Coming on the Clouds 

Brothers and sisters in Christ, please pray for my wife that her pain be taken away and that Almighty God will grant her comfort.

May I ask Christians out there to pray for me and my fathers family. I’m going to be staying with them for a few months and they’re Mormons. This is my first time interacting with them since I started walking with Christ. We’ve had hard times in the past but I want so bad for them to see the love of the Lord in me. They’re very nice people but very lost. Please keep me in your prayers! Much love and gratitude!

If I were Satan and I wanted to place a gigantic stumbling block to the expansion of the Gospel I could not come up with a better system than Dispensationalism. Thank God for men like Pastor Jeff, Dr. Kenneth Gentry, Doug Wilson, Hank Hanegraff, just to name a few. It's too bad that great preachers like John Macarthur, David Jeremiah, and Greg Laurie subscribe to Premillennial Dispensationalism.

Boom, new paradigm just shifted in my mind.

The crown of thorns epiphany he had with his son, oh man, mind blown too. I love the sermons that provide the historical/cultural context-it gives me a greater appreciation of God’s Providence and the consistency of His Word-and I also love history, so there’s that, too. ☺️

It’s so funny reading all the comments from angry people. They dismiss all the beauty of all the correlations Jeff made between the Old Testament and the New Testament as well as all the Old Testament prophecies Jesus fulfilled. It was so beautiful! Praise God!!! I was raised as a pre-tribber but never understood it or accepted it. I’m so glad to have the opportunity now to learn all the other interpretations of eschatology. All I know is that in the end... it will all pan out! Praise God!

This was amazing and made me worship out loud while cutting the grass just now. Glory! 🙌

I believe you are doing true work of God lately and your sermons keeping focus on showing that Jesus is the promised Christ, bless your ministry brother.

This is the correct interpretation of Matthew 24 (Olivet Discourse). Victorious Eschatology is the biblical perspective rather than the pessimism of the futurists.

Our Christ has no affiliations but Our Abba. You are always safe with Him. Just draw the line in the sand.❤

Amen!! Thank you!

Am learning so much from Pastor Jeff. I try to listen to several sermons a week. Am sharing this one for sure- still in a traditional Baptist Church and as I hear all about the Return of Jesus an,d the Rapture I just don’t engage in the discussion- wish I could explain the scriptures to them but just don’t have the skill to tie it all together even though I understand it so well now.

I’m always excited to listen to a new sermon by you, Jeff. Thank you for your messages.

This channel allowing for the download is such a huge blessing. Greetings from Namibia

Just when i couldn't appreciate this guy any more he points people to a body of Christ, right down to the financial support! I know God will bless this ministry! Thank you pastor!

This has been an amazing word! Praise God!

I like Jeff's star wars illustration. I find another appropriate application as I scan the comments. It's easy to tell who actually watches the sermons based on questions asked and comments made. We use to joke about students in seminary who asked a whole bunch of questions or raised certain objections after class and we asked, "did you actually pay attention to the lecture, because he/she covered that?" Yeah, same thing... Some of you commenting, if you're not going to watch the sermons, why comment on them. That's not really fair and makes you look kind of silly. Lord bless all of you!

Great sermon thank you Pastor Jeff.

Thank You! I have been watching and listening to your lessons regarding the end of the Jewish State and the Old Covenant, with total fascination. The way you've explained the Olivet Discourse ; Daniel; and Revelation, has been like turning a key in a rusty lock. I am FINALLY beginning to understand sections of the Bible which I used to avoid, because they wouldn't make sense whenever I read it as referring to The End of The World.

I wish I could find a Pastor like this where I live. Thank Pastor Jeff , God bless you and your family and church family.

I thoroughly learned a lot from this Bible study. Thank you so much.

I wish I was there at you’re church listening to those messages as much as possible. The amount of interpretations out there retaining to end times is daunting. I could write a novel on just that thought and the amount of light you just shed from this message alone. I still have a lot more to watch and catch up on from you’re educated and literal explanation of all this, but I can honestly say I’m excited to know and watch more. I feel this is finally, the least confusing, most sensible conclusion to eschatology out there. And I can’t wait to begin watching you’re interpretation of revelation! Praise Jesus, and thank you for what you are doing Pastor Jeff.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 Jesus lives Jesus Christ is Lord Jesus loves you repent You're a sinner in need of a Savior

Mind blown! Very interesting.

This was incredible thank you Lord Jesus bless you pastor Jeff

AMEIN!

Thanks

Mind = blown

GOD BLESS... KEITH FROM GLENVIEW IL......

Wow!!!!

How do you dispute this truth. People have a hard time letting go of their prophesy expectations. It’s done

amen

So then forget about and every eye shall see him? Forget about Christ will come back the same way he ascended?

Please pray for me I am being attacked by dark forces, I went to a church but they said that dark forces do not attack people today

Ancient peoples had one all consuming concern. Water and Sunshine. Without water and sunshine, no food. No food no life. Everyday was greeted with the need for rain and sunshine. They believed the gods controlled the rain and sunshine. This is why they worshipped the gods. To keep them happy. The gods were the ones who “rode the clouds” and “came with the clouds” and “revealed themselves “in the clouds” The ancient Canaanite god Baal was called “the cloud rider.” In the first century if you claimed you would “come in the clouds,” you would have been understood by everyone that you were claiming to be God!

Wow

(I'm not your pastor) wow!! Lots of people get wrapped up on the Internet when they need to fellowship in person with like minded people I appreciate that message pastor Durban good on you brother keep up the good work

Nothing is better to hear the laughter of thy HOSTS and Heirs and our beautiful Sisters innocents YOUNGS SONS AND DAUGHTERS. INDEED is SOOTHING TO HEAR AND FOOD unto our God and the SON OF MEN. For the Kingdom of God made for THESE INNOCENT LITTLE ONES. REMEMBER YESHUA JESUS CHRIST SAID DO NOT DENY THESE INNOCENT LITTLE ONES UNBORN AND BORN. REMEMBER YESHUA JESUS CHRIST SAID, UNTO ALL WHO DENY THESE INNOCENT LITTLE ONES. LOVE YOU BELOVED HOSTS AND HEIRS JEFF. NOTHING IS WASTED BUT INCREASED. FOR SINCERE CONVERSATIONS WILL BE GIVEN SINCERE ANSWERS. JEFF LOVE YOU YESHUