to My holy mountain, Jerusalem,’ says the Lord” (Isaiah 66:8, 20). Then they shall bring all your brethren from all the nations as a grain offering to the Lord, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules and on camels. “Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Can a land be born in one day? Can a nation be brought forth all at once? As soon as Zion travailed, she also brought forth her sons. Here are those prophecies, respectively: “Thus says the Lord God, ‘Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel’” (Ezekiel 37:21, 22). That incredible day fulfilled prophecies in both Ezekiel and Isaiah. We are, and have been, in a prophetic tsunami since the day Israel became a nation on May 14, 1948. “The Law” Jesus spoke about is what we call The Old Testament, otherwise known as the Hebrew Bible the ancient books. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished” (Matthew 5:17, 18, NASB). “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. Jesus is now presiding over what he embodies. Christ is waking up his Bride and reminding us that he fulfilled what was written in the OT. “The Prophetic” as it’s referred to, is a groundswell of awakened Christians cutting huge swaths of enlightened highway through miles of blighted, religious forests these days. If the OT is not relevant, we are driving an evangelical bus around in circles without a compass. Relevant? The OT is full of clues to our current situations on the earth because it is full of prophecy about them. As a result, the average church member has little knowledge of the prophetic benchmarks we’ve surpassed within the last 70 years - and certainly not the prophetic movement sweeping across the world right now. Does the Old Testament remain relevant to 21st-century Christianity and society overall?Ī: Unfortunately, there has been a slow drain of education toward the importance of personal, biblical literacy within the church, especially regarding the Old Testament (OT).
