The Bible Proves That The ISRAEL Land Promise Has Already Been FULFILLED! | SOUL REFUGE



How could modern day Christians have been so blind as to be deceived into allocating the spiritual promises of the Bible into flesh/carnal fulfillment? All the promises in the Bible are wrapped up in Jesus, not the Jews. There were certainly no Jews until the ten northern tribes seceded leaving the nation of Israel split in two circa 930 BC. It wasn't until then that the Southern kingdom was called Judah. It wasn't until the Southern kingdom's Babylonian captivity that the term Jew was first used after 605 BC.

Adam wasn't a Jew, Noah wasn't a Jew, Abraham wasn't a Jew, Jacob wasn't a Jew, Judah wasn't a Jew, Moses wasn't a Jew, Joshua wasn't a Jew! This is part of the great deception that has almost brought down Western civilization.

That deception is so great that some evangelical Christian preachers are preaching that Jews do not have to accept Jesus to be saved. John Hagee is one, he also has calls for a preemptive nuclear strike against Iran! A Christian leader, a preacher of the Gospel is preaching that America should preemptively nuke the Iranians!

The Bible plainly teaches the fact that followers of God's Son Jesus are the 'chosen' of God, not a race of people! Abraham's 'seed' are the 'chosen'. Jesus Christ is that seed and his followers are 'in Christ'!


The Bible Proves That The ISRAEL Land Promise Has Already Been FULFILLED!


There are many today who believe that the land promise given in the Old Testament (Covenant) concerning the land of Israel is yet to be fulfilled. But, the truth of the matter is that this promise has already been fulfilled according to the book of Joshua.
And the LORD GAVE UNTO ISRAEL ALL THE LAND which HE SWARE  to GIVE UNTO THEIR FATHERS; and THEY POSSESSED IT AND DWELT THEREIN. And the LORD gave them rest round about, according to ALL that HE SWARE unto their fathers: and there stood not a man of all their enemies before them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand. There FAILED NOT ought of ANY good thing which the LORD HAD SPOKEN unto the house of ISRAEL; ALL CAME TO PASS . (Joshua 21:43-45)
The scriptures show us very clearly that nothing failed that the Lord had spoken, and that included the promise of the land. How much of the Lord’s PROMISE came to pass? Do the scriptures tell us that only some of it came to pass, or do they say that ALL of it came to pass? The scriptures tell us that ALL, which the LORD had spoken, came to pass. The question is whether you will BELIEVE the scriptures, or the modern day FALSE teachers who twist the scriptures. That is certainly YOUR own choice.
“And the LORD GAVE unto ISRAEL ALL THE LAND which HE SWARE to GIVE unto THEIR FATHERS; and THEY POSSESSED IT and DWELT therein”
Do the scriptures tell us that the LORD gave unto ISRAEL, only some of the LAND, or ALL of the LAND? The scriptures tell us that the LORD gave them ALL the LAND! Do you believe the scriptures or the modern day FALSE teachers who twist the scriptures, to fit their own FALSE theology? 
When people speak about an everlasting covenant regarding the land, they must not forget that the EVERLASTING aspect needs to be interpreted in light of the New Testament. Jesus Christ was the promised seed (descendant) who was spoken of in the verse below, and anything EVERLASTING must be linked with faith in him.
For ALL THE LAND which thou seest, to thee WILL I GIVE IT, and to thy seed for ever. And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. (Genesis 13:15-16)
It all comes back to those who have an enduring faith in Jesus the Christ (Messiah), the one who came down from above to redeem the soul of man.
BY FAITH Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. BY FAITH he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. Through FAITH also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. Therefore SPRANG there even OF ONE, and him as good as dead, so many AS THE STARS of the sky in multitude, and AS THE SAND which is by the sea shore innumerable. These all DIED IN FAITH, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were STRANGERS and PILGRIMS on the EARTH. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a better country, that is, an HEAVENLY: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their GOD: for he hath PREPARED for them a city. (Hebrews 11:8-16)
There are many Bible teachers today who ignore the basic truth that Jesus Christ is the one whom God speaks through.
God, who at sundry times and in divers (various) manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us BY HIS SON, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (Hebrews 1:1-2)
Do you see that? God spoke to us in the “past” through the prophets but now he speaks to us through the Son. The key to this whole matter regarding the land is this. The believers in the Old Testament (Covenant) were not looking for a permanent land here on earth. They were looking for a heavenly city which is above. Jesus declared that his kingdom was not of this world (John 18:36) and that would also include the physical land over in the Middle East, including modern day Israel. The New Testament fulfillment regarding the promise to Abraham and his seed now includes the whole world.
For the promise, that he should be the heir of THE WORLD, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect: (Romans 4:13-14)
This Gospel of Jesus Christ is a spiritual gospel, and we receive it by faith. A genuine conversion results in a spiritual birth in the heart of the believer. The physical location of that person does not matter one little bit. Jesus pointed that truth out to “the woman at the well” when he told her that God must be worshiped in spirit and in truth! (John 4:19-24) Abraham was told that he would be a “father of many nations” (Genesis 17:4-5, Romans 4:17-18) and that truth is being fulfilled every time a person puts their faith in Jesus Christ!. All true believers are of the TRUE CIRCUMCISION  which takes place in THE HEART.  (Romans 2:28-29)
Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. Beware of  DOGS, beware of EVIL WORKERS, beware of the CONCISION. For WE are the CIRCUMCISION, which WORSHIP GOD in the SPIRIT, and rejoice in CHRIST JESUS, and have no confidence in the flesh. (Philippians 3:1-3)
Ever since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Gospel has been going forth, and it started at Jerusalem, and went outward to the ends of the earth. Do not be fooled by those who try to preach that there are two distinct peoples of God on Earth, namely the “Church” and “Israel” There has always been one people of God, and there will always be one people of God.
But ye are come unto mount Sion (Zion), and unto the city of the living God, the HEAVENLY JERUSALEM, and to an innumerable company of ANGELS, To the general assembly and CHURCH OF THE FIRSTBORN, which are WRITTEN IN HEAVEN, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, (Hebrews 12:22-23)
It does not matter what part of the world a person lives in when it comes to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. There is no need to rush people back into the physical land of Israel, for some special “outpouring” of God’s Spirit. God’s Spirit, (living waters) have been flowing for almost two thousand years already. Take the advice of the creator of all things and “Repent and believe the Gospel” (Mark 1:15), if you want to be a partaker of those living waters. If a person rejects the counsel of the crucified, and risen Jesus Christ then they are without hope, whether they be Jewish by nature, or non-Jewish by nature. Jesus did not mention a return to the land when he rose from the dead. He told his followers to preach repentance and forgiveness of sins in his name, beginning at Jerusalem. The Gospel began there and it went forth outward, and has been preached in almost every part of the world. People desperately need the Gospel in the modern day State of Israel as much as  they do in modern day America. People desperately need the Gospel in Russia as much as they do in England, and every other place on planet Earth! A person who has not been “born again” of the Spirit is simply dead in their sins and still outside the Kingdom of God.
That which is born of the FLESH is FLESH; and that which is born of the SPIRIT is SPIRIT. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye MUST be BORN AGAIN. (John 3:6-7)
