The Nation of Israel

The Bible's prophecies authenticate it as having Divine origin. Study them with an open mind and you will be convinced of that fact. If it is God-breathed, then its promise of immortality for those who repent and trust in the Savior, is true. Ignore it, and you will suffer the loss of Heaven and rather receive the just endurance of Hell.

The nation of Israel is a sign to any skeptic, if he (or she) will listen.

Many times, God warned Israel that He would scatter them throughout the nations. That happened in 70 AD and they were without a homeland for approximately 2,000 years (see Hosea 3:4-5). God said "I will bring you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries where you are scattered, with a mighty hand, with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out." (Ezekiel 20:34).

Israel was declared a nation by the United Nations on May 14, 1948. A nation was born in a day (see also Isaiah 43:5-6,21, Ezekiel 36:11; 24).
