This is a rude and untrue accusation. Understanding the Prophesies correctly, requires a knowledge of ALL the scriptures pertaining to the subject. I don't claim to know every nuance, but having written over 800 articles on the Prophetic Word, I can claim to understand the basic Plan of God for the end times. I can assert: that the scriptures do not say the Church will be raptured to heaven, Most Prophecy remains unfulfilled, the Jews will not be forgiven and redeemed; We are not in the Millennium now, We are not yet in the new Covenant with God, There will be a new Temple in Jerusalem, There will again be offerings and sacrifices made in the Temple, The Holy Land is our Christian heritage. The dead have no consciousness, The Anti-Christ will not be a Jew. The glorious Return of Jesus will not be unexpected., The Sixth Seal is the next Prophesied event and will commence all the end times. Anyone who believes otherwise is deceived and has failed to comprehend the Truths of Bible Prophecy.

The recent special International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report on Iranian nuclear violations added many points, one being that Iran carried out multiple implosion tests, a key military skill necessary for developing the atomic bomb. Implosion tests do not have civilian nuclear uses. The fact that it carried out various explosive tests also suggests that Iran is further along in other skills needed for developing a nuclear bomb, besides just enriching uranium, than many observers may have thought.

Isaiah 45:8 Rain righteousness, you heavens, let the sky above pour it down, let the earth open for it, so that salvation may flourish and righteousness with it. The Lord will do this. Psalms 50:6, Psalms 140:12-13, Isaiah 1:27 Isaiah 45:9-10 Can we contend with our Maker? Can the pot say to the Potter: What are you making? Or a child ask its parents: What have you brought to birth? Thus, the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says; Ask Me about things to come, concerning My children, the work of My hands. It is I, who made the earth and created mankind upon it. Isaiah 64:8, Jeremiah 18:6 Isaiah 45:18-19 The Lord, He who is God, the Maker of the earth; formed as a place to be inhabited says: I did not speak in secret, out of darkness, I did not say to Jacobs descendants: look for Me in vain. I am God, with Me is victory and salvation. Isaiah 51:13, Isaiah 54:5 Isaiah 45:21-24 Come forward and present your case, who was it that foretold what is to be? Was it not the Lord? There is no God but Me, I am the One who is victorious and able to save. From every corner of the earth, turn to Me and be saved. By Myself, I have sworn My promise of victory and to Me every knee will bow and every tongue will swear, saying: In the Lord alone is righteousness and strength. All who defy Me, will stand ashamed in My presence. 1 Chronicles 29:11, John 3:16 Isaiah 45:20 & 16 Gather together and come near, you survivors of the nations, who in ignorance carry wooden idols in procession, who pray to gods that cannot save. All the idol worshippers will be disgraced, they will perish in their confusion. 2 Kings 17:12, Deuteronomy 32:36-42, Jeremiah 10:1-16, Isaiah 66:17 Isaiah 45:25 & 17 But all Israel’s descendants will be victorious, they will be found righteous and will glory in the Lord. Israel has been delivered by the Lord for all time, they will never be disgraced or put to shame. Deut. 33:1-5, Jer. 3:23 Ref: REB, NIV, KJV. Some verses abridged At the end of the Church age, there will, at last be righteousness and justice on earth. The first stage will be amongst His people, who will be gathered soon after the worldwide Lord’s Day of wrath occurs. ‘Gather and come near, you survivors of the nations. All the idol worshippers will perish’. Then all the true followers of the Lord, all Jacob/Israel’s descendants, be they ethnic or grafted in, will enter and live in the Land. Ezekiel 34:11-31, Jeremiah 23:3, Zechariah 10:8-10 Later will come the worldwide Kingdom of Jesus on earth, to Him ‘every knee will bow’. Then, finally, will come the ‘New Heavens and New Earth’’. Revelation 21:1-26

