What is the position of Israel in accomplishing the bible prophecies of the end times?

Answer 1

According to Bible prophecy... both Israel... and Judah [the Jews]... will return to captivity in the "end times" of man's rule on the earth. And the returning Jesus Christ, the King, will bring a remnant of them [and other nations] out of the death throes of the Great Tribulation.

That's how Israel will "accomplish" their role in the "end times."

"...lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will BRING AGAIN THE CAPTIVITY OF MY PEOPLE ISRAEL AND JUDAH, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it." (Jer.30:3)

"Alas! For that Day is Great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it." (Jer.30:7)

In other words - the modern descendants of ancient Israel, who are reestablished in the world today as their own nations, many of whom believe themselves to be Gentiles, are prophesied to undergo a second latter day "exodus"... not from Egypt this time... but from a fast-approaching "global captivity."

"...behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be said, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; but, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel FROM THE LAND OF THE NORTH, AND FROM ALL THE LANDS WHITHER HE HAD DRIVEN THEM: and I will bring them again into their own land that I gave unto their fathers.

"Behold, I will send MANY FISHERS, saith the Lord, and THEY SHALL FISH THEM;..."

["...and Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for THEY WERE FISHERS. And He said unto them, Follow Me, and I WILL MAKE YOU FISHERS OF MEN." - Matt.4:18-19]

"...and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks." (Jer.16:14-16)

"...He had opened the SIXTH SEAL, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; and the stars of heaven fell unto the earth... and the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, HID THEMSELVES in the dens and IN THE ROCKS OF THE MOUNTAINS; and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from THE WRATH OF THE LAMB: for the GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH IS COME; and who shall be able to stand?" (Rev.6:12-17)

Ultimately... it's not like any nation, by their own will or power, will "accomplish" the end time prophecies. It will be Jesus Christ, returning IN POWER, who shall "accomplish" and fulfill the prophecies:

"...and then shall all the tribes [nations: HIDING IN THE ROCKS OF THE MOUNTAINS] of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven WITH POWER and great glory." (Matt.24:30)

"For Mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from My face, neither is their iniquity hid from Mine eyes. And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled My land, they have filled Mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things... the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit... behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know Mine hand and My might; and THEY SHALL KNOW THAT MY NAME IS THE LORD." (Jer.16:17-21)

Prophecy will not be fulfilled and accomplished until the all the nations of the earth SEE JESUS RETURNING IN THE CLOUDS.

But, the modern descendants of Israel, Judah [the Jews], and all the other Satan-guided nations of the world... in their ignorance of God's Truth and their forsaking of His ways... will accomplish their part in end time prophecy by plunging the world headlong into the prophesied Great Tribulation - the time of "Jacob's trouble"... a day like no other in history, just before Jesus MUST return.

"For then shall be Great Tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened." (Matt.24:21-22)
