💚 കേരളം Kerala ❤ The Malabar coast was and still a melting pot of diversity. We have 2000 years old Aramaic Christian community(Aramaic is the liturgical language) called MarThoma Nasranis(Saint Thomas Christians) in Kerala, we have the Muhamedians short after his advent in Arabian Peninsula, we have Jewish settlement from 72AD to till the creation of Israel, and we have great hindu monk Shankaracharya who have set foot from here 8th century AD, we have the world's first democratically elected Communist government in 1956. And thus, today Kerala is the best place to live in India. We embrace the differences… 💚 കേരളം Kerala ❤

@@spiritualtruth1354 *Our understanding of Revelation is incomplete if we don’t understand how Israel is involved.* God chose Israel to be His representatives on earth. They are the people through which the oracles of God would be made known to the world, and it is through Israel that God’s plan of redemption would be executed. God made several eternal promises to Israel, which makes it only natural to expect that Israel would play a key role in the end times, and scripture reveals that they will. In Revelation, we observe the following things about Israel in the end times (see Revelation Overview for explanations of timing): .God will call 144,000 Jews to be sealed as His servants upon the earth (Rev 7:1-8, Rev 14:1-5). .Israel will come under severe attack by the nations for 42 months (Rev 11:2, Rev 12:13). .This attack begins with the abomination of desolation event at the midpoint (Matt 24:15). However, a remnant of Israel will be protected by God during those 42 months of great tribulation (Israel is symbolized by the “woman” in Rev 12:6,13-17). There will be two Jewish witnesses speaking mightily in Jerusalem (Rev 11:3) during those 42 months (or 1,260 days). .They will pronounce plagues upon the earth (Rev 11:6). .The 42 months conclude with the two witnesses being killed by Antichrist (Rev 11:7), but they will be resurrected after 3 1/2 days (Rev 11:11, 12). .God’s wrath upon the earth begins with the bowl events (Rev 16:1), and it concludes with all nations amassing at Armageddon with intent to attack and destroy the remnant of Israel (Rev 16:13-16). Christ, as Israel’s king, will visibly return to defend His people and destroy the nations (Rev 19:11-16). Christ will reign as Israel’s king in Zion during the millennial kingdom (Rev 20:6), and finally there will be a new Jerusalem (Rev 21:10). However, there are many Christians who believe that the nation Israel no longer has any special relevance to God. In their minds, Israel rejected their Messiah, and so God terminated His relationship with them, effectively replacing them with a new group called the “church“. People who hold this view feel compelled to interpret Revelation’s references to Israel in allegorical ways, usually arguing that the references to Israel are really mystical references to the church, which they refer to as “spiritual Israel“. However, the view that the nation Israel is irrelevant cannot be right, and neither are the consequent allegorical interpretations of Revelation. The eternal promises that God made to the nation Israel include prophecies that in the end times, Israel will repent and acknowledge Christ as their Savior, that they will serve God, and they will be protected by God - exactly as Revelation says they will.
