>>>Okay, maybe I need to help you one more time with Amos: :-)<<<

I explained all this from Amos in my post #135 to you. The problem with your (and their) interpretation was that the "planting forever" in Amos occurred after Israel's return from captivity, long before the days of Christ. Like every other promise made by God, it was contingent on their good behavior. We all know the rest. They turned back to their evil ways, and God divorced them in 70 AD.

You couldn't be more wrong. Amos chp. 9 describes the "complete" destruction and dispersal of the entire population ("I will shake the people of Israel among all the nations"), which by the way, only the northern tribes were taken into the first captivity by Babylon. Judah was left behind.

And what of the other 9 prophecies in the list I linked to you. Where is your rebuke of those???
