Its a lost cause. Evangelicals will never give up the man made zion idea. Despite Revelation saying GOD brings his holy city DOWN FROM HEAVEN. imo, all sides are building a throne for the antichrist.
And if you believe trying to actively bring about the second coming is a good idea? Will refer you to Amos "Woe to you who long for the day of the Lord".
The promises don't apply unbelieving Jews. They apply to those who have been baptized into Jesus Christ.
Galatians 3:26-29 "You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise."
God's promise to the Jews who worship Moloch and the star of their god Rephan is exile.
Acts 7:43 "And you took up the tabernacle of Moloch and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made to worship them; and I will remove you beyond Babylon.'"
This, as quoted by Stephen was a history lesson and a reminder that they had not always followed God's law. Later in this very section it is pointed out that godly Jews buried him.
Acts 7:58
And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.
And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit,
And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.

God’s promises to Israel are still in effect. Maranatha quickly is appropriate.