John 14:1-3 Set your troubled hearts at rest. Trust in God, trust also in Me. There are many dwelling places in My Fathers House…..and if I go and prepare a place for you, I shall come again and take you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also. He has built those "mansions" on earth. The "Father's House" , where the "rooms' are prepared, is a reference to the temple’ of the Lord’ s Christian believers during this Church age. 1Timothy 3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how you ought to behave yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. God dwells in the church in the person of the Holy Spirit. Before he departed, Jesus said that he must go away (to heaven) so that he could send the Holy Spirit to us. John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. In essence, Jesus had to go away to heaven, so that the Holy Spirit could come and dwell in his House on earth, which is now the Church. And as soon as this process began, Jesus 'returned' back to us via the Holy Spirit. If you will read beyond vs 3 in John 14, you will see this is what he meant. The 'mansion' is again mentioned in vs 23, and it's whereabouts is identified. See the word "abode" underlined below in vs 23? It is the same greek word G3438 rendered as "mansions" in vs 2. John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. The abode/mansion is inside the believer now. The believer is a part of the church/Father's House. Jesus 'returns' to dwell inside each believer via the Holy Spirit. The many rooms are inside the believers, one room per believer, which corporately add up to be the Father's House, or the Church, as plainly stated in 1Tim 3:15. The word "mansions" sends the imagination of the modern reader fluttering. Yes, the idea of a large palatial home in Heaven sounds wonderful, but that is not at all what is being promised here. In Christ's time the word "mansion" was used to mean a tent. Like the ones the Roman military would use when they were marching as they moved from place to place. A very small, easy to carry dwelling place. A tarp with a stick really. Not very grand. A "mansion" actually became a unit of measurement based on how far the army could march before they set up this tent at night. In the time of the translation of the KJV a mansion had come to mean an apartment house. A house with many dwelling places in it. Thinking that they recognized the message being conferred here, that the Father's house has many dwelling places in it, like an apartment house, they interpretatively translated mone to mansions. But really they just butchered the text to now read as if to say "The Father's House" (an apartment house with many rooms) contains many mansions (apartment houses with many rooms). A mansion as referring to a large palatial single family house is a fairly modern definition. This is classic example of how meanings have changed over the last 400 years. We should ignore ‘mansions’ and substitute the word 'rooms' in vs 2. Then read the rest of the chapter soberly to understand what Jesus is saying. He does a long Q & A on what was said in vs 1- 3 in the rest of the chapter. We don't have to interpret what He says, He plainly tells us the interpretation. \

Jesus was referring to the New Jerusalem, which will appear after the Millennium and the GWT Judgment. Revelation 21 to 22:1-5m describe that wonderful place,

What about the many versions of the rapture to heaven theory? The ideas that Revelation is past history, it is just a Spiritual fable, it is only for the Jews and when Jesus Returns, its all over for Eternity. I've seen them all, but only on Forums like this one, as the average Christian believer simply says: Whatever Lord, bring it on! Which is a very poor attitude, that ignores the over 1/4 of the Bible, of unfulfilled Prophecy. No commentator that I have read, and that is quite a few, has a scenario which accurately fits with all the Prophetic Word.

I has been impossible for anyone to understand the end time Prophesies before now. Daniel 12:4 & 10 Thsis proved by how there is very little, if any consensus between those who write or preach on the Apocalypse, or the end times. Only a few wise leaders will understand. God has made it so most people will be shocked and surprised at events as they happen. This will our test by fire, 1 Peter 4:12, to winnow out the chaff; Matthew 3:12

