Israel In Prophecy And The Four Blood Moons

By Elaine Guthrie


When one thinks of Israel, Jewish people often come to mind. Now, these people are returning to the homeland, many surprised at the willingness to do so. Others see this transition from the outer edges of Egypt and other areas of the Holy land as God bringing home those whom believed he had forsaken in earlier times as part of Israel in prophecy.

It is often asked why Israel is always front and center in world news. With the current issues of the day, it is clear to see why Egypt, Israel, and Libya are in the news. Though, for most the reasons for discussing Israel are political and religious, not just political.

While the current news in the region is quite tragic in relation to Coptic Christians and others, the Jewish people have seen a rebirth though not through the eyes of terrorists. Yet, through the eyes of Israel as having been reborn a new Nation in 1948. The holy war over Palestinian statehood, regardless of which side one might be on will also most likely continue until the end of time, thus not allowing Israel solo rule over the people.

Other Israeli prophecies are tied to the Moon. First, April 15, 2014 being a total lunar eclipse with three additional eclipses to follow. These eclipses combined are known as a Tetrad, with the second having taken place on October 8, 2014, the third on April 4, 2015 and the last to take place on September 28, 2015. One of only eight tetrads to occur in the 21st century.

Most scientists and scholars denounce the red of the moon as only being related to light scattering throughout the atmospheric regions of earth. As prophets recognize the solar eclipse as being part of the process, it is believed that the last solar eclipse in March of 2015 is the beginning of the end, and, that we have actually been in the seven years of tribulation since 2008.

There have always been zealots planning and professing the coming of Christ, the coming of the end or simply, the end of times in relation to the Mayan Calendar in 2012, another prophecy left unfulfilled like many others associated with Nostradamus. Some say the delays are due to human activity and intervention or simply a bad timeline while others just see the prophecies as false.

The book, "Four Blood Moons, " spent several months on the best seller list. After which, it gained great attention by the New Yorker and other publications. Several writers have written articles discussing the science behind these sequential eclipses though none have bought into the prospect as being part of Gods plan to bring an end to the world.

Prophecy is supernatural as is the belief in anything unseen, as such it is not real until it happens. While some prophecies have come to pass, most can be attributed to coincidence. And, the fact that the Mayans predicted the end of the world in 2012 and the world is still here speaks volumes to those which have not come to pass.
