No — the Old Testament does not mention the Church Age.
According to Les Feldick, the Old Testament program in Psalm 2 moves directly from the Messiah's rejection and crucifixion to the wrath and vexation (the Tribulation) and then to the King set on Zion (the Kingdom). The Church Age is absent because it was a secret kept hidden in the mind of God. The Old Testament gives no hint of approximately two thousand years of the Church Age between Christ's rejection and the Tribulation.
Psalm 2:1-6 — This psalm contains the Old Testament prophetic sequence Les cites: the rejection of Messiah, the wrath/vexation, and the King on Zion — with no church age mentioned.
Psalm 2 opens with the Gentile nations raging and Israel's rulers conspiring together against the LORD and His anointed (Psalm 2:1-2). It then speaks of God speaking to them in His wrath and vexing them in His sore displeasure (Psalm 2:5), followed by God's declaration, "Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion" (Psalm 2:6). The passage records the rejection of the Messiah, the coming wrath, and the enthronement of the King — but it says nothing about a Church Age or an interval of grace.
Les Feldick teaches that the Old Testament, using Psalm 2 as the outline, knows only one program: the Messiah appears, is rejected and crucified by Jew and Gentile, ascends to the Father's right hand, then comes the wrath and vexation (the seven-year Tribulation from Daniel), and then the King is set on Zion — the Kingdom. There is no stated gap between these events and no room for the 2,000 years of the Church Age. Les stresses that the Church Age is a parenthetical period that was hidden as a secret in the mind of God and was not revealed to the Old Testament writers. Once the Body of Christ is full, God will remove the Church and resume His dealings with Israel in the final seven years before the Kingdom.
Les calls the Church Age a secret held in the mind of God. The Old Testament writers did not see it; otherwise it would not have been a secret. In Psalm 2, immediately after the rejection and crucifixion there is an indeterminate period until the nations reach a point of derision, then the seven years of tribulation, and then the King on Zion. There is no indication of any kind of gap of 2,000 years between these events.
Out of the Old Testament, the Messiah appears and is rejected by Jew and Gentile — the high priest and Pilate together against the Lord and His anointed (Psalm 2:1-2). After His ascension to the Father's right hand, the next event is the wrath and vexation, which Daniel identifies as the seven-year Tribulation. Immediately following is verse 6, "Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion" — the Kingdom. Les emphasizes that this is the whole Old Testament program, with no Church Age in it.
Les teaches that once the Church Age is completed and the Body of Christ is full, God has to take the Church out of the way so He can pick up again with the Jew in particular during the final seven years. At the end of those seven years, Christ returns at the second coming and then enters the thousand-year Kingdom.
The Parenthetical Church Age
Les places the Church Age as a parenthetical period that must be removed before God resumes His seven-year dealings with Israel and then establishes the thousand-year Kingdom.
What Is Missing from Psalm 2
Les points out that Psalm 2 moves from rejection to tribulation to Kingdom, and that the Church Age is absent because it was a secret held in the mind of God.
The Hidden Church Age
Les explains that God intentionally hid the Church Age even though He laid out Israel's program openly, using Psalm 2 as the prophetic outline.
Old Testament Writers Did Not See the Church
Les says the Old Testament writers did not see the Church Age; otherwise it would not have been a secret kept in the mind of God, and he applies Psalm 2 to the Jewish and Gentile rejection of Christ.
No Gap in the Old Testament Program
Les teaches that Psalm 2 gives no indication of a gap between the crucifixion, the wrath, and the Kingdom; there is no room in that psalm for 2,000 years.
The Order in Psalm 2
Les shows that after the rejection of the Messiah and His ascension, Psalm 2 moves through an indeterminate period to the wrath and vexation, then the King on Zion.
The Timeline from Old Testament to Kingdom
Les traces the Old Testament timeline: the Messiah comes, Israel rejects Him, then the Tribulation follows, and immediately after, "Yet have I set my King upon Zion."
The Church Age Never Hinted at in the Old Testament
Les reminds readers that the Old Testament program in Psalms 2 never gave the slightest hint of the Church Age; after rejection comes the Tribulation, then Christ returns to set up the Kingdom.
Psalm 2:1: Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
This verse shows the Gentile nations raging in opposition to God and His Anointed.
Psalm 2:2: The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
This verse describes Israel's rulers conspiring with Gentile rulers against the Messiah.
Psalm 2:5: Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
This verse is the wrath and vexation that Les identifies with the Tribulation in the Old Testament timeline.
Psalm 2:6: Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
This verse immediately follows the wrath in Psalm 2 and is associated by Les with the Kingdom on earth.
Yes, according to Les Feldick. The Old Testament program, especially Psalm 2, moves directly from the rejection of Christ to the Tribulation and then the Kingdom, with no mention of the Church Age. It was a secret kept in God's mind until He revealed it.
Because it was a secret held in the mind of God. Had the Old Testament writers seen it, it would not have remained a mystery. God later revealed it in connection with Paul's ministry to the Gentiles.
Psalm 2 shows the rejection of the Messiah, then the wrath and vexation, then the King set on Zion. The Old Testament saw no gap of 2,000 years between these events.
