Who are God's end-time dealings focused on?
God's end-time dealings are focused predominantly on His covenant people, Israel. While the events will be worldwide and not just a Middle East matter, the final tribulation period centers predominantly on God dealing with the nation of Israel as His primary focus.
Les explains that at the midpoint of the tribulation, the Antichrist defiles the temple and sets up his rule in Jerusalem for the final three and a half years. Jerusalem becomes the capstone of all these final events. Les emphasizes that while all the world will fall under these events, God is dealing predominantly with His covenant people, Israel. It is not just a Middle East issue but worldwide, yet Israel remains the primary focus.
