Whilst the formation of the State Of Israel did heighten prophetic expectations of many Christians but it should be noted that many Christians apart from Darby, the Plymouth Brethern and Dispensationalists gave predictions prior to 1948 that a national Israel would emerge based on their understanding of scripture. Spurgeon preaching in 1864 on Ezekiel 38: "..first, that there shall be a political restoration of the Jews to their own land and to their own nationality; and then, secondly, there is in the text, and in the context, a most plain declaration, that there shall be a spiritual restoration, a conversion in fact, of the tribes of Israel' J.C Ryle prior to his death in 1900: 'I believe that the Jews shall ultimately be gathered again as a separate nation, restored to their own land, and converted to the faith of Christ, after going through great tribulation'

@@sk8439 Indeed. NTW’’s interpretation that ‘all Israel’ is the church does not give sufficient weight to the fact that Israel has consistently been ethnic Israel prior to this. Israel, or a sizeable remnant seems to be converted at the return of Christ (Roms 11, Zech 14).

The first verse in the Gospel of John where Jesus is given titles (1:49) refers to Jesus as "King of Israel". In Scripture, Israel is understood as owned by God and the Jews are the tenants. Israel has been occupied over the centuries by different groups of people, but Israel remains Israel, and now Israel is once again receiving its people from the diaspora and regaining its land from the occupiers. Luke 21:24 speaks of a definite period of time of gentile occupation of Jerusalem. If Jesus was "King of Israel" when was he stripped of this title and by whom? Who has the authority to remove this title from him?

And what about Zechariah 14?? Before Jesus returns, God calls all the nations surrounding Israel to war against Israel (whom He has regathered to their land), immediately after which Jesus returns & fights against the nations to Jerusalem and lands on the Mnt of Olives where He reigns during the Millennium. In Zech 12:10 God says that on the Day of the Lord Jesus returns (recognisably crucified) to the remnant of unsaved Jews in Jerusalem & pours out a Spirit of grace & supplication on them to induce repentance.

Why did the Apostle John quote from Zech 12:10 at Calvary? Was the Spirit poured out on Jerusalem on the Day of Pentecost? In 2 Thess. 1:7-10 Paul said Christ returns "in flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel. There is no Plan B of salvation based on race in Paul's words. Peter also talks about the fire on the day of the Lord when He comes as a thief in 2 Peter 3:10-13. All races of people need to hear the Gospel now, before it is too late for them. Joh 19:31 Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. Joh 19:32 Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him. Joh 19:33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs. Joh 19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out. Joh 19:35 And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you may believe. Joh 19:36 For these things were done that the Scripture should be fulfilled, "NOT ONE OF HIS BONES SHALL BE BROKEN." Joh 19:37 And again another Scripture says, "THEY SHALL LOOK ON HIM WHOM THEY PIERCED." (NKJV)

The one point we must consider is that the scriptures say what will happen, how God will drag the nations to his day with hooks through their jaws. But it does not say that the administrations running Israel today are the good guys. In fact, scriptures suggest Israel in general will abide in falsehood, will choose a false messiah and have a false peace, which will result in tragedy.

John 19:34 establishes that Jesus was indeed crucified, but the reaction (mourning throughout Jerusalem) of Zech 12:10 happens at a future date. There's no way you can read Zechariah 12 and come out thinking that was fulfilled in it's entirety 2000 years ago. What do you think? So Calvary happens 2000 years ago but in the end times Jesus appears and the Jews are forced reflect on the famous event 2000 years ago and are overcome with grief for having missed Calvary and the Messiah..

If replacement theology is the basis of your view then his views make sense. He ignores various text that do not fit with his replacement view. The proof is in full view as predicted by the bible that the Jews will be back in Israel and as it says in Romans 11, the vail will be removed and they will acknowledge Jesus. On this specific text NT has acknowledges previously that he could not explain this text, the reason being it contradicts his theology. At this time we are seeing the exact fulfilment of the theology that various text state that the Jews will be back in Israel and will recognise Jesus as the true messiah. Sadly the CofE is dying on the vine, the average attendance at a CofE is 33 and 1 child.

