The Lesson of the Fig Tree

“From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near. So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.”

According to gotquestions.org:

“Fig trees were common in Israel, and it could be that there was a fig tree nearby as Jesus used this illustration of the signs of the end times. The appearance of leaves on the fig tree heralded the onset of summer; similarly, the appearance of all the things Jesus had just described would herald the second coming and the end of the age.

Note the wording of the fig tree prophecy: Jesus says that, when people see all the signs, then the end is near. What are all the signs? Here’s what Jesus had mentioned up to that point:..” (“What Is the Fig Tree Prophecy?”)

If you go to this link, you will see a list of the signs Jesus Himself spoke of:

We are just beginning to see some of these signs take place globally, and not just in isolated areas. If you look at what is happening in Israel coupled with everything else, you can decipher through all of the garbage and deception out there, and see what is really happening based upon the Truth: the Word of God. (Note: not all of these signs mentioned are before the Tribulation.)

Eventually the Battle of Gog and Magog (Ezekiel 38-39) will be fulfilled. My interpretation is that Daniel 9:27 will be fulfilled to bring a false sense of peace to the Middle East in which Arab nations will have the opportunity to attack Israel when it has its guard down, which will be during the Tribulation, but this may be wrong.

Everything revolves around the Land of Israel. I believe God is sending the world a message, especially for those who want to listen. For those who don’t want to listen, they will likely be increasingly deceived and many will worship the Antichrist who is going to temporarily stop all of the madness going on globally. If you care about where you are headed for eternity and want to better understand why everything is deteriorating, there is plenty of content out there including the best book ever written: the Bible.

And though I don’t like to make promises, two promises that I will make are that nobody is going to destroy Israel and God’s Chosen People are the Jews.
