Santiago,

I hope you don't mind me throwing in my two cents worth on the linked prophecy site.

<<<In time, God decided to divide these people, and the promises that He made to them. He split them into two segments. The ten tribes, known as the house of Israel [the decendants of the sons of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel], and three tribes [also sons of Jacob], known as the house of Judah. To Judah went the kingship, and the law making. To the ten tribes went the birthright promises.>>>

God's laws had already been given to Moses upon the mount, it was the rulers of the people who started inserting more laws for their own purposes. Also any promises that God made were for all the children of Israel not just some. Both kingdoms had a long history of prophets that were sent to them from God with the same message, which consisted of telling them to turn from thier idols and seek God only.

<<< He grafts on to the tree of the root of Abraham, the wild olive branches known as the Church -- The Christians.>>>

How can the author assume that Peter, Paul, James and the rest of the apostles( who were foundation stones of the church) were nothing more than wild olive branches? Such wasn't the case, besides Christ is the root, not Abraham.

<<<Ironically the scattered tribes turn out to be the Church, but this is overview, and that's a subject on its own.>>>

I stop here as this is it gets into wild speculations that are not founded upon sound doctrine.

Chris
