To: one Lord one faith one baptism
sounds final to me, but maybe my Bible is wrong.

Oh no, the Bible is never wrong. Especially when God tells His people:

At that time I will bring you in, even at the time when I gather you together; indeed, I will give you renown and praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I restore your fortunes before your eyes,” Says the LORD. (Zephaniah 3:20)

“I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and bring them to their own land; and I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams, and in all the inhabited places of the land. 14“I will feed them in a good pasture, and their grazing ground will be on the mountain heights of Israel. There they will lie down on good grazing ground and feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. (Ezekiel 34: 13-14)

And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart. (Jeremiah 24:7)

"Behold, I am bringing them from the north country, and I will gather them from the remote parts of the earth, among them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and she who is in labor with child, together; a great company, they will return here. (Jeremiah 31:8)

So no, the Bible is never wrong, but people with agendas can twist the words of the Bible to fit the way they wish things were.

And, as we know from Jesus Christ Himself, the Father and Son are one, and we know from the Bible that God promises repeatedly to bring His people back into their own land, and we know from history that God has been fulfilling that promise since the 1800s, so when Jesus said the fig tree would no longer bear fruit, it is an impossibility that that means that God is finished with the Jews.

So while the Bible is never wrong, people who make a habit of denying Scripture and picking and choosing the few Scriptures that they think they can change around to conform to their agenda, will continue to delude themselves that the Bible in "on their side", even if they have declared war with God by hating His people.

His People = The Church, made up of Jew and Gentile.

His People is not those who reject Jesus, even if they are biologically Jewish.

The issue is Jesus and who do you say He is?

Read Romans 9.

“for not all those who are descended from Israel belong to Israel”
