Now, I know from experience that this can be confusing, unless
you believe the Word of God. God has cast off His people from
old because He came to His own (Israel) and they (Israel) received
Him not. So what happened to them? They have been downtrodden
ever since.
The Roman army in A.D. 70 laid Jerusalem to the ground and
the people with it and they were taken captive among the Nations
and have been a dispersed people ever since. But one day in
the future when the Anti-Christ befriends them and confirms
a covenant made with them, the Tribulation will begin. That
will be the end for us who are saved on this Earth; we will
have already been raptured out of here to be with the Lord during
that period of time. Then Israel will be downtrodden by the
Gentiles in a way they never have been before, it will be a
time of utter destruction on this Earth. Yet, God will save
some of them out of all that and begin to start a new Nation
of them. At that time and from that time on, they will be exalted
above ALL nations on the Earth, believe it or not.
So, what is this period of time we are living in now? Why was
it not seen by the Old Testament prophets? Because it was a
mystery and it wasn’t revealed until the Lord showed it
to the Apostle Paul. Colossians 1:25 Whereof I am made a minister,
according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for
you, to fulfill the word of God; 26 Even the mystery which hath
been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest
to his saints. 27 To whom God would make known what is the riches
of the glory of this mystery among the gentiles; which is Christ
in you, the hope of glory.
Why is that such a big deal? Ok, first there was a gap in God’s
word that needed to be filled. Second, it was a mystery hid
from ages and generations. Third, the riches of His glory is
now manifest unto the gentiles and to all men, including (anybody).
This is the only way a Jew can be saved today, or anyone else
for that matter.
You see, before Israel was cast away, we as Gentiles had no
hope. Ephesians 2:11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time
passed Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision
by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by
hands; 12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens
from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God
in the world. Eph. 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand
my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 5 Which in other ages
was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed
unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6 That the
Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers
of his promise in Christ by the Gospel.
The 70th week, is the Tribulation, the time of Jacobs Trouble,
The Time of the Anti-Christ. It will be 2520 days long and it
will be divided into two parts. In Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks
are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish
the transgression and make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation
for iniquity, and bring in everlasting righteousness, and to
seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
I would like to point out that in this verse of prophecy, the
Lord will be dealing with Israel as a Nation again. The Lord
will also be pouring His wrath out upon the Jewish people at
that time. Notice in the verse above that The Angel spoke to
Daniel and said “Thy People” (Jews), and Thy Holy
City (Jerusalem). Right in the middle or thereabouts, The Anti-Christ
is going into the Temple as sit and proclaim that he is actually
God. There will be a time of trouble on this world such has
never been nor ever will be again.
Folks, pray to God almighty you don’t end up in this,
because you will be given strong delusion and believe a lie
and be damned for sure. I know people who think they are going
through the Tribulation. I pray you will trust Jesus Christ
as your Savior today and escape that.
That is all for today.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and believe in thine heart God hath raised him form the
dead, thou shall be saved.
That’s all there is to it, nothing more, nothing less.
It is what the Word of God says. Trust it today won’t
you? Right there where you are say yes I believe it. Then go
get you a King James Bible and begin to study it.
Shalom
Michael
Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
