The new testament sheds light on the old testament, including the fulfillment of OT prophecies concerning Israel. Both old and new testaments are inspired Scripture and must be taken together because the new fulfills the old. The new covenant has come and the old covenant is obsolete. In the Bible the nation of Israel was indeed God's chosen people under the old covenant, but when Jesus came and died on the cross, He established the new covenant as God had promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34. We read in Hebrews 8:6-13, 10:16-18, and 12:24 that this prophecy was fulfilled by Jesus, the mediator of the new and better covenant. Therefore, all the OT promises made to Israel have been fulfilled in the Lord Jesus, who is the promised seed of Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3 & Galatians 3:16-18). The nation of Israel that existed during the old testament era and at the time of Christ’s first coming fulfilled its purpose of bringing the promised Messiah to all the nations and is no longer a part of God’s plan of redemption for mankind, nor ever will be again. Modern day Israel is not the same as Biblical Israel, but rather a politically created nation by the U.N since 1948 and is not a fulfillment of any Bible prophecy. Jesus foretold of the destruction of Jerusalem in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21. That event took place in 70 AD and that ended not only the Judaic age, but also God's dealings with Israel as a nation. Our focus as Christians should be to spread the gospel to all the world and not only on one nation in the middle east that has no particular significance to us or to God. Under the new covenant all people can come to faith in Christ and be saved, whether they are a Jew or a Gentile because the dividing wall has been removed and all who believe are one body in Christ (Ephesians 2:14). Only those who believe in Jesus are saved and are God's chosen, covenant people. We should pray for the salvation of Israelis just as we pray for people of all nations.

1. Is there only one god, or are there multiple gods? If multiple, how is a person to choose which deserves obedience? If there is only one good, who is Baal? If Baal is a false god, precisely what makes your god NOT false, aside from it telling you that is the case? 2. Would you agree that before anything can exist, something has to create it? Did your god create everything? If yes, who/what created your god? 3. Is your god infallible? 4. Is your god omnipotent? 5. Is your god omniscient? 6. Is your god benevolent, or malicious? 7. If your god cannot make mistakes, then it follows that everything it creates is either perfect, or that your god intentionally makes things that are flawed. Would a benevolent god intentionally create something likely to suffer because of its flaws? 8. If your god can do anything, and it created the universe, why didn't it simply create a perfect world inhabited by perfect beings? If your god wanted obedience, and god is not malicious, why did god make disobedience possible? 9. If your god knows everything, does it already understand every thought and feeling you have? Does it instantaneously know everything you say and do? If yes, what is the point of religious rituals, such as prayer? 10. Why would an omnipotent and omniscient god not communicate directly and unambiguously with individuals, with no need of books, churches, prophets, signs, miracles, etc? If a person is not intelligent enough, or not "worthy" enough to speak directly with god, whose fault is that? Who made the person in the first place? If a person is unworthy or incapable of directly communicating with god, how can that person be capable of recognizing a valid spokesperson for god? 11. Think about the person/people who convinced/persuaded/ordered you to believe in a version of god. Are they infallible? Is it at all possible for them to tell you something they sincerely believe, but for that thing they tell you to be actually incorrect? 12. Are feelings reliable tools to guide actions? Suppose I hear a person in my neighborhood talking a lot about the presence of violent break in robberies nearby, and I get apprehensive. I am convinced by the passion my neighbor puts into this story, even though I've seen no tangible evidence. That night, I hear a noise. I FEEL certain that it is a robber breaking in to harm my family. I get out of bed, pull a pistol from the bedside table. Without opening the bedroom door, I shoot through it to get the robber. When I open the door, there is my son, lying dead on the floor from my bullet. I was sure. I relied on my feelings. My fear of a robber. My hope of being a defender father. Feelings, not facts. Was that a good way to live my life? Is faith factual knowledge or is it just a feeling, something you choose to believe, without any rational proof? There are things science does not yet have good explanations for. However, unlike religion, logic and science eagerly accept doubt, challenges and skepticism, and are eager to be revised and improved. They don't claim to be perfect. Religion does. Religion demands blind obedience, with harsh horrific punishment in this world and the next if you fail to obey. If you ignore science, it doesn't change the facts of science, so no one has to threaten you about it. Science (reason) built the machine you are reading this message on. Religion blows up clinics and puts burning crosses on people's lawns. Religion persecutes and murders and starts centuries of war. Religion rapes little kids, then covers it up. Religion tells underage girls they have to get married and have kids like a farm animal slave. Religion is about ignorance and enslavement and threats and judging others for being different. Religion is about cowardly conformity. Religion is about keeping people UNquestioning and OBEDIENT, aka, slaves. Science (reason) is about rational independent thought. Are you brave enough, strong enough, to think for yourself and stand on your own, apart from others? 14. Do you deny that religion (superstition, irrational behavior) is the root cause of most human conflict in history, that for centuries millions have been tortured and murdered "because god told me to do it"? 13. Suppose a person has a book full of maps to guide a group journey. They rely upon it, but the group is perpetually lost. You question the book, but your friend insists that the book is accurate. "How do you know?" you ask. They reply, "I know that this book is accurate and perfect, because it says so in the book." Your friend insists that the book is information directly from god....but some other people wrote the book, based on their interpretations, and all of them disagree.....but that is okay, because of how passionately they shout about their version of the maps, and how strongly it makes your friend feel. When you show them hundreds of self contradictions in the book, they get upset and say that you are just not reading the book correctly. Which person is messed up? You, or the book fanatic? How do you justify cherry picking of which parts of the bible to follow? Leviticus much? Murdered and burned many animals as a sacrifice, as you are required to ? How many NON religious books have you ever read? 14. If the point is to die and go to heaven, why not simply commit mass suicide and get it over with? Christ was quite literally a kamikaze; is that what you preach should be emulated in daily life? 15. Why is it necessary to use superstition and irrationality to justify your practical principles? Why treat humans like a donkey in need of the stick of hell and the carrot of heaven? If you want positive secular behavior, why not justify that behavior in practical terms? Religion preys upon the weak and the stupid. Rationalization is not scholarship. If your god is so wise, so powerful, WHY is it so petty as to demand unconditional obedience? What kind of god would need much less DEMAND that we grovel and call ourselves unworthy? Unworthy? Who made you in the first place! If your god is so benevolent, and so omnipotent, why does it deliberately cause suffering? Why the grotesque elaborate torture scene of Jesus, when god could have simply changed the world in the blink of an eye, effortlessly? Oh, your god cannot be understood? Then HOW can you know it even exists? Where is your factual tangible irrefutable proof? Suppose I "believe" that you deserve to die and I am allowed by god to kill you. How are you feeling about faith NOW? Remember 9/11? They crashed those jets because of FAITH, because they believed religion that said they would die as martyrs. A debate over religion is exactly the same as debate between two inmates in an insane asylum over which voices in their heads are "real". IRRATIONALITY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. Wake up. FEELINGS ARE NOT TOOLS TO PERCEIVE REALITY OR GUIDE YOUR LIFE!

