The Sign of Christ’s Coming | Matthew 24, the Day of the Lord & the Rapture
What is the sign of Christ’s coming, and what did Jesus mean by “the end of the age” in Matthew 24? In this Bible prophecy study, we examine the Olivet Discourse and explore how Jesus’ teaching connects with the Day of the Lord, the Parousia, Daniel’s 70th Week, the Antichrist, the Great Tribulation, and the Rapture.
What You’ll Learn
This teaching walks through Matthew 24 and compares Jesus’ prophetic sequence with the seals of Revelation. You’ll examine the significance of false Christs, wars, famines, persecution, and the beginning of birth pangs, and why these events are presented as signs leading toward Christ’s return. The study also explores the midpoint of Daniel’s 70th Week and the Abomination of Desolation.
The Great Tribulation & the Falling Away
A major focus is Jesus’ warning that believers will experience severe persecution, that many will fall away, and that the love of many will grow cold. The teaching examines what it means to endure to the end and how the Greek concept of being delivered or gathered relates to the Rapture and resurrection.
The Final Test: Christ or Antichrist?
The lesson also explores Revelation 14 and 2 Thessalonians 2, including the warning about the Mark of the Beast, the deception of Antichrist, the worldwide proclamation of the gospel, and the final choice between worshiping God or Antichrist. The video presents a serious warning about spiritual readiness and the importance of being alert and well-grounded in Scripture.
