Introduction	16	(7)
The Beginning of the End	23	(15)
Not until I was challenged to take another look at the Scriptures-the prophets, the apostles and Jesus Himself-did I become aware that God still has a plan for His covenant people and that their return to their ancestral home signals the beginning of the end.
The ``Greater Riches'' World Revival	38	(11)
The unparalleled growth of the Church in our day, heralding the greatest awakening in world history, is connected to the rebirth of Israel.

Israel and the Jewish people have made a profound impact-both secular and spiritual-on the nations and have kept alive faith in the one true God.
The Targeted Annihilation	63	(12)

The Early Jewish ``Church''	75	(11)
Although salvation was accomplished through the completed work of the Messiah alone, the all-Jewish Early Church continued to observe Sabbath and celebrate the feasts as a proclamation of the Messiah who had fulfilled them.
The ``Gentilizing'' of the Church	86	(11)
When the Romans destroyed the Temple and the city of Jerusalem, the Church assumed that God was finished with Israel and soon demanded that Jewish believers forsake their own heritage.
Division-The DNA of the Gentile Church	97	(9)
The rejection of Jewish ``parentage'' in the Lord is the first major division in the Body of the Lord-a mutation that has entered the body, which will not be made whole until this wound is healed.
Return to the Land	106	(14)
Both the incidents leading to the rebirth of the nation of Israel and the circumstances surrounding that epic event defy explnation except in terms of the miraculous intervention of the Almighty.

According to the prophets, Israel's return to the Land signifies the time of her spiritual awakening as evidenced by the astounding growth of the messianic community of believers.

The words of Paul, the Jewish apostle to the Gentiles, take on fresh meaning as we consider the coming together of Jew and Gentile in our day.
A Time to Pray	161	(6)
The prophetic fulfillment we are now seeing is a call to the Church to participate with God in its completion and to hasten the Second Coming of Messiah to Earth.
The Final Exodus	167	(8)
Just as in the exodus from Egypt and the ``second exodus'' of Israel from the nations, so the final exodus of the entire Body of Messiah-the exodus to meet our King-will not be without its preceding plagues and persecution.
