Armageddon

THE DESPISED SERVANT (Isa 53:1-3) 1. Future Israel Confesses Her Unbelief V1 2. Future Israel Confesses the Resons for her Unbelief V2-3

This sermon concludes a study of the book of Daniel by examining the transition from historical prophecy to the eschatological 'time of the end.' It identifies the figure of the Antichrist as a future manifestation of the abomination of desolation, contrasting his limited, God-permitted reign with the ultimate sovereignty of God over history. The exposition highlights the Great Tribulation as a period of intense distress for Israel, during which the archangel Michael protects the remnant and God purifies His people through judgment. The message emphasizes that while the world descends into moral darkness, believers are called to shine as lights and lead others to righteousness. Finally, the sermon encourages the church to remain faithful in their daily service, trusting in the promise of eternal rest and the certainty of God's redemptive plan.

This sermon explores Zechariah 12 as a cohesive narrative that moves from creation to physical and spiritual redemption. It identifies the chapter's central events as the Battle of Armageddon, where God sovereignly defeats the nations gathered against Jerusalem, fulfilling the curse of Deuteronomy 28 upon the enemies. The message emphasizes that this physical victory serves as the catalyst for Israel's spiritual awakening, leading to the pouring out of the Spirit and the national repentance described in verse 10. By connecting the opening reference to creation with the closing promise of salvation, the teaching asserts that God's plan for Israel was established before time began, ensuring that His covenant people will ultimately recognize and mourn for the Messiah they pierced.

ALL ISRAEL WILL BE SAVED Romans 11:25-26 25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob (KJV): Their Salvation Will Come After The Great Tribulation ALL NATIONS WILL COME AGAINST JERUSALEM Zechariah 12:1-8 actually describes a battle that is the fifth of eight stages that comprise the Campaign of Armageddon. This takes place in the future and begins with the sixth bowl judgment during the middle of The Great Tribulation (Revelation 16:12-16).
