Welcome to Bible Believers Fellowship and the ministry of bbfohio.com. I'm Pastor Greg and I welcome you to our 18th study in our Israel and the Jews series. This study is part one of God's future promises for the nation of Israel as we begin in Deuteronomy chapter 30 verses 1 through 10. All right, tonight we're going to start a study, may go two, may go three, I don't know. We'll see. God's future promises for the nation of Israel. I have part one up there, of course. Deuteronomy chapter 30. We're going to read the first 10 verses there. This is our 18th installment of our Israel series. We've come full circle and discussed God's promises to Israel. Read the even verses. I'll begin in verse 1. And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the Lord thy God hath driven thee, and shalt return unto the Lord thy God, and shalt obey his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart and with all thy soul, "'that then the Lord thy God will turn thy captivity "'and have compassion upon thee, "'and will return and gather thee from all the nations, "'whither the Lord thy God hath scattered thee. "'If any of thine be driven out "'unto the outmost parts of heaven, "'from thence will the Lord thy God gather thee, "'and from thence will he fetch thee. "'And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land "'which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it. and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers. And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live. And the Lord thy God will put all these curses upon thine enemies, and on them that hate thee which persecuted thee. And thou shalt return and obey the voice of the Lord, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day. And the Lord thy God will make thee plenteous in every work of thine hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy land, for good. for the Lord will again rejoice over thee for good as he rejoiced over thy fathers. If thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law, and if thou turn unto the Lord thy God with all thine heart and with all thy soul, amen. So we look at these verses, verses 1 through 3 could be limited to the regathering that set the stage for the first advent of Jesus. That is fine, but verse 4 clearly speaks of a captivity, but let me say it again, not of a captivity, but of diaspora. The difference of captivity is when they were all taken off to Babylon. Diaspora is when they were scattered around the world. And that's what we read there in verse 4. If any of thine be driven out unto the outmost parts of heaven, from thence will the Lord thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee. That's not captivity there, that's talking about the diaspora, it's what it's called, when the Jews have been for 2,000 years spread all over the globe, really, almost every nation. This then describes the process in place right now. as Jews are regathered in preparation for the revival in Israel when Jesus returns. In verse, it goes, obviously you remember when Jesus came the first time, they didn't exactly obey the Lord. They killed him in the flesh. So that hasn't happened yet. This is all talking about something yet to happen. When he regathers them from all over the world, and that time, this time that he's talking about, when that happens, they're going to follow the Lord. They're going to obey the Lord. So verse 5 there says, And the Lord thy God will bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed. And that's what all this in the news is about. God is bringing them back into the land in preparation for the final seven years and the return of Jesus Christ, and Satan doesn't like it, and Satan's children don't like it. And so all these people turning on Israel, turning on the Jews, they're showing you what spirit they have. It says, and he will do thee good and multiply thee above thy fathers. So this, verse 5, 4 and 5, is taking place now, and then in the near future, verse 6, it says, and the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart. When did he do that? He hasn't. People try to say this happened at the first coming. It didn't happen at the first coming. They rejected their Messiah and killed him. They weren't circumcised in heart. But there's coming a day when Israel will be circumcised in... God says, I will circumcise thine heart and the heart of thy seed. Why? For a thousand years they're going to keep having babies and those babies are going to have a circumcised heart. To love the Lord thy God with all thine heart and with all thy soul that thou mayest live Numerous prophecies are given to describe this moment when Jesus the Messiah returns and God will circumcise the Jews' heart. We've read this many moons ago, I believe, but Zechariah. Go to Zechariah. Of course, it's coming up in our annual reading soon. Zechariah 12, beginning of verse 9. And it says, and it shall come to pass in that day. So obviously, this is future from Zechariah's perspective. That I will seek to destroy all the nations, plural, that come against Jerusalem. But that isn't what happened at Jesus' first coming. There's only one nation that came against the Jews and Israel at the first coming. Which one was that? Rome. Verse 10. Go ahead and read that with me. