On Sept. 9, 2024, one of my favorite Bible prophecy teachers, Hal Lindsey, pointed out that God’s promise to give Abraham and his descendants all the Promised Land (see Ezek. 19:7-8) seemed implausible (unreal, unbelievable, unlikely) for many centuries.
Lindsey said,
That is, they seemed implausible… until God started to miraculously fulfill those promises (by causing the dispersed Jews to start returning to the land).
Lindsey asked a rhetorical question:
How can today’s Israel be the renewed nation promised in prophecy?
Lindsey pointed out that the Bible answers this question.
>Israel would be brought back together and to the land. Then, at some point after being brought back, they would experience a national repentance.
>God said, ““ ‘For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. You will live in the land I gave your forefathers; you will be my people, and I will be your God.” (Ezekiel 36:24–28) (Lindsey quoted Ezek. 36:24-25, but I have quoted Ezek. 36:24-28).
Lindsey added, “We don’t know the timing, but the order is clear — return, and then be cleansed.”
Lindsey noted that God repeated this sequence in Ezek. 37 (return to the Promised Land from the heathen nations in unbelief first, repent and be saved later – Ezek. 36:24).
>“Prophesy upon these bones (Israel; see verse 11 below), and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
>So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones (Israel) came together, bone to his bone. And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
>Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
>So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army (Israel became a great army).
>Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts (verse 11).
>Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD” (Ezek. 37:4-14).
Lindsey pointed out that Israel is back in the Promised Land, that they have not gotten saved (received the breath of life) yet, but it is coming.
The next day (Sept. 10, 2024), another one of my favorite Bible prophecy teachers, Jonathan Brentner, wrote,
If I were to select one word that sums up most people today, it would be “unaware.”
Most believers pursue their aspirations with little or no understanding of the times in which they live.
Brentner turned to the Scriptures and something Jesus said about the signs of His coming (Note: Brentner quoted Matt. 24:37-39, but I have added Matt. 24:32-36).
>““Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Matt. 24:32-36).
>“As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.” (Matt. 24:37-39).
Brentner said,
Because the people in Noah’s day didn’t believe his warnings about God’s impending judgment, it was as if they didn’t know about it until it started raining.
Brentner’s point is that most Christians are unaware (not paying attention to Bible prophecy and have little or no knowledge) of the significance of what is happening in Israel.
Just as people were oblivious to the coming flood in Noah’s day until it started to rain, many will be oblivious to the coming Tribulation Period in our day until the Rapture happens.
After almost 2,000 years of being off the Promised Land and scattered to other nations, the return of Israel was implausible, and most Christians (including their pastors) are unaware of the significance of Israel’s return.
Here are some articles that seem to indicate that the end of the age is near.
One, concerning the destruction of Damascus, Syria, in one night at the end of the age (Isa. 17): on Sept. 12, 2024, it was reported that elite Israeli forces helicoptered into Syria and attacked an underground, Iranian-backed Hezbollah facility that reportedly produced surface-to-air missiles and chemical weapons (poison gases).
Israeli troops entered the facility, captured 2 to 4 Iranians who were taken back to Israel for questioning, captured critical equipment and documents, planted explosives, blew up the building, and safely returned to Israel.
(More: On Sept. 15, 2024, it was reported that the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen are deploying forces to Syria in preparation for an attack on Israel.)
(More: According to a U.S. State Dept. Report on Sept. 16, 2024, the Biden administration sidestepped sanctions on Iran in 2023 and increased trade with Iran by 43%. Iran is close to developing nuclear weapons that will be a threat to many nations and is funding several dangerous terrorist groups that are trying to destroy Israel; refers to the U.S. as the Great Satan; and the Biden-Harris State Dept. has increased their income.)
Two, concerning all nations turning against Israel and the decline of America at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, legendary U.S. lawyer, Harvard Law professor, and author Alan Dershowitz said Kamala Harris won the presidential debate with former Pres. Trump and that Israel should prepare for the possibility of a Harris presidency.
Dershowitz added that Israel may receive less support from the U.S. than it has in the past, and Israel may have to become more self-reliant.
(My opinion: Israel must become more Jehovah-reliant.)
(More: On Sept. 12, 2024, it was reported that Canada is blocking $60 million of arms sales to Israel.)
Three, concerning Jerusalem being a cup of trembling and a burdensome stone for the world at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, it was reported that Yahya Sinwar said,
Hamas will continue its resistance until the expulsion of the occupation (Israel) from our land and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
Four, concerning an increase in wars and rumors of wars at the end of the age: on Sept. 12, 2024, Russia’s Pres. Vladimir Putin warned the West and NATO that they will be in a war with Russia if they provide Ukraine with missiles that are used against targets inside Russia.
(More: On Sept. 13, 2024, Russia’s ambassador to the U.N. formally notified the U.N. Security Council that if the US/UK Approved Western Weapons Strikes Deep into Russia – a “State of War” would exist. Ten minutes later, China’s Defense Minister announced that “China will militarily support Russia if NATO attacks Russia.”)
