and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry
I conjecture that when this anti-Christ globalist world system (USA/UN) or whoever divides or causes the undoing of that restoration from 1967 (of Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria) that this will be when the end will come.
It will follow after that turning point, that event will be a major prophetic event.
I don’t know how soon, it could be months or years but once it happens when Israel agrees for its ‘peace and security’ to sign or confirm a covenant with hell. We’re told in Isaiah Chapter 28 that they are ‘in agreement’ however once it occurs I believe the end of the age will follow that event,
I do not believe it can be forced or Satan would’ve done it already or perhaps being withheld by the Holy Spirit until after 49 years and a Jubilee year had passed from Jerusalem being restored, though we need to watch prayerfully and consider if the almost tacit acknowledgement of Israels elected leaders over the years, those like Peres and Rabin, Barak, Herzog and Livni have themselves accomplished as much already allowing a confluence of events to bring us prophetically to Psalm 2 right now, today.
Once it does happen (at some future point) it will become very bad for this world,
Satan is attempting to keep the Earth for himself. God is bringing ‘the transgressors’ (Israel) back to the land and restoring them via so many prophecies and Jubilee promises that it would be difficult to assemble them all, which as these are fulfilled also means that Satan’s time is short and that his kingdom will come down over the Earth,
We are watching ‘principalities and powers’ at work, these Assembly’s of world leaders and secret schemings and meetings and taking ‘crafty counsels’ are all the result of intensifying spiritual warfare,
This is how I believe it unfolds:
There will be an all out push for all nations to recognize Palestine and divide Jerusalem Judea and Samaria.
God restored Israel in 1948 and then restored Jerusalem (Judea and Samaria) in 1967 and we know from scripture that at some point this world and Israel will agree to undo that promise.
At the time of the end, Jerusalem will become a burdensome stone bringing destruction “upon them all”
We are commanded to watch, to be awake and to be armed with the knowledge of the truth in the Spirit, his Spirit. Jesus himself said to pray that we are accounted worthy to escape ‘all these things’ which are coming upon the Earth to test those that dwell here. the ‘Earth dwellers.’
God owns the land and is the owner of the vineyard. He gave authority over it to Adam who very soon after gave that same authority to Satan.
Jesus came as the second Adam to acknowledge the authority of his Fathers vineyard but the wicked tenets sought to keep it for themselves. They killed the owners son.
They meant it for evil but God meant it for good.
The end comes as the final arbitration and fulfillment of the timing element of the promises of the law, having gone from the Earth and Israel, into transgression, then judgement and diaspora as a flood, to the timing of that judgement reaching its conclusion just as the 70 years were finally up when Israel was sent to Babylon, then 2520 years later to their restoration in our time for both Israel as a ‘people’ and later and again for 2520 years for Jerusalem as ‘thy Holy city.’
