Isa 45:17
But Israel shall be saved in the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
This is a promise as to who exactly shall be saved in the Lord. The Lord Jesus Christ that is, for Salvation is not in any other as Peter writes Acts 4:12
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Now who is Israel in Isa 45:17 ?
Did you know that the Lord Jesus Christ is in scripture identified as Israel ? Lets look at Isa 49:1-3
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
Israel here is Jesus Christ whom God will be Glorified. Thats why Jesus said on an occasion Jn 17:4
4I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
Isa 49:3 is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, Israel the servant of God. Jesus took on the form of a servant to do this Phil 2:7
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
So the Israel in Isa 45:15 that is Promised to be saved in the Lord is the Church, the Body of Christ/Israel, for He is the Saviour of His Body Eph 5:23
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ[Israel] is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
But Israel shall be saved in the Lord with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
