of biblical prophecy.
Theologians known as “dispensational premillennialists” believe a “rapture” that will remove the church from the world is coming, followed by a seven-year Great Tribulation. At the rapture, in their opinion, the nation of Israel will become the primary focus of God’s plan on earth once again. They believe that the Jews will come to Christ through the seven-year Great Tribulation, fulfilling God’s covenant with Abraham.
In this view, Israel is still the “chosen” people, though they will not return to this status in the world until after the rapture of the church. In the meantime, the creation of the State of Israel in 1948 fulfills prophecy and enables God to keep his biblical promises to the nation of Israel.
