A layman's commentary on Matthew 24. This generation will by no means pass away. Matthew 24:32-35

We are in Matthew 24 and now looking at the parable of the Fig Tree. Let’s open this with a broad mental attitude. Finis Jennings Dake tells us that this parable is the “First of five parables in Matthew 24-25: the fig tree, illustrating the nearness of His return.” The parable has everything to do with Jesus returning as the Messiah. This has nothing to do with the church. The context of the…

Adam and the beginnings of sin. Genesis 1-3.

Let’s begin this study with what I consider “the beginning.” Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” This statement opens our look into Genesis, but there is a difficulty, and it is this: “The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.” Genesis 1:2 NKJV If we…

I got a message from a friend that I needed to address.

I received a message that read something like this—I say sort of because I had to make it legible. I am not sure how my acquaintance integrated this point about “The blood on his cloak,” but he added some say it’s the blood of the saints, while others say it is His blood. To this, my friend responds, “not so, it is the blood of His enemies.” To this statement, those people who asked him agreed…

A layman's commentary on Matthew 24 verses 29 through 31 _ Immediately after the tribulation of those days.

Praise the Lord; He is coming. “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” Matthew 24:29 NKJV If this portrays the end of the seven years, what has the world been enduring? The catching away of the church has come, and we are gone. The departure of…

An interruption of the Layman's commentary. Are there prophets in this enlightened time of the New Testament?

My pastor, who is not the only one, will adamantly proclaim that there are NO prophets since the arrival of the New Testament. Is that true? Let’s see what the scriptures say. “For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Since we have gifts that differ…

A layman's commentary on Matthew 24, verses 16 - 28. Let those in Judea flee to the mountains.

We are now in chapter five of my Layman’s commentary on Matthew 24, and we are in the section identified by the publishers as the, Abomination of Desolation. Matthew 24:15 tells us this – “Therefore when you see the ‘ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand),” NKJV The abomination, as described by Daniel, does not…

A layman's commentary on Matthew 24 verse 15. The Abomination of Desolations.

The NASB entitles this next section, The Abomination of Desolation. As a standalone statement, this makes no sense to me, and thus, we begin a deep dive into Matthew 24:15 and beyond. “When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso reads, let him understand:).” Matthew 24:15 KJV When I was young, one of the first…

A layman's commentary on Matthew 24. Matthew 24:14. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world

Our last post on Matthew 24 opened with “Because Iniquity will abound.” Jesus equated this iniquity to false prophets and lawlessness. There are two prominent translations of the Greek word anomia, and the King James gives us this. “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” Matthew 24:12 KJV A common alternative reads like this. “And because lawlessness shall abound,…

An interruption of the layman's commentary of Matthew 24. Let's talk about the age of the earth from a Biblical point of view.

We had a house guest recently, and I try not to overwhelm them with my deep dives into scripture. But a family member had also stopped in, and that person instigated this conversation under the pretense of pointing out the lack of understanding in someone else. This explosive delivery on the age of the earth was clearly directed at several of us because we do not adhere to the to a young earth…

A laymans commentary on Matthew 24. Chapter Four, verses 11- 15. “Because iniquity shall abound.”

Chapter Four “Because iniquity shall abound.” Matthew 24:11 NASB “Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many.” Matthew is not the only one to make this statement. “Many will come in [appropriating to themselves] the name [of Messiah] which belongs to Me [basing their claims on the use of My name], saying, I am [He]! And they will mislead many.” Mark 13:6 AMP And we find something…

A layman's commentary on Matthew 24. Chapter Three, verses 7- 10. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. Isn't that what we are seeing?

Chapter three. “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:” Matthew 24:7 “For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.” We have been talking about this very thing. The subject of verse 7 was a post I made over the course of six weeks sometime ago. I went on to say, “Now,…

A laymans commentary on Matthew 24. Chapter Two, verses 3 - 6. When shall these things be - a common question these days.

Chapter two. Tell us when these things shall be or evidence of the end of the age. Matthew 24:3 “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” Anyone who has spent time looking at the disciples’ lives knows that they had a very Jewish mindset, so…

A laymans commentary on Matthew 24. Chapter one, verses 1,2. Signs of the end of the age.

Chapter one. Signs of the End of the Age. Matthew 24:1 “And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.” The disciples, proud of their heritage and the temple, were shaken by Jesus’s interaction with the scribes and Pharisees and nervously pointed out the temple construction to Jesus. I am sure Jesus was aware of…

The antichrist. How, then, do we fit the Roman Empire into this mix? Daniel 9:26 and a few other verses.

In the previous post, I referred to Daniel describing the statue, with the head of gold, to Nebuchadnezzar. He tells Nebuchadnezzar that he is the head of gold. Both the silver and the bronze are referred to as inferior kingdoms, and though history lends a hand and gives us an identification of the Persian empire (technically the Medo-Persian empire) and the Grecian/Macedonian empire initiated…

I want to talk about the antichrist persona for a few minutes.

I pay a lot of attention to conversations about eschatology (end times events as they relate to scripture.) Everything going on around us is related to biblical end-times events; this includes Israel at war, the breakdown of our governmental systems, the collapse of global economies, and the coming of a man – the antichrist, that will shortly step up to take control over practically everyone and…

In my previous post, I had hoped to establish that all things were created perfectly from the moment Jesus first spoke all things into existence. I believe that the primary creation happened in verse one. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1 NKJV But writing and thinking through the events of the first few verses of Genesis, I am reminded that Jesus, in time, will…
