“He is not a Jew that is one outwardly, but he is a Jew that is one inwardly.” Are you trying to say that all of those ‘lost sheep’ were Jews inwardly? “By their fruit ye shall know them.” “He that saith he loveth me, and keepeth not my commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in him.”
HP you are all over the place. You just need to stick to one subject
You are cherry picking a lot of verses there that don't speak to the same subject.
Let's just take what the text says. Jesus came to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Most of Christendom has taken the word lost and equated it with unsaved, but there is nothing in Scripture that shows us that equation.
What does it mean to be lost? It means that it is an object that belongs to an owner which is not currently in his possession.
So you have saved individual that belong to God, who are not currently in His possession because like the prodigal son they have gone off to do their own thing.
But unlike the father in the prodigal story, the Father has gone looking for His sheep to save them. Not because they are eternally unsaved, because they are already His sheep, but because they are away from His care and are among the dangers of the wolves and other enemies of the sheep.
Also you just have to look at the message that was being delivered to these people to know they were spiritually alive, which means they were eternally saved. The message was a spiritual message of the kingdom. The kingdom is located in a spiritual realm that is not perceivable with the five senses.
So in order to even understand the message to either accept or reject it their spirits had to have been alive or they wouldn't have even been able to understand what was being said.
That's what Jesus told Nicodemus in John 3. He rebuked him because these were things that he should have known already.
If he was unsaved then there is no way possible he could have known these things, but Jesus said he should have which means his spirit was alive, just very sick.
