TWO HOUSES OF ISRAEL

Every prophet in the Old Testament, with the exception of Jonah, described at least some part of the Millennium, and/or the period of time leading up to the millennium, this 7th Day Prophecy.

The Bible refers to Two Houses of Israel and the fact that during this future prophetic time, they will become one house. In these last days the two houses are the Jews and the Christians. The House of Judah refers to Jews, and The House of Israel refers to Christians. The title “Christians” includes anyone who has accepted and become joint-heirs with Jesus Christ. See Restoring the Two Houses of Israel by Eddie Chumney.

When will the Jews and the Christians will become one:
“In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance to your fathers.” Jeremiah 3:18

Where is the land that God gave as an inheritance to the fathers?
“And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward, for all the land which you see, to you will I give it, and to your seed forever.” Genesis 13:14-15.

Where is the land of the north Jeremiah refers to?
He stretched out the north over the empty place, and hung the earth upon nothing.” Job 26:7. This appears to be where God lives, as also revealed in 2 Corinthians 12:2: “I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows) – such as one caught up to the third heaven…he was caught up into paradise…”

How would the Jews and the Christians come to be in the land of the north, the third heaven, paradise, together? The Rapture!

    “Come my people, enter into your chambers, and shut your doors about you; hide yourself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation is past. For, behold, the Lord comes out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.” Isaiah 26:20-21

     “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, who shall be left….” Isaiah 11:11a. “Seek the Lord, all you meek of the earth, who have kept his ordinances; seek righteousness, seek meekness; it may be you shall be hidden in the day of the Lord’s anger.” Zephaniah 2:3    

     “The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melts in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.” Jeremiah 6:29

THE TWO HOUSES BECOME ONE

The word of the Lord came again to me, saying, Moreover, you son of man, take one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in your hand. And when the children of your people shall speak to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these? Say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand. And the sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before their eyes. And say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, wherever they have gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all. Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them; so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd; they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince forever.”

”Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. My tabernacle also shall be with them: yes, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And the heathen shall know that I the Lord do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.” Ezekiel 37:15-26

CONDENSED VERSION:

The Lord will pluck up, or rapture, all his children (his first-born-Jews and his adopted children-Christians) and take them to his house (paradise) for 7 years while he deals with the evil ones left on earth. At the end of the last battle, all his children will return with the Lord and live in the land God promised Abram for 1,000 years, the final Day of Rest.
