In Matthew 24:32 Jesus said "when the fig tree and all the trees, shoot forth, you know summer is near." I believe Israel is that "fig tree." It shot forth(became a nation)in our own generation! The nation of Israel IS Yehweh's time clock! Watch & pray for Israel! Watch what the nations do and what how the leaders treat Israel. Watch how they turn against her... and then know Yeshua is soon to appear! He will bring in our "summer time!"
In John 6:48-51 it reads in The Passion , "I AM the true Bread of Life. Your ancestors ate manna in the desert and died. But standing here before you is the true Bread that comes out of heaven, and when you eat this Bread you will never die. I alone am this living Bread that has come to you from heaven. Eat this Bread and you will live forever. The living Bread I give is my body, which I will offer as a sacrifice so that all may live." There is a difference between eternal life and living forever. The only reason I would die is if there is a record of sin in my DNA. I do not need to die, none of us do. But we need to undergo transformation by applying the body and blood of Jesus. The body and blood of Jesus carry the record of the DNA of God. We can age and die, or we can take the body and blood of Jesus within ourselves, and live forever!. Jesus says in John 6:58, "I am not like the bread your ancestors ate and later died. I am the living Bread that comes from heaven.
You know, I have always wondered about this. I have always kind of viewed the establishment of the nation of Israel as the planting of the fig tree. In turn, I have viewed the shooting forth of the branches and leaves as the expansion of its borders. I know that is probably not a popular point of view, and I've never heard anyone explain it that way before, so when I saw this post, I thought I take the time to get your opinion. Thanks.
