No Comment Will All Israel Will Be Saved?
A major question in the minds of people today is whether all Israel will be saved? The name of Israel always suggests three things, community, confusion and conflict. By community, we mean who Israel is, biblically speaking. The attempt to answer that question creates confusion and often results in conflict.
Who is responsible for this confusion and conflict? Primarily, those who use the extend the future of Israel, i.e., all Israel will be saved beyond the historical context and setting of the Bible. We will briefly illustrate what we mean in the following words.

Today we continue with the third of our segment of "John Hagee - 10 Roadsigns to the End of the Terminal Generation?"

Many claim that a particular group will reign over the nations with Christ. At one point, the Anglo-Saxons of Britain believe they were the ten lost tribes of Israel. They reasoned that the 10 tribes of Israel versus the tribes of Judah and Benjamin will reign with Christ in the millennium. Our question is, "Who reigns over the nations in the millennium?"
