Turning Point Radio - A Geographical Prophecy: Jerusalem

March 28, 2026·29 min·2 clips

Prime Minister Netanyahu declared it a glorious day as the US moved its embassy to Jerusalem, marking a historic shift.

Dr. David Jeremiah hosts this episode of Turning Point Weekend Edition, focusing on Jerusalem's religious and prophetic significance. He presents Jerusalem as central to biblical prophecy and God's future plans for humanity. Jeremiah recounts the May 14, 2018, opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, attended by 800 guests including U.S. officials and Israel's Prime Minister. He describes Jerusalem's physical landmarks, like the Temple Mount and the Mount of Olives, from personal visits. The episode states Jerusalem is mentioned 811 times in the Bible, far more than the second-most mentioned city, Babylon. Jeremiah cites Ezekiel and 1 Kings to frame Jerusalem as a city chosen by God since ancient times. He references prophetic writer Randall Price, who calls Jerusalem "God's stage for the final drama." The message details that Christ's second coming and millennial reign will be centered in Jerusalem. It then transitions to describing the New Jerusalem from Revelation chapters 21 and 22. This future city is depicted with gates of pearl, streets of gold, and the river of life. A surprising claim is that 81% of United Nations resolutions criticizing countries from 2012 to 2019 targeted Israel. Jeremiah describes a personal, almost surreal feeling when visiting Jerusalem, as if "walking in God's city." He notes Jerusalem is heavily armed, calling it "the most prepared city to protect itself" he has ever seen. The episode asserts that the 2018 embassy move turned "another key in the grand lock of biblical prophecy." It lists eight types of people, from the "cowardly" to "all liars," who are excluded from the New Jerusalem according to Revelation 21:8. Jeremiah emphasizes that in eternity, seeing Jesus Christ will overshadow even the city's magnificent beauty. The tone is educational and sermonic, delivered with reverent and passionate conviction. The style is expository, weaving personal anecdote with biblical citation and contemporary political reference. Listeners interested in Christian eschatology, Bible prophecy, and the intersection of faith and modern Middle Eastern politics would appreciate this episode. Those seeking secular historical analysis or who are uncomfortable with evangelical theological perspectives might choose to skip it.
