How did Israel respond to Jesus as the Christ?
Israel rejected Jesus as the Christ and would not believe He was the Christ. Even as Peter and the eleven continued preaching in the Book of Acts, the nation refused to accept that Jesus was the Christ. They continued in unbelief despite that preaching.
Les teaches that Israel rejected the Christ. Even though Peter and the eleven continued to preach to Him in the Book of Acts, Israel just would not believe that Jesus was the Christ. This rejection connects with the prophetic timeline: from the command to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls, 483 years ran to Christ’s crucifixion, leaving the final seven years of Daniel’s 490-year prophecy still future. When God left off dealing with Israel early in Acts, those final seven years, called the Tribulation, had not yet been accomplished.
