Jerusalem's Glorious Future (15 of 17)
JERUSALEM: CENTER OF WORLD DESTINY

More resolutions have been passed in the United Nations regarding Jerusalem than any other city in the world. In Bible prophecy if you want to know where God is, you don't look at America, London or Paris, you look at Jerusalem. That is how you tell where we are in Bible prophecy.