Hello there. I again think this is a very clear example of intellectual thinking not necessarily leading us to a clearer understanding of God's Word. I was introduced to NT Wright by a friend and although I was quite keen at first, I soon found that I couldn't agree with many of his interpretations of Scripture. I think his exegesis has become far too academic. It's the Holy Spirit that gives us insight into God's Word not academia. A deeper understsnding of Scripture does not primarily come through intense study, but only as God opens our spiritual eyes by the power of His Holy Spirit. Sadly, I think NT Wright has gone too far down this intellectual path which ends up leading people away from the specific truth of God's Word. Thankfully, God doesn't exclude any of us from gaining spiritual insight, and that is not through academic study, but the very simple things that all men can access - a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and following the instructions He gives us in His Word. Seek the Lord with all of your heart and you will surely find him. Hence the need for the Gafcon Movement, the global family for faithful Anglicans seeking to stay true to God's Word whilst fulfilling the Great Commission. Much of the Church of England seems to be at death's doors and it isn't surprising. I thank God for Gafcon. I love Ben Kwashi and others like him. Men filled with the Holy Spirit fire of God. With parents from Jamaica, I was brought up in a home where the Bible was always the final authority. I love the Scriptures. I find listening to men such as NT Wright interesting, but it doesn't hit that part of me that comes alive to the Word of God. It's more like listening to an educational lecture. I find that when God stirs my heart by His Holy Spirit and as I seek Him reading His Word, it's a completely different experience. I believe that God is the greatest Zionist of all time. I would say it is for each individual believer to seek God personally for revelation on such things. Of course, listen to what is said by other sincere believers, but don't take anyone else's word as being the final authority. Go to God's Word for yourself and ask for His insight. I think that the majority of Christian believers who stand with Israel have had that laid on their heart by the Lord. It isn't something they have just conjured up for themselves. Personally, I know that as I read my Bible and pray, it has become clearly evident to me that I have a duty to pray for the peace of Jerusalem which will only be achieved when Jesus returns, and to do what I can to be a blessing to Israel as God's Word instructs us. I don't believe in replacement theology. I see no where in the Bible where the church, the bride of Christ, replaces Israel. I think every believer should devote much time to prayer on this issue.

The fact that Ezekiel 48’s prophecy about the return of Israel also includes language referring to specific tribes and their individual boundaries within the traditional holy land makes it very difficult to interpret this as if it had some analogue to, and fulfillment in, the Gentile Christians. Whereas, references to Israel as a whole are easy and logical to connect to Christians.

What is interesting about that Ezek 48 vision is that it is nowhere to be seen in the new testament. It includes sacrifices and other elements that are ruled out by the new testament. If it was ever to become a physical reality, you would assume it would be mentioned in Daniel or Revelation. The closest n.t. reference would be the New Jerusalem descending to the new earth in the end of Revelation. Peter says that believers are being built into a spiritual house. Hebrews confirms that we are not looking for an earthly city other than what is shown in Rev 21-22.

And they took possession of it, and they settled there.44 And the Lord gave them rest on every side just as he had sworn to their fathers. Not one of all their enemies had withstood them, for the Lord had given all their enemies into their hands. 45 Not one word of all the good promises that the Lord had made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass.” Josh 21:43-45 “21 You brought your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and outstretched arm, and with great terror. 22 And you gave them this land, which you swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey. 23 And they entered and took possession of it. But they did not obey your voice or walk in your law. They did nothing of all you commanded them to do. Therefore you have made all this disaster come upon them.” Jer 32:21-23 “20 Judah and Israel were as many as the sand by the sea. They ate and drank and were happy. 21 Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates to the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.“ 1 Kings 4:20-21 56 “Blessed be the Lord who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised. Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant.” 1 Kings 8:56 8 You found his heart faithful before you, and made with him the covenant to give to his offspring the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite. And you have kept your promise, for you are righteous.” Nehemiah 9:8 42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham, his servant. 43 So he brought his people out with joy, his chosen ones with singing. 44 And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples’ toil, 45 that they might keep his statutes and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!” Psalm 105:42-45 19 And after destroying seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.” Acts 13:19 (physical land promise fulfilled) “ 32 And we bring you the good news that what God promised to the fathers, 33 this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus, as also it is written in the second Psalm, “‘You are my Son, today I have begotten you.’ Acts 13:32-33 (TRUE land promise fulfilled)

