THE FIG TREE IS ALIVE AGAIN I believe the fig tree generation theory is biblical, that Jesus has to come back before this generation that saw Israel become a nation again is gone. Some say the fig tree in Matthew 24 is only about the fig leaves, and that the passage doesn't really say anything about the fig tree itself. But I agree that the generation that sees those leaves will be the generation that sees the coming of the Lord. The question is: where do those leaves come from? You don't have fig leaves without the fig tree that produces them. What does that fig tree represent? Earlier in the running context, the Lord cursed the fig tree. I believe that was a picture of Israel being cursed. The fig tree dying and being dead and gone was a picture of Israel's rejection, which we saw formalized and finalized in A.D. 70. The human efforts to bring Israel back at the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt failed because God had already set Israel aside. But fast-forward into the future, and we have a miracle that only God could engineer: Israel is back as a nation. The cursed and dead fig tree is now alive again. And this cursed and dead fig tree is going to bear leaves in the last days. Those leaves are the prophecies in the Olivet Discourse. So you don't see the leaves of the Olivet Discourse that occur during the tribulation time unless you first see the fig tree come back to life.

Farm Boys and Fisherman God has always used the simple things of this world to accomplish His purposes. He called farm boys and fishermen. He called tax collectors and ordinary men. He used men who were not impressive by the world's standards to carry His truth to the world. Why? Because the power isn't in human wisdom. Jesus said: “Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.” Matthew 11:25 There is nothing wrong with scholarship, learning Greek and Hebrew or studying theology. But scholarship must never become vain intellectualism. When our theology, philosophy, and presuppositions become so complicated that we can no longer simply believe the plain statements of Scripture, we've traded biblical faith for human wisdom. We don't need a theology that tells us what Scripture really means after we've already read what it says. We need biblical theology. Theology that comes from the Bible rather than being imposed upon it. The greatest scholars in the world can know Greek and Hebrew forwards and backwards, but if their scholarship causes them to reject the plain meaning of God's Word, their scholarship has become a liability rather than an asset. God said what He meant and He meant what He said. We need more childlike faith in the plain statements of Scripture, not more pride in human systems.

KEPT FROM THE HOUR - NOT THROUGH IT What exactly did Jesus promise the church in Revelation 3:10? “I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.” The key is the Greek construction τηρέω ἐκ (tēreō ek)-“keep from.” Some argue that this means Christ will preserve His church through the Tribulation. But that interpretation fails to deal with what Jesus actually said He would keep His people from: the hour itself. Consider John 17:15: “I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.” The same τηρέω ἐκ construction appears there. Jesus wasn't praying for His disciples to be removed from the world. He was asking the Father to keep them from the evil one while they remained in the world. But Revelation 3:10 is different in its object and context. Jesus promises to keep His church from “the hour of temptation”, an hour that will come upon the whole world to test those who dwell upon the earth. The promise isn't simply, “I will protect you while you're in the hour.” It is: “I will keep you from the hour.” And notice that Revelation doesn't merely say the church will be kept from the judgments of that hour. Christ says He will keep her from the hour itself. That is why the distinction between being kept from something and being kept through something matters so much. The Church has never been promised immunity from every trial in this present world. But Christ gave a very specific promise concerning a very specific future hour, and that hour is coming upon the entire inhabited world. Christ's promise is not preservation through the hour. It is deliverance from the hour. That is the significance of Revelation 3:10, and why it points to the pre-Tribulation Rapture.
