The study of biblical prophecy can become a life-long project and joy. It can also be the source of much confusion and even controversy. As anyone knows who has spent much time studying the doctrine of eschatology, or last things, there is considerable debate over the proper way to interpret these Scriptures. This debate exists even among evangelical Christians who hold to the inerrancy of the Bible. Such is the difficulty of the task.
While a study of the end times is not the purpose of this article, it is helpful to understand the context of where our discussion will go. A proper study of eschatology requires the harmonizing of relevant passages from both the Old and New Testaments. Just reading Revelation doesn’t cut it. Scriptures that inform this study are scattered throughout the Bible, although some books address the topic more thoroughly.
Another decision the interpreter encounters is determining when passages are meant to be taken literally and when they are symbolic. Or maybe even both. Figures of speech are used, just as we use them in our normal conversations. How should those be interpreted? More to the point of this article, how should we take the numbers that are used in prophetic passages? Again, even those evangelicals who uphold the doctrine of inerrancy can still differ, hopefully in a friendly way, on the proper methods of interpretation.
So what are some prophecy scholars saying now in the light of some remarkable happenings in our world? More on page two.
I know but there is a gap called the time of the gentiles. This covers the time in which God is dealing with the gentiles. When the time of the gentiles is fulfilled (after two thousand years) prophetic time dealing with Israel will pick up again. If you remember in the prophecies of old God jumps from one dispensations to another all in the same context. He is not bound by time. When we see this 7 year treaty signed in which Israel is allowed to rebuild her third temple that will be the beginning of the tribulation period. You are aware that Israel has all of the things for the temple already and is having red heifers breed for the dedication.

Who the$#%&!@*came up with this incoherent bulkshit?
well Israel pushing they are the chosen ones and favorite of God. Now if they works Israel can even take over the World or at lease what they want. What has always been interesting is even when visiting Israel how Abraham had two sons blessed by God. Ishmael who’s Mom was from Egypt and Isaac who;s Mom was Sarah a Jewish lady.
It’s funny most Americans don’t realize many Palestinians are actually Christians. You can find plenty of videos on YouTube of israeli jews throwing rocks at Christians and cursing them. They’re$#%&!@*
Jesus spent most of his time fighting the jews and said they were of the devil. lol