Jesus is God so why would he replace the covenant he made with Abraham in Gen 15 and why do so many in the church think that Gen 15:18-21 has come to pass in Jesus when this is a irrevocable covenant.

NT Wright sounds like he may have taken a large dose of replacement theology. Ever seeing but not believing. A useful question I think to ask is: "What do you understand of the word "Israel" in modern or ancient times?" If his definition is anything but a nation then ask how this compares to his understanding of "Egpyt", "Ethiopia", "Syria", "Jordan", "France", "Russia", "China" or any other nation in the world past or present? If he accepts Israel is a nation then what exactly is Paul talking about for the future of this nation in Romans 9-11?

I'd strongly encourage you to read his entire argument (for Romans 9-11) in the New Interpreters Commentary series. He articulates things very clearly. Wright's is not a "replacement theology" where (in caricature), Israel (Jews) largely failed in their role as God's covenant people, so God replaced them with the (Gentile) Church. Wright shows that (for Paul), Jesus is the one true Covenantally-faithful Israelite. He is the Israel that never was. He is Israel returned from exile. Simultaneously, he is also the divine presence returning to ethnic Israel, attempting to draw the people back to their Covenant God. Jesus gathers around himself **twelve JEWISH men, as a core of his relaunching of Israel in order to bless the world (i.e. Genesis 12). Then from him and them, *both* Jews and Gentiles are drawn into that renewed (not wholly *new*) Covenant through Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. In Galatians 6.16, Paul calls the Church (composed of both Jews and Gentiles), the "Israel of God." Likewise, Wright concludes that in Romans, Paul can use the term "Israel" to speak *both* of ethnic Israel, but also of the Jew+Gentile Church. And that is what he is doing in Romans 9-11. In his conclusion that "all *Israel* will be saved," Paul is saying that all those who accept Jesus as Messiah (both Jew and Gentile) will be counted among God's Covenant people. That is the shorthand of it, but Wright makes a much more thorough argument in his commentary. Again, I would strongly recommend you consult it.

NTW says that everything is fulfilled in Jesus Christ (or something like that), as if nothing is left for physical Israel, but read what Jesus Himself said when prophesying the destruction of Jerusalem (which came true in 70 and 132 AD): Luke 21: 22 for these are days of vengeance, *to fulfill all that is written.* 23 Alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the earth and *wrath against this people.* 24 They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive among all nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Physical Israel in Jesus' time was still to *fulfill ALL that is written!* About what? About the wrath against them! Written where? Where else?? Of course in the Scripture, which, in Jesus' time, only the Old Testament books were in existence. Leviticus 26 is among them.. the punishment, sevenfold four times over... which translated into almost 2000 years of exile and destruction and persecution of the physical Israel in the land of their enemies, as God said... far longer than the mere 70 years exile to Babylon, why? Because of their rejection of the promised New Covenant (Jer 31:31) brought by Jesus the Christ (not for killing Jesus, though, but for continually rejecting the NC). However, is that all that is written about that people? NOPE!!! Leviticus 26 ended with God remembering His covenant with their ancestors. The prophets, Ezekiel 36-37 is full of prophecy of their return, as well as many other passages in the other prophets. ALL OF THESE are to be fulfilled as Jesus said, and most of them have been fulfilled with the return of the house of Jacob, the culmination of which will be the fulfillment of this prophecy by Gabriel, which would be the fulfillment of the Davidic Covenant (between God and David): Luke 1: 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the *Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David,* 33 and *he will reign over the house of Jacob forever,* and of his kingdom there will be no end.” That is why the opposition against Israel's return and possession of their own land is sooo strong, because when Jesus Christ comes back, the reign of Satan on the world will end! (Rev 19-20), and thus, Satan is working sooo very hard to prevent that from happening, using his armies of Muslims (the largest Antichrist body in the world), because if there is no subject/people, there will be no King, and if there is no land for the kingdom, there will be no King. However, King Jesus will win!! Ever wonder why Rev 19 says that when Jesus comes back from heaven riding His white horse with the armies of heaven, there will be large armies on earth gathered to make war against Him? Rev 19:19 And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army. That scenario is already playing out now.. and if you stand with Palestine.. that means you are standing with the armies that will be making war against King Jesus Christ!

