Feasts primarily, which He gave to Israel to celebrate, and with the
birth of the Church, The “One New Man” composed of both Jew and
Gentile. Then the latter who are grafted into their Jewish Roots,
have all the benefits of Abraham also! And has the church replaced
Israel? Not at all! In Romans 11 the apostle Paul, the Apostle to the
Uncircumcision, we Gentiles - clearly points out the Wisdom of our
God. Temporarily He has placed a Sovereign blindness upon Israel
until the fullness of the Gentiles comes into His Kingdom. </span></span></font><u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="">Then</span></font></u><font style="font-size: 11pt;" size="2"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

God in the 7 points below given to Dr. Daniel Juster - brings comfort
and encouragement to our souls. Through the 10 plagues on Egypt, the
Passover, and the Crossing of the Red sea, we find a 7 point key to
place upon the book of Revelation. This opens this book with a clear
understanding for us in these last days.</font></p>
