Temple Destruction and Other Signs

(Matthew 24:1–8; Luke 21:5–9)

As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, look at the magnificent stones and buildings!” Mat 24:1-51 Ezk 11:22-23 Ezk 10:19 Ezk 10:4 Ezk 7:20-22 Ezk 8:6 Mal 3:1-2 Luk 21:5-36

“Do you see all these great buildings?” Jesus replied. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” Luk 21:6 Mat 24:2 1Ki 9:7-8 Jer 26:18 Mic 3:12 2Ch 7:20-21 Luk 19:41-44 Act 6:14

While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately, Mat 21:1 Mrk 4:34 Jhn 1:40-41 Mat 13:10 Mat 13:36 Mat 17:1 Mat 24:3 Mrk 1:16-19 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to be fulfilled?” Act 1:6-7 Mat 24:3 Dan 12:6 Jhn 21:21-22 Dan 12:8 Luk 21:7

Jesus began by telling them, “See to it that no one deceives you. Col 2:8 Eph 5:6 Jer 29:8 1Co 15:33 1Jn 4:1 2Th 2:3 Luk 21:8 Mat 24:4-5 Many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and will deceive many. Mrk 13:22 1Jn 4:1 Jhn 5:43 Act 5:36-39 Jer 14:14 Jer 23:21-25 Jhn 8:24 Mat 24:11 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come. Luk 21:9-11 Jhn 14:27 Mat 24:6-7 Psa 112:7 Psa 27:3 Act 17:3 2Sa 14:14 Isa 8:12 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, as well as famines. These are the beginning of birth pains. Mat 24:8 Psa 48:6 1Th 5:3 Hag 2:22 Isa 37:3 Act 11:28 Isa 19:2 Jer 13:21

Witnessing to All Nations

(Matthew 24:9–14; Luke 21:10–19)

So be on your guard. You will be delivered over to the councils and beaten in the synagogues. On My account you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them. Mat 10:17-18 Jhn 16:2 1Co 4:9-13 Mrk 13:5 Php 1:29 2Co 11:23-27 2Th 1:5 Act 12:1-3 And the gospel must first be proclaimed to all the nations. Mat 24:14 Col 1:23 Col 1:6 Mrk 16:15 Rev 14:6 Rom 10:18 Mat 28:18-19 Rom 1:8 But when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand what to say. Instead, speak whatever you are given at that time, for it will not be you speaking, but the Holy Spirit. Luk 21:14-15 Luk 12:11-12 Mat 10:19-21 Act 6:10 1Co 2:13 1Pe 1:12 2Sa 23:2 Isa 50:4

Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rise against their parents and have them put to death. Mat 10:21 Luk 12:52-53 Ezk 38:21 Luk 21:16 Mat 24:10 Mic 7:4-6 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved. Jhn 15:18-19 Mat 10:22 Luk 6:22 Mat 24:13 Gal 6:9 Rom 2:7 Jhn 15:21 Mat 5:11-12

The Abomination of Desolation

(Matthew 24:15–25; Luke 21:20–24)

So when you see the abomination of desolation ¹standing where it should not be ²(let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Dan 12:11 Dan 9:27 Dan 11:31 Mat 24:15-28 Luk 21:20-24 1Co 14:20 Act 8:30-31 Dan 8:13 Let no one on the housetop go back inside to retrieve anything from his house. Heb 11:7 Luk 17:31-33 Php 3:7-8 Act 27:18-19 Act 27:38 Gen 19:15-17 Gen 19:22 Gen 19:26 And let no one in the field return for his cloak.