I love NT Wright and agree with his eschatological take of the land and temple. Jesus clearly points to Himself as the fulfillment and expansion of God’s reign extending to the entirety of the world, as He becomes the locus of the new Ezekiel temple. I also understand the very thin line he is trying to walk in not denying the atrocities of the holocaust against the Jewish people. However, his response about putting the Jewish people back into their ancestral home as a means to right a wrong, ignores the Imperial British agenda that was quite nefarious at the time, and the very real deceptions and double-dealing the Brits pulled off post World War 2. The Brits were allied with the Arabs against the Ottomans in WW1 and then pulled them into fighting against the axis forces with the promise that they would then support regional Arab autonomy and rule. They double crossed the Arab nations, carved up the lands, instilled their own puppet rulers, and all to exploit their oil riches. The fact that they then gave a portion of the land to the Jewish people and armed them to the teeth against the Arabs was a massive betrayal and has created generations of atrocities ever since. The real problem with the myth of “the holy land” and the “dispensational story” placed atop the actual history of the region, only manages to perpetuate the dehumanization of an entire Arab speaking population, conveniently allowing western powers to continue to obtain the mineral resources (ie oil and gas) of the region on the cheap. The return of the Jews is not God’s story of redemption at work in the world, this is the empire’s twisting of truth to suit its own insatiable appetite for power. The veracity of this statement is in the fact that the region has remained at war with itself for the last 80 years, while the empires gobble up its best resources. A tree is known by its fruits. If this were really God’s plan on action, we’d see a lot more reconciliation of Isaac with Ishmael, and a lot less bloodshed and violence.

​@@OnlyVisitingU Maybe the word 'nation' needs to be clarified here. There was no political entity called 'Israel' at the time. 'Israel' as described in the Bible is not fundamentally a land but a people. So a phrase like 'the cities of Israel' can still be used, but it's equivalent to 'the cities inhabited by Israel', rather than a strictly political border along geographic lines. 'Israel' are the spiritual heirs of Abraham. So modern Christians and Jews will disagree as to what this term describes today. In Jesus' time, the city of Jerusalem was not in the kingdom of Israel but the kingdom of Judea (from which we get the word 'Jew').

Henry Sulley, an English architect and Christadelphian writer, authored "The Temple of Ezekiel's Prophecy" in 1887. In this work, he provided a detailed architectural analysis of the temple vision described in Ezekiel chapters 40-48. Sulley combined his architectural expertise with biblical exegesis to create detailed illustrations and descriptions of the envisioned temple, aiming to offer readers a tangible understanding of Ezekiel. Beyond the architectural focus, Sulley interpreted Ezekiel's temple vision as a prophecy indicating the future restoration of Israel as a physical and political nation. He argued that the detailed temple plans symbolized a literal future event-the re-establishment of Israel and the construction of a new temple in Jerusalem. This interpretation was grounded in his Christadelphian beliefs, which emphasized a literal understanding of biblical prophecies concerning Israel's restoration. Sulley's conviction in the literal fulfillment of these prophecies led him to predict the re-establishment of the nation of Israel. Remarkably, this prediction came decades before the actual founding of the State of Israel in 1948. His analysis was based on a combination of scriptural interpretation and the geopolitical context of his time, where he observed movements and sentiments favoring the return of Jewish people to their ancestral homeland. In summary, Henry Sulley's examination of Ezekiel's temple was both an architectural study and a prophetic interpretation. He believed that the detailed vision in Ezekiel signified a future, literal restoration of Israel, including the rebuilding of the temple, a belief that anticipated the actual re-establishment of Israel as a nation in the mid-20th century.

