of Man. Remember that just before that, he had said "when you have lifted up the Son of Man..."
Did you know that God, Himself, called Ezekiel "Son of Man?"
I was where you are at about 1957. I have read and studied the bible since 1945 (I learned to read out ot the KJV.)
Long ago I learned that ALL of the seed of Israel will be saved. The gifts and callings of God are without repentance.
Now go spend your time learning why churches are preaching a gospel of salvation and not the gospel of the kingdom that Jesus taught.
Galatians 1:
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
Did you know that God, Himself, called Ezekiel "Son of Man?"
Huh?
Show me where Jesus says if the Jews don't believe in Ezekial that they will die in their sins.
Show me where Ezekial claims he is King of the Jews, as Jesus says of Himself to Pilate.
Show me where the disciples say that there is "One name" under heaven by which men might be saved and it is Ezekial.
Nothing you say has a thing to do with the numerous claims that Jesus is the ONLY Son of God and the ONLY WAY to salvation.

That makes it even more surprising you know so little about the teachings of Christ.
Long ago I learned that ALL of the seed of Israel will be saved. The gifts and callings of God are without repentance.
You are deceived.
Both John the Baptist and Jesus Christ began their ministries with the message "Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand".
Ask me who I believe, them or you.
