������������������� Those who have deeply studied the Bible know that the
living descendants of God's People ISRAEL are today those nations
which are commonly known as the "Anglo‑Saxon" group, including
the British, the Germans, the Scandinavians, the Dutch, and their
descendants in the United States and the various colonies of these
nations. Knowing this fact enables us to explain and understand
their history as the fulfillment of Bible prophecies concerning
ISRAEL: and it also enables us to foretell their future by applying
those few Bible prophecies concerning ISRAEL which have not yet
been fulfilled.
�
������������������� Every event in our history for 3,000 years has
demonstrated its faithful adherence to God's prophesied plan: each
event for its own purpose‑‑which also required each event to come
at its appointed time. If we lose sight of PURPOSE, we fail to
understand why the event happened WHEN it did; if we lose sight
of TIME, we misunderstand the PURPOSE.
�
������������������� When the people of ISRAEL entered the Promised Land
of Palestine, they were 12 Tribes organized into one nation just like
this United States of 50 States. Even from early times, however,
there were internal jealousies which foretold the coming division
into two nations: David was king over Judah for several years
before he became king over all ISRAEL. On the death of King
Solomon, in 975 B.C., the nation was broken in two‑‑the ten
northern Tribes becoming a separate
kingdom with their capital city at Samaria, and keeping the name
Israel; while the two southern Tribes of Judah and Benjamin kept
the old capital city of Jerusalem, and took the name JUDAH for their
kingdom. The great turning points of our history are no mere
accidents; and God said of this division, "This thing is of Me" (1
Kings 12: 24).
�
� ������������������ ISRAEL left Egypt and entered Palestine as ONE nation:
yet God's purpose in the later division was already predestined.
Psalm 114: 1‑2 says: "When Israel went out
of Egypt, the House of Jacob from a people of strange language,
JUDAH was His SANCTUARY, and ISRAEL His DOMINION"‑TWO
PURPOSES to be served, each by a
separate nation.
�
������������������� Through Jesus Christ, God reached down toward man,
to bring man salvation, redemption, a good life under God's own
rule; to complete this contact and receive these gifts, man reached
up toward God, through God's Chosen People, ISRAEL. But what is
too often lost sight of is the fact that God's purpose toward man
involves
more than just the religious phase, necessary though that is. FOR
WHAT PURPOSE are we saved? It is to live in THE KINGDOM OF
GOD, that same Kingdom of God which Jesus Christ preached
throughout His entire career. The end of God's purpose is social,
economic, governmental, to which the other is but the means.
Hence we must recognize both the religious and the governmental
purposes.
�
������������������� Jesus Christ came the first time as our High Priest, to
offer on our behalf the
sacrifice of His own blood for our sins; He will come again as King
of kings and Lord of lords, to rule a world‑wide empire from the
throne of His own Kingdom. A priest functions only at the altar; a
king only at the throne. Hence, there must be provided for Him the
altar of sacrifice at His first coming, and the throne at His second
coming. Note how God fulfilled this: Psalm 114 tells us that JUDAH
was His SANCTUARY, and ISRAEL His DOMINION, and that this was
predestined from the time they left Egypt 5 centuries before the
nation was divided, and 15 centuries before the crucifixion.
�
������������������ � After the division into the two nations in 975 B.C., the
10‑tribed northern kingdom of Israel had no need to remain longer
in Palestine, for its destiny was to furnish the DOMINION, the
Kingdom of God, to be ruled by Jesus Christ when He shall come
the second time. The tiny land of Palestine can never furnish this: it
would scarcely provide standing room for the multitudes which
ISRAEL would become, according to God's promises in the Bible,
and it lacked the enormous resources promised to
ISRAEL and which were needed to produce the mighty power of
the predestined Kingdom. Accordingly, they were removed from
their old, Palestinian land, by the����� Assyrian captivity a thing
which seemed harsh at the time, yet it was necessary for they
would not have left their old home voluntarily. After about 715 B.C.,
they were out of Palestine, embarked on the long migration which
would bring them, many centuries later, into their north and west
European homelands, and from there to spread into the United
States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. In these
new homes, they developed such advanced civilization, such
wealth and power as were never before known in all world
history‑‑and this, also in
fulfillment of God's prophecies for ISRAEL. While they remained
frankly, boldly
CHRISTIAN, these nations ruled half the world. It was only after we
allowed those who hate Jesus Christ to immigrate, to infiltrate our
institutions, to influence and corrupt our leaders, that we have been
put on the defensive and driven out of our colonial possessions.