Satan has legal authority on this physical Earth until the time of the end and (I believe) until three conditions are met and broken:
1 – Israel and Jerusalem are both restored, together providing the two conditions required from Daniel Chapter 9 to count the time (determined upon Israel) 70 weeks or 490 years. 434 years were counted at the cross, (‘after 62 weeks’ Messiah is cutoff) where the 49 years were accepted by Jesus but rejected by Israel and instead brought the Gospel to the Gentiles, the Gospel is the Jubilee, leaving another 49 years (a future Jubilee) and then the final seven years (2520 days) remaining, for which today we recognize as the tribulation or the time of ‘Jacobs Trouble’ (434 + 49 + 7 = 490 years) with the last half (3.5 years being what Jesus himself called the “great tribulation”)
2 – a Jubilee is acknowledged in Heaven following the legal conditions being met precisely per Leviticus Chapter 25: “when you come into the land that I shall give you..” then count seven times seven years (49 years) and only God can know when this time is acceptable to him, however this can only be enacted on a future Yom Kippur, on the 10th day of the seventh Month. It will follow in a certain time after, when its clear that it is not being kept (I suspect it to be at a minimum of 1290 days as when Jesus declared the Jubilee and read from Isaiah 61 then counting the days to the Cross and Resurrection or to a maximum of a generational timeline that will not pass away until this same generation ‘sees all these things fulfilled’ just as Jesus prophesied)
3 – The Holy covenant is broken, hindered, encumbered in some manner between this world and a restored Israel via an agreement, that is, Israel is divided, Jerusalem is divided or both, the restoration under the law and the transgressors being brought back under it is being undone, Satan is seeking to change the set times and seasons, to extend his ownership outside the limiting mechanism of the Holy Laws and Ordinances enacted on the Earth and over the Earth, the very ones which provided for the coming of the Messiah in all manner of Holiness and provided the punitive measures enacted against the transgressors of that Law (Israel of 32 AD) and then finally to prevent or encumber the completion of the second restoration occurring even now today in our time which Satan knows will bring his end if left unchallenged or unbroken,
I conjecture it is the attempted undoing of that authority on the physical Earth, the breaking of the ‘Everlasting Covenant’ (see Isaiah Chapter 24) that brings the time of the end and it comes I believe as whats being adjudicated beginning in Revelation Chapter 4, where the “court will sit” (see also Daniel Chapter 7) and where Jesus takes the scroll, the title deed to the Earth from the right hand of the Father. Whereby he assumes legal ownership over the physical Earth (or over all of his creation)
Jesus, as our second Adam returning bodily when the fullness of time is reached (a Jubilee) coming again as the only one able to redeem it (and us) from the rightful owner (God) the whole of creation, granted under the Law as a Kinsman of Adam, being a man (see the Book of Ruth) Jesus is our Boaz, the Church is his Gentile bride (Ruth) and Noami is Israel,
Jesus is taking his authority using the very Laws and Ordinances which were implemented upon the physical Earth which allowed him to come in a Holy manner (in the flesh) and then to be be rejected by Israel (in the flesh) who then purchased the Gentiles into the Kingdom of Heaven (by the Spirit) and then ultimately provides that very mechanism to redeem the physical creation during the restoration of all things, (using again another future Jubilee)
This is done to legally reclaim his inheritance which was stolen from him:
“Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill: And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.
What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down: And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.
For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.” Isaiah Chapter 5:1-7
Jesus came on a Wednesday, in the middle of a week, to do the will of his Father, to claim his fathers ownership but was rejected, he was the legal heir and the wicked tenets stole it from him,
“Then the owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.’ But when the tenants saw him, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, so that the inheritance may be ours.” Luke 20:13-15
Peter speaks of Jesus: “Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.” Acts 3:21 (again, its the Jubilee)
But unlike the first time, when Jesus declared the Jubilee reading from Isaiah Chapter 61 and stopped before reading ‘and the day of vengeance of our God’
“For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.” Isaiah 63:4 (a Jubilee is come)
Satan has access to Heaven (accusing the brethren) until he attempts to break the legal restoration, which is tied to the physical land as much as it is to the people (Israel) following the (second) restoration under the very same Law that took them away as with a flood in 70 AD,
Jesus told unbelieving Israel, your house is left desolate because you knew not ‘the time of your visitation’ the evening and morning oblations were him and they were stopped, the first and last, Alpha and Omega,
Israel at the time of the end will make a covenant with death, Satan is a liar and usurper, this is why I believe the tribulation begins after this major event – dividing the restored land,
“And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; . .” Isaiah 28:18
At this time the war in Heaven begins and Satan is thrown out (forever) by Michael, he is accusing the bretheren but there are none any longer operating in that condition to accuse in his dominion (the Earth for the next 1,260 days)
“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceive the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:7-10
“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.” Psalm 2:1-3
“And both these kings’ hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table; but it shall not prosper: for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.” Daniel 11:27
“For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.” Joel 3:1-2