Yes Tom, Jesus is going to physically be here as you say, and when he is where do you think he is going to live?? Maybe where he said he would to abraham, isaac and Jacob! Eden is the model, and water will flow from a renewed Jerusalem into all the world. Yeehaa

From a 11/22/2014 Facebook post by Dr. Michael Brown One of my favorite Spurgeon quotes on Israel: "I think we do not attach sufficient importance to the restoration of the Jews. We do not think enough about it. But certainly, if there is anything promised in the Bible it is this. I imagine that you cannot read the Bible without seeing clearly that there is to be an actual restoration of the Children of Israel . . . For when the Jews are restored, the fullness of the Gentiles shall be gathered in; and as soon as they return, then Jesus will come upon Mount Zion with his ancients gloriously, and the halcyon days of the millennium shall then dawn; we shall then know every man to be a brother and a friend; Christ shall rule with universal sway." And then one from D. M. Lloyd-Jones: "It is remarkable that, although they (the Jews) were without their country for so many centuries, and nations did their utmost to destroy them completely, this nation has been preserved. The only real explanation of this is that God has not finished with them and that there is a day coming when this 'fullness of Israel' is going to be brought back to salvation, back into the Christian church, and so God's ultimate promise to Abraham is going to receive a wonderful fulfillment."

Joshua in Portland… if you see the Scriptures are not divided in dispensations but progressive covenants, you will come to understand and love with new appreciation, the New Covenant (fulfillment of the Everlasting Covenant). You will see it with new eyes and so also, read the Scriptures with proper understanding. When you understand that so much of words & ministry were a “last call” to Jews who had forsaken the Mosaic Covenant a final time. Jesus brought His Kingdom, not a reinstitution of physical Judah and Israel, to them. Unless they were to be born again as He told Nicodemus, they would be lost. The significance of the Temple veil being torn in two is HUGE.
@ays5696

It posted before I finished… it signified and spoke loudly, by the finger of God, that the Old Covenant was finished. Jesus prosecuted, so to say, the last lawsuit against the Jews. He’d prosecuted others as laid out by the prophets and followed with exiles. In 70 AD, the final judgment was executed with the destruction of the temple. The nation had not had a Davidic king since their last exile and scattering. To enter His Kingdom from the Resurrection forward, there is NEITHER Jew nor Gentle…. That’s not an ethnic-equality-only statement but shows (as does the entire letter to the Jewish Christians in Galatia) that the Old Covenant which had one covenant people was no longer in effect. Israel’s people were meant, as Isaiah explains, to become a servant nation to all nations. But she failed. Thought herself superior and “only.” Also, God’s intent before the foundation of the world was to bring the great revelation of Himself, Jesus, to the earth to fulfill Genesis prophecy. Israel, the Old Covenant people, were keepers of the Word of God and the bloodline that would bring forth Jesus’ incarnation. The fulfillment of The Everlasting Covenant made between the Godhead before Creation is The New Covenant, therefore, the last covenant. The New Covenant brings the Kingdom of Gods via the establishment of His Church with Jesus as the Head. At the end of all time, Jesus will not have come back ‘secretly’ to remove Christians from the warth, but will as it says in Thessalonians, with a loud trump and shouts. By the way, The Schofield Study Bible notes literally reverses the wheat and the tales in the parable of the wheat & tales in Matthew 13:30, in order to shoehorn the supposed Rapture into the parable. He’s dead and knows better now. 😁 Also, being “grafted into the vine” is terribly misunderstood in Dispensational doctrine. Israel’s branch was to be cut off in this final prosecution and judgment. Jesus made that point many times. The axe was at the root. So much more to unpack. I do understand your pain and angst with the teachings you were taught from childhood. The same with me. The fact it causes you angst is a clue. It breeds fear. Hal Lindsay’s book scared people to death as has the Left Behind series. There are some good study books which would help reorient your view of these things. Not in my office, so not thinking of ant at this moment. It’s morning and not fully awake. 😂 Bless you Joshua for looking further into these things, and may you find peace in your heart regarding all of it.

