ISRAEL IN BIBLE PROPHECY

By Loren Davis

REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY teaches that the Church is Israel. This is unscriptural!

Romans 9:24 “Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?”

Revelation 2:9 “know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.”

PROPHECIES REGARDING THE JEWS RETURNING TO THEIR HOMELAND

Jeremiah 16:15 “But, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob).

Ezekiel 28:25 “Thus saith the Lord God; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.

Ezekiel 38:12 “To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.”

THE PARABLE OF THE FIG TREE

Matthew 24:32-34 “Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.”

• In 1948 ISRAEL BECAME A NATION AGAIN

A PEACE TREATY IS PROPHESIED BETWEEN ISRAEL AND HER ENEMIES

Even from the time of Israel’s rebirth until now, the Mideast has been in turmoil over her. Most nations are against Israel. After many wars and attempts for a peace treaty, a peace treaty (covenant) between Israel and her adversaries is eventually going to come.

Daniel 9:27 Referring to the Antichrist is Daniel says, “And he shall CONFIRM THE COVENANT (Peace Treaty) with many for one week (7 years):”

Daniel 8:25 Referring to the Antichrist it says, “And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and BY PEACE SHALL DESTROY MANY: he shall stand up against the prince of princes (Jesus); but HE SHALL BE BROKEN WITHOUT HAND.”

1 THESSALONIANS 5:3 “AND WHEN THEY SHALL SAY, PEACE AND SAFETY; THEN SUDDEN DESTRUCTION COMETH UPON THEM, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

He will break the covenant, peace treaty with Israel. This will trigger The Battle of Armageddon.

THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON

Revelation 16:14 “For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to GATHER THEM TO THE BATTLE OF THAT GREAT DAY OF GOD ALMIGHTY.”

Revelation 16:16 “And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue ARMAGEDDON.”

Zechariah 14:2-5 “For I will gather ALL NATIONS AGAINST JERUSALEM TO BATTLE;” 3 “Then shall THE LORD GO FORTH, AND FIGHT AGAINST THOSE NATIONS, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west,” “…and the Lord my God shall come, and ALL THE SAINTS with thee.”

Zechariah 14:9 “And THE LORD SHALL BE KING OVER ALL THE EARTH: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.”

Ezekiel 38:8-12 “…in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, AGAINST THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.”

“Thou (Gog/Russia)shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee. Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought: And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely,” 12 “…To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.”

Ezekiel 38:14-17 “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when MY PEOPLE OF ISRAEL dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?”

15 “And thou shalt come from thy place out of the NORTH PARTS (north of Israel), thou, and MANY PEOPLE WITH THEE, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and A MIGHTY ARMY: And thou shalt come up AGAINST MY PEOPLE OF ISRAEL, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against MY land, THAT THE HEATHEN MAY KNOW ME, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.”

17 “Thus saith the Lord God; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days many years that I WOULD BRING THEE AGAINST THEM?

Ezekiel 38:18-19 “And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come AGAINST THE LAND OF ISRAEL, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face. For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be A GREAT SHAKING IN THE LAND OF ISRAEL;”

JESUS IS COMING BACK TO FIGHT THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON WITH ALL OF HIS SAINTS

Jude 14-16 “And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.”

Zech 14:4, I Thess 3:13,

Joel 2:1-11 “Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand; A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march everyone on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks: Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and WHEN THEY FALL UPON THE SWORD, THEY SHALL NOT BE WOUNDED (The saints returning with Christ with their glorified bodies cannot be wounded or killed). They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: AND THE LORD SHALL UTTER HIS VOICE BEFORE HIS ARMY: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?”

Revelation 19:11-16 “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and MAKE WAR. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God (Jesus). And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should SMITE THE NATIONS: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the FIERCENESS AND WRATH OF ALMIGHTY GOD. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, and Lord of Lords.

1 Corinthians 10:26 “For THE EARTH IS THE LORD'S, and the fulness thereof.”
