Yes — Gentiles will have a place in the future Kingdom as the nations, while Israel holds the leading position.
Les Feldick teaches that God has not forgotten the Gentiles and that a small number of surviving Gentiles from each nation will enter the Kingdom in ordinary flesh and blood bodies. These Gentiles will return to their homelands and be seed stock for the population explosion during Christ's thousand-year reign, while Israel enters as the greatest nation. Zechariah 8:23 pictures these nations taking hold of the skirt of a Jew and saying, 'We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'
Zechariah 8:23 — This verse directly shows people from all languages of the nations attaching themselves to a Jew in the Kingdom age.
Zechariah 12:10 — It describes the moment Israel's remnant looks upon the pierced Messiah and is saved, making Israel the leading nation in the Kingdom.
Isaiah 24:1 — It depicts the Tribulation that precedes the Kingdom, leaving the surviving Gentiles who will enter it.
Zechariah 8:23 pictures the future Kingdom from the Gentile side: 'Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.' This shows the nations not being excluded but coming into the Kingdom age attached to Israel. Zechariah 12:10 reveals how Israel's remnant will be saved: 'And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.' Isaiah 24:1 describes the preceding Tribulation: 'Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.' And Isaiah 51:3 promises the renewal of the land: 'For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.'
Les Feldick is emphatic that God has not forgotten the Gentiles, even though the Age of Grace was primarily to them. He teaches that through the Tribulation God has been preparing Gentiles to enter the Kingdom in ordinary flesh and blood bodies. When Christ returns, two classes of people will go into the Kingdom: the saved remnant of Israel, which will be the largest single national group, and a small number of surviving Gentiles from each Gentile nation. These Gentiles will return to their homelands and serve as believing seed stock for the new generation that will populate the earth during the thousand-year reign of Christ. During that time Satan is locked up, sin is absent, and Christ rules as a benevolent absolute ruler. Israel will be the greatest nation, yet the Gentile nations are not left out — Zechariah 8:23 pictures ten men from all languages taking hold of the skirt of a Jew and saying, 'We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.' Les also stresses that this has never happened yet, but it is going to.
Les teaches that God has been preparing Gentiles during the Tribulation to go into the Kingdom in ordinary flesh and blood bodies. A small number from each Gentile nation will survive and enter the Kingdom, then return to their homelands as believing seed stock for the population explosion during the thousand-year reign.
Yes. The remnant of Israel, which sees Christ at His return and believes, enters the Kingdom as the nation of Israel and is the largest single national group. Les emphasizes that Israel will be the greatest nation in the Kingdom Age, with the twelve apostles ruling on twelve thrones over Israel. This does not remove the Gentiles; it places Israel first among the nations.
Zechariah 8:23 says that in those days ten men from all languages of the nations will take hold of the skirt of a Jew, saying, 'We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.' Les points to this as the Old Testament expectation that the nations will come to Israel.
They remain separate. Les points out that some prophecies are Jewish and that Gentiles are not in the lineage of Israel. In the Kingdom there are still classes of people: Israel as the leading nation and the Gentile nations as distinct groups. The Gentile nations remain part of the Kingdom picture rather than being absorbed into Israel.
Earth Renewed and Israel's Remnant Recognizes Christ
Les points to Isaiah 51:3 as the promise that the earth will be made like the Garden of Eden, and to Zechariah 12:10 where Israel's remnant will look on the One they pierced and be saved in a day.
God Has Not Forgotten the Gentiles
God has been preparing Gentiles to enter the Kingdom in ordinary flesh and blood bodies, and the Kingdom will see a tremendous population explosion.
Two Classes Enter the Kingdom
Israel's saved remnant enters as the largest nation, and a small number of survivors from each Gentile nation enter as seed stock for the Kingdom's new population.
A Root of Jesse Shall Reign Over the Gentiles
The promise that the root of Jesse will reign over the Gentiles and that the Gentiles will trust in Him has not happened yet, but it is going to happen.
Future Rule for the Gentiles
God will in the future bring forth judgment or rule to the Gentiles, and He has not forgotten them in the Kingdom program.
Ten Men From All Languages Take Hold of a Jew
Zechariah 8:23 shows Gentiles from all nations taking hold of the skirt of a Jew and saying, 'We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'
Gentiles Are Not in Israel's Lineage
Les explains that some prophecies are Jewish and cannot be pushed onto Gentile nations; Gentiles remain distinct.
Israel Enters as the Largest Nation, Then Gentiles
Israel's remnant enters the Kingdom as the nation of Israel and the largest group, with the twelve apostles ruling on twelve thrones, and then the Gentiles are brought into the picture.
Zechariah 8:23: Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
This is the clearest Old Testament picture of Gentile nations coming to Israel in the Kingdom age.
Zechariah 12:10: And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
This describes the salvation of Israel's remnant at Christ's return, the context for Israel's leading place in the Kingdom.
Isaiah 24:1: Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
This verse describes the Tribulation that precedes the Kingdom and leaves the surviving Gentiles.
Isaiah 51:3: For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
This points to the renewal of the earth, which Les associates with the Kingdom order into which the nations come.
Yes. Les Feldick teaches that a small number of surviving Gentiles from each nation will enter the Kingdom in ordinary flesh and blood bodies and be the seed stock for the population that fills the earth during Christ's thousand-year reign.
No. Les says God has not forgotten the Gentiles by any stretch of the imagination. Even during the Tribulation, God has been preparing Gentiles to go into the Kingdom.
They are not removed. Each nation contributes a small believing remnant to the Kingdom, and these Gentiles return to their homelands as seed stock for the new generation during the thousand-year reign.
Yes. Israel's saved remnant is the largest single national segment entering the Kingdom, making Israel the greatest nation in the Kingdom Age. Yet Israel's prominence does not mean the Gentile nations are left out.
