When Jesus spoke John 10: 16 the beginning of the fulfillment of Hosea 2: 23 in Acts 10 was future from that time.
Nope - ALL of Hosea is ALL about Israel.
This is Paul's "As he saith ALSO in Osee..." Rom. 9:26.
The PROPHETIC order is....
Turn from them in His wrath for their rebellion.
Not pour out His wrath, but turn from them in His wrath...for a time.
Do something else He had planned on doing during His turn from them in His wrath for their rebellion.
Accomplish this something else.
Then...return to the issue of dealing with Israel in His wrath.
Pouring out said wrath...
Prior to His mercy unto them...
For this is My covenant unto them.
Where the Reformed School got it wrong is in that which even a child comes to understand.
Its' moms' anouncemnt in her anger "wait til your father gets home" (returns) followed by a resulting delay of the coming "hell to pay" followed by its' parents' mercy.
Its' mom's "go to your room til your father gets home" is much like the delay of the Father's pending wrath after His turn from Israel in His wrath.
And only an unfit parent REMAINS angery with its' child AFTER the issues that had provoked said parent to wrath...have been dealt with.
In this, even the Preterist ends up proving that 70AD was NOT the end as to God and Jacob.
Those who assert otherwise are merely in unbelief in their ignorance of the above simple difference between God's temporary turn from Israel in His wrath...followed by His doing something else during said temporary turn from Israel in His wrath...just as He'd planned...followed by His turning back to Israel to pour out His wrath...followed by His mercy upon Israel...
70AD?
It took place DURING God's TEMPORARY turn from Israel in His wrath...
Rome was NOT God's hand upon Israel.
HE has YET turned BACK UNTO THEM to FIRST pour out His wrath UPON them PRIOR TO His EQUALLY PROPHESIED Mercy UPON "ye sons OF JACOB."
The Reformed has it wrong.
The Acts 2 Dispy has it wrong.
The Almost Acts 28er Dispy has it wrong.
The Acts 28er Dispy has it wrong.
Only the consistent Acts 9 Dispy has it right.
Romans 11:23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again. 11:24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
When, per what Paul has been dissecting in Romans 9-11?
11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
How?
Per..."as it is written..."
11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
Until then...but nevertheless...
11:28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.
Why nevertheless...
11:29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
Until then His delay AND His doing of something other than as to Israel...once more...just as had been the case in Hosea's day...
Romans 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
What NOW - What is He waiting for NOW - He has proven His case - what NOW - why can't He just pour out His wrath and get on with it!
9:22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 9:23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, 9:24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? 9:25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. 9:26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God. 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved: 9:28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. 9:29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. 9:30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith. 9:31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. 9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
