ISRAEL-GAZA CONFLICT . . . BUT ALSO ... ' SURE SIGN ' of CHRIST'S RETURN & GOD'S KINGDOM ( on EARTH )
The unfolding Israeli-Palestinian War in Gaza is a major ' latter-day sign ' of momentous events soon to overwhelm mankind. As the current conflict expands to include Syria & Lebanon ( & ultimately , the invading Russian host ) the Bible once again provides absolute certainty about events to follow. Just as Jeremiah 47 clearly spelt out the coming ' final destruction ' of the latter-day Philistines ( Palestinians ) at the hands of the Russian confederacy , the prophet Zechariah uses the exact same context to describe ' the sequence ' of events that will follow :- 1 ) the Palestinians' final destruction .... 2 ) the long-awaited return of the Lord Jesus Christ to judge the nations ... before 3 ) the establishment of Christ's rulership of a world-wide ' Kingdom ' characterised by ' peace '. While many other events will fall between these 3 major events , they will most assuredly come as foretold . . . God's Word is certain !!!
Zechariah 9v6-10 - 1 ) I will ' cut off ' the pride of the Philistines ( Palestinians ). I will take away his blood out of his mouth & his abominations from between his teeth . . . 2 ) Rejoice greatly , O ' daughter ' of Zion ; shout , O ' daughter ' of Jerusalem : Behold thy King cometh unto thee : he is just & having salvation ; lowly & riding upon an ass & upon a colt the foal of an ass. And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim & the horse from Jerusalem & the battle bow shall be cut off & 3 ) he shall ' speak peace ' unto the heathen ( nations ) & his dominion shall be from sea even to sea & from the river even to the ends of the earth
