Where are we on GOD's prophetic timetable.- For Daytime Folks - Prov 4:18 But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until the full day





Luke 21:24 and they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled under foot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. 


Reading this verse makes me tremble because this prophecy has already been fulfilled.  When was it fulfilled ? This was fulfilled When Israel became a nation  and no longer controlled by gentile nations. Israel became a sovereign state on May 14,1948 .  The Jewish people began returning to their homeland in large numbers at the end of War World 2. Their return to Israel still continues to this very day.  By the way, Jerusalem is divided now because of Palestinian occupation. This situation will not continue, the Temple Mount is occupied by a Mosque this will be destroyed and a Jewish temple will be rebuilt at the location. 


Israel was destroyed in 70 AD,   Restored on May 14th,1948. This day also happens to be also  the day of Pentecost.  If I begin to talk about the significance of the days and number of days on this subject I would be here for awhile. I think I will save that topic for another time. 


This was prophesied by  Ezekiel :


Ezek 37:21 "Say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land;


In the next scripture references Jesus uses a  parable, Jesus refers to Israel as a fig tree to illustrate a point;
GOD is saying that when Israel is established as a nation and begins to be a prosperous nation(which it is) This is a certain sign that GOD's reign on earth is near.


Luke 21:29 Then He told them a parable: "Behold the fig tree and all the trees;
Luke 21:30 as soon as they put forth leaves, you see it and know for yourselves that summer is now near.
Luke 21:31 "So you also, when you see these things happening, recognize that the kingdom of God is near.
Luke 21:32 "Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all things take place. 


Jesus says the generation of people born during this time will see the coming of the LORD.. Praise His Name!!! People the reference is to the baby boomer generation, I am in the number :)


God proclaims that when the fullness of the Gentiles have come in, we will see Jewish people being saved. Today there are now 15,000 Messianic Jews in Israel and countless more in the US and around the world.  



Rom 11:25 For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery--so that you will not be wise in your own estimation--that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;
Rom 11:26 and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, 
"THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, 
HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB."



The previously hardened hearts of Israel are now hearing the Gospel!!! 


My first exposure to Jewish believers in Jesus occurred in 1987 . I was a member of the Community of the Holy Spirit located in Eastlake, Ohio. One Sunday a local Messianic congregation came and fellowshipped with us. It was an awesome service, we had CHURCH. Tell you what, you really want your eyes open talk to a Rabbi who is knows Jesus. After hearing this Rabbi teach I wanted to go back and read the entire Bible again.. In fact I did...LOL


As more and more Jewish people accept the Lord Jesus,  our Prophetic timetable lets us realize we are very near the end.

These are only a mere few scriptures that indicate what lies shortly ahead of us. The book of Daniel is also a very excellent resource.  It is very rich in prophetic proclamations.

Finally I do want to briefly say all  prophecies we read in the Bible are 100% accurate and none originated or had their source in man.

2 Pet 1:21 For no prophecy ever originated because some man willed it [to do so--it never came by human impulse], but men spoke from God who were borne along (moved and impelled) by the Holy Spirit.

To take scripture from the Holy Bible and to reduce them to the thoughts of men is to commit an act of Blaspheme'. The Bible is Jesus Christ in the form of a document. It is the Living WORD of GOD. And the only way you do not know that is because you are dead in sin. Ask Jesus into your life TODAY!!

John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Be comforted your redemption is near.


1 Thess 5:2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.
1 Thess 5:3 While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.
1 Thess 5:4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief;