How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers! Lam 4:10 Luk 23:29 Deu 28:56-57 Hos 13:16 Hos 9:14 Lam 2:19-20 Lam 4:3-4 Luk 21:23 Pray that this will not occur in the winter. For those will be days of tribulation unmatched from the beginning of God’s creation until now, and never to be seen again. Dan 12:1 Jol 2:2 Mat 24:21 Dan 9:26 Dan 9:12 Lam 1:12 Luk 21:22-24 Mrk 10:6 If the Lord had not cut short those days, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has cut them short. Mat 24:22 Isa 65:8-9 Zec 13:8-9 Rom 11:28-32 Isa 1:9 Isa 6:13 Rom 11:23-24 Rom 11:5-7

At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it. Luk 21:8 Mat 24:23-25 Mat 24:5 Deu 13:1-3 Luk 17:23-24 Jhn 5:43 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders that would deceive even the elect, if that were possible. Mat 24:24 2Th 2:8-14 Mrk 13:6 1Jn 2:26 Mat 7:15 Jhn 10:27-28 1Jn 2:19 Jhn 4:48 So be on your guard; I have told you everything in advance. 2Pe 3:17 Isa 44:7-8 Jhn 14:29 Luk 21:8 Mrk 13:5 Jhn 16:1-4 Luk 21:34 Mat 7:15

The Return of the Son of Man

(Matthew 24:26–31; Luke 21:25–28)

But in those days, after that tribulation: Isa 13:10 Act 2:19-20 Mat 24:29-31 Rev 6:12-14 2Pe 3:10 Amo 5:20 Jol 2:30-31 Jol 3:15

‘The sun will be darkened,

and the moon will not give its light;

the stars will fall from the sky, Isa 34:4 Rev 6:13

and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’ ³

At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. ⁴ Rev 1:7 Mat 16:27 Mat 24:30 Mrk 14:62 Mat 25:31 Dan 7:9-14 Mrk 8:38 1Th 4:16 And He will send out the angels to gather His elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. Zec 2:6 Mat 24:31 Deu 30:4 2Th 2:1 Rev 7:1-3 Luk 16:22 Mat 13:41 Mrk 13:20

The Lesson of the Fig Tree

(Matthew 24:32–35; Luke 21:29–33)

Now learn this lesson ⁵from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near. Luk 21:29-31 Mat 24:32-33 So also, when you see these things happening, know that He is near, ⁶ right at the door. 1Pe 4:17-18 Jas 5:9 Ezk 12:25-28 Heb 10:25-37 Ezk 7:10-12 Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened. Mat 24:34 Luk 21:32 Mat 16:28 Mat 23:36 Mrk 9:1 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away. Isa 40:8 Isa 51:6 Mat 24:35 Luk 21:33 Mat 5:18 Psa 102:25-27 Heb 1:10-12 Num 23:19

Readiness at Any Hour

(Matthew 24:36–51; Luke 12:35–48)

No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Mat 24:36-42 Act 1:7 Mat 25:13 Rev 3:3 1Th 5:1-2 Mrk 13:26-27 Mat 25:6 2Pe 3:10 Be on your guard and stay alert! ⁷ For you do not know when the appointed time will come. Luk 12:40 Rom 13:11-12 Eph 6:18 Rev 16:15 1Pe 4:7 1Pe 5:8 Luk 21:34-36 Mat 25:13

It is like a man going on a journey who left his house, put each servant in charge of his own task, and instructed the doorkeeper to keep watch. Jhn 10:3 Mat 25:14-30 Luk 12:36-40 Mat 24:45-47 1Co 15:58 Ezk 3:17-21 Ezk 33:2-9 Act 20:29-31 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know when the master of the house will return—whether in the evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or in the morning. Mat 24:42 Mrk 13:33 Mat 24:44 Mrk 14:30 Mrk 6:48 Otherwise, he may arrive without notice and find you sleeping. 1Th 5:6-7 Rom 13:11-14 Luk 21:34 Mat 24:48-51 Mrk 14:40 Mat 25:5 Isa 56:10 Mrk 14:37 And what I say to you, I say to everyone: Keep watch!” Luk 12:41-46 Mrk 13:33 Mrk 13:35