Actually, God is omnipresent. In the Spiritual dimension. Heaven is God’s Spiritual home. Earth is our physical home. The Lord Jesus, as the Son of God and the Son of man will eventually make Heaven and Earth as one. Ephesians 1:10…everything in heaven and earth will be brought together under one Head; Jesus Christ. Just as the separation between heaven and earth will be forever demolished through Jesus, so too will the separation between God and mankind be removed. Revelation 21:3 Now: the dwelling of God is with men and He will live with them. Zechariah 9:10 The Lord will banish all the things of war, He will proclaim peace to the nations and His rule will extend to the ends of the earth. God’s plan is to make all things as one, to remove the separation between the spiritual and the physical worlds. This is the ultimate plan of God and the finale of secular history. When God walked with Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, it was then a part of heaven, but when they sinned, angels with flaming swords kept mankind out and we await its re-establishment on the renewed earth. Revelation 21 to 22 Will those who will live with Jesus during His Millennial reign, have spiritual bodies? No, because there will be many still alive at His Return, Matthew 24:31 and when He was resurrected, He still ate and drank in a body suited for earthly living. John 21:12 Revelation 20:4-6…the souls of those who were killed for their faith in God, were resurrected and they will reign with Christ for 1000 years… On earth! People who think there is a rapture to heaven, where they believe they will have heavenly, spiritual bodies have failed to understand that God’s purpose from the beginning of humankind, was to establish a place and a people who would display His glory and to share eternal life with Christ. Hebrews 2:14-15, Revelation 22:14 For now, we face daily challenges in our lives and on the world scene, but the knowledge that a regenerated earth is coming should reassure us and give us the right perspective. There is a purpose in all that happens, the injustices and suffering will not last, they are part of the testing process we all must go through. God will make everything right, rewarding those who stood firm and trusted Him in all the trials and temptations of this world. 1 Corinthians 16:13 The people who will live with Jesus in the Millennium period, are being prepared now. Remember, it may not be the proud and self-promoting people who will be chosen, it’s the meek who will inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5 Those people will then be under the benevolent government of the resurrected martyrs, with Jesus as King. Will it be boring to be good all the time? It is wrong to assume sin is exciting and righteousness isn’t. That is the Devil’s lie, his basic strategy, but the reality is that sin robs us of fulfilment, sin doesn’t expand life, it shrinks it and sin’s emptiness inevitably leads to boredom. Where there’s fulfilment, where there’s beauty, where we won’t have to struggle for existence and as God’s mysteries unfold to us, that is the ultimate human utopia: ON EARTH.

Iran has ordered thousands of tons of ballistic missile ingredients from China as part of an effort to rebuild its military capabilities while navigating ongoing nuclear talks with the United States, according to a Wall Street Journal report on Thursday, citing sources familiar with the transactions. The shipments, which are expected to reach Iran in the coming months, include ammonium perchlorate, a key component in the solid propellant used for ballistic missiles. Sources indicated that these materials could potentially fuel hundreds of missiles. The crazy mullahs will try it and the result will be as Psalms 7:12-16 and Psalms 83, describe

What happened when the Revelation was given to John and the several other Biblical accounts of individuals going to heaven; always only temp0roraly, in no way proves a general rapture of the Church to heaven. We have our appointed tasks to do here, Matthew 28:19-20 - until Jesus Returns.

To think the 'he' of Daniel 9:27, is Jesus, the Messiah, is wrong because the "prince' referred to in verse 26, who destroyed the city and Sancturary in 70 AD, is manifested by the man who will put a stop to the Temple worship. In the end times fulfilment of 2 Thess 2:4 Both are leaders of a Roman type government. The Bible never, ever says that the Lord will take His people to heaven. We are made by Hm to inhabit the earth and nowhere else. After the Judgment, Rev 20:11-15, THEN; those worthy will receive immortality and will inhabit the New Earth; Rev 21 I have deleted my further comments, as being too personal. However, let me reiterate that we will all be Judged for what we have taught and promoted. Right and correct teaching will be rewarded and wrong and incorrect teaching, saved only by passing thru fire. 1 Corinthians 3:13-14

It cannot be that we all must learn the ancient languages to understand the Bible. From what I see, those who quote ancient words and concepts, are the worst perpetrators of error and confusion. Your long winded posts are an example. We should thank the Lord for the Bible in or own language and the dedicated translators for their work. What pretentious nonsense! 'he', is not the Messiah - in Daniel 9:27.

I base my interpretation of Daniel 9:27 on the entire Bible narrative of God's Plans for His faithful peoples. Being pedantic about exact meanings of ancient words, is a dead end rabbit trail. It is well known that Hebrew especially; must be understood in all of its context. AND with the correct discernment. That is: without pre-conceived beliefs. You could write out that verse and tell us who you think are the participants of this 'covenant/agreement are, and whether the Prophecy in 2 Thess 2:4, parallels it.

