How often is someone on an actual rooftop?
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.
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 man of sin, beast, will step in to the Jews temple, and claim to be their God and Messiah, who is of the occult, nature worship, and evolution, which he believes people can still evolve to be greater and spiritual, and does not acknowledge a personal God, but honors the God of forces, or the power of nature as his higher power, and will persecute all people that keep the commandments of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
In which there will be persecution towards those in the truth of God more than any other time in history, which Jesus shortened the days to three and one half years, for if not no flesh shall be saved, for by peace the man of sin shall destroy many, take out a third of the world's population with nuclear weapons, for arms shall stand on his part, which is concentrated in the Arab nations as they rebel against the operation of the world at that time, and destroy the mighty and holy people.
Jesus is illustrating the point that no matter where the Jews are at who are in the truth, on the rooftop, in the field, in the basement, at work, no matter where they are to run like the dickens, and get out of dodge fast.
And pray that there is nothing to hinder you from getting away as fast as possible, pray that it is not the sabbath day which might seem like someone would want to stop them for traveling too far, and pray that you do not have to drag children around with you slowing you down, and pray it is not winter where it can slow you down with the winter conditions, and more easier to spot in the wintertime when outdoors.
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.
The nation of Israel has 70 week3 determined upon them to make an end of sins, and anoint the most holy who is Jesus.
Which we see that they have not done that yet so the 70th week could of not been fulfilled.
Israel is blinded in part, until salvation is no longer available to the Gentiles, and so all Israel shall be saved.
Salvation is still available to the Gentiles so Israel is still blinded in part, so the 70th week could of not been fulfilled.
The last 7 years is the time that God causes all people that do not love Him to follow the beast kingdom, and the first three and one half years repentance, and salvation, are still available to the world, and when they take the mark of the beast then repentance, and salvation, are no longer available to the Gentiles, and then God will turn Israel to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah for the last three and one half years.
The man of sin will establish peace in the Middle East, which Trump is pushing it like no other president before him, and it will pave the way for all Jews to go to Israel, which is what the Gentile nations want, and the man of sin wants them all in one spot, but God means it for good to turn them to the truth.
The Jews will split Jerusalem with the Palestinians, and the Jews will build their temple and go back to animal sacrifices for they are still blinded in part with no hassle from the Palestinians.
The Gentile nations will come together and say Peace and safety as they try to establish peace on earth, and the 7 years period will begin.
In the middle of the 7 years period the man of sin, beast, will step in to the Jews temple and claim to be their God and Messiah, and for the last three and one half years make war against the saints and prevail against them, and they shall be given in to his hands for the last three and one half years, and when he shall accomplish to scatter the power of the holy people all things are finished.
Which then comes the end when the Son shall have delivered up the kingdom to God the Father.
Which is both Jews and Gentile that acknowledge the truth, for the man of sin, New Age Christ, is persecuting them worldwide, which is why it is the greatest persecution in the history of mankind.
And Israel is protected from physical attack for the 7 years period, although the New Age Christ persecutes the saints, so the beast does not scatter the Jews abroad, for God has the plan to restore them to the truth.
Some people think it happened in the first century, but it did not for Israel is not in the truth today that Jesus is their Messiah, which means the 70th week could of not happened, and God said He will bring the whole house of Israel, all 12 tribes, back to their land, and leave none of them in the nations anymore, and they shall know the LORD their God from that day forward, and He will never hide His face from them again, which means if it was a past prophesy Israel as a nation would be in the truth today, but they are not.
