Is that for every evil doing in Israel and Judah?
“Those who have turned back from following the LORD” (Zephaniah 1:6) are in addition to Judah and Jerusalem (Zephaniah 1:4).

Is that for every evil doing in Israel and Judah?
If it is not for us, then what good is it, in your opinion?
Do you think we haven't read the Bible?It is for Judah and Jerusalem, whom I will“chastised justly” (Jeremiah 30:11), and the “nations where I have scattered you”, whom “I will destroy completely” (Jeremiah 30:11) & Zephaniah 1:3).
Here's another lesson I learned. What is good for one man is good for another. Or what is bad for one man is bad for another. With God, there is no distinction between one person and another or between one group and another or between one nation and another.
Ways and means are not infinite. What happens to a nation for their sins is not unique to that sinning nation. Jehovah is Just and so what a nation was warned about can be understood as universal. Do you @2ndpillar not know that about the Bible?

Israel is forgiven for GOD'S name just like everyone can be forgiven for GOD'S name.Au contraire mon ami. Israel is being forgiven of her sins because of her name. (Ezekiel 36:21-28), and will be taken from the nations and “you will live on the land that I gave to our forefathers” (Ex 36:26-28), and “I will give you a new heart” and you will “observe my ordinances”. As for the “nations” where I have “I have scattered you”, “I will completely destroy”. (Jeremiah 30:11).
Is that your final word about it? Remember that.Reading the bible, and having understanding, are two different things. The “wicked”, those who do not follow the LORD, but follow the dragon, and his false prophet, are according to Daniel12:10, unable to “understand”. That is why you are, according to one of your members, without Spirit or power.
Strawman.Apparently you think you are going to be protected from "justice", by the sacrifice of another for your on going "iniquities". Don't count on it. (Jeremiah 31:30). You will not escape death, as promised by the serpent and his son Paul (Genesis 3:4) & ( 1 Thessalonians 4:17). "every one dies for his own iniquity" (Jer 31:30).
There is a difference between excusing sin and forgiving it. God does not excuse the sinner. But, when asked in real faith she is forgiven her sin.Apparently you think you are going to be protected from "justice", by the sacrifice of another for your on going "iniquities". Don't count on it.

And, hahahahahahahahaha the Jehovah's Witnesses seem to think that it is an ongoing sin to be ignoring the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses and to disagree with the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. I'm betting on it isn't a sin. OK?
Anyone (not you ) being a jerk isn't going to change my mind about that
Less talk, I say!Please turn off the water. I can’t understand what you are saying when you go swirling down the drain. At least better preface your remarks.
And what was the consequence of Adam breaking God’s Law? And what is the consequence of man breaking God’s Law today. Is there someone who also teaches that you “have been released from the Law” (Romans 7:6), and as with the “serpent”, you will not die ( 1 Thessalonians 4:17).
And who was Isaiah speaking about? (Isaiah 33:20) And who were the people who live there? (Isaiah 33:24) & (Ezekiel 37:15-25) And who were left outside of the gate? (Revelation 22:14 & 15)

That Jesus wept. Compassion is the hallmark of his message.If you have read the bible, what primary lesson did you learn?
In Scripture there is often a minor and a MAJOR fulfillment.
The people of Isaiah 33:20 were Not pardoned for their iniquity (sins ) or they would have Not died.
But the people living under Christ's millennium-long day of governing over Earth will be pardoned.
That is why 1 Corinthians 15:26; Isaiah 25:8 lets us know ' enemy death ' will be No more on Earth.
Just as a governor can pardon a person so ' crime ' charges No longer stick, Jesus can pardon a person so the 'sin' charges No longer stick. That is what allows residences of earth at that time to be able to say, " I am Not sick...."
The broad rivers of Isaiah 33:21 in connection to Jeremiah 2:13 which are first a ' spiritual river ' of protection.
That would be followed by ' literal ' waters of Revelation 22:2, and for the healing of earth's nations.
The nations of Ezekiel 37:28 will know because since Pentecost the Israel of God is the Christian congregation.
Since Pentecost it is Jerusalem ' above ' that is Now mother - Galatians 4:26.
So, since Pentecost as per Romans 2:28-29 we are talking about a spiritual Israel, as spiritual nation as found mentioned at 1 Peter 2:9,5. A nation with No borders nor boundaries and Not located on any map.
I find there is ' reward ' mentioned at Revelation 22:12 and that is in connection to Revelation 22:14.
The ' reward' of the return of the Genesis ' tree of life ' as mentioned at Revelation 22:22 for healing earth's nations.
The ' adverse ' outside-the gate judgement is against those figurative haughty ' goats ' of Matthew 25:31-33.