The historical record and scripture: The Roman Empire – [Julius Caesar] Daniel 2:32-33 & 40 Finally there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron, it will dominate all the others, but as its legs represent, this will be a divided kingdom – its people will be a mixture, it will not remain united. [The Western and Eastern Roman Empires] Daniel 7:7a & 23 The fourth beast, fearsome and very powerful with great iron teeth, crushed and devoured its victims, then trampled what was left. Daniel 9:26 After sixty two weeks, [434 years] the anointed Prince, [Jesus] will be removed and the army [of Rome] will destroy the city and the Temple. [As fulfilled in 70AD.] The Fourth Kingdom: A Last Days resurgence of Rome – [the rise of the 'beast'; the Anti Christ] Daniel 2:33 & 42-43...its feet of part iron and part clay.... Daniel 7:7b-8 ... the fourth beast had ten horns, another horn grew up and uprooted three of the ten. That other horn was very imposing and spoke with great power. As I watched this horn waged war on the holy ones and defeated them. Rev 17:12-13, Rev 13:5-8 Daniel 7:23-24 The explanation is this: This fourth kingdom will take over the whole earth, [The One World Government] The ten horns signify the ten divisions of the world, but another man will arise and defeat three of the first leaders. [ Revelation 13:1-4] Daniel 11:21 Another king will come, a person not worthy of recognition, but he will seize power by intrigue and cunning. [a clever and charismatic man] Daniel 8:23-25 In the last days, when sin is at its height, a powerful king and a master of strategy will arise. He will succeed in whatever he does and will take control of the nations and the holy people. [all the faithful Christians, gathered in all of the holy Land] By cunning and deceit, he will destroy many when they felt secure and did not expect it. He will challenge the ‘Prince of princes’, [the Lord] yet he will be defeated, but not by human hand. Daniel 9:27 The prince, [The world leader, descended from Rome] will make a treaty with many, [that is: not all of the Christians] for one week, [that is: seven years] but at the mid point, he will put a stop to the sacrifices and offerings. [in the new Temple] He will place an ‘abomination’ there, then in the end what has been decreed will come on him. Daniel 7:25 He will defy God and take control of the holy people for 3½ years. [This is the ‘beast’ of Revelation 13:1-8. The One World leader receives a ‘mortal blow’ and his body is taken over by Satan, commencing the ‘forty two months’ Tribulation period] Daniel 11:22-45 His army will be victorious and a leader of the Covenant people will be killed. The military forces of the South will be defeated and he will invade the Middle East, but ships of the Western nations will oppose him, so he will turn back. In the holy Land, he will vent his fury against the people who hold to the Covenant, but will show favour to those who forsake it by believing his promises. His soldiers will desecrate the Temple, setting up an ‘abomination of desolation’. Those of the Lord’s people [Christians] who remain faithful to the Lord, will be resolute and take action. Wise leaders of the nation will guide their people, though for a time some may be killed or captured. They will receive a little help, as many who join them are insincere. This is a period of testing, of refining and purification, for the end is yet to be; at the appointed time. Daniel 7:9, Daniel 8:22, Rev. 13:8 Daniel 11:36-45 This powerful world ruler will do as he pleases, he will promote himself as god, [2 Thess 2:4] uttering terrible blasphemies. Things will go well for him until the time of wrath is completed. [The Tribulation] Near the end, the leader of a Southern confederation will attempt to attack him, so he storms out in full force, sweeping all before him, including the holy Land. He will take control of all Arabia and take their treasure. Then, alarmed by rumours from the North and East, he will hurriedly go back to Israel and camp in the valley of Megiddo, where he will meet his end. [at Armageddon] Daniel 7:11, Revelation 19:17-21 Next: The Kingdom of Jesus – 2 Samuel 22

Just the 'rapture to heaven' theory is enough:- pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib, or cover all options and say: Anytime Lord; I'm ready! Shows the foolishness and confusion of prophecy 'experts'. The 7000 year Plan of God for His Creation is proved by the exact period of 2000 years - Adam to Abram, 2000 years Abraham to Jesus, now almost 2000 years Jesus to His Return, then the final thousand years of Sabbath rest for the world. As set out in the Genesis Creation story, of 7 tranches of Gods timing. I meant, obviously; all the unfulfilled Prophesies. Although it can be said there were 10 divisions of the ancient Roman Empire, they were not concurrent, but consecutive, which does not fit with Daniel or Revelation.