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and of supplications. And they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourneth for his only Son, and shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. When did that happen? It didn't happen. When they killed Him, they weren't mourning. They were celebrating. And then when he was risen from the dead, what did they do? They still rejected him. No mourning, M-O-U-R-N, mourn. Verse 11, again, this is tied to what? In that day there shall be a great mourning, M-O-U-R, in Jerusalem as the mourning of Hadadurman in the valley of Megiddon, which is Armageddon. and the land shall mourn every family apart, the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart, the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart, the family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart, the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart, all the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart. That has never happened. It's still future. So, this that we're reading in Zechariah 12, when they look upon Him whom they pierced, is the second coming of Jesus Christ, and it's the moment described by Paul in Romans 11 that we've read a few times. Let's go there again. Romans 11. Romans 11, 25 to 27. For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery." It's not a mystery now because Paul's telling us about it. It was a mystery up to this point. It was a mystery until the New Testament was given. Now it's not a mystery unless you just refuse to believe what you read. "...lest ye should be wise in your own conceits, that blindness in part is happened to Israel." So Israel can't be the church. Is the church blind? Not the true church. Not the real church. until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in, and then this is what's tied to Zechariah 12, when they look upon him whom they perished, read 26 and 27 with me. And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written, there shall come out of Zion the deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob, for this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. Israel can't be the church. Israel isn't saved yet. The church is saved. This is talking about future salvation of Israel, and it is when He takes away their sins. Future. It says, when I shall take away their sins. Future. If you're in the church, your sins are already taken away. The true church is spotless. You don't have sin. It's made up of sinners, saved by grace, born again. And then when we are raptured, we get a glorified, sinless body. We no longer sin. Don't have to worry about it ever again. Something different between the church and Israel, even still, as Paul wrote this. Amen? Now, I want to look at it also, this is tied in with Revelation 12. When Zechariah says to look upon him whom they pierce, And they'll mourn as for an only son. And Paul says, all Israel shall be saved. That is when they take away their sins. That's when they have the circumcision of the heart that we read about in Deuteronomy. It all happens, this is all the same event. Revelation 12, verse 6, and the woman we talked about is Israel. Go to Genesis 39, and you'll see the connection to the woman here, and we've talked about that in previous studies. We don't have time to review everything in every study. And the woman, Israel, fled into the wilderness. We believe that's the wilderness of Sierra Petra. Where she hath a place prepared of God. Have you ever seen Petra? You ought to watch our documentary we have over here on it. It's amazing. It's prepared and ready. That they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and three score years. That just happens to be three and a half years. This is going to come at the three-and-a-half-year midpoint of the seven-year tribulation, and for three-and-a-half years, Israel will hide down in Petra, in the wilderness of Seir, and be protected by God. And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels. Charlie and Ginny and I had a little conversation about Michael and Gabriel, and I hadn't really thought about this clearly myself when I was talking to him. You can really make a difference. The main difference is Michael's the fighter and Gabriel's the talker. Michael's the one who fights. Gabriel's the one who always shows up with a message. The word angel, by the way, doesn't mean messenger. That's a misnomer. Scholars said, well, every time we see an angel, he's got a message. Not every time. That's how they came up with that definition for angel. An angel is more than just a messenger. And Michael is a fighter. And the dragon, of course, we've talked about, is Satan. Also, it says the dragon fought and his angels. That's the dragon's angels, the fallen angels. Verse 8, 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. That tells you who the dragon is right there. And Satan, which deceiveth the whole world, he was cast out into the earth and his angels were cast out with him. So these are going to come to the planet earth, folks. There's going to be an alien invasion. The aliens are fallen angels. I believe aliens right now are devils. I do not believe they're from another planet. I believe they're from another dimension. They are fallen angels or demons is what people call them, but the biblical word, King James Bible calls them devils, small D. There's big D devil, that's Lucifer, Satan, the dragon. And then there's little D, all these other devils, his angels. In verse 10, And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ. For the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. It tells you what Satan's busy doing right now. Read verse 11 with me. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death. So this is when, in Revelation 12, when Jesus returns at the end of that three and a half year period, that he is going to save Israel as Paul talked about it in Romans 11, 25 through 27. And what's it say? They overcome him by the blood of the lamb. At this point, they are now believers. And they have a circumcision of the heart. And that's why they're mourning. Because how many of you, when you got saved, had a period of mourning and then rejoicing? Because the mourning comes, M-O-U-R, I have to keep saying that, M-O-U-R-N, mourning, because you realize your sin is what put Jesus on the cross. And your sin is what has separated you from God. And the older I think people are, the more they even look back and see the wasted years. And then they even think of the people they might have been such terrible influence on, and may have been driven to hell. All those things come crashing down