What we have been eyewitnesses of in the last 70-80 years? There was a post/discussion in the local newspaper about what had been the most important events in recent years. One of the participants in the debate believed that the fall of the Berlin Wall was the most important and significant event. For my part, I consider the most important and significant event after World War II to be the Restoration of the State of Israel in May 1948
In my Bible studies the other day I came across the text of the apostle Peter which says: “For there were not cleverly thought-out thoughts or adventures we followed as we announced the power and return of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses to His greatness. For he received the glory of God the Father when a voice came to him from the very highest glory: ‘This is my Son, the beloved, whom I delight in’. And we heard the voices of heaven as we were with Jesus on the holy mountain.” (The Bible: 2 Peter 1, 16-18) Matthew’s account says this: Jesus had brought with him Peter, John, and Jacob and they were eyewitnesses and heard God confirm that Jesus is God, Son and man, (Matt. 17, 1-3, 5). I draw a comparison between the restoration of the state of Israel with what Peter, John, and Jacob were witnesses of. By the Restoration of Israel as a state, God showed us His greatness once again. Against all odds and human sense, but according to Bible prophecy, we are eyewitnesses to God’s greatness in the present. I thank God that I was born in a time where we can read about what the Bible prophesies about the Jews and Israel and at the same time be eyewitnesses that the prophecies come true on the road. On this page i will to best of my intention:
This web page will take up issues related to the bible and the prophecies given to God’s chosen prophets during thousands of years both before Jesus was born and after his death and resurrection from the death on the third day.
The bible has the narrative or roadmap to how God created all men and all that exists, God chose the Jews to be His own special people and by the Jews show all nations His greatness and bring forth God’s only begotten son Jesus Christ, as savior for all mankind. Much of the tales in the bible are brought forth and written by eyewitnesses over the millenniums.
