Keeping in mind the doctrine of the divine council and the Devil's role as a major figure in Jehovah's opposition, I hold to a minority opinion on what will happen to the modern State of Israel. This is not a conviction in itself, but the net result of several convictions.
The Devil's use of the Jews is not tied to the fate of modern Israel. Zionism is not that important to the Jewish ethnic agenda. Rather, that little country is nothing more than a delusion. Its sole purpose is to provide a distraction, a major irritant in human international politics that consumes vast resources for no discernible purpose. At some point, the elohim council will simply throw it under the bus.
When that happens, humanity will have taken a very critical step toward the Final End Times. It will signal the rise of the Antichrist. I'll try to summarize.
We already have sufficient commentary on the Book of Revelation. Don't take it literally; it's meant to be read as symbolism. There is a substantial community of believers who reject what's called "Dispensationalism" and the popular teachings on eschatology, exemplified by the Left Behind series of novels. I stand with those who assert that the Bible teaches Christ is coming back only once, and that the Rapture will immediately turn into the Day of Judgment. The final tribulation of mankind on the earth will not be worse than what the early church experienced when Rome laid siege to Jerusalem. Jesus warned His immediate disciples that the siege would be the worst tribulation of all time, but it could well be that our final tribulation will be almost as bad.
No literal Seven Years, no literal Millennium, all of that stuff is nonsense.
The Antichrist is a spiritual influence, not a person. Rather, it will manifest as a group of people some else has called The Cult. This group will almost certainly choose a frontman as the focus of human attention, as part of the larger deception. The current membership of this cult includes the bulk of the neocons; however, they are not precisely the same thing. It helps if you understand the history of the neocons. Don't expect a clear-cut organizational chart here. The Bible describes all of this in terms of roles, not individual identities. Don't get lost thinking of names; contemplate the kind of people who would attack faith itself, not just some brand of Christian religion.
Review the biblical earmarks of the End Times. What the Bible indicates is something truly diabolical that will target genuine faith, not plastic Jesus religion. The opposition elohim agenda was never threatened by people pretending. The only problem they face is when humans are so utterly submissive to Jehovah that they live the Covenant and receive the miracles promised. The elohim know the difference; their agenda demands preventing real covenant miracles.
So, they will not mobilize the Antichrist against mainstream churches. They will likely use the mainstream church to come after Covenant people. It's almost guaranteed that the primary issue of conflict will be regarding the attitude about Jews. The Beast is going to use the Harlot Church, and the test of Harlot orthodoxy will be reverence for Jews as "still God's people".
Ironically, it is the teaching of Dispensationalism that will turn out to be a Mark of the Beast. You will see the elohim engaging human political herding to stage an attack on Israel, and then it will be destroyed, and once again, the Jews will be homeless. Dispensational Christians will be shocked, but the leadership will be quick to emphasize that this is another Holocaust, and we owe the Jews some moral debt that will end up making them our rulers. This is exactly what the neocons taught back when they got revved up. They rejected Zionism as a distraction, something that would weaken the Jewish claim of being poor, defenseless persecuted people.
This business of reverencing the Jews will be the final test of orthodoxy. It's already pretty important in almost every social and government institution in the West. In effect, the ADL is a manifestation of Antichrist. If you dare to speak the biblical truth of Christ and the Jewish rejection of Him as the Messiah, then you have sinned against Jews, who consider themselves our gods, so that the ADL insists it is the ultimate crime.
That funny word "Armageddon"? It's actually not a reference to the Valley of Meggido; the Hebrew words are not even close. The Hebrew term (har megiddon) means "the mountain of assembly". In the Old Testament, where was that mountain of assembly? Jerusalem, Mount Zion. But then, it's not a literal term, but a symbol for where God sits on the throne of His Kingdom. It refers to the hearts of His Covenant people, His true temple.
And the vast army of humanity gathered against this "mount of assembly" will be led by Jews. Certainly not every Jewish person, but the Antichristian leadership of the Jews, the Cult, the people who serve the Devil as the enemies of genuine covenant faith in Jesus Christ.
Please notice that the role of the non-Christian masses is undetermined. It's not the world that is attacking faith in Christ, but the elohim opposition. They don't actually need the whole world mobilized against faith to get what they want. As long as the mass of humanity is distracted by various types of oppression and abuse, they are less likely to even think about the Covenant. The opposition members of God's council are the ones threatened by the Covenant.
This is not a human agenda, so humans are not the source of trouble here. Even the most ardent servants of the false gods have no clue what's really going on. The question of attacking covenant faith requires only a minority who care about it in the first place, and that will be religious folks. The globalist/neocon agenda might be a handy weapon for the elohim, but the humans need not even be aware of how they are being used. Do not link the human globalist agenda with direct persecution of faith until it's clear that matters to the globalists. So far, it doesn't.
In other words, the Apocalypse everyone fears will come at the same time as persecution of faith, but the two would be technically different events, in that the humans executing one will not be directly involved in the other.
This is what I see based on the current context. If the context changes, I'd probably have to make some adjustments. This is not prophecy and certainly not orthodoxy for any purpose whatsoever. It's just my crackpot notions about where things are headed.
