Living in Times of Prophetic Fulfilment

It is a privilege to be living in times when the prophecies of the Bible is being fulfilled. There are very few such times. In the past we have the following times when prophecies of God in the Bible were fulfilled:
  1. The first exile of Israel, the Babylonian exile of 70 years (Isaiah 39:5-7, 2 Kings 25:1-21, 2 Chronicles 36:15-21, Jeremiah 52:4-28);
  2. The first restoration of Israel (Jeremiah 29:10, Ezra 1:1-4);
  3. The first coming of the Messiah (Micah 5:2, Daniel 9:25-26);
  4. The second exile of Israel, the world wide exile (Deuteronomy 28:64-68).
Today, we are witnessing the second restoration of Israel (Deuteronomy 30:1-10, Ezekiel 37:4-28), with Judah being restored first. Yet to come will be the restoration of the other tribes. Once the twelve tribes are restored, Israel will enter into the Great Tribulation and the Messiah will come again.
