• This article should be entirely unnecessary because it expresses a Biblical teaching that is so obvious that it seems impossible to miss. Unfortunately, recent years have revealed that many professing Christians are deeply confused about what Scripture teaches regarding the Jewish people. Instead, they seem to base their views on whatever theological and geopolitical ideas are popular in the moment.

  • Dispensational Premillennialism distinctly holds that God has a positive future for the nation of Israel yet to be realized in the Millennium, the 1,000-year reign of Jesus Christ on Earth. The church has not replaced Israel. God’s promises to Abraham and David still hold.

  • Prophecy News Watch — New figures released by Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics estimate the worldwide Jewish population at approximately 15.9 million.
