Israel And Its Borders

And this good news of the kingdom (the Gospel) will be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then will come the end. Matthew 24:14


President Obama asked Israel yesterday to pull its borders back to what they were in 1967. People instantly began talking about the end times. The Truth is very clear in the Bible, the end of this age is not dictated by borders, wars, catastrophes, or the actions of man. The end of this generation of the world is dictated by our Father. Our Lord, Who is One with our Father, told us that the only true sign of the end, was when the Gospel of the Kingdom is preached to every nation.


The Gospel of the Kingdom is not just telling people about Jesus. When Jesus told the Disciples to go and preach the Kingdom was at hand, they were not just sent to preach about Jesus. They were empowered to lay hands on the sick and they were directed to cast out demons, Luke 10:8-10. Jesus tells us that there will always be wars, there will always be natural catastrophes, and there will always be diseases, Matthew 24:6. But there is coming a time when the Gospel will be preached with power and demonstration throughout every nation, tribe, and to every tongue at one time. There is a time when our Father will use us to do the works that Jesus did and even greater ones, John 14:12. There is coming a time when we are used so much by our Father that the world actually begins to say that things are peaceful and that we are all finally safe, 1 Thessalonians 5:3. When you see these events happen, then look for the Great Tribulation to begin, and then 3 1/2 years later, our Lord will return.
