We are living in exciting times when we can witness Bible prophecy being fulfilled before our very eyes. Many of these prophecies relate to the Jewish people and their nation. Below is a summary of prophecies concerning the Jews that are currently being fulfilled and those that are yet to be fulfilled.
Prophecies Currently Being Fulfilled The Jewish people will be regathered in unbelief from the four corners of the earth (Isaiah 11:11-12). Fulfillment: 20th Century and continuing.
The state of Israel will be re-established (Isaiah 66:7-8 & Ezekiel 37:21-22). Fulfillment: May 14, 1948.
The Jews will once again re-occupy the city of Jerusalem (Zechariah 8:4-8), Fulfillment: June 7, 1967.
The land of Israel will be reclaimed from its desolation, becoming once again a land of agricultural abundance (Ezekiel 36:34-35). Fulfillment: 20th Century and continuing.
The Hebrew language will be revived from the dead (Zephaniah 3:9). Fulfillment: 19th & 20th Centuries.
All the nations of the world will come together against Israel over the issue of the control of Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:1-3). Fulfillment: Currently occurring.
Prophecies Yet To Be Fulfilled The Arab nations of the world will attack Israel in a coordinated effort to annihilate the state (Psalm 83).
Israel will soundly defeat the Arab alliance (Zechariah 12:6).
Israel will dwell in security and prosperity (Ezekiel 38:11).
A Russian coalition consisting mainly of Muslim nations will invade Israel (Ezekiel 38:1-17).
The Russian coalition will be destroyed supernaturally by God (Ezekiel 38:18-23 & 39:1-8).
The Antichrist will intervene and guarantee the security of Israel, enabling the Jews to rebuild their Temple (Daniel 9:27).
At the end of three and a half years, the Antichrist will enter the rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem and declare himself to be God (Daniel 9:27, Matthew 24:15-18, & 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4).
The Jews will reject the Antichrist, and he will respond with an attempt to annihilate them, killing two-thirds of them in the process (Revelation 12:13-17 & Zechariah 13:8-9).
At the end of the Tribulation, when the Jews have come to the end of themselves, they will turn to God and receive Yeshua as their Messiah (Zechariah 12:10, Romans 9:27-28, & Romans 11:25-27).
Jesus will return and regather all believing Jews to Israel (Deuteronomy 30:1-9).
Israel will be established as the prime nation in the world (Isaiah 2:1-4 & Micah 4:1–7).
The Lord will bless the Jewish remnant by fulfilling all the promises He has made to Israel (Isaiah 60:1-62:7).
The blessings of God will flow out to all the nations through the Jewish people during the Millennial rule of Jesus (Zechariah 8:22-23).
Prophecies Concerning the Church Christians should find the fulfillment of these prophecies very encouraging because God has also made a lot of promises through Bible prophecy to the Church. As we see the Lord fulfilling every promise He has made to the Jews, we can be assured that He will fulfill all the promises He has made to the Church through His Prophetic Word.

Thank you for the concise and uplifting summary of fulfilled prophecy, Dr. Reagan. Prophecy is a great source of peace and hope in my Christian walk as I wait with expectation for my Lord's imminent return.
You pointed out our "blessed hope," a hope believers in the Lord Jesus Christ alone possess, at the 2007 Understanding the Times Prophecy Conference in Minneapolis. What a joy to hear it presented so zealously when most of the pastors in my area will not teach eschatology. They contend that it is "divisive" and is not an "essential doctrine." I don't know what could be more essential than the teaching of the Second Coming that reveals the glory of Christ and His bringing all things together in heaven, and in earth, under His rule and authority! I am encouraged that Godly men, such as yourself, do not ignore prophecy and take the easy and apathetic way out.

No one can get a message out more clearly and with fewer words than Dr. David Reagan. You can be sure it will be based on Scripture. He's one of the best Bible teachers of the day and an authority on eschatology. His bio and background will tell you why! We never miss his TV program, "Christ In Prophecy." I appreciate how clearly his message is laid out, and it's simply because he takes God at His word, instead of cherry-picking parts and "spiritualizing" them to his liking. THANK YOU, Dr. Reagan, we appreciate you! Partners in Prophecy, CZ Click here to reply to this post
