Jerusalem: Why all the conflict? What's the future for Jerusalem and Israel?

Jerusalem is in the news nearly every day and has been for the last seventy years. The state of Israel was established on May 15, 1948. Since their Babylonian captivity, which was over five-hundred years before Christ, the Jews did not control their own country or the city of Jerusalem, except for a few brief years. In 70 A.D. the Romans destroyed their holy temple, slaughtered tens of thousands of them and made many others slaves. From that time forward, the Jewish people have been killed and driven from their homeland. They have also been persecuted wherever they went and made vagabonds with no home.Since the return of the Jews to their ancestral homeland there has not been peace in a city that God himself established as the City of Peace. Jerusalem has been fought over for many centuries and is still a flashpoint between the Jews and those that claim it does not belong to them. It will fulfill its destiny, however, because God is in control of its future. In this book, I will give the history of Jerusalem and Israel, the promises God made to His people, the Jews, and all those who follow Him. I will also explain the prophecies that show what awesome things will take place concerning Jerusalem, which will be in the not too distant future.Jerusalem is destined for greatness like no other city on earth. The reason is that it is the key to hundreds of biblical prophecies and the place where the armies of the world will come together to fight at Armageddon. Yes, only after this battle will the world realize how important Jerusalem and the Land of Israel are to God. Then the world will know how much love He has for the city, the land and the people that will call it home, both Jew and gentile.
