Mat 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
Mat 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
I believe that this is the only time Jesus mentions the overthrow of Jerusalem,and He mentioned it because the disciples said look at these great buildings,and Jesus said they are coming down so do not think they are so great.
Mat 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Then Jesus went off to be on His own,and the disciples came to Him and asked what shall be the sign of His coming,and the end of the world,and surely the end of the world was not back in the first century.
Mat 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
If it is a physical overthrow of Jerusalem why is Jesus warning them of spiritual deception,for Jesus came unto His own and His own did not receive Him,and Jesus said their house is left unto them desolate until they say blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord,so Israel as a nation did not turn to Jesus,and that is why the Roman Empire had power to overthrow them.
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
How can the disciples hear of wars,and rumors of wars,and know nation shall rise against nation,and kingdom against kingdom,and of famines,and pestilences,and earthquakes,that occur on different parts of the world without technology to be able to observe and hear of what the world is doing,and what is going on in the world.
If there was not technology and it was back at their time how much are you going to know what is going on in the earth.Go outside and look around,for that is about all you know what is going on in the world.How are you supposed to know of nations going against each other,and kingdoms going against each other,and famines,and pestilences,and earthquakes,happening on different places of the earth.
Dan 12:4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
Dan 12:8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
Dan 12:9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Daniel did not understand what was told him,but was told to go his way,for the book is sealed until the time of the end,which means they will be able to understand it at the end time.
Because many shall run to and fro,advanced travel,and knowledge shall be increased,advanced technology,making it possible for the saints to hear,and see,and know of what is going on in the world,and to be able to understand how the world can come together as one which they will rebel against God.
The disciples at the time of Jesus would be in the same position as Daniel having a limited view of their world and would not be able to see,and hear,and know of things going on in the earth,so it would have to be in the future as now.
By technology we know of WW1,WW2,and wars,and hear of wars,and rumors of wars,and can know of the troubles that occur around the world.
Without technology what are you going to know.Not much but that your garden is growing some good tomatoes this year,and Junior dug a good hole with that stick he is playing with like they did back in the day.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Also the saints shall be hated of all nations but how can they be hated of all nations if it is only in that area,and also if it is a physical overthrow of Jerusalem why does Jesus refer to a spiritual persecution,when the nation of Israel rejected Christ in their governmental,and religious,operation.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Again why the spiritual deception warning when it is a physical overthrow of Jerusalem for rejecting Christ,not for accepting Christ.
But at the time now we see the spiritual deception that applies,but mainly it is speaking of the new age movement,for the new age movement interpretation of the Bible is the beginning of the end and will lead the world to the beast kingdom where they rebel against God,for it is the time for God to end this sin business on earth,and He sure did not end it in the past for sin still goes on.
Also to point out the 70 weeks that people think was fulfilled in the first century and show that it is not true.
Dan 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
70 weeks are determined upon Israel as a nation to accept Jesus as their Messiah.69 weeks have passed,and people debate about the 70th week,but the 70th week could of not been fulfilled for Israel as a nation has not accepted Jesus yet.
The 70th week is the time that God causes all people that do not love Him to follow the beast kingdom,and when they do repentance and salvation are no longer available to them,and God can end this sin business on earth,and bring Israel as a nation to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah fulfilling the 70 weeks.
That is why the Bible says Israel is blinded in part,until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in,and so all Israel shall be saved.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
How could that apply in the first century,but we see that it does apply today with the big flow of money,and material things,especially in America,that causes people to be selfish,and arrogant,with a me attitude,and then they do not like each other as much which can be testified by many people that point out the way it is today compared to how it was years ago.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
The Gospel shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations,but that could of not happened in the first century,but we can see it happening today,and with advanced technology,and travel,it can happen,for God will not give up on the world until the world gives up on Him,so He is not going to end this sin business on earth until all nations know and understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ,which could of not happened in the first century.
If it includes all nations,were the Native Americans saying in the first century,Ugh,me heareth of this thing they call the Gospel and me no like,let us gather ourselves,all tribes,and go attack them Jews who preach this thing called the Gospel.
