Prophecy Update #460 – The Return Of The Jews

Every Sunday we present a prophecy update.  We show how news and trends in the world corroborate centuries-old prophecies you read in the Bible.

Fully 80% of the Bible’s approximately 2500 prophecies have been fulfilled to the letter.  The prime example I would give, in modern times, is the miraculous rebirth of Israel as a nation in her ancient homeland.

The remaining 20% of yet-to-be fulfilled prophecies have to do with the Last Days in which we are living.

Some of them have to do with Jews who have been scattered all over the earth returning to Israel.

Thus I was excited when I came across an article titled, Netanyahu [says]: Soon Majority of Jews Will Live in Israel.

Before I read a few excerpts, let me define a word used in the article: Aliyah.  It means ascent, and it is used to describe Jews who are dispersed returning to Jerusalem.

Excerpts:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday told an audience celebrating Aliyah Day in Jerusalem that “we are closing fast on the historic moment when the majority of the Jewish nation will be living in Israel.”  The PM added, “I think this is the only way to secure the Jewish State.”

Netanyahu noted that Aliyah continues to be a key factor determining Israel’s destiny.  He pointed out two fundamental reasons for Aliyah: the growing anti-Semitism in several countries, and, most important, “the Zionist fervor.”  He promised that his government will utilize all its offices to bolster Aliyah.

Former director general of the Ministry of Aliyah and Immigration Absorption, MK Oded Forer (Yisrael Beitenu), said emotionally, “The prayer and hope of ‘next year in Jerusalem’ is fulfilled in front of our eyes.”

Another article about the end times and Israel caught my eye.  It was titled, Sanhedrin Asks Putin and Trump to Build Third Temple in Jerusalem.

Excerpts:

The Sanhedrin is calling on Russian President Vladmir Putin and US president-elect Donald Trump to join forces and fulfill their Biblically-mandated roles by rebuilding the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.

Rabbi Hillel Weiss, spokesman for the Sanhedrin, contacted Breaking Israel News to announce that the election of Trump, who has promised to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, coupled with Putin’s expressed desire for the Temple to be rebuilt, prompted the Jewish court to send a letter offering the two the opportunity to act as modern-day Cyrus figures: non-Jewish kings who recognize the importance of Israel and the Temple.

Read your Bible and you will see prophecies about the return of the Jews to their land; and about a third Temple being rebuilt, playing a prominent role in the future Great Tribulation.

Read the news and you see those trends.

We keep in touch with these things, but we are not looking for their fulfillment before Jesus can return for us.

Jesus promised He’d come and resurrect the dead in Christ, and rapture living believers.  There are no prophecies needing to be fulfilled prior to the rapture.  It is presented in the Bible as an imminent event.

Are you ready for the rapture?  If not, get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up.  Ready or not, Jesus is coming!