at the point when you realize you need to be saved. the salvation moment, the new birth, when you're born again and you receive the Holy Spirit, and now there's that burden is lifted, when your sins are forgiven, and now you have this amazing freedom. The entire nation of Israel is going to go through that at one time. All the living Jews down there in the wilderness are all going to have this experience on the same day. be the biggest crusade, evangelistic crusade. Now, I gotta say this. The ridiculously dumb response to these texts is to say, that's Old Testament. There isn't one verse in the New Testament telling us to support the nation of Israel. I get this at least every few weeks, but since we've been putting these videos out, I get it more often. Show me the one verse in the New Testament that tells us we're supposed to support Israel. Well, first of all, in regarding the statement, that's Old Testament. Yeah. Only a nincompoop would think that the Old Testament is no longer to be believed. And Romans 15.4, we're told, for whatsoever things were written aforetime, and he's talking about the Old Testament. were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. So whatever's written in the Old Testament, of course you have to be careful in rightly dividing it and putting it in context. We've talked about how there are promises made to people, like Jeremiah we're studying. In Jeremiah, he's given promises we're not giving. Jeremiah's told, hey, I'm not going to let them kill you. I'm sorry, but God has not told anybody in this room that he won't let somebody kill you. I don't say this in any way to be, you know, putting anybody down, but I believe Charlie Kirk, his bad theology might have got him killed. I'm not doing a Cane to Sorens up there, up here. I believe that that Tyler reprobate killed him and all that, but what caused the security lapse that day? And if you listen, you're going to hear, because I've already heard it, that Charlie was a little cavalier about security. It's because of the bad theology. And I really believe that he believed that God wouldn't let anybody kill him. A lot of people think, you know, hey, they tried to kill Trump, and that happened. He turned at the right moment, and it flicked his ear instead of going in his skull. That was the hand of God. It could have been, but it doesn't mean he'll do that for you. It still means you should be vigilant. You should, you know, don't, God's not going to let anything happen to my family. We don't even lock our doors anymore. You can tell everybody. I don't care who knows. I think if they tried to come in my house, God would kill them as soon as they tried to enter the door. He hasn't told you that. He hasn't told anybody that. And I believe that Charlie Kirk is like, and I think there's a lot of Christians, there are Christian women who go into places they shouldn't go, they go without any protection, they don't have a gun, they don't have mace, they don't have anybody with them, and they just, almost daring God by saying, I just trust the Lord. He hasn't told any of you women in this room, and men as well, that you can go into bad neighborhoods without any means of protecting yourself, and you're not gonna get hurt. And so if anybody calls me up and says so-and-so was in this neighborhood, I don't care where you're at. You can be walking down Worthington. You don't have any means of protecting yourself. You're just a victim waiting to happen. And so if I get that call, I'm going to say, well that's too bad, but I tried to tell them. That's all I can do. Try to warn people. People try to tell Charlie. Charlie, you need to step up the security, man. Oh, we're doing good. I trust my guys and this and that. But you hear him talking and you hear what other people heard him say, that's called misappropriation of God's promises. God might have promised Jeremiah they're not going to kill you. That doesn't apply to us. And when it comes to the Old Testament, God's made promises to Israel. They're not the church's promises. They're still Israel's promises. He hasn't nullified them. He hasn't cancelled them. So even if it's in the Old Testament, it's still true. Amen? Secondly, regarding the statement, there's not one New Testament verse telling us to support Israel. No, not in so many words. I want to say this, I told one fellow on YouTube, he posted that question, I said, there's not a verse in the New Testament telling you to use the internet. And I know you're going to think I'm gross, but I believe in just putting it to people in real terms. There's not a verse in the Bible telling you not to eat a turd. So why aren't you? Same reason. Because it would be stupid to do so. Why do I support Israel? It would be stupid not to. Why? We're told what God's will is. We're told what God is going to do with Israel. And we're told He will destroy those who oppose Him. So if you take it that as not one verse in the New Testament telling us to support Israel, then join Israel's enemies and see how that works out for you. Because God didn't put it in black and white, you must support Israel in those words? You're going to ignore His promises to Israel, His promise to curse those who curse Israel? Old Testament. Alright, do it. Don't be standing anywhere near me. I don't want the lightning bolt to, you know, spread out and hit me in the process. Now it may not, it's not necessarily going to be a lightning bolt, I'm just using that as a kind of, but I believe God's Word, I believe He's going to curse you. You curse Israel, you don't, if you're not supporting Israel, I don't see many people in the middle. It's like you're either supporting Israel or you get on that dumb bandwagon that Tucker Carlson and these guys are on now. You ever notice that? It's one of those issues that people don't take a middle road on. At this point, God's future promises to Israel go into full effect at the end of the tribulation when Jesus returns. That's when