Mat 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand
Mat 24:16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
Mat 24:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
Mat 24:18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
Mat 24:19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
Mat 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
The man of sin,the New Age Christ,will establish peace in the Middle East,and it will pave the way for all Jews to go to Israel,and the Jews and the Gentiles will be separated,which is what the man of sins wants for the Jews to be in one place,Israel.
The Gentile nations will come together and say Peace and safety as they try to establish peace on earth,and operate by a ten horn kingdom which is the world split in to ten sections with a leader in each section,and a unified religious system based on the new age movement that is of the occult,nature worship,witchcraft,spiritual evolution through nature,and people can still evolve,and Jesus is not Lord and Savior,but a good teacher in spiritual enlightenment,and an ascended master,and do not honor a personal God,but honor the God of forces,or the power of nature as their higher power.
God warns us of the new age movement interpretation of the Bible,and the time will come that the world will not want to endure the truth of the Bible,but want to hear it according to the new age movement,spiritual evolution through nature to be greater than their current position.
That is where the spiritual deception comes in at concerning the end time.
Mat 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
The new age movement is about the power of nature,and witchcraft,and many paths to take to spiritual enlightenment,and practices,but all are valid,and can have many Christs,and false prophets,with the path they teach to people,for the time will come they will not want to hear the truth of the Bible,but according to their own lusts,power through nature,and will heap to themselves teachers,not teacher,but teachers,and will turn their ears from the truth,and be turned unto fables.
That is where the spiritual deception comes in at.
The new age movement is about witchcraft,and will lead the world to the beast kingdom,where the beast will convince the world that he harnessed the power of nature,and obtained power,evolved,and will share this power with all who follow him,and the false prophet will do miracles in the sight of the people to convince them that the first beast did harness the power of nature,and gave this power to the false prophet,so the world will believe that the beast will share this power with all who follow him,which is what the world was wanting by practicing the new age movement,unified religious system,spiritual evolution through nature.
Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
The beast shall make war against the saints,and persecute all people who keep the commandments of God,and the testimony of Jesus Christ,and then the resurrection shall occur.
That is why the Bible says the saints cannot be gathered unto Christ until there is a falling away first,which this is when the world will not want to hear the truth of the Bible,which will happen by way of the new age movement unified religious system,and all religions interpreted by them,and religion is about evolution,and people are responsible for their own evolution,spiritual enlightenment,and a hate crime to try to convert someone to a belief not compatible,like preaching a personal God,which Christianity will rapidly decline in impacting the world with the truth,and the man of sin,New Age Christ,claims to be God which He will claim to be the Jews God and Messiah,and claim to be God to the world,which means he is the highest authority through the power of nature,and he acknowledges no personal God.
All prophesy has not happened in the first century,and Jesus is telling the saints about it,but He is directing it to the Jews in the future that have turned to Jesus as their Messiah,and a warning to all the saints.
The Bible says the new age movement will be in the latter days,and surely the latter days did not occur in the first century,and also the time will come when the world will only want to hear the Bible according to the new age movement interpretation of the Bible,which means they are not allowing the preaching of the Bible according to the belief in a personal God,and Jesus is Lord and Savior,but according to evolution,but the preaching of a personal God,and Jesus is Lord and Savior,did not stop in the first century,but it kept going on,so it is a future event when they make it international law,along with a man and a woman cannot marry for population reduction,and being a vegetarian for they worship nature.
Nah 2:3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
Nah 2:4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
Nobody can argue that this is speaking of automobiles that shall be at the time of the Lord's preparation.They did not know to call them automobiles,but chariots is a form of transportation,and this form of transportation shall have lights,and shall rage in the streets,justle against one another in many lanes roads,close knit traffic,and shall travel fast.
Isa 31:4 For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
Isa 31:5 As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.
This appears to be the 6th day war,1967,when Israeli fighter pilots paved the way to win the war,and they took control of Jerusalem,which God is doing the plan of restoring Israel back to their land,all the Jews,so He can turn them to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah.
