-
- Christianity
"Hello and welcome. We are continuing the Olivet Discover through Matthew 24 into to 25 with an overarching theme of preparation for the Day of the LORD, the coming King, with an emphasis on mission.
To recap part 1:
Jesus foretold judgment against Jerusalem. The disciples respond with questions of when and what sign, connecting it with his coming at the end of the age. Expounding upon the OT prophets Jesus referred to the first half of the final week-of-years as the beginning of birth pains. Pointing to false Christs, war, famine, and earthquakes. Then the second half of the week-of-years, the great tribulation, as the birth pains intensify, that commences with the primary mid-week sign – the Abomination of Desolation. Listing false Christs, false prophets, death, martyrdom, apostasy, and the gospel going to all nations as a prerequisite before the end. Finally, his coming which involves, celestial signs, before the sign of the Son of Man, who comes publicly, suddenly, dramatically, in power to gather his elect, and rescue his people. He then gave 3 pictures of being caught out on that Day, and now and today we have three parables about preparing to meet the master, before judgement of the nations.
Let’s get straight into it."
