We believe in the blessed hope, the return of Jesus Christ for his church prior to the great tribulation, after which Jesus will return in power and glory with the saints to establish a literal Messianic kingdom upon planet earth lasting 1000 years.  We believe that the nation of Israel will be restored at this time as the head of nations (Titus 2:13, Rev. 19:11-16, 20:4, Rom. 11:25-26, Deut. 28:13).
