OMG! Literally! Last night I studied at the World Mission Society Church of God (again of course I must specify) about the 2nd Coming Christ – when He would come! So remember last time that I studied that Christ would come a second time in the flesh, not in the actual clouds? Well it turns out that the entire history of the Jews was contolled by God only to let us know when Christ would come a second time!
IT’S SO AMAZING!!! Have you ever heard of the fig tree parable?
Matt. 24:32 “Now learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its branches bud and its leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near. 33 In the same way, when you see all these things, you can know his return is very near, right at the door.” (NLT)
= 
If you notice, the fig tree is growing, but when we see this we can know Christ’s return. Do’t be fooled, it’s not a real fig tree. Christ is not coming back every spring. LOL!
I didn’t know before that the fig tree actually represents Israel. Take a look at Jer. 24:5; just as figs come from a fig tree, so the people of Judah come from Israel. What’s crazy is that the fig tree parable says to “cut down the fig tree.”
Luke 13:6 Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree, planted in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it, but did not find any. 7So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, ‘For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’
Cut down Israel? YES! In history the country of Israel was completely destroyed and there was a point when the Jews didn’t have a country of their own for a long time. But I saw in the history book that Israel was declared a country again in 1948. I wish I remembered the name of the book I saw it in, I’m gonna ask them when I go back.
But the reason it was so important to know when Israel was destroyed was to know when it would grow up again (I’m trying to remember the lesson as it was taught to me, it was so cool!) The year that Israel becomes a country is the same time that Christ would come back again. But that year was 1948, so then when should Christ come again? 1948!!!
He did! He really did! I actually saw it all in the Bible and it was so amazing! That’s why I had to post about that today. How could I not?
