Matthew 24:21-22

Yes — and who is Jesus talking about in that passage? “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted... ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.”
— Matthew 24:9 He’s talking to His disciples — not the Sanhedrin. Not the Knesset and not a future secular state.


This tribulation affects believers, saints, the elect (True Israel) — not just the land of False Israel™. Later in the same chapter: “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”
— Matthew 24:13 This is about faithful endurance, not national ethnic destiny. - The tribulation is about the final clash between the saints and the Beast, not "refining modern Israel".

Jesus returns to save His Bride, not to install a third temple to begin slaughtering animals or fulfill some Scofield, dream-board delusion.

Elevating ethnic Israel above Christ is not theology — it’s idolatry.

These Dispensationalist evangelicals are so thoroughly brainwashed, they don’t even realize they are Israel.

Not modern geography.
Not a secular government.
Not a group of Eastern European converts backed by U.N. paperwork and Rothschild money.

The Body of Christ is Israel.
The true sons of Abraham are those who are in Christ — not those with a passport from Tel Aviv.

Scripture says it plainly:

“And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”

Galatians 3:29

“He is not a Jew, which is one outwardly… but he is a Jew, which is one inwardly… in the spirit.”
Romans 2:28–29

“They which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.”
Galatians 3:7

So no — Israel is not a modern political state founded in 1948 by atheists and international bankers.
And it’s certainly not a collection of Eastern European identity thieves whose bloodline traces back to Khazar converts, not to Abraham.

The Church is the Israel of God — the remnant, the elect, the Bride.

If you’re in Christ… you are Israel.

If you reject Christ… you are cut off from the covenant — no matter what blood runs in your veins. Romans 9:6–8 (KJV), Romans 11:19–22 (KJV), Galatians 3:7 (KJV), Galatians 3:29 (KJV), Philippians 3:3 (KJV), Ephesians 2:12–13 (KJV), Galatians 6:15–16 (KJV)

The great multitude seen in heaven came OUT OF the Great Tribulation, meaning they were in it!
These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. REV. 7:14
But listen, keep your view, one of many.
Check out John's uses of "ek" and "apo", he frequently switched them. Just sayin'.

And you can keep your view also! Isn't that nice of me?

Much love!