Hebrew 1:1-2 ......but in this final age God has spoken to us by His Son......Revised English Bible It just isn't credible to think the last days were in the first century.

THE LORDS WRATH – how will it happen? This much prophesied, still to come, Lords Day of vengeance and wrath – will happen at the same time as an attack against Israel. Psalms 7:12-16, Psalms 83, Micah 4:11-12 People think there may be a nuclear exchange, but what is more certain is what the prophets say: Jeremiah 50:25 The Lord opens His armoury and brings forth the weapons of His wrath, for this is His work to be done in the lands of the godless peoples. Deuteronomy 32:34-43 Isaiah 34:5 For My sword appears in heaven, it descends in judgement……. Psalm 11:4-6 The Lord is in heaven, raining fiery coals onto the wicked. …… Isaiah 66:15-16 See, the Lord is coming in fire, like a whirlwind. He will judge with fire, His sword will test mankind and many will be slain by Him. Isaiah 33:10-12 Now I shall arise, says the Lord, I will exalt Myself. You will be as chaff and stubble, a wind like fire will consume you. Whole nations will be heaps of white ash, like thorns cut down and set on fire. Psalm 144:5-6 Lord, part the heavens. Make lightning flashes far and wide. Isaiah 30:30 Then the Lord will make His voice heard in majesty...descending in fierce anger with devouring flames of fire amid storms and hail. Jeremiah 30:23-24 See what a scorching wind has gone out from God, a sweeping whirlwind which whirls around the heads of the wicked. The Lords fierce anger is not to be turned aside until He has fully accomplished His purposes. In Days to come you will understand. Isaiah 29:5-6 Yet, the horde of Your enemies will crumble into dust, fly away like chaff. Suddenly in an instant punishment will come from the Lord, with storms, thunder, earthquakes and great noise and a flame of devouring fire. 2 Peter 3:7 Isaiah 9:19 The land is scorched by the Lord, the people are like fuel for the fire. Isaiah 10:17 The Light of Israel will become a fire, its Holy One a flame, which, in one day will burn up and consume His thorns and briars. Isaiah 30:26-30 On the Day that the Lord saves His people, the sun will shine with seven times its usual brightness and the moon will be as bright as the sun…… See; the Lord comes from afar, His anger blazing and His doom heavy. His lips are charged with wrath and His tongue is a devouring fire. His breath is like a torrent in spate. He sieves out the nations for destruction. Isaiah 63:1-6 What these (and many other) prophecies, seem to be describing is sunspot activity. Maybe the sun is building up to a huge Coronal Mass Ejection, something we do experience with minor CME’s. They happen very suddenly and unexpectedly, reaching earth within hours and are capable of causing enormous damage and deaths worldwide. All electrical and communications systems, industry, transport; our modern infrastructure could be destroyed, or at least severely damaged. Armies would be back to 1800’s technology. A CME explosion of the suns surface, as described in Isaiah 30:26, with the sun flashing 7 times brighter, would be one of unprecedented magnitude and would literally cause all the graphically Prophesied effects. For example; the moon would shine bright red as it reflects this suns explosive flash, plus a thermoluminescent reaction between the metallic oxides of the moon with the superheated Hydrogen mass and our satellites would crash to the earth, like ripe figs falling.

Just the proliferation of ideas, theories and flat out guesswork, of the self proclaimed experts on the Prophetic Word, is enough to prove my point. The last days must be the Last Days, not 2000 years. The truth of God's 7000 year Plan for mankind, can be proved by the addition of the time periods given in the Bible and we are now almost at the 6000 year mark, when Jesus will Return and reign for the final 1000 years. The ten toes of King Neb's statue remain unfulfilled. What is described in Daniel 7:23-25 and Revelation 17:12-14, has not yet happened. I promote what the Prophets actually tell us. Rather than objecting to my refutations of peoples pet ideas, look forward to the great Promises of God to His faithful peoples.

