This is pretty huge news for Christians and Jews:
https://www.unsealed.org/2018/07/breaking-jewish-nation-state-bill.htmlI'm surprised this wasn't in the media.
This is really prophetic. Its going to escalate tensions that are already as high as possible between the Palestinians and Jews, and it makes it official that not only the Jewish homeland was restored, but now 70 years from that date, its the Law that Hebrew is the official language, and Jerusalem is the capital of Israel only.
God's timing is perfect - this alludes to the end of the 70 years since Israel was restored as a nation. It alludes to Damascus being destroyed, the Jews looking for their Antichrist, the US being 'unable' to help her friend (Israel) in a time of distress (possibly because either an EMP or the rapture of the church - because we are not in end time prophecy, except possibly later in revelations as Babylon).
The most interesting paragraph in the whole article is this to me:
"The Israeli government must work to complete ingathering the exiles—a prophetic term pertaining to the end of the age when the dispersed Israelites would return to the land; furthermore, the law makes official Israel's connection to the Diaspora"
and here in the bill:
5 — Ingathering of the exiles :
The state will be open for Jewish immigration and the ingathering of exiles.
This is absolutely fascinating to me, because I've been listening to people who believe that the majority of the Jews around the world have had reasons to go back to Israel (WW2, the Berlin Wall, Russian exodus, etc) but the Jews in the US never left, they like it here, thats because its safe and Christians are nice to them, so why leave? Well thats the big question, the EVENT that is coming (EMP, Russian-China attacks the US, the Antichrist coming on the scene, or the rapture), is what I believe will remove the US, or make it incapable of helping Israel in WW3, and that I believe will cause an exodus back to Israel (for the remaining Jews).
This is a major piece I believe.
No, this is mostly bad. If the major purpose of this is the aliyah,which from your quote it seems to be, then this is being done wrong and in God's eyes, Israel is still a divided nation: Israel and Judea. First Jacob should come back to re-instantiate the tribes. Ephraim is supposed to lead the aliyah of the dispersed Israelites back to Israel.
Here is how it is supposed to be done as in Ezekiel 37:
The word of the LORD came to me: “Son of man, take a stick and write on it, ‘For Judah, and the people of Israel associated with him’; then take another stick and write on it, ‘For Joseph (the stick of Ephraim) and all the house of Israel associated with him.’ And join them one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand. And when your people say to you, ‘Will you not tell us what you mean by these?’ say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am about to take the stick of Joseph (that is in the hand of Ephraim) and the tribes of Israel associated with him. And I will join with it the stick of Judah,e and make them one stick, that they may be one in my hand. When the sticks on which you write are in your hand before their eyes, then say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and bring them to their own land. And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. And one king shall be king over them all, and they shall be no longer two nations, and no longer divided into two kingdoms. They shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols and their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But I will save them from all the backslidings in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
The fact that this isn't being done correctly has literally driven me crazy the entire summer, but I am finally better now. But nobody listens.
You have to see and acknowledge and remember that the Kingdom of Israel was divided into 2 nations, the Kingdom of Israel of the north and the Kingdom of Judea in the south. Ezekiel prophesied how to rejoin the two divided Kingdoms. But Ezekiel started his prophetic visions in Judea and continued after the Judeans were carried off to Babylon. It is important to realize that Jacob would have to come back and re-establish the tribes for his prophecy to be fulfilled: The 10 lost tribes of Reuben, Simeon, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulun, Levi, (Manasseh and Ephraim -tribes of Joseph) were carried off by the Assyrians around 722 BC and assimilated. The Judeans, which included Judah and Benjamin weren't taken until around 597 BC by the Babylonians.
So Ezekiel made his prophecy which has yet to be fulfilled. So what is the aftermath on the divided nation of Israel?
King Cyrus, a Persian, would eventually overthrow the Babylonians and release the captive Judeans back to Israel. So this can be seen as the first aliyah. King Cyrus said the Temple should be rebuilt. So the second Temple was built. Even though the Temple was built, the Jews were only allowed to rule semi-autonomously under Persian and Greek rule. Eventually the Jews revolted against the Selucid Greeks, succeeded in the Maccabean revolt and rededicated the Second Temple. This is how the festival of Hanukkah came to be. The Maccabees success led to the foundation of the Hasmonean Kingdom of Judea which more or less lasted until the eventual intervention and fall to the Romans and the installation of Herod the Great as the King of Israel as a puppet regime of Rome. Finally the Romans destroyed the second Temple in 70 AD.
The point is that political aliyahs have been done before, but it has not led to the lasting permanence of the Jewish Israeli state. There is not much substance to conclude that this political aliyah will not lead Israel to a similar fate as in the past.
God needs to see Israel united as told by the prophet Ezekiel. The promise of this being done correctly is that Israel will never fall again.
Your obviously not following or discerning end-times news or the speaking prophets, and to come to the conclusion its mostly bad shows your ignorance.
I didn't write my prior post to persuade you to believe that this event was the only strong event that lead to the conclusion that we are in the end-times.
There have been signs all around with much stronger evidence that we are very close to the beginning of the tribulation or the rapture.
This is not a personal pulpit for you to argue and attack us based on your personal weak beliefs.
This is for constructive Christian conversation that builds on one another.
