The Prophesied Restorations of Israel and Judah After 7 Times: Summary and Comparison
United States: Because of their religious beliefs and their poverty, most of America’s early colonists were outcasts of Britain and other parts of Northern Europe.
Israel: Jews were outcasts in Europe before the 18th century’s Age of Enlightenment, due to religious, racial, and economic prejudices.
United States: The Reformation of the 16th century brought the colonists hope for religious

“The Antichrist” Myth
The Antichrist – a term broadly used throughout the Church to describe a single man who will come to rule the whole world – is a myth based upon an old rumor.
This rumor has its first and only biblical reference in 1 John 1:18 –
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is a last hour; and as you have heard that Antichrist is coming,
The Prophesied Restoration of Israel After 7 Times, Part 2: 1754 – 1783 AD
On May 28 and July 3-4, 1754 AD (5747 AA), skirmishes between George Washington’s colonials and French forces in the Ohio Valley sparked the French and Indian War. This conflict lasted nearly nine years. During the war, the American colonial governments were greatly strengthened, and they acquired extensive territory.

The Three Earthquakes of Revelation
Some people believe and teach that the the Seals, Trumpets and Bowls of Revelation all take place concurrently. Others teach that only the Trumpets and Bowls are concurrent, and are part of the Seventh Seal. There are many reasons why neither of these things is possible, when all of the other scriptures, particularly th
The “First” Resurrection of Revelation 20:5-6
Some people have misunderstood the πρωτη/“first” resurrection of Revelation 20:5-6. As a result, they have missed the mark about when, and why, the saints will be resurrected from the dead in the End Times.
Here is that passage in its context. These events follow the Battle of Armageddon – at which Christ fully defeats his earthly enemies and secures his earthly reign – and mark the commencement of the Millennium.

The Prophesied Restoration of Judah After 7 Times, Part 2: 1947 – 2000 AD
On May 14, 1948 AD (5944 AA), the Jews in Palestine established and proclaimed the independent State of Israel. This had been made possible by the United Nations, which had sanctioned the partition of Palestine into Jewish and Palestinian-Arab states on Nov. 29, 1947 (late 5943 AA).
7 times earlier, in the Autumn of 538 BC (3423 AA), Babylon fell to King Cyrus of Persia, and the Babylonian Empire was thereafter
The Psalm 83 War: When?
Another popular but misguided teaching these days says this: Psalm 83 is a prophecy about an End Time war against the nation of Israel.
In fact, this psalm, along with other closely related psalms, speaks about a past event that took place in 485 B.C. In that year, the newly-crowned Emperor Xerxes of Persia, dealing with rebellions throughout the empire at the death of his father Darius, allowed the neighboring enemies of the rebellious province of Judah to puni

John 1:1 In [the] beginning was the Word…
When the Apostle John wrote this phrase, he did not include the definite article “the” before “beginning.” English-Bible translators have presumed that a “the” is implied, and so have included it.

The 7 times prophecy of Leviticus 26 speaks of the judgment of all of the Israelites, that is, both Israel and Judah. God prophesied their expulsion from their lands to take place at the point when His chastisement of the people for their rebellions reached its limit. “I will bring the land into desolation…and I will scatter you among the heathen.” Even if the people in their exile were to later repent – “if their uncircumcised h

On June 11, 1578 AD (5569 AA†), Sir Humphrey Gilbert was granted a 6-year patent by England’s Queen Elizabeth to explore and colonize North America. The first (failed) expedition, led by Walter Raleigh, took place between Sept. 1578 and May 1579. Gilbert was lost at sea during another attempt in 1583. Raleigh received a new 6-year patent on May 25, 1584, and planted colonies on Roanoke and Croatan Islands in present-