The quarterly IAEA report, estimated that as of May 17, Iran’s overall stockpile of enriched uranium — which includes uranium enriched to lower levels — stood at 9,247.6 kilograms. That's an increase of 953.2 kilograms since February's report. Iran has maintained its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only, but the IAEA chief, Rafael Mariano Grossi, has warned that Tehran has enough uranium enriched to near-weapons-grade levels to make “several” nuclear bombs if it chose to do so. Iranian officials have increasingly suggested that Tehran is capable of making an atomic bomb. Jeremiah 49:35......I will break the 'bow' of Elam, the chief weapon of their might.

Two scriptures say why we should not take notice of any interpretation of the Prophesies, before now:- Daniel 12:9-10....seal the Book until the time of the end....then only a few wise leaders will understand. Matthew 11:25 I thank You; Father,,,,for hiding these things, [the Prophesies] from the learned and wise...... Also, those who have chosen to believe false theories and unscriptural doctrines, will be locked into them; Isaiah 29:9-12 and even the Lords servants can be deceived. Isaiah 42:18-20

Yes, because we do have an amazing future. All who love the Lord and keep His Commandments, will experience great end time events and will be blessed as they go to live in the Holy Land.

The Iranian people are ready for something to happen. They are pleading Western leaders to help end their national captivity. They have begun to come to the streets to demonstrate this, and against the regime, and will continue to do so by the millions. The West must not betray them again as Presidents Obama and Biden did, or miss this historic opportunity. The Islamic Republic of Iran, is weeks away from being able to create a nuclear weapon, the US and Western powers are weeks away (at most) from the inevitable need to pull the trigger and strike Iranian nuclear facilities, forever ensuring that they can no longer threaten the world with nuclear weapons. The West, led by the US, must strike IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps) facilities and leaders, its stockpile of ballistic missiles and their ability to produce them, and the ayatollahs themselves. It’s time to strike Iran strategically, creating an opportunity for the brave Iranian people to overthrow the regime, reclaim their country, and install Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi as a leader who can guide Iran toward a peaceful and prosperous future. ISRAEL365 NEWS But we who read and study the Prophetic Word, know that there won’t be a humanly agreed settlement of this Issue as it is a Spiritually based conflict, that started between Isaac and Ishmael. Over 100 Bible Prophesies inform us that the Lord will act once again in His Creation. Not with water this time, but by fire and devastating earthquakes, storms and tsunamis. The world will never be the same again.

Psalms 97:1 The Lord reigns, let all the earth rejoice. Righteousness and justice are the foundations of His throne. Psalms 97:2-12 Cloud and thick mist enfolds Him. Fire goes ahead and consumes His enemies all around. His lightning flashes light up all the world and the earth quakes. Mountains melt like wax at His approach, God, the Maker of all things. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all the peoples look to His glory. Those who worship idols will be shamed – worship God, all you gods! Zion hears and rejoices, all the towns of Judah are glad at your judgements. For You, are the Most High over all the earth. The Lord loves those who hate evil and He keeps His loyal servants safe. He rescues them from the power of the wicked. Light comes upon His people and joy comes to the upright in heart. Rejoice in your God, all you that are righteous and praise His Holy Name. Psalms 97 is the story in a ‘nutshell’ of what the Lord plans to do in the immediate future of our world: Verse 1 – reminds us of the Lord’s Kingship and His just rule over His creation. Verse 2-5 – Describes literally and accurately the next prophesied event, the Lord’s Day of vengeance and wrath, when He won’t be seen. The Lord will use a seemingly natural disaster, a massive CME to destroy His enemies, those who are living in the Holy Land and those who conspire to attack the State of Israel. Psalms 83, Micah 4:11-12 Verse 6-7 – Tells how the false religions and the idols of our modern age, will be put to shame, that is: discredited and their holy places destroyed. eg; the Dome of the Rock Verse 8-9 All of that area, from the Sea, [Mediterranean] to the Great river, [Euphrates – Numbers 34:1-12] will be cleared and cleansed. Isaiah 66:15-17 Verse 10-12 The Lord will protect and rescue everybody ‘who hates evil’ and those ‘who call on His Name’. Joel 2:32, Acts 2:21 His Spirit will be sent upon them. Ezekiel 36:25-28 They will live in all of that Land promised to the Patriarchs, in peace and prosperity. Isaiah 32:15-20, Ezekiel 34:11-16 Jesus is not present, as He will be later for His Millennial reign. This is clear from Ezekiel 34:30 Thus you will know that I: Y’hovah, your God, am with you and that you are My people. This is stated by Ezekiel 36 times. By His deeds, we will know Him. Isaiah 6:11-13 I asked the Lord: How long? [Before the redemption of His people] He answered; Until the Land and cities are ruined and deserted, the houses unoccupied. The Lord will drive the population far away and the country will be one vast desolation. [All the holy Land] Even though a tenth of the people remain, they too, will be destroyed until only a stump remains, but that will become a holy seed. The current population of the Holy Land will be virtually wiped out by the Lord’s Day of vengeance and wrath and of the remainder, only a remnant will survive, to ‘become a holy seed’ of the House of Judah. Their kinsmen; the House of Israel, now every faithful Christian person, will then join them. Ezekiel 37 Ref; REB. Some verses abridged. logostelos.info

