Israel today could easily make the connection. There are in fact Jews alive today who have had their heads and hearts turned by a reading of Isaiah 53. But Messiah is alluded to early on. The first reference to Messiah comes in the third chapter of the very first book of the Hebrew Bible! Messianic roots go back to the writings of Moses. (see Genesis 3:15)

• The Greek word ‘ekklesia’ in the original New Covenant text (translated as ‘church’) refers to the global community of Bible believers—that is, real true believers regardless of affiliation or where located around the world.

• Before an event called the Rapture maybe a third or more of the Jews will accept the Messiah’s identity and build upon Messianic faith—after the Rapture one third of all Jews will gain faith in Messiah, be the Remnant referred to in Scriptures, and live to the end of the tribulation. The Remnant of Israel—Jewish prayers—bring Messiah to earth (this is indicated in Scripture, the associated Hebrew is: "Baruch HaBa BaShem Adonai …”). The role of Israel in current events is required for scriptural information to make functional sense—nothing replaces this role or Israel itself.
• After Yom Teruah comes a period of terrible days that are a parallel to the coming tribulation and Yom Kippur is the absolute day of judgment that is noted repeatedly in the Bible
- Yom Kippur Identifies Messiah
• What Scripture says about the future hinges on Israel.
• What Israel does hinges on a Jewish awareness of the Tanach (Hebrew Scripture text) and the identity of the Jewish Messiah.
• Current events concerning Israel are in line with what Scripture states regarding future (prophesy-based) events.
• Gentiles and Jewish persons who give NO attention to the Bible will remain clueless as to how Science, Change, and Scripture all relate to the window's timeline extending forward (to an anticipated biblical event horizon).
• Jews and Gentiles who look to Scripture: identify with Messiah, are part of the scriptural Olive Tree, and form the 'ekklesia,' body of believers, who are the ultimate focus of Scripture. The biblical storyline is focused on this key group. Being in that group requires a choice made by a conscious living human being—it's scriptural, with no exceptions.
• An overview of the Scriptures revealing the historical persons and in relation to time and from the beginning to end of the Scriptures:

- The Gospel (presented in the Convergence Area)
Messiah saves those who make a Step Up To Life for the next era on Earth, where life is eternal, the Earth is renewed, and success is in recognition of the greatest promise of all time.
Detailed Study of Future End Times Chronology
For persons who have never had an easy to read account of what Daniel and John wrote about the End Times chronology of events, the following two titles are well worth the purchase and study (click on book cover image):
For persons who have read the Scriptures but would like a deeper study of the writings of: Daniel, the Bible's integration of information regarding the End Times, and book of Revelation, the following is an important source:
NOTE: Study of these sources in advance of the Rapture adds an added awareness of considerable importance. If you do not know what the Rapture is ... best to study this in advance! Study of the chronology that follows the rapture is of extreme importance for persons who will enter the time of Tribulation.
