According to Zechariah 14:3, what will the LORD do when the Gentile nations are destroying Israel?
Zechariah 14:3 states that when it looks like there is no hope, the LORD will go forth and fight against those Gentile nations that have come to destroy the nation of Israel. He will fight as He fought in the day of battle.
Les teaches that Zechariah 14 is still speaking of the Second Coming. The context describes Jerusalem being ravaged, half the city going into captivity, and the rest not being cut off. Then in verse 3, when it looks like there is no hope, the LORD goes forth and fights against those Gentile nations that have come to destroy Israel. He fights as He fought in the day of battle. Les also connects this to Acts chapter 1, where the same Jesus who ascended from the Mount of Olives will come again in like manner, returning to the Mount of Olives.
Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
