THE BIBLE takes us from the very Beginning …

“In the beginning
God created the heavens and the Earth.”
(Genesis 1:1)

To the very End …

“Now I saw a new heaven and a new Earth,
for the first heaven and the first earth
had passed away.”
(Revelation 21:1)

And it then provides the details of everything that will happen in-between!!!

These prophetic “details” can be roughly separated into three major times and divisions:

1. Prophecies of A NATION Which Would Rise
2. Prophecies of A PERSON Who Would Rise
3. Prophecies of A GENERATION Which Would Rise

THE NATION

The Bible describes in great detail how God formed a nation from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob which would be separate from all other nations on Earth.

God named this nation, “Israel.”

All the prophets warn the destiny of the World will be inseparable from this nation, Israel.

The Bible says God would one day re-gather the children of Israel back into their land from among many nations around the world. The Bible says they would be re-gathered in unbelief. God warns He is not re-gathering the children of Israel into their Land because they deserve it, but because His Name and His Word are at stake (see Ezekiel 36:17-23), and because He loves them. They are His chosen people.

The Bible warns sometime after Israel would be re-gathered as a nation that Gaza would be forsaken, Russia-Iran-Turkey and allies would attack and invade Israel, a Peace Treaty will be enforced upon Israel by a very popular and powerful leader (the Antichrist), and then ALL nations of the World will come against Jerusalem (the Battle of Armageddon).

THE PERSON

In the Old Testament (Tanakh), God warned Israel (and Mankind) that a prophetic and specific “Man” would one day appear on Earth. Many prophecies in the Bible were given to prepare both Israel and the World for a mysterious One called “Messiah” (Christ in English) who was to one day appear on Earth.

Through His prophets, God told us this man would not be just any ordinary man, but He would be God Himself manifested in the form of Man to fulfill a specific (and world-changing) purpose and destiny.

God gave over 200 specific prophecies describing this Man whom He would indwell, including such details as: He would be a descendant of King David from the tribe of Judah, He would be born of a virgin in Bethlehem, He would be betrayed by a friend for 30 pieces of silver, He would ride into Jerusalem on a donkey being hailed as King, the nation Israel would reject Him, He would be beaten and His back would be brutally whipped and scourged, He would be executed through Crucifixion, He would suffer and die, and He would then be raised from the dead within 3 days, and finally, He would ascend and “return to My place” (in Heaven) until the appointed time of His return.

Never in the history of Mankind has so much prophetic detail and description ever been given concerning a single person. God purposely did this in order to prepare the world in such a way that when the Christ (Messiah) did arrive, there could be no question it was Him, and no other person on Earth could ever fulfill all the specific prophecies and claim His Title. (See the “Prophecies of Jesus Christ” on our Prophecies & Studies page.)

THE GENERATION

The Bible warns a single generation would rise to see the fulfillment of many extraordinary prophecies, beginning with Israel being gathered back into her Land as a nation with Jerusalem as her capital once again … and ending with the Rapture, Antichrist, the Apocalypse, Armageddon, and Messiah’s Return.

God has spent a lot of time and effort describing and warning of this generation which would one day rise to see the terrible realities and consequences of ignoring, rejecting, and scoffing at God’s Word and His many warnings in prophecy.

We are told these prophecies are His way of preparing Mankind for the grave danger which now lies ahead, while also lovingly offering a way for all who will repent, trust, and take His Word seriously “to ESCAPE all these things which will come to pass.”

Much detailed information is given in the Bible concerning the character, morals, and attitudes of this prophetic generation, AND, the many world-changing events which they will one day witness as the Generation of Armageddon leads the world down into the dark terrors of the coming Apocalypse.
