What would have happened if every Jew had accepted the message in Acts?
If every Jew had accepted the message, the King could have returned, but the Tribulation had to come first. Then the Kingdom could have been set up, and Israel could have evangelized the world. Instead they rejected it, so God turned to a new program among the Gentiles.
Les explains that if every Jew had responded to the message in Acts, the King could have returned. The Tribulation had to occur first, then the Kingdom could have been set up, and Israel could have evangelized the world. It was a great opportunity, but they miffed it and rejected it. So God converted another Jew, Saul of Tarsus, saved him by grace outside Palestine on Gentile ground, took him into the desert for three years, trained him between the glorified Lord and himself, and sent him not to the Jew but to the Gentile with a whole new program.
