"THE" SIGN OF CHRIST'S COMING AND THE END OF THE AGE……Matthew 24
by Keith Hunt
WE SAW LAST TIME THAT THE DISCIPLES ASKED JESUS WHAT WOULD BE THE SING OF HIS COMING AND THE END OF THE AGE ["WORLD" IN THE KJV].
WE SAW THAT MATTHEW 24 HAS NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH 70 A.D.
IT IS, AS CLEARLY STATED, WHAT WOULD BE THE SIGN OF JESUS' COMING AND THE END OF THIS AGE.
IN A SHORT OUTLINE JESUS ANSWERS THE QUESTION IN VERSES 4 - 14.
FIRST, MANY WOULD COME SAYING CHRIST IS THE CHRIST BUT THEY WOULD DECEIVE MANY - VERSES 4-5. IT WOULD NOT BE THE FEW THAT WOULD BE DECEIVED BUT THE MANY! AND SO IT IS TODAY, WE HAVE A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF TEACHERS OF THE BIBLE AND CHRISTIANITY. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS VIEW THE RELIGIOUS CHANNELS ON TV FOR A WEEK; GET ON TUBE FOR A WEEK AND SEE ALL THE CHRISTIAN TEACHERS YOU CAN FIND. THE SAME WITH THE INTERNET..... THE NUMBER OF CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS TEACHERS IS MASSIVE, INTO THE HUNDREDS ON THOSE THREE MEDIA MARKETS. AND THEN YOU HAVE ALL THE LOCAL CHURCHES IN CITIES AND TOWNS, ESPECIALLY IN THE WESTERN WORLD.
TRULY WE ARE LIVING IN THE FULFILMENT OF ONE SIGN THAT JESUS SAID WOULD COME, LEADING UP TO HIS RETURN AND THE END OF THIS AGE. JESUS SAID TAKE HEED THAT NO MAN DECEIVE YOU. IT WOULD BE THE MANY NOT THE FEW THAT WOULD BE DECEIVED. YOU NEED TO BE READING YOUR BIBLE FROM COVER TO COVER; YOU NEED TO BE SEARCHING THE BIBLE; YOU HAVE TO HAVE A DESIRE FOR TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS, A HUNGER FOR IT, A THIRST FOR IT, LIKE A MAN WALKING IN THE DESERT. THE APOSTLE PAUL SAID, PROVE ALL THINGS AND HOLD FAST TO THAT WHICH IS GOOD. HE ALSO SAID, STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF APPROVED OF GOD, A WORKMAN THAT NEEDETH NOT BE ASHAMED, RIGHTLY DIVIDING [PUTTING TOGETHER] THE WORD OF GOD. ONLY THOSE WHO DO THIS WILL NOT BE DECEIVED.
VERSES 6-8 JESUS GIVES PHYSICAL SIGNS TO PRECEDE HIS COMING - WARS, FAMINES, PESTILENCE, EARTHQUAKES. CERTAINLY ALL THIS IS TODAY ON THE EARTH AS NEVER BEFORE. THE TWO BIGGEST WARS IN HISTORY HAVE TAKEN PLACE IN THE LAST 100 YEARS, AND MANY MORE WARS SINCE. THE CONDITIONS OF THE SIGNS CHRIST GAVE IN THESE VERSES ARE BEING FULFILLED AS NEVER BEFORE IN EARTH.
BUT JESUS SAID, THESE THINGS WILL COME TO PASS BUT THE END WOULD NOT BE YET...... THEY ARE THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS; THERE WAS TO BE ONE HUGE FINAL SIGN THAT WOULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT AND TELLING SIGN FOR JESUS TO RETURN, FOR HIS DISCIPLES TO KNOW TIME IS SHORT AND HIS RETURN IS CLOSE AT HAND.
SPEAKING REMEMBER TO HIS DISCIPLES, HE SAID, "THEN SHALL THEY DELIVER YOU UP TO BE AFFLICTED, AND SHALL KILL YOU: AND YOU SHALL BE HATED OF ALL NATIONS FOR MY NAME'S SAKE. AND THEN SHALL MANY BE OFFENDED, AND SHALL BETRAY ONE ANOTHER, AND SHALL HATE ONE ANOTHER. AND MANY FALSE PROPHETS SHALL ARISE AND SHALL DECEIVE MANY. AND BECAUSE INIQUITY SHALL ABOUND, THE LOVE OF MANY SHALL WAX COLD" (verses 9-12).
DO YOU GET IT? DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT CHRIST IS SAYING? IT IS VERY PLAIN! IT IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND..... BEFORE AND LEADING TO JESUS RETURNING, THERE WILL BE A GREAT PERSECUTION OF JESUS' TRUE DISCIPLES. THERE WILL COME A TIME OF FALSE PROPHETS/MINISTERS DECEIVING MANY, AND A MIGHTY AFFLICTION AND KILLING OF TRUE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST. THIS OBVIOUSLY HAS NOT TAKEN PLACE YET, FOR JESUS HAS NOT YET RETURNED.....THIS KILLING OF TRUE SAINTS HAS YET TO HAPPEN!
