JESUS WARNED MOST ABOUT END OF DAYS RELIGIOUS DECEPTION

The Long Hard Scope of Painful Human History

To the disciples waiting for Christ to march to power, take the Throne back, rout the Romans, and bring Israel into the Kingdom, it was troubling to hear Christ’s world. For all the things Jesus spoke about to take place meant a long time was going to pass between His first coming and His second.

As the disciples listened to Christ’s explanation of things to come for their city Jerusalem, and their people the Jews: they must have been stunned. Jesus described a long, tortuous history for Jerusalem and the Jews. Filled with wars, conquests, persecutions, and globally felt disasters.

Note it was ongoing. Not “a war” but wars. Not “a rumor” but rumors. Jesus painted the picture for a long time. Then in v. 8, He said this is only the beginning. Basically, Jesus was a pessimist. He did not see things getting better and better. In other words, Jesus was not a post-millennialist. Jesus did not tell us things were going to get better and better, rather He said worse and worse.

Jesus was a Pessimist About the Future (ROK-09; 130324AM)
