Israel's Prophetic Programme Revealed.

This is truly a beautiful book, extremely well written & presented, which documents the successive stages of Israel's prophetically forged destiny. A book which scans the entire Biblical prophetic programme for Israel and the Jewish people.The book is also based upon an understanding of who the Jewish people are in relation to Scripture, what they have experienced historically, why they have been thus dealt with and where their journey through history will ultimately bring them. Among the stated aims of this book is to assist Christians in their understanding of the Jewish people, their problems, aspirations, and their divinely destined place in history through the unfolding of the prophetic programme included with the Bible. Another aim is to help Jewish people differentiate between a "Christianity" which has heaped scorn, ridicule and persecution upon the Jewish people and true Christians who emulate the genuine spirit of Christ towards the "Chosen People" of God, through whom humanity's redemptive programme and Person of the Messiah have been revealed. Another aim of this book is to assist the Jewish people in their understanding of the enormous dimensions of their unique relationship to the God of the Bible & and His faithfulness in delivering all the irrevocable promises made to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob (Israel).The dispersion, preservation, restoration and reconciliation of the Jewish people each have their own relevant section in this study. The many historical periods of Jewish suffering and persecution are also included. The Ghettoes, the Holocaust, Crusades, Blood Libels & other such issues (such as being forced to wear a number of badges to identify themselves as Jews by numerous nations/entities) all receive the appropriate attention.The re-birth of the Jewish State of Israel and the ingathering of the Jewish exiles from around the World receives the appropriate coverage as does the unification of the City of Jerusalem in 1967.The return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to Jerusalem is also covered. It is also included in the context of the coming battle at Jerusalem against the invading nations as described in Zechariah 14;v1 to 5);-"...I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle...Then shall the Lord go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fought in the day of battle...". The prophecy proceeding to declare the Messiah's physical return, with His feet again standing upon the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem.Highly recommended for anyone interested in the prophetic programme of the Jewish people.