I just ignore ignorance ….it seems those who have sold their souls to the evil one, feel the need to try to destroy our faith in GOD, JESUS and the Holy Spirit, BUT, IT WON’T HAPPEN 🙏

Don't know how old this video is, but the prophecy is even older!! Yet, still newsworthy!! 🙏

They can't because they don't belong to God

And the bible and God are consistent. smh

Its current no matter what

Both old and new testaments are inspired Scripture and must be taken together because the new fulfills the old. The new covenant has come and the old covenant is obsolete.

For me this is one of the best parts of the End Days! To be able to go to pastor John 365 24/7 from almost anywhere on the 🌏 Praise the Lord what a time to be alive. 🙏🕊️🔥❤️

ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS JUST ASK A JEW , WHO IS JESUS .THEY WILL GET THEIR ANSWER...AND I AM NOT BEING FUNNY..

We are PREDESTINED from the Beginning for Salvation through Sanctification!!! ❤

Israel = SonOfMan = LORD Jesus ❤ I AM ❤ King of Kings!!! 👑 HolySpirit ❤

​@misfitking_0143 not everyone is predestined.

It's not His will that any should perish. But hell is enlarging itself daily. God's will never overrides our will. But our will must be voluntarily surrendered to Him. God predestined every man to be saved. Not every man will accept it. For more on this topic, No King But Caesar & The Return Of The Melchisedec is available online at Advantage Books. Peace to all.@@LittlePumpkin6

EXACTLY

Under the new covenant only Christians are God's chosen people. Not unbelievers.

But what if those who have been misinformed by well meaning pastors and teachers end up hearing those words? A literal reading of Ezekiel 36:24-38 clearly says the Lord will take his people out of the nations. HE will gather them…HE will clean and cleanse them…it doesn’t say God will work through Christian or Jewish Zionists and their worldly political friends. Try it for yourself. Read the passage literally. People like Dr Barnet have been teaching this interpretation for so long, people learn to see it their way instead of trusting their eyes. Separating Church and Israel is a mistake. Please listen to more views and be prepared to do the hard work of discerning between the various views. May the Lord guide your study.

