The Fig Tree has bloomed, next up on the prophetical calendar of events is 'that blessed hope', the Rapture of the Church
"Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy." Zephaniah 3:8 (KJV)
Until the founding of the
United Nations in 1945, there had never been a gathering all of the world powers in one place. That this takes place in our day is not only unique in world history, but was also foretold by the prophets of the Old Testament. The Senate approved the UN Charter on July 28, 1945,
by a vote of 89 to 2. The United Nations came into existence on October 24, 1945, after 29 nations had ratified the Charter.
A little less than 3 years after the founding on the UN, Israel would be
officially regathered on May 14, 1948. Both these events were prophesied in the Bible, and both came to pass within our lifetime. I can already hear the howling from the brethren exclaiming "that's not true, you're just making that up!". But the gospel truth is, the Bible did and does indeed declare these prophecies to be true. Let's start with the easy one first
The Fig Tree Has Already Bloomed
"Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." Matthew 24:32-34 (KJV)
The Fig Tree has bloomed, next up on the prophetical calendar of events is 'that blessed hope', the Rapture of the Church. Without setting any kind of date, springtime of 2018 will be a time of great interest. It will be the 70th anniversary of regathered Israel, and if you know how God likes to do things around the number 70, it could potentially be a time of prophecy being fulfilled.
The End Times gathering of the nations
In 6,000 years of human history, there has never been a time where all the nations of the world have been officially and formally gathered together. Yet the Bible declares in multiple places that in the last days, God will gather them all together. And why would God do this? So He could destroy them because they were against His people the Jews, and against His holy city of Jerusalem, the city of the Great King.
"...for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger:.." Zephaniah 3:8 (KJV)
God promises that the day would come when He would allow all the nations to gather together, and as we already pointed out, the founding on the United Nations was the beginning of the fulfillment of that prophecy. Even the name they chose for themselves - the UNITED Nations - hearkens back to the Old Testament prophets. In an earlier story today where we showed you that
UNESCO condemned Israel in a 22-10 vote - a vote that happened today - proclaiming that the Jews had no right to Jerusalem. And the very act of the passing of their resolution is soaked in the words from the prophets.
"And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem." Zechariah 12:9 (KJV)
The gathered nations of the UN hate Israel and the Jews, exactly as the Bible says they would:
Everything the Bible says the United Nations, once gathered, would do is already happening and it will only get worse. Watch the video below and see Bible prophecy unfolding. The last 30 seconds will send cold chills down your spine.
These events we are discussing are events taking place right now at this very moment, prophecy is being referenced and brought to pass everywhere you look. But do the nations, the combined intelligence of the free world, give even the most cursory of consideration to the fact that what they are doing is fulfillment of Bible prophecy? No, they do not, the couldn't care less. The nations of the world do not consider the God of Abraham, and His words have little or no meaning to them. And they will go on thinking and acting contrary to God, right up until the moment God allows all nations of the world - including the United States - to come against the tiny nation of Israel in the Battle of Armageddon.
"For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city." Zechariah 14:2 (KJV)
Did you catch that? ALL nations are gathered together by God, and they ALL decide to follow Antichrist and attack Israel. How could all nations be gathered unless they had already formed an alliance? (insert light bulb moment here). All the nations DID form an alliance - 1945 - and they will continue this alliance right into the Valley of Megiddo. And what will be the outcome of that, you ask?
"Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south." Zechariah 14:3,4 (KJV)
UNESCO PASSES RESOLUTION ‘OCCUPIED PALESTINE’ DISAVOWS ISRAELI SOVEREIGNTY IN JERUSALEM IN 22-10 VOTE
That is the coming day when the United Nations, under the banner of Antichrist, group together to fight against Israel with the prize being Jerusalem. Why all the fuss about Jerusalem? Because that's the city of the Great and Coming King - King Jesus! The Devil, who wants to be "like the Most High", wants that city to try and stop Jesus from ruling for a thousand years from Jerusalem.
"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." Revelation 20:4 (KJV)
Now you know the future of the United Nations. It's going to be destroyed because they are against God, against His Christ, against the Jews and against Israel. These events, long ago prophesied in the Bible, are playing out right now, in today's headlines.
"Behold, I have told you before." Matthew 24:25 (KJV)