Finally, someone gets this right! And of course it is NT Wright--well said, sir! I have spoken to many christians about this issue and it seems to boil down to a weak Christology. Many Christians mistakenly think that there are TWO bodies of Christ! One is the modern Jewish people and the other is the church! This is western eschatology run amok. There is ONE body of Christ. When Jews turn to Christ, they become part of that body. They don't exist as some other body of Christ, nor as his people. The purposes of God and his people, the Jews, was the gift to the world of Christ. Christ embodies the fulfillment of all the law and the prophets. Christ said, "For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished." So when is everything accomplished? He tells us plainly from the cross, "It is finished (or, accomplished)!” "Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit." So did heaven and earth pass away? I think they did. What would be the consequence of the same Word that spoke the cosmos into being entering death? A recreated cosmos, surely, a passing away (literally!) of the old order, the old way of things, the law. "Behold, I am making everything new!" The new heavens and the new earth are here because Christ and his church embody them. We are now witnessing the "birth pangs" of that new order coming into being.

No.. you definitely are wrong, not according to my words, but Jesus' own words. Read this, when Jesus prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem and 'Israel' of His time: Luke 21: 22 for these are days of vengeance, TO FULFILL ALL THAT IS WRITTEN. 23 Alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the earth and *wrath against this people.* 24 They will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive among all nations, and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. Read verse 22 above. Jesus prophesied something that will come AFTER HIS TIME, and that these things will FULFILL ALL THAT IS WRITTEN. That means, there were still things that were not fulfilled by Jesus Himself, but will only be fulfilled after He went back to heaven, by another subject, who? The Jewish people or probably more precisely 'the nation of Israel' (Jesus said 'wrath against this people'). For how long and what does this include? All that is written about the wrath against Israel were so many, but also include restoration after the wrath. Read Leviticus 26.. and esp the end of it where God said He would remember His covenant with their ancestors. If Jesus Himself confirmed that there were still prophecies written about the nation of Israel, why does NTW says that there is nothing more or no more prophecies yet to be fulfilled by the nation of Israel? Yes, "all the promises of God find their Yes in him (Jesus) (2Co 1:20) but this does not mean that Jesus is EVERYTHING AND ALONE in fulfilling all of those promises? For instance, God promised a Son of David to sit on his throne forever... that Son is Jesus, but Jesus cannot sit on the throne of David that has no subject/people and land. That means, Jesus will actually be the King of Israel on the throne of David, as also confirmed by Gabriel: Luke 1: 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, 33 and *he will reign over the house of Jacob forever,* and of his kingdom there will be no end.” Can we say that Jesus is CURRENTLY reigning over the house of Jacob? No we can't!! And is David's throne in heaven? No it was not! David's throne was in Jerusalem, reigning over Israel, exactly as Gabriel said, over the house of Jacob! That is YET to be fulfilled. And Satan knows this, and is working very hard to prevent this from happening today, and therefore he is deploying all of his armies (mainly the Muslims) against this scenario.

It requires spiritual insight which can't be achieved by doing research or study, but comes by seeking the Lord. I love the way God works outside of our systems and structures.

The semantic range of “generation“ in the Bible, like that of “day“, is wider than a single meaning. You could choose a meaning that creates a contradiction or nonsense, or you could choose a meaning that makes sense. What you choose probably says more about you than about the Scripture itself. For example, in Psalm 14:5, the word “generation” is clearly used to refer to humans based not on time, but based on kind. This is how to make sense of Matthew 24:34. Why would Jesus speak this way? He was always talking in ways that emphasized that we didn’t know when the kingdom was going to come and therefore we had to be ready as if it were coming at any time. It’s a motivational frame that helps Christians of every generation keep motivation to stay awake, spiritually sound and ready. Perfect use of language.

