By Art Katz58504:11ISA 49:6ZEC 12:10MAT 5:14JHN 4:22ROM 9:1ROM 10:1ROM 11:25GAL 3:28EPH 2:11REV 7:4Art Katz emphasizes the critical relationship between Israel and the Church, presenting it as a divine mystery that must not be ignored. He explains that both Israel and the Church share a reciprocal destiny, where neither can fully realize God's intentions independently of the other. Katz warns that neglecting this connection limits the Church's understanding of its purpose in the last days. He references Paul's teachings in Romans 9, 10, and 11, highlighting the importance of recognizing Israel's role in God's plan. The message calls for the Church to be aware of the significant events that are unfolding regarding Israel.
The Object of Prophecy
By John Nelson Darby0ISA 40:1EZK 1:1EZK 11:22DAN 10:14DAN 11:14DAN 11:30DAN 12:1DAN 12:7DAN 12:11ROM 11:25John Nelson Darby emphasizes that the common interpretation of prophecy, which equates the church with Israel, is fundamentally flawed. He argues that God's ultimate purpose is centered on Christ and His glory, with Israel being the focal point of God's governance over the world. Darby highlights that many prophecies, particularly in Daniel, pertain specifically to Israel and not the church, and that overlooking this distinction leads to confusion in understanding God's plans. He asserts that the church and Israel have distinct roles in prophecy, and that the church's involvement is absent during the time when Israel is recognized in God's dealings. This misunderstanding has significant implications for interpreting biblical prophecy and the nature of God's governance.
God's End-Time Prophetic Plan: 3 Essential Parts
By Mike Bickle251:13:32ROM 11:25Mike Bickle emphasizes the critical importance of understanding Romans chapter 11, which outlines God's end-time prophetic plan concerning Israel and the Gentiles. He explains that this chapter reveals a mystery about Israel's temporary spiritual blindness, the coming fullness of the Gentiles, and the eventual salvation of all Israel. Bickle warns against ignorance and arrogance regarding this mystery, urging believers to recognize their role in provoking Israel to jealousy through love and support. He stresses that the church's response to Israel will significantly impact their spiritual safety and the unfolding of God's plan in the end times.