Good question. Here's my thoughts on it. They rejected their Messiah when He came to them (except for the remnant) and God sent judgment on them in 70 AD. They have been and always will be under judgment. So I don't think they will ever "love thy neighbor" unless they become Christians, which isn't likely.

In his last amazing act of Grace in the very last days, God will bring the last surviving remnant in... Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn" Zechariah 13:8-9 In the whole land,” declares the Lord, “two-thirds will be struck down and perish; yet one-third will be left in it. This third I will put into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on my name and I will answer them; I will say, ‘They are my people,’ and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.’” In spite of what some may say, everyone doesn't make it. Jesus says, "no one comes to the Father but through me". The Jews who still reject Jesus as Messiah need to come to Him to be grafted back in, just like the rest of the unbelievers. The gift is for everyone who come to belief in Him and to true repentance. That's the message of the Gospel that the non believers need (Jew and Gentile alike). Any message to the contrary is really taking the Lord's name in vein and cheapening what Jesus did for us on that cross and in his resurrection.

I’ve also heard that birds are returning!

Lol, your comment is funny really enjoy it , but am glad the video is still out there coz its first time am watch ing t & leaned a lot

We need to hear it now because we are leading to the WAR OF GOG AND MAGOG. you may have heard this before but others may not have. It's very significant to learn and know God's Words over two thousand years ago are finally coming about. Many pastors are bringing and teaching Ezekiel 38 to everyone's attention. It's right around the corner. So try to look at it in a different way. It might not be for you and you already know it, but think of how many thousands of people may not...♥️

😮 people who criticize other people's comments are just rude. Deal with what is in your own heart concerning this video, not what is in someone else's heart. First remove the plank from thine own eye before trying to remove the mote in somebody elses.

@@user-bf4yi7ef2k If you're insinuating your comment to me. It's how you interpreted it. We're all here to help each other as Christians. I was being kind. Sometimes we all need to look at things a little differently. It's called constructive criticism, not destructive or rude.

@@user-bf4yi7ef2k Oh Ok and you're doing the Very Same Thing By Calling Someone Out. That's so funny. You have a plank in your eye as well .... It's a wonderful not all blind, well we kind of are Lol🤣

Israel

@@newlifeprayerchain5859 Yes!

The kings of the east are Jesus and his saints.

@@peggylivermore2613 If you really think that is so then you ought to take a re-read of Revelation Chpt. 16, especially verse 12.

Can I recommend another channel for you to check out? Steve Gregg Videos explains a lot about Israel if you are interested. Blessings to you in Christ.

It applies even more today

I understand it’s completely applicable however, it’s a little misleading because you’re almost insinuating. This is an up-to-date video and it’s really not. I appreciate your teaching though.

What works you have done before the internet? Complain that the copyright was 10 years old or the book was it of print at the publishers? Man practically EVERYTHING in life was better then. Humans are slowly enslaving their minds and the only ones who can see it are the ones who grew up before it all. Wisdom will cease to exist once the generations that grew up before it all are gone. It was replaced with Google and "THEIR TRUTH".

He did question it himself when mentioning silver price, saying I don’t even know what silver is worth today. What $12 dollars? Throwing out a thought as a guess was not a definite answer when he said he didn’t know.

I noticed that too. I find that odd.

It’s just his accent. A lot of folks say it that way, from the Midwest

Having studied Arabic, it makes me cringe a little, but it is a regional pronunciation.

Exactly they have been very Quite since 7th of October ...the British have to own up to what they started ..

Pentecost happened in one day. 3000 Jews were saved in Jerusalem and many rejected: Stoning Steven, killing James, jailing and executing Paul…

@gerardmoloney433 If you read the prophecy of Isaiah about Israel being born again as a nation (Isaiah 66. John 3), that is not what happened in 1948. Isaiah 66:17 "For Yahweh will execute judgment by fire And by His sword on all flesh, And those slain by Yahweh will be many", did that happen in 1948? No. Isaiah 66:18 "For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory." Did that happen in 1948? No. Isaiah 66:20 "And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord." Did that happen in 1948? No. Isaiah 66:21 "And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord." Did that happen in 1948? No. This is all still future, Israel has not been born again as the prophets foretold, the current Israel is in unbelief and are being gathered to undergo the time of Jacob's trouble before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord.