Sadly, it appears that Prof. Wright is gambling on his own natural life ending long before Yeshua Raptures Believers before God's foretold Day of Wrath, Day of great and dreadful Day, Day of the Lord. He has so many books to correct otherwise, and apologies to make to Dispensational Churches, denominations and Believers. He's missing a great opportunity to be a leader of research and "correction" of the erroneous man-made creeds from the 1500s, when the Gentile Church, centered in Europe, retained and festered with anti-semitism and especially anti-Jewish sentiment, among both Catholics and the off-shoot Reform creeds. They felt hard pressed to explain the lack of a Jewish state, couldn't foresee the miracle of 1948 coming in 400 years, so they created a "rounded off" or "smoothed over' human made eschatology. Prof. Wright is missing a huge, historic Church and world ecumenical opportunity for education, unification within the Church among Anglicans and Protestants and perhaps even Catholics. Anglicans could sponsor and underwrite Lee Brainard and others to extend the search for more documents of the early Church Father's view of the Rapture and Dispensationalism as the clear teaching of the early Church and the Apostles.

Dear Peter, once I thought like you but then the Spirit of God opened my eyes or changed my lenses when I started to really read my Bible. It takes years to deprogram but this is how it began with an illumination of Gal 3:26-29, "there is no Jew no gentile BUT WE ARE ONE in Chris"t. Rom 2:28-29 tells us a real Jew is not a physical Jew, but one circumcised in heart ie anyone who believes in Christ. And the knockout blow for my old paradigm was Mat 2:15 quoting Hosea 11:1, "out of Egypt I called my Son', Matthew clearly referring to Jesus and Israel as being one and the same. My introduction to typology then tells me that Israel was merely a shadow, a type, of the real deal which was Jesus, the fulfilment or total culmination of what the OT was all about. To say Israel still has a part to play is no different to saying we must still crucify snakes and look at them to gain our healing John 3:14. As a child I got a toy, a 'type' of a Porsche but give me the real thing and the type is history!! They never teach us typology/types and shadows in church do they, have you ever wondered why? I could go on and on but I've just shared how I got from A to B, if that seed falls on fertile ground another brother or sister will take you from B to C, then we begin to learn ourselves how to get from C to D, we don't need Bible Colleges when we see through the correct lens the Gospel is so simple it takes a preacher to make it complicated.

This is not just a calling from heaven but a calling to heaven. Jesus the man from heaven came to take his people to heaven (J 14). However, the final picture sees heaven come to earth in the New Jerusalem so that heaven andd earth become one. I’m afraid I believe him to be wrong on the future of Israel too. Roms 11 sees the salvation of a sizeable remnant in Israel at the Second Coming (Cf Zech 14). The church, I think, is ultimately the redeemed from every age united in Christ. Israel, though called first is saved last.

If replacement theology is the basis of your view then his views make sense. He ignores various text that do not fit with his replacement view. The proof is in full view as predicted by the bible that the Jews will be back in Israel and as it says in Romans 11, the vail will be removed and they will acknowledge Jesus. On this specific text NT has acknowledges previously that he could not explain this text, the reason being it contradicts his theology. At this time we are seeing the exact fulfilment of the theology that various text state that the Jews will be back in Israel and will recognise Jesus as the true messiah.

perfect ANALYSIS. The guy is is a replacement theology proponent. That is false. And was proved false by Henry Sully in1886. Henry Sully literally predicted a literal physical and political state of Israel, being recreated based merely off of the detailed architectural description in Ezekiel. He argues directly against this replacement theology you can read in page I think 90 of his book. I just find it interesting that Israel was recreated in this guy‘s lifetime and he doesn’t Recognize the literal portion of the scripture

