Bible In The News

For over a century our community has been watching and waiting for a situation of peace and prosperity to come to the regathered Jewish people living upon the mountains of Israel. This expectation has been drawn from a number of Bible prophecies, one of the more frequently referred to is the prophecy of Ezekiel 38. Ezekiel 38 comes near the end of a series of chapters that are prophecies of restoration of the Jewish people. This section leads into the final section of Ezekiel describing the glorious future temple, which is to be a house of prayer for all nations. A transformed land is described with water issuing forth from the temple sanctuary and healing the waters of the salt sea. These prophecies clearly were intended to describe the final return of the Jewish people to the land, when the Messiah would come and deliver the nation.