(More: On Sept. 16, 2024, Russia’s Pres. Putin issued a decree to increase the Russian military staffing level to a total of 2,389,130 personnel, including 1,500,000 military personnel. This is an increase of about 180,000 people and the third increase since Russia’s war with Ukraine started.)
(More: On Sept. 17, 2024, it was reported that the death toll in the 2 ½ year Russia-Ukraine war has now reached about one million people.)
Five, concerning wars and rumors of wars and the destruction of Lebanon at the end of the age: following Hezbollah’s barrage of about 40 rockets from Lebanon into Israel on Sept. 15, 2024, it was reported that Israel dropped leaflets on southern Lebanon that said:
Hezbollah is firing from your area; you must leave your homes immediately, move north of the town of Al-Khiam by 4:00 P.M., and do not return until the end of the war. Anyone found in this area after this hour will be considered a terrorist element.
Six, concerning a departure from the faith and a one-world religion at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, Pope Francis said every religion is a way to God.
The Bible says there is only one way (accepting Jesus as one’s Lord and Saviour.).
In 2019, Roman Catholic Bishop Athanasius Schneider accused the Vatican of betraying Jesus Christ as the only Saviour of mankind.
It appears to me that he is right.
Seven, concerning an increase in pestilence and deceit at the end of the age: on Sept. 13, 2024, it was reported that Florida’s Surgeon General advised those 65 and older with underlying health conditions to avoid taking mRNA vaccines because there is a lack of clinical trial data and the fact that the federal government is not requiring producers to demonstrate that the vaccines are effective.
Eight, concerning a worthless peace treaty in the Middle East and the division of Israel: on Sept. 13, 2024, Spain hosted a meeting with E.U. and Muslim nations on ways to implement the two-state solution in the Middle East.
Israel was not invited.
Nine, concerning Jerusalem being a cup of Trembling and a burdensome stone for the entire world at the end of the age: on Sept. 27, 2024, Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu will address the U.N. General Assembly to try to stave off a vote to adopt several proposed anti-Israel resolutions.
Ten, concerning the possible corruption of the FBI and CIA, world government, and the effort to prevent the re-election of Trump at any cost: on Sept. 15, 2024, a long-time Democrat doner and known Trump hater who had a Biden-Harris sticker on his pick-up truck in Hawaii (Ryan Wesley Routh) is under investigation for possibly attempting to assassinate Trump in Florida.
>How can Routh, who has been living in Hawaii with a girlfriend for several years, vote Democrat in N. Carolina if the elections are honest?
>Why was Routh running around freely in the U.S. when he was convicted of possessing a weapon of mass destruction in 2002?
On Sept. 16, 2024, Florida Gov. DeSantis announced that he will not rely on the U.S. government to investigate this incident.
DeSantis posted this on X: Florida will take charge of looking into the matter, stating that the American people deserve the truth.
(FYI: Some people are concerned that this may not be the last attempt on Trump’s life.)
On Sept. 16, 2024, Trump said, “I will never surrender.”
Here is my daily update on the Israel-Hamas war.
Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2024 (Day 341) The two-hundred eighty-sixth day of the resumed war. Day 128 of the attack on Rafah.
A retiring Israeli commander said defeating Hamas could take another year.
Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024 (Day 342) The two-hundred eighty-seventh day of the resumed war. Day 129 of the attack on Rafah.
Israel declared that it has defeated the Hamas military brigade in Rafah.
Friday, Sept. 13, 2024 (Day 343) The two-hundred eighty-eighth day of the resumed war. Day 130 of the attack on Rafah.
Hamas has stolen so much of the humanitarian aid that has been sent to Gaza that it is struggling to find warehouse space to store it.
Saturday, Sept. 14, 2024 (Day 344) The two-hundred eighty-ninth day of the resumed war. Day 131 of the attack on Rafah.
If Israel gets in an all-out war with Hezbollah, Israel may ultimately have to try to wipe out Hezbollah in Lebanon as it has done to Hamas in Gaza.
Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024 (Day 345) The two-hundred ninetieth day of the resumed war. Day 132 of the attack on Rafah.
Monday, Sept. 16, 2024 (Day 346) The two-hundred ninety-first day of the resumed war. Day 133 of the attack on Rafah.
Saudi Arabia said the Biden administration is not doing enough to halt the Houthi attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.
Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2024 (Day 347) The two-hundred ninety-second day of the resumed war. Day 134 of the attack on Rafah.
S. Sec. of State Blinken is back in Egypt to try to draft another ceasefire proposal and get all the hostages released.
Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2024 (Day 348) The two-hundred ninety-third day of the resumed war. Day 135 of the attack on Rafah.
There was a second wave of wireless communication devices (radios, walkie-talkies, cell phones, fingerprint devices, devices powered by solar energy and others) blowing up across Lebanon and especially in Beirut. At least 3 people were killed, and hundreds were injured.
FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.
