>>>Yeah, didn’t think you could. /snicker<<<

Well, I’ll be! The master “literalist” is at a loss for words.

One day, “Saint Cynical,” you must explain to us “non-literalists” how these verses in Ezekiel can be taken literally:

Eze 34:23-24 KJV
Hos 3:4-5 KJV - parallel to Eze 34:23-24
Ezekiel 48:1-7
Ezekiel 48:23-29

You remember those verses. They are the ones you failed to address previously in this thread: the ones you are failing to address now.. Maybe by the time you realize those verses cannot be taken literally, you will have learned what a cult really is.

Sure, if your head wasn’t stuck in Preterism you may see it also. I doubt you will as you have been blinded.

Ezekiel 34: 22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. 23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. 24 And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it. 25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. 27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them. 28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. 29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more. 30 Thus shall they know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord God. 31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.

God “literally” told us who He was talking about and He is “literally” currently re-gathering Israel to the land He gave them just as He promised He would.

Hosea 3:4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim: 5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall fear the Lord and his goodness in the latter days.

The nation of Israel has been without a king, prince, and without sacrifice for “many days”. God is now re-gathering them in the land He gave them and will finish what He promised. Stay tuned. Your “it’s all past” is falling apart as Israel is being set back in their land.

Ezekiel 48 – all that land will once again belong to the nation of Israel.

BTW I am under no obligation to respond you your every error and carnal blathering.
