What is the current state of Israel? Has it changed from what we read in the Gospels and the Book of Acts? John the Baptist preached to all the people of Israel, but many did not recognize or receive the Messiah that God sent them. They didn't know him when he came and ignored the scriptures and the prophets. Many still don't accept Jesus Christ and call him a deceiver and hence remain unsaved. The Kingdom of God was taken away from them. So, nothing is changed yet. However, we can't hate people. When the time of the Gentiles ends Israel will get another chance during the Revelation period.
