More About The End
Jesus continues to discuss future events.
Matthew 24:31-42
Angels gathering the elect (v. 31)
- from the four winds
- from one end of heaven to the other
Parable of the fig tree (v. 32-33)
- knowing that summer is near
- knowing that the end is near
The eternal words of Christ (v. 34-35)
- “This generationâ€. Does Christ mean the generation that is listening to him, or the generation that will be alive when these things happen? Or is the same group?
- Many things will disappear, but not the words of Christ.
Nobody knows, but God (v. 36)
- Whenever somebody tells you that he knows or can predict when the end will be, don’t believe him.
As in the days of Noah (v. 37-42)
- Life was routine until Noah entered the ark.
- So shall it be when Jesus returns.