it's a time for cashing in on the promises. Not before then. It's the same thing about us as Christians. We've got so much ahead of us, but if you start trying to get it now, remember that video clip I showed of Benny Hinn, where he was saying, everyone talks about the streets of gold and all the gold and everything in heaven. I don't need gold then, I need it now, I want it now. You remember that? Well, that's the kind of nut you'll turn into. You start thinking like that, you'll be just like Benny. So at this second coming of Jesus is when all those promises then go into effect. You know, I've told you this, the word of faith people, name it and claim it people and all that, they're not wrong, they're just wrong about when they're supposed to get all that. During the millennium, I mean, it's gonna be better than the word faith people ever dreamed. But you're trying to have it, I like Ruckman, he says, the Pope's not wrong about being infallible, He's just wrong about the fact that number one, you gotta be saved, which they're not, and number two, it's in the millennium when you're infallible. That's when we no longer sin and say things we shouldn't say, and everything we say is gonna be true. So Deuteronomy 31-10 described the promise of land to the nation of Israel. I'm not going to go back and read it again for sake of time, but you remember Genesis 12-1 said, Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, which was in the land of the Chaldeans, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a what? Land that I will show you. So it's a land promise, and the Bible says, right now they've got a tiny sliver of the land. You ain't seen nothing yet. We've shown you, I should have got the screenshot out, but the land that Israel's going to have is about ten times what they have now, at least. Huh? Yeah, they have a tithe of their land right now. Israel was promised to become a nation, And this then was connected to having a king and the king became known as Hamashiach, Messiah. And that's verse 2 in Genesis 12. And I will make of thee a great what? Nation. So dumb. These guys say, well that promise was just to Abraham. It was that he would become a great nation and the promise is to that nation. And I will bless thee, and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a blessing, and this Messiah would save Jew and Gentile. That's in the original promise to Abraham. While blessing those who bless his chosen nation. Don't miss that. We emphasize the first half of verse 3. And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee, and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. out of every tribe, tongue, and nation, saved by the blood of Jesus Christ. The moment Israel turns to Jesus Christ, or Christ Jesus, as I have there, but Messiah is Christ, Christ is Messiah, at His return is the moment their hearts are circumcised and they're given a new heart. I want to look at that. Jeremiah 31. I always wondered where Bob got his last name, because it's such a great name. Bob Newhart. Where'd that name come from? You ever wondered where some of these nasty names come from? Bob Newhart. The Bible talks about the Jews getting a new heart. We have a new heart. Jeremiah 31, and verse 31, and he says, through 34, but 31 says, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel. That's not with the church. It's with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, referring to the two kingdoms, the northern kingdom and the southern kingdom. Verse 32, he specifies, not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which my covenant they break, although I was a husband under them, saith the Lord. He's not talking about a Mosaic covenant. There's gonna be a new covenant with the house of Israel. Verse 33, read 33 with me. But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts and will be their God and they shall be my people. That has never happened. Still future. Read 34 with me. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord. For they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. That's what Paul was talking about in Romans 11, verse 27 specifically. This has not happened. And if this is the church, then why are we here? If this is the church, it says they'll teach no more every man his neighbor. We don't need to have teaching. You don't need to be here. If this is the church, what's wrong with you people? You should already know all this. Amen? Obviously it's not to the church. God's plan is for the Messiah of Israel to rule as King of Israel and King of Kings. Go back to Isaiah. I just want to run a couple more references here. Isaiah 49, beginning verse 22. Yeah, 49. 22. We'll read through 22 and 23. Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to thee, Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people, and they shall bring thy sons, that's Israel, in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. You see what's going on there? That's the Gentiles escorting the Jews. Read 23 with me. And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers. They shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth and lick up the dust of thy feet. And thou shalt know that I am the Lord, for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me. The Jews that'll turn to the Lord and those who are saved at their second coming with Christ and then their children and their children, that's telling you, this is why people who are filled with the devil and they hate the Jews and they hate Israel, they hate the Bible and they really hate the Old Testament. Because this tells us right here that in the millennium, you can be a king but you will serve the Jew. Think of that. Now, of course, it's not talking about us, the believers. We're going to be raptured, glorified. We're going to rule and reign with Christ. But among the mortal population of the millennium, the Gentile nations will actually serve the Jews and Israel. That explains what's going to happen at the end of the millennium. You either love the Lord and be happy to serve or bitterness and wrath and you'll be a part of that rebellion at the end of the millennium. I'm sorry, I didn't put that up there. That's why Mary was asking, wasn't it? Israel's going to be, as it says in Deuteronomy, the head of the nations. And that is what the Jew haters can't stand. The Bible teaches that Israel will lead all nations during that messianic kingdom. Let's look at Deuteronomy 28. We already read 1-10 in Deuteronomy 30. There's many more, of course, and we're going to run references in our next study or two. But Deuteronomy 28, verse 13. 