Yes. There is only one people of God and the Jewslost their status when they rejected Jesus. Matthew 21:43 Who are the true Israelites of God? Who are the legitimate heirs of God’s promises? It cannot be just those who claim to be descendants of Jacob/ Judah, such as the citizens of the modern State of Israel, or the many people groups who assert they are the ‘lost tribes’, etc. The true Israelites of God are those individuals who meet the Covenant conditions, who by belief in God and in their moral and ethical behaviour, prove they belong to Him. 1 Peter 2:9-10 It was always possible for foreigners to become an Israelite, therefore parentage and actual descent is irrelevant: Leviticus 19:33-34…foreigners are to be treated as native born among you….. Isaiah 56:1-8….foreigners who give their allegiance to Me will be acceptable in My House of Prayer…..I shall add them to those who are already gathered. Jesus said: Other sheep I must gather….John 19:16 and the Apostles made it clear that it is only by righteousness and faith that anyone is accepted into the House of Israel. Romans 9:6-9, Galatians 3:26-29, Ephesians 2:11-18 So, to determine who qualifies as an Israelite person of God, we know: 1/ They cannot be determined by natural descent from Abraham, or more specifically, from Jacob. Nobody today, has proof of ancestry back to Abraham . However; genetic facts prove that everyone alive today, has some of Abrahams genes. 2/ They cannot become an Israelite by conversion to Judaism. 3/ Any person can become an Israelite of God by faith in Him, obedience to His Laws and the acceptance of the atoning sacrifice of Jesus. John 3:16-17 Jesus is the ‘root and tree trunk’ of Israel. Paul said that the promises made to Abraham were to one Person and they are all ‘yes’ in Christ. Galatians 3:16, 2 Cor. 1:20 So now all we Christians, in Christ as His friends and working with Him, are now the branches of the ‘olive tree’ of the true Israel. Jews have been cut off, but can be grafted back, as individual Christian believers. Bible prophecy proves that only a remnant will do that. Ezekiel 6:1-14, Zechariah 13:7-9, Romans 9:27 WE Christians are all true born again people from every tribe, race, nation and language. Romans 2:28-29, Revelation 5:9-10, Isaiah 56:1-8 This truth that: all righteous Christians are the Israel of God, Galatians 6:16, destroys the false ‘rapture to heaven’ theory. Jewish Israel have been broken off from the Olive Tree and can only be grafted back, by having Christian faith. The prophesies about Judah, the Jewish people, are clear: only a remnant will survive. Isaiah 6:13, Luke 19:27. Romans 9:27 They have set up their own religion and refuse to acknowledge Jesus. Romans 10:1-4 It will be all the true, righteous Christian people that will inherit the holy Land and they are the people who will display God’s glory and be His witnesses to the nations, in the last few years before Jesus Returns. Ezekiel 39:21-29, Isaiah 66:18b-21, Isaiah 49:8-13, Ephesians 1:11, Romans 9:24-26

Paul made it clear who a real Jew is; Romans 2:29 ALL the rest, who are mostly citizens of the Jewish State of Israel, are wannabees and now face the Lords punishment, from which not many will survive, Isaiah 29:1-4 The theory of a general Jewish conversion and redemption is false and is never said to happen in the Bible. Zephaniah 1:1-18, Amos 2:4-5