SOME WILL [IF THEY KNOW THEIR BIBLE] JUMP TO LUKE 21:36 AND SAY, WELL WE CAN ESCAPE THIS PERSECUTION. SOME TEACH THE SILLY IDEA OF A "SECRET RAPTURE' WHICH I HAVE DEBUNKED IN MANY STUDIES ON THIS WEBSITE.
BUT YES LUKE 21:36 IS IN THE GOSPELS. THE ANSWER LIES IN REVELATION 12. THE HISTORY OF THE TRUE CHURCH OF GOD. WE FIND SOME WILL ESCAPE TO THE WILDERNESS, AND THOSE LEFT SATAN WILL GO AFTER. SO BOTH MATTHEW AND LUKE ARE CORRECT, AND REVELATION 12 SHOWS HOW THEY ARE BOTH CORRECT.
SO NOT UNTIL THERE IS A LAST, END TIME PERSECUTION AND KILLING OF TRUE CHILDREN OF GOD, WILL JESUS RETURN. IT IS JUST THAT SIMPLE. REGARDLESS OF OTHER PHYSICAL SIGNS PROPHECY GIVES LEADING TO THE RETURN OF CHRIST, THIS ONE SIGN IS THE KEY SIGN...... WHEN TRUE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST ARE BEING PERSECUTED AND SOME KILLED IN A HUGE WAY, WITH MANY FALSE PROPHETS DECEIVING MANY, THEN AND ONLY THEN CAN YOU KNOW FOR SURE, JESUS' RETURN IS VERY NEAR INDEED.
WE HAVE NEVER HAD THIS KEY SIGN COME TO PASS, HENCE ONE IMPORTANT CLUE AS TO WHY JESUS HAS NOT YET RETURNED. CHRIST WILL NOT COME AGAIN UNTIL THIS SIGN OF THE KILLING OF TRUE SAINTS HAS TAKEN PLACE. IT MATTERS NOT WHAT FALSE PROPHETS SAY ABOUT THIS AND THAT SIGN THEY WANT TO GIVE YOU, SO MANY THINK JESUS MAY RETURN NEXT YEAR OR THE YEAR AFTER, AS THEY WATCH THINGS HAPPENING IN THE MIDDLE EAST, OR IN JERUSALEM, OR IN RUSSIA, OR IN THE USA AND ETC. JESUS WILL NOT RETURN UNTIL THERE IS A MIGHTY PERSECUTION AND KILLING OF TRUE CHILDREN OF GOD. WHICH HAS NOT YET TAKEN PLACE, BUT INDEED WILL YET COME TO PASS.
THEN JESUS GAVE ONE MORE IMPORTANT SIGN "THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD AS A WITNESS UNTO ALL NATIONS, AND THEN SHALL THE END COME" [verse 14].
MANY HAVE TRIED TO TIE THIS IN WITH SOME GROUP SENDING OUT THE GOSPEL VIA TV, OR RADIO, OR THE PRINTED WORD, OR ON YOUTUBE, OR THE INTERNET....NONE OF WHICH ARE CORRECT.
THE ANSWER AGAIN IS FOUND IN THE BILE - IN THE LAST BOOK OF THE BIBLE - THE BOOK OF REVELATION.
TURN TO CHAPTER 14 IN THAT BOOK; SEE IT FOR YOURSELF; THE BIBLE INTERPRETS ITSELF. VERSE 6.
"AND I SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FLY IN THE MIDST OF HEAVEN, HAVING THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL TO PREACH UNTO THEM THAT DWELL ON THE EARTH, AND TO EVERY NATION, AND KINDRED, AND TONGUE, AND PEOPLE."
THERE IT IS.... THE BIBLE INTERPRETING THE BIBLE. AFTER THE COMING GREAT PERSECUTION AND KILLING OF TRUE SAINTS, AFTER THE 7TH ANGEL SOUNDS [REVELATION 11:15]; AFTER ALL THAT COMES WITH THE 7TH ANGEL TRUMPET, AT THE RIGHT TIME, ANOTHER ANGEL GOES FORTH PROCLAIMING TO ALL NATIONS AND ALL PEOPLES, THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL; AFTER THAT ANGEL HAS DONE ITS JOB, THEN JESUS IS EXTREMELY NEAR TO COMING, EVEN AT THE DOOR.
NOW THAT IS THE KEY OUTLINE TO JESUS' RETURN.
THEN IN MATTHEW 24 STARTING WITH VERSE 15, CHRIST GOES INTO SOME DETAIL OF THINGS INCLUDED IN THE OVERALL PROPHECY HE JUST GAVE TO HIS TRUE DISCIPLES.
WE'LL LOOK AT THAT NEXT TIME.
