Core Truth: The recent tragic events now unfolding in the Middle East have once again reminded me of something I’ve personally believed for years; that while there are many crises that have arisen to dominate much of the world’s attention from time to time, sooner or later God sovereignly allows things to happen that force the world’s attention back once again to the nation of Israel. Such, I believe, is the case with the current situation and in today’s message we’ll take a look at what may actually be happening now, what God’s Final End Game is going to look like, and what we can do to be prepared for it.

Core Truth: A common understanding of these prophetic words is that just when Israel has finally been able to negotiate a peace with her neighbors – a peace that many scholars believe will be brokered between the Antichrist and his forces – this “Man of Sin” (2 Thess. 2:3) and his armies will invade Israel in an attempt to establish his own seat of world government in Jerusalem, even proclaiming that he himself is God (2 Thess. 2:4), which will trigger Christ’s Second Coming with His Church and the armies of heaven to destroy him “with the breath of His mouth, and with the brightness of His coming.” (2 Thess. 2:8).

Core Truth: God’s plans and purposes for mankind – made before the foundation of the world – are well underway and are not meant to be secretive or cryptic. However, to understand those plans and how we as His church fit into them, we need to understand the unique role He has given to the nation of Israel, an understanding that, unfortunately, many Christians today don’t have.
