Why is it certain Israel will not disappear despite the threats against it?

Israel’s survival is certain because the Creator promised that the race, breed, and nation of Israel shall not pass away until all things are fulfilled. Despite Middle Eastern opposition, worldwide hostility, and intermarriage threatening identity, God’s promise guarantees they will not disappear before His purposes are completed.

Les explains that the Greek word geneo refers to the race, breed, or nation of Israel, and the promise “shall not pass” means it is not going to disappear until all things be fulfilled. That is a promise from the Creator Himself. Les notes that if it were not for that promise, there would be reason to think Israel could yet disappear, especially since all the nations of the Middle East are against them, the world is turning against them, and they are intermarrying at an alarming rate of over 52%, which could quickly cause them to lose their identity. Yet in spite of everything going against this little nation, they are not going to disappear until everything is fulfilled. Coming back to Genesis chapter 12, God promised Abraham a nation of people that would bring about the Redeemer and the King, along with their geographical area, and through it all God’s purposes would be fulfilled.

Matthew 24:34

Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
