Mistaken Prophecy Understanding Concerning the Current Nation of Israel

Mistaken Prophecy of Israel as published on Freedom from Delusion

During the late 30’s and well into the 1940’s, after the issuance of the Balfour Declaration, many Khazarian Ashkenazi Jews from Russia and Eastern Europe migrated into the land of Palestine to prepare for a coming Jewish settlement that was soon to be established. These Khazarian converted Jews, along with Persian converted Jews, formed gangs of terrorists with the intent of ridding the land of Palestinian people who had been living there for several generations. Not even non-military Jews or British people were safe from the terrorist acts. These terrorist groups constitute the invading forces prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39. The only remaining part of the prophecy to be fulfilled will be the destruction of the people of the invasion which will result in the very possible destruction of Jerusalem along with the majority of the state of Israel.

The Founding of the Nation of Israel     Immediately after being recognized by the UN, the terrorist leaders, now statesmen, declared the founding of the nation of Israel in 1948. Prophecy teachers and evangelicals went wild with excitement. They declared that God’s “prophecy clock” had begun to tick away once again. At the time, many believed and declared the tribulation period had begun and the end of the age, including the return of Jesus would happen within seven years. By their prognostication, the rapture was supposed to occur “any day now.” Of course, it did not happen. The tribulation was supposed to begin immediately and last seven years. It was supposed to end with a mass conversion of 144,000 Jews who would become world-wide missionaries. However, it should be noted, the dispensation crowd also contends the Holy Spirit will be removed from the earth during the tribulation period. Thus, the Jew missionaries would be preaching to a world full of people who could not accept Christ under any circumstances, because the Holy Spirit would supposedly have been removed from the earth.

2 Thessalonians 2:7 KJV For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

The “he” who now letteth is considered by dispensation people as the “Holy Spirit”.

There was also a war between Israel and their Arab neighbors in 1948 which gave the appearance this particular view might actually be correct. Since the pre-trib rapture (or any type of rapture) did not occur the pre-tribulation rapture concept began to be discredited as it became apparent that Jesus was not coming to take away the Church people at the beginning of this supposed tribulation. The “mid-tribulation” position gained in popularity, as people speculated the rapture would occur by the end of 1952. However, three and a half years passed without a rapture, the war ended with Israel as the winner, the Jews remained unconverted, and the world remained un-evangelized by 144,000 so called Jewish missionaries.

Evangelical Miscalculations     The evangelical prophecy teachers and preachers should have been highly embarrassed by this colossal misinformation, but rather than discarding this mistaken theory they merely regrouped and recalculated the conjectural timings of their speculation. The questionable teachings had become so popular and ingrained within the minds of Christians, they were able to retrench, telling people their doctrines were still correct, but they simply had been mistaken on timing. Few thought to reexamine the foundations of their prophetic view to see if their premises were faulty.

The Jews have been quite successful convincing the majority of Christians of their Chosen status while the Palestinians, sometimes erroneously termed Edomites, are not considered chosen. This has resulted in many Christian churches to praise the Jewish terrorism as self-defense while denouncing the Palestinians as the terrorists, as if God had a moral double standard. The Israeli Jews have exploited the dispensational beliefs to cause prophetic passion to become more intense.

Many Bible teachers and evangelists will generally maintain that Israeli Jews will bring forth the Fruits of the Kingdom at any time now. However, this is a contradiction of Matthew 21 which clearly states the remnant of Judah would rise again and bring forth more leaves but never any Fruit.

If dispensationalists were not so blinded by their own false assumptions, they could know there will be no wholesale conversion of the Jews. A few Jews have accepted Jesus Christ as the Messiah but the majority will never accept. Many Bible teachers appear to understand the fig tree prophecy as being applicable to the formation of the modern state of Israel, but few seem to actually believe the words of Christ. Jesus was very specific in His curse and in His prophetic statement about the cursed fig tree would not bear fruit, but these curses appear to be overlooked or discarded.

Luke 3:7-9 NET So John said to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, “You offspring of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? (8) Therefore produce fruit that proves your repentance, and don’t begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that God can raise up children for Abraham from these stones! (9) Even now the ax is laid at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”

Matthew 21:19 NET After noticing a fig tree by the road he went to it, but found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, “Never again will there be fruit from you!” And the fig tree withered at once.

The Seventieth Week     The dispensational seven year tribulation teaching is a relatively new idea and it is the internal doctrine and belief of the majority of Christians or church goers. The vast majority of prophecy teachers and students take this concept as an unquestionable belief as they attempt to bend and mold all remaining prophecy around it.

As the main thrust of their doctrine, the dispensational group insist the 70 weeks prophecy of Daniel has one week or seven years remaining that will occur at some point in the future and will be known as the tribulation period.

During the seventh year of Artaxerxes I, Ezra was sent to offer sacrifices at the rebuilt Temple (Ezra 7: 7). This was done by authority of the edict of Artaxerxes I. At that time, Ezra performed the final rite of cleansing in Jerusalem, which allowed Daniel’s 70 weeks to begin the countdown toward the work of Jesus on the Cross. Daniel’s 70th week extended from 26 to 33 A.D. Jesus’ ministry began precisely in the midst of that week, in the fall of 29 A.D., with His baptism on the Day of Atonement. The crucifixion occurred at the end of the week, in the spring of 33 A.D., which was precisely 490 years after Ezra began his journey to Jerusalem. The Crucifixion of Jesus Christ signaled the end of the 70 weeks. There may be some intense tribulation within the next few years, but there is no future week of seven years.
