Why So Few True Israelites Will Enter the Promised Land

The Promised Land: Occupied, Destroyed, and Emptied

The scripture declares that before the true Israelites return to the Promised Land—the land of Israel in the Middle East—it will be empty and ruined due to a devastating war. Edomites and Gentiles currently occupy it, claiming it as their possession with joy and contempt (Ezekiel 36:5). YHWH speaks to Ezekiel, prophesying to the mountains: "Therefore, prophesy concerning the land of Israel... Behold, I have spoken in my jealous wrath, because you have suffered the reproach of the nations. Therefore... the nations that are all around you shall themselves suffer reproach" (Ezekiel 36:6-7).

This land has nations all around it—not an ocean like Sub-Saharan Africa, which some falsely claim as the Israelite homeland. Stop listening to demons and doctrines of demons preaching lies! YHWH promises: "But you, O mountains of Israel, shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to my people Israel, for they will soon come home" (Ezekiel 36:8). The true Israelites are not there now; they were removed, and they will come home.

"I will multiply people on you, the whole house of Israel... The cities shall be inhabited and the waste places rebuilt" (Ezekiel 36:10). This means the cities will be emptied through destruction. The land will be a continual waste from war, as in Ezekiel 38:8: Gog will go against "the land that is restored from war, the land whose people were gathered from many peoples upon the mountains of Israel, which had been a continual waste."

YHWH will cleanse the land of wickedness before the true Israelites enter (Ezekiel 36:33). This state today is wicked, doing horrible things—judgment is coming.

The Second Exodus: Judgment in the Wilderness

Israel's return happens by YHWH's power: "With a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with wrath poured out, I will be King over you. I will bring you out from the peoples... into the wilderness of the peoples, and there I will enter into judgment with you face to face" (Ezekiel 20:33-35). Like their fathers at Sinai, YHWH will judge them.

"I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant. I will purge out the rebels from among you... They shall not enter the land of Israel" (Ezekiel 20:37-38). The wicked Israelites will not enter—they'll be purged, just like their ancestors.

The New Covenant Through Yeshua: Essential for Entry

Israel broke the first covenant through sin. They need the new covenant, mediated by Yeshua—YHWH in the flesh, the Almighty God, Everlasting Father, a Son given. Without Yeshua's shed blood, no forgiveness, no entry. Cleansing from iniquities comes through Him (Ezekiel 36:33). Rebels rejecting Yeshua are transgressors—YHWH will put them to death in the wilderness.

Yeshua will lead the remnant into the land, once desolate from war. It will become like the Garden of Eden, waste cities rebuilt and inhabited. Surviving nations around—Arab nations—will know YHWH rebuilt it (Ezekiel 36:34-36).

Why So Few Will Make It: Rejection of Truth

So few Israelites will make it because most reject YHWH's Word. They heap preachers for itching ears, caring nothing for sin, repentance, or Yeshua—only claiming 'Israelite' identity and an African homeland. No change, no desire for God. They follow lies, so they'll be purged.

YHWH says: "I have spoken, and I will do it." Believe the Scripture—repent, enter the new covenant through Yeshua, or perish.
