"It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine." - R.E.M. Lyrics
The context: Luke 20:20-26
Jesus predicts 3 big events:
1. The near event:
The destruction of Jerusalem - Luke 21:5-24
2. The in-between event:
The Times of the Gentiles Luke 21:24
3. The far event:
Jesus' return to set up his kingdom Luke 21:25-28
The principle
The coming of Jesus' Kingdom is always preceded by upheaval Luke 21:29-33
In The Meantime
Luke 21:34-38
Done be deceived by false prophets and date setters.
Expect upheaval and persecution.
Pray for strength and protection
Stay faithful to Jesus

ReplyDeleteThank you Noelle :)
DeleteIt makes me uncomfortable when they're shouting it like that. Anything fire and brimstone just scares me and doesn't comfort me. I find the idea of heaven comforting, so that kind of messaging just pushes me away which probably isn't their intent.