@@stephenbailey9969 Completely and utter misunderstanding of everything! Heaven is NOT none-physical. Gnosticism has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation. Upon death you stand before the Lord immediately. Then the righteous are transformed and given a glorified Heavenly Body. See Hebrews chapter 9 verse 27. On the New Heavens and New Earth... This part is more lengthy. In the ancient Jewish culture when you said Heaven and Earth you were saying or making a reference to the Temple in Jerusalem. It was a idiom-a expression that had a figurative meaning! The Jewish Temple was a figurative representation of the divide between Heaven and Earth. There was in the temple a Holy of Holies and the Arch of The Covenant. The Mercy Seat or Throne of God was surrounded by Cherubim Angels and was made to represent Heaven. Outside the Throne Room of God when you stepped out of it you had a floor which represented the earth and a lampstand which represented the Sun. Further out from that room in the Temple was a area that had a large bowl of water called The Sea. This is Heaven, Earth and Sea.... When Christ accomplished the atonement and made a New Covenant, the veil was torn in the Temple the old order done away with and made obsolete and a New Covenant was made between God and now All men. And we worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth through faith in the accomplished work of Christ. There are now no unfulfilled or outstanding prophecies left. I'm very sorry to disappoint you.

New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below? Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary? What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9. If the New Covenant is "everlasting" in Hebrews 13:20 and the Old Covenant is "obsolete" in Hebrews 8:13, why would any Christian believe God is going back to the Old Covenant system during a future time period? Gen 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. Has modern 'Zionism" been a "blessing" to Christians in the Middle East? Has it been a blessing to modern Jews who have been told they are "God's Chosen People", without a relationship with Christ? How many innocent men, women, and children, have been killed in the Middle East since 1948? Was the promise in the Balfour Declaration to protect the rights of Non-Jews living in the land kept?

In Verses 31 & 32 Yeshua tells the Chief Priests and Elders "...the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you." because they believed. The contrast is between the Chief Priests & Elders and the common people. This is the context for understanding and interpreting the parables that follow.

New Jerusalem is through him and people from Palestine are our brothers and sister that are also the image of God and deserve respect, care and love.

Assumption #1 - Are people of the Bible known today? It’s not clear the people who call themselves Israel are the Israelites of the Bible. People will react violently to this observation but think about it. Where is Edom (the proper birthright owner) today? How about other Biblical peoples? Modern Israel adopted the name in 1948, but does that mean they are all of the tribes of Israel? At most they might be the House of Judah (with a very generous view of an uncharted history), or Idumeans, but they are most likely not the House of Israel. Don’t assume because a nation carries the name ‘Israel’ they are the people YHWH chose. They could be the abomination of desolation (Oba 1:8-11).

I feel the main mistake these people make beyond being dishonest with the clear Old Testament/"Tanakh" is that they haven't comprehended what I notice throughout Yehovah's creation - the priciple of what I call Holy Paradox. Two seemingly opposite things can be true at the same time, thereby causing a third reality ... such as how a boat cannot go toward its destination unless water pushes against its rudder AND wind pushes in an opposing direction. This is why it is imminently clear to me that "Israel" is both a promised-to-the-year-to-be-re-established & flourish by biblical math and language in 1948/"the latter days" AND is also a genetic pool of people AND a Body of all nationalities which come to faith (due to ingrafting). As well, "Jerusalem" to me is both a physical city AND the spiritual realm of worship and experience within the realm of the Presence of the Holy Spirit of Yehovah/Ye(ho)shua (God/Jesus). I discovered in seminary many moons ago that a well-known theologian or two (have forgotten names) i wrote extensively on this principle in the early 1900's, which my former husband shared with me (one of the most precious things he imparted into my life and being), and his high school Bible teacher (a seminarian) taught to his classes in the 1970's. Oh, my goodness, it makes life SO MUCH more peaceful - bears fruiit that is Good. HalleluYah &; >. (P.S. Nehemia Gordon's KZbin video today on what Yeshua taught about God's name is PRICELESS - indeed, another little-known prophecy fulfilled that Israel would forget His personal name until the end of days when He would cause them to remember it again &; > )
