LESSON 2 * PART 3 * BOOK 25
ROMANS 11:25-34
In the past few lessons we've been talking about how God is not through with the Nation of Israel, they've been blinded, and broken off from the roots of Abraham, and have been out there now for the past 1900 + years in a spiritual national blindness, but God hasn't lost track of them. We studied about the fulness of the Gentiles coming in in our last lesson, so they're (The Church) is out of the way as The Lord takes them up to glory (Rapture) and the unbelieving Gentile world will go on into the Tribulation, but the Tribulation is primarily God dealing again with His Covenant people.
Romans 11:26
All Israel? Well hardly, but remember, what part of Israel is God interested in? The believers, and so all of believing Israel will be saved. Unbelieving Israel? I'm sure that the word "all Israel" in verse 26 speaks to a remnant, and not to the total number of Israelites that will be living on the planet at that time. Zechariah 13:8,9
"And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, (Israel) saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. (now there's your remnant) Now go to Jeremiah Chapter 31, verse 31, in that little portion of Scripture that we call, "The new Covenant." The new Covenant is not Church ground, but rather Israel.
Jeremiah 31:31
that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:"
All Israel. Don't you buy this stuff that the ten tribes of Israel are lost, because God knows where they all are, and each of the twelve tribes will be represented in the end times. So God tells us that He will make a new Covenant with Israel. Now verse 32.
Jeremiah 31:32,33
Now verse 34:
Jeremiah 31:34
Now go to Matthew Chapter 24. Matthew 24:3
Matthew 24:15,16
"When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, [that's in Daniel Chapter 9, verse 26 and 27] stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Daniel 9:26,27
So it's the Roman people from which this Anti-christ will come, or at least the old Roman Empire.) Daniel 9:27a
Normally we feel that this treaty is with the Nation of Israel, but it's also going to involve a lot of the Arab worlds, as the whole Middle East is a powder keg, not just Israel. I think this man Anti-christ will come in and make this peace agreement with Israel and her neighbors. Now let's finish verse 27.
Daniel 9:27b
Simple questions. In order for Israel to practice sacrifices what do they have to have? The Temple! So this verse tells us that before the midpoint of the Tribulation takes place, Israel will have to have her temple. Right now, it kind of seems hopeless, but don't give up on God. Whether the anti-christ will make an agreement back here at the beginning with the Muslim world, that will permit Israel to somehow erect a place of worship next to the Mosque of Omar, or whatever, I don't know. Daniel 9:27b
Matthew 24:15
Matthew 24:16
Some people think it will be the red rock city of Petra. Matthew 24:17
Now, that's one group of people. Let's look at another in verse 18.
Matthew 24:18
Now you're dealing with the working class people. In Christ's day, Israel was an agrarian nation, as most of the world. Matthew 24:19
A complete cross-section of people. Older people, middle-aged people, younger people. Now verse 20. Matthew 24:20
Now verse 21.
Matthew 24:21
The trumpet judgments, the bowl judgments, etc.
Matthew 24:22
Now then, there's going to be a group of Jews who are the elect of God. This escaping remnant of Jews that are fleeing from Jerusalem down to the mountains. You pick that up in Revelation Chapter 12. And just like Israel coming out of Egypt, it's almost a direct parallel. God did, supernaturally. The supernatural will become commonplace.
The Anti-christ is going to try and destroy them with an armed force. And again, God will intervene. Just like He opened the Red Sea to help Israel, this time He's going to open the earth and pour the Anti-christ's army into it and cover them up. It's still a supernatural phenomena. Israel's remnant is going to be safe. The eighth sign as we've studied it some time ago in the book of John. John 21:5
"Then Jesus saith unto them, `Children, (He's speaking to the eleven) have ye any meat?' John 21:6
"And he said unto them, `Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. Verse 11 is the real sign of this miracle.
John 21:11
It broke! So what's the sign? That when God puts out that final net to His remnant, is He going to lose a one of them? Not a one and that's the sign of the last chapter of John, that when God makes His final move with the Nation of Israel, of that one-third remnant, He's not going to miss one. Now, let's go back to Zechariah, Chapter 12 and verse 10.
Zechariah 12:10
Now let's quickly go to Zechariah 13 verse 6.
Zechariah 13:6
