Messianic Kingdom<br />
Isaiah 2 and Micah 4<br />
Now it shall come to pass in the latter days<br />
That the mountain of the Lord’s house<br />
Shall be established on the top of the mountains,<br />
And shall be exalted above the hills;<br />
And all nations shall flow to it.
Messianic Kingdom<br />
Many people shall come and say,<br />
“Come, and let us go up<br />
to the mountain of the Lord,<br />
To the house of the God of Jacob;<br />
He will teach us His ways,<br />
And we shall walk in His paths.”<br />
For out of Zion shall go forth the law,<br />
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
Messianic Kingdom<br />
They shall beat their swords into plowshares,<br />
And their spears into pruning hooks;<br />
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,<br />
Neither shall they learn war anymore.
Revelation 20:4<br />
Millennial Kingdom<br />
4<br />
And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and<br />
judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the<br />
souls of those who had been beheaded for their<br />
witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not<br />
worshiped the beast or his image, and had not<br />
received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands.<br />
And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand<br />
years. 5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until<br />
the thousand years were finished. This is the first<br />
resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in<br />
the first resurrection. Over such the second death has<br />
no power, but they shall be priests of God and of<br />
Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.

world wide conflict that begin the <strong>End</strong> <strong>Times</strong> or Last<br />
Days: World War I & II (1914 ,1939) Matthew 24:7<br />
2. Both World Wars had major Jewish implications, The<br />
Holocaust, & Zionist Movement<br />
3. State of Israel is established in 1948. Israel is established<br />
as a secular nation in unbelief for a future judgment<br />
known as a Time of Jacob's Trouble, The Bibles speaks<br />
of a great gathering of Gentile Armies against Jerusalem.<br />
If this is true then the return of Israel in 1948 is a<br />
significant fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Ezekiel 20:33-35 ,<br />
Ezekiel 22:17 , Zephaniah 2:1<br />
4. Jerusalem the capitol of Israel is under Jewish control<br />

PRESENT DAY EVENTS<br />
• Israel negotiates peace with Arab neighbors -(This sets<br />
the stage for the Non-Arab invasion of Ezekiel 38 , where<br />
Arab nations will not be involved in this conflict because<br />
of the peace treaty.)<br />
• Non Arab nations will come against Israel.<br />
• Destruction of Damascus, Syria.<br />
• Babylon (Iraq) will be rebuilt as a major economic<br />
center.
FUTURE EVENTS<br />
• A Peace treaty with the Arab states will lead into non-<br />
Arab conflict involving an invasion of Israel Ezekiel 38<br />
(Rosh-Russia) (Cush-Ethiopia) (Meshech-Moscow)<br />
(Libya-Put) (Tubal-Tubalsk,Siberia) (Gomer-Germany)<br />
(Persia-Iran) (Togarmah-Armenia)<br />
• The One World Government will be established-<br />
(One Horn) Daniel 7:23<br />
• One world government divides into ten kingdoms<br />
(Ten Horns) Daniel 7:24a<br />
(Note: The European Union is one of the Ten Toes)
FUTURE EVENTS<br />
4. The Rise of Anti-Christ, (Anti-Messiah who opposes the<br />
real Messiah) is different from the other nations that ruled<br />
the earth. Some believe the Anti-Messiah will serve as a<br />
false Messiah for the Jewish People. This is not the case.<br />
He is the one world leader who takes over the Jewish<br />
Temple and claims himself as God. The Anti-Christ is of<br />
Roman origin, the prince of the people who destroyed the<br />
city. Daniel 7:24b<br />
5. Period of peace and false security 3 1/2 year period of<br />
false peace for Israel. Turmoil for the rest of the world.<br />

“YESHUAT HASHEM KEHEREF AYIN”<br />
THE SALVATION OF GOD<br />
COMES IN THE<br />
BLINK OF AN EYE
New Testament Saints - All believers in the Messiah,<br />
after the cross. The Church is composed of Believing<br />
Jews and Gentiles beginning at Acts Chapter 2 until the<br />
Rapture.<br />
The fact is that the Messiah can come at any time to<br />
gather the New Testament Saints. There are no<br />
preconditions for the "catching away of believers". If<br />
Messiah comes in the middle of the tribulation or the end<br />
then we would know exactly when he is coming and then<br />
we would get ready. The scriptures teach that the<br />
Messiah will come secretly before the wrath. The<br />
Second Coming is exactly seven years after the signing<br />
of the covenant with the Anti-Christ, but the rapture<br />
could happen at any moment.
The Rapture of Believers<br />
1. The Rapture can come at any moment, Matthew 24:42,44 , Luke 12:35<br />
2. Mansions are being prepared for believers John 14:1-3<br />
3. Believers will meet the Messiah in the air (dead ones will rise first)<br />
1Thessalonians 4:13-18<br />
4. Believers receive glorified bodies 1 Corinthians 15:50-58<br />
5. Believers are delivered from the wrath to come 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10<br />
6. Yeshua will come secretly before the wrath Luke 21:36 , 1 Thessalonians<br />
5:1-10<br />
7. The Shofar (Trumpet) of Righteousness blown 1 Corinthians 15:52<br />
8. There are normal conditions on the earth Matthew 24:38-44
The Rapture of Believers<br />
1. Note that the Church is not mentioned at anytime<br />
during the Wrath in the book of Revelations,<br />
2. The church is heavily mentioned during the first three<br />
chapters,<br />
3. The Church is not mentioned until after the wrath in<br />
Revelation. 19:11-16<br />
4. There are believers during the tribulation period, but<br />
these are not “Church” saints, these become<br />
believers after the church has been removed.

The Rapture of Believers<br />
There are believers present during the entire<br />
tribulation period. In fact the purpose of the<br />
tribulation is to bring people to faith by means<br />
of God's wrath, and cause them to cry out the<br />
Messiah. The Church is not mentioned in any<br />
tribulation passage. The elect, believers,<br />
tribulation saints who come to Messiah after<br />
the rapture exist, but the Church is not<br />
mentioned in any passage.
The Opponents of the Rapture<br />
1. Some see the “Church” as Israel, because<br />
Israel is mentioned in the tribulation<br />
passages, therefore the church is too.<br />
2. Some see the tribulation period as a time<br />
of “Great Signs and Wonders” and believers<br />
must experience these things.<br />
3. Some see these events as if they have<br />
already happened. The 70 AD destruction<br />
of Jerusalem have already fulfilled the<br />
tribulation passages.<br />
4. Some see these passages as allegorical.
Daniel 2:32 God Reveals Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream<br />
32<br />
This image’s<br />
•head was of fine gold,<br />
•its chest and arms of silver,<br />
•its belly and thighs of bronze,<br />
•its legs of iron,<br />
•its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.<br />
34<br />
You watched while a stone was cut out without<br />
hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and<br />
clay, and broke them in pieces.<br />
36<br />
“This is the dream. Now we will tell the<br />
interpretation of it before the king.<br />
37<br />
You, O king,<br />
….you are this head of gold.
39<br />
But after you shall arise another kingdom<br />
inferior to yours; then another, a third<br />
kingdom of bronze, which shall rule over all<br />
the earth. 40 And the fourth kingdom shall be<br />
as strong as iron, inasmuch as iron breaks<br />
in pieces and shatters everything; and like<br />
iron that crushes, that kingdom will break in<br />
pieces and crush all the others.<br />

This gives a total of 483 years, leaving one week (or one<br />

however, it would not be easy. There would be times of<br />
