The Great Error of Zionism: The Holy Land was only a Type of the Church

The Great Error of Zionism: The Holy Land was only a Type of the Church

 
The essay I will reference below is so long, it would be overwhelming, so I will offer a summary below, and then give the link for those who wish to read the full discourse in detail:

SUMARRY: 

• Jesus did say that Jerusalem would be trampled by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles would  be fulfilled. But what does that mean?  Does it mean the end of the world?  Or something more prfound?  Fundamentalists believe that it is the end. And they have in general a  gravely  insane set of heresies regarding the apocalypse, the nature of Christianity, what the Holy Land really is about, and also generally tend to support the terrible realtiy of Zionism.
• According to most fully approved private revelations, we are NOT at the end of the world, but sort of in its dress rehearsal, a minor apostasy and tribulation.  After this intermediate point of epic stress, Christians will be reunited, and much of the world will come back to the Catholic Church, or enter it.  Only later does the great apostasy and tribulation come. This seems to be the best scenario from EWTN: Colin Donovan, Susan Brinkman: Are we in the end times? How then do we look at the "Times of the Gentiles"?
• I draw the conclusion that the return of the physical people of God to the physical place of their beatitude from which they  have been separated for many centuries will attend the spiritual return of the non-Catholic Chrstians to the spiritual land of Beatitude, the Church, from which they too have been separated all these centuries as well.
• The Jewish People suffered terribly at the hands of Christians and others for centuries, culminating with the horror of the Nazis. After this, it seemed appropiate that they come back to the place they had lost for some two millennia. However, the transitiion was not done entirely peacefully, with a fully peaceful integration. Many indigeninous peoples there, Palestines, Arabs of Muslim religion, and Christians of Orthodox religion, amonst others, were sometimes unlawfully killed or displaced.The knee-jerk reaction to the injustice was unfortunatelly terrible terrorism on the some of the Palestinian side. This created awful persistent conflict unto our own day between part of the state of Israel and the associated displaced Palestinians, and repeated ping pong of seemingly non-ending violence.
• The horror of October 7, an unfathomable act of incomprehensible evil against innocent civlians has led to a terrible conflict in the Middle East,. Evil is on both sides, but it seems that the Zionist retaliation has been in unreal disproportionate response.
• Peace in the world can only come to the degree that persons in this side of the end of time accept the teachings on faith and morals of the Catholic Church and the power to live them, the sacraments. This is the only hope for Middle East peace and the world
• The OT religion of the Hebrew People was only a prelude to introduce physical types to image what would become and be fulfilled by spiritual realities in thee New. In and of themselves, most of these elements were intrinsically worthless for true inner holiness. Mainly only the principles of the Decalogue truly mattered.
• When Incarnate One would come, He would show them what really mattered, and what the mere physical, ritualistic and disciplinary realties truly led to.
• The People of Old, when Christ came, mostly could not handle the Revelatio of New, they clung to the mere pictures. Subsequently, they still regarded the Holy Land as something to be grasped at in its own right, but instead, the physical holy land now was fulfilled by the Church
• The modern Zionist movement, in terrible error, still takes the Holy Land as an end to itself, and is the primary and original cause of the Middle East conflicts, even though the terrorism is never justified.
• Apocalypse 11 can shew forth a profound learning lesson at this time.
• The two witnesses can image the Church witnessing to the truths of Christ for the ages from the ultimate wellsprings and fountians of wisdom, the Oral and Written Words of God, or Scripture and Tradition.
• For the same great time that the Jews were in diaspora all these centuries, separatedd from their land and before tthey recaptured Jerusalem from Gentile trampling, the Church preached against the anti-Catholic religions who were “separated” spiritually from the spiritual holy land of the Church.
• As the Church wrapped up her great epoch of Illuminitive Way teaching in the mid 60’s through Vatical II, the literal holy city of Jerusalem ceased to be trampled by the Gentiles in the Jewish recapture of June, 1967.
• Immediately thereafter, a figurative beast of moral and spiritual apostasy arose in the West. For the last some generation and a half, this moral and spiritual apostasy has reigned, and much of Euro civs live as though the Church and God does not exist, no consience, no reason.
• But soon, the consequences of their godlessness and errors will begin to catch up, and great tribulation will ensue, the witnesses will “stand on their” feet. After all is complete, the world that survives tribulation will “be afrightted and give glory of God”, as the witnesses assume into heaven figuratively, glorifying the Church’s teaching, reunifying Chrisitians, and bringing great renewal of Catholicism in the world!
• In this way, the current reunion of the PHYSICAL people of God with the physical place of beatitude is a prelude to the reunion of the spritually separated peoples to the SPIRITUAL land of beatitude, the Catholic Church!