We must remember that it is JESUS CHRIST'S DOMINION that we
hold: and we can keep it only as long as we hold it FOR HIM. In
these, the ISRAEL nations, we find the DOMINION, just as the 114th
Psalm prophesied; but they had no part in the First Coming of
Jesus Christ, as the SANCTUARY for the High Priest was not in
their destiny.
�
������������������� But what of the other, the southern, 2‑Tribed Kingdom
of Judah? Originally, the throne had been in Judah, but out of the
Tribe of Judah was taken David and his family to be the kings; and
the throne was forever given to the House of David. But the
DOMINION was not in the destiny of the Kingdom of Judah, so the
Davidic king line ceased in Judah at the time of the Babylonian
captivity; but it was transferred to Ireland, where the two king lines
of Pharez and Zarah were united; and from here can be traced the
British royal family today so the throne, the
DOMINION, has remained in ISRAEL.
�
������������������� However, the SANCTUARY, the Temple, remained in
the southern Kingdom of
Judah. True, it was infiltrated and corrupted with alien priests and
alien doctrines, after the return from Babylon: yet it was still His
Sanctuary, even though occupied by usurpers, just as the Kingdom
is still His, even though usurpers have wrongfully
occupied His land. Since only the SANCTUARY was to be there, we
find no majestic dominion in Judah. In its very origin, it was
reduced to only two out of the 12 Tribes. It shrank in importance,
becoming vassal alternately to Egypt and Babylonia;
after the Babylonian captivity, it was vassal to Persia, Syria, and
finally the least of the provinces of Rome. But here was the
SANCTUARY, and to it came Jesus Christ;� here He offered Himself
in sacrifice, and entered into the real Holy of Hollies with His own
blood as the offering for our sins. This completed the work of the
SANCTUARY, the separate destiny of JUDAH, and 40 years
thereafter JUDAH ceased to exist as a nation separate from
ISRAEL.
�
������������������� Jesus Christ preached only the Gospel of the Kingdom
of God, not the Gospel of Personal Salvation. The prophets before
Him had foretold His life, crucifixion,
resurrection, and the salvation of men and redemption of ISRAEL
which He accomplished thereby. Why repeat it? As Jesus said, "If
they will not hear Moses and
the prophets, neither will they believe though one rose from the
dead." Therefore, He did not preach the part of His mission which
was finished. Now it was time to preach the KINGDOM OF GOD, to
inspire His people ISRAEL to work out their destiny in preparing for
Him the Kingdom, the DOMINION, for His second coming.
�
������������������� When He came the first time, the priests ignored the
114th Psalm, and would not accept Him as Savior, as the Great High
Priest: they would accept Him only as King, or not at all. Today,
nearly all churches make a similar mistake. They ignore the 114th
Psalm; they refuse to see we are ISRAEL, and our destiny is to
furnish the DOMINION, not the SANCTUARY. They preach only a
Savior, not a King; they offer Him only the cross, not the crown. But
God's destiny is not to be frustrated: The Israel NATIONS have
created the DOMINION, whose work is still ahead. The history of
JUDAH leads to Christ's first coming; the history of ISRAEL leads to
His second coming. The THRONE is as literal as the CROSS: He
was given His SANCTUARY: Now we must give Him His DOMINION.