13 and 14. Go ahead and read both verses with me. and thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day to the right hand or to the left to go after other gods to serve them." Notice the emphatic statement there. He's not asking them. He's telling them. In the Millennium, you're not going to go astray. Well, we'll see why in just a minute. Israel's Messiah, who of course we know now to be Jesus, will rule and judge producing prosperity and peace for Israel and the world at large. Look at Isaiah 2. We've got two more references we want to look at and we're done. Isaiah 2, 1-5, the word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. and it shall come to pass in the last days. So anybody that thinks sense knows what he's talking about there. And we're talking about the millennium. That the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains. We talked about how Jerusalem is going to be the peak Everyone's going to come up to Jerusalem. It's going to be because there's going to be this reworking of the earth and everything. More about that later. But it says, "...and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it." I think that's literally true. And then look what it says in verse 3. And many people shall go and say, come ye and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob and he will teach us of his ways and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. Read four with me. And he shall judge among the nations and shall rebuke many people and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nations shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore. The United Nations only quotes from the word, and they shall beat their swords on. They leave out the part about God judging the nations in that sad and stupid. And then verse five, O house of Jacob, come ye and let us walk in the light of the Lord. The Lord is going to rule, and he is going to rule. Not like he is now. He's actually kind of permissive, really. He lets you sin. I mean, he chastises you, but he lets it happen. In the Millennium, you go trying to sin, that's called suicide. We've looked at that in our Isaiah studies. Jesus, King of Israel, will reign and rule with a rod of iron. and Gentiles will serve the Jewish king. Let's go to Revelation. Actually, I said two references, but we have two books. This is our second book, and we're going to look at a couple places here. Revelation 2, 26 and 27. And he that overcometh and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations. That's us, we're ruling and reigning with him. Read 27. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers, even as I received of my father. And there's a lot more to that, but that tells you the kingdom rule will be a rod of iron. He's gonna use us, by the way. We're going to be law enforcement officers, LEOs. Look at Revelation 12. We already read some below this. And there appeared a great wanderer in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars, Israel. And she, being with child, cried, travailing in birth and pain to be delivered. Of course, that's Israel bringing forth the Messiah. Of course, Mary was the particular mother of The Lord, and in verse 3 says, And there appeared another wonder in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads, and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. Read 4 with me. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and it cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. What did Herod do? Remember? Killed all the innocents. Tried to kill Jesus. Wanted to devour the baby as soon as he was born. But look at verse 5, read that. And she brought forth a man-child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her child was caught up unto God to His throne. It's how prophecy isn't always in chronological order. He's going to rule. He could have already ruled, but because he was rejected, not only killed, but even 40 days, he ascended to heaven, and throughout the book of Acts, it's still the nation of Israel rejecting him. But he's going to rule the nations with a rod of iron, but he was caught up under God and to his throne in Acts 1 in the meantime. Anyway, one more. Revelation 19, and then we'll close. Revelation 19. through 16, And I saw heaven open, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns, and he had a name written that no man knew but he himself. And he was clothed with the vesture, dipped in blood, and his name was called the Word of God. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. This is Jesus. Verse 14 says, And the armies, that's us, which were in heaven, followed him upon white horses clothed in fine linen, white and clean, now read 15 with me, and out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword that with it he should smite the nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God, and he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords. We can see over and over, right here in the New Testament, Jesus is going to rule with a rod of iron that matches the prophets of the Old Testament who foretold of the same conditions during that millennial messianic kingdom. And what a lot of Christians refuse to recognize or want to lose sight of is He's king of Israel. And He is ruling the nation that is the head of all nations.
