Question 2: “Did Ezekiel’s Prophecies come true?”

Answer: “Over 500 years later, greedy groups in Jerusalem destroyed their city and lands. They began ‘Three Jewish Wars’ for freedom from Rome. The first began before Nero died, in 68 AD. The last was in 129 AD. Lands and cities were destroyed by the Romans.”

Question 3: “What was the amazing detail in his Prophecy from 592 BC?”

Answer: “This tiny detail is in Ezekiel 9:3-5! ‘The Glory of The God of Israel rose off the cherubs where It had been and went up to the threshold of The Temple. He called the man in white with a scribe’s ink horn in his belt and said, ‘Go through the city, all through Jerusalem, and mark a cross on the foreheads of all who deplore and disapprove of all the filth practiced within in.’

This Prophecy also predicted a New Testament version of marking doors and lintels with blood to save first-born children in Exodus 12:21.

Question 4: “What happened to those early Catholics who were ‘marked with a cross’?”

Answer: “Eusebius and Epiphanius wrote that God got the early Catholics out of Jerusalem. ‘Disaster is coming! Get out of the city! Move to Pella, and you will be safe.’

~

Question: “Did the early Catholics in Jerusalem relocate to Pella while they could still escape from Jerusalem?”

Answer: “Yes.”

~

Question: “Was Jerusalem destroyed?”

Answer: “Yes. Even The Temple was flattened. Josephus reports that the war was so bad there was ‘Not a single tree was left growing within 13 miles of Jerusalem’. Two later rebellions brought even more destruction to Jewish people throughout The Roman Empire.”

~

Question: “How can we save ourselves when God’s wrath falls on peoples and nations?”
