- Today's question is, what is Israel's role in the end times? In this video
- 00:05
- I'll answer that question from a biblical perspective. Then afterwards, as always, I'll share some helpful resources, so stick around until the end.
- 00:21
- Every time there is a conflict in or around Israel, many see it as a sign of the quickly approaching end times.
- 00:29
- The problem with this is that we may eventually tire of the conflict in Israel—so much so that we will not recognize when true, prophetically significant events occur.
- 00:39
- Conflict in Israel is not necessarily a sign of the end times. Conflict in Israel has been a reality whenever Israel has existed as a nation.
- 00:50
- Whether it was the Egyptians, Amalekites, Midianites, Moabites, Ammonites, Amorites, Philistines, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, or Romans, the nation of Israel has always been persecuted by its neighbors.
- 01:04
- Why is this? According to the Bible, it is because God has a special plan for the nation of Israel, and Satan wants to defeat that plan.
- 01:13
- Satanically influenced hatred of Israel, and especially Israel's God, is the reason Israel's neighbors have always wanted to see
- 01:20
- Israel destroyed. Whether it is Sennacherib, king of Assyria, Haman, official of Persia, Hitler, leader of Nazi Germany, or the current president of Iran, attempts to completely destroy
- 01:31
- Israel will always fail. The persecutors of Israel will come and go, but the persecution will remain until the second coming of Christ.
- 01:40
- As a result, conflict in Israel is not a reliable indicator of the soon arrival of the end times.
- 01:46
- However, the Bible does say there will be terrible conflict in Israel during the end times.
- 01:52
- That is why the time period is known as the Tribulation, the Great Tribulation, and the
- 01:57
- Time of Jacob's Troubles, Jeremiah 30, verse 7. Here is what the Bible says about Israel in the end times.
- 02:04
- There will be a mass return of Jews to the land of Israel, Isaiah 43, verse 6.
- 02:11
- The Antichrist will make a seven -year covenant of peace with Israel, Daniel 9, verse 27.
- 02:17
- The temple will be rebuilt in Jerusalem, also Daniel 9, verse 27. The Antichrist will break his covenant with Israel, and worldwide persecution of Israel will result.
- 02:29
- Israel will be invaded, Ezekiel 38 and 39. Israel will finally recognize
- 02:35
- Jesus as their Messiah, Zechariah 12, verse 10. Israel will be regenerated, restored, and regathered,
- 02:43
- Romans 11, verse 26. There is much turmoil in Israel today.
- 02:49
- Israel is persecuted, surrounded by enemies—Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, etc.
- 02:59
- But this hatred and persecution of Israel is only a hint of what will happen in the end times.
- 03:06
- The latest round of persecution began when Israel was reconstituted as a nation in 1948.
- 03:12
- Many Bible prophecy scholars believe the six -day Arab -Israeli war in 1967 was the beginning of the end.
- 03:20
- Could what is taking place in Israel today indicate that the end is near? Yes. Does it necessarily mean the end is near?
- 03:27
- No. Jesus Himself said it best, "...watch out that no one deceives you. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed.
- 03:38
- Such things must happen, but the end is still to come." Matthew 24, verses 4–6.
