Anti-Semitic incidents have surged globally since the Hamas attacks on Israel in October 2023, raising concerns about history potentially repeating itself. Recent statistics show alarming increases:

  • France, Spain, and UK: Over 1,000% increase
  • United Kingdom: 589% increase in anti-Semitic incidents
  • Germany: 240% increase with 202 reported incidents
  • United States: 388% rise in immediate aftermath

Bible prophecy indicates a future period called the "Great Tribulation," featuring:

  • Rise of a European "beast" power (Revelation 13)
  • Conquest of the Holy Land (Daniel 11:45)
  • Unprecedented global conflict (Matthew 24:21)
  • Formation of a 200-million-man army from eastern nations
  • Casualties affecting one-third of humanity (Revelation 9:15-18)

Current global developments show increasing hostility toward Israel:

  • UN passed 14 resolutions condemning Israel in 2023
  • Two-thirds of all UN country-specific criticisms target Israel
  • Traditional allies showing signs of decreased support

However, prophecy also indicates a positive outcome:

  • Jesus Christ's intervention will prevent total destruction (Matthew 24:22)
  • Establishment of God's Kingdom bringing global peace
  • Transformation of attitudes toward Jewish people
  • Jerusalem becoming a center of peace (Zechariah 2:12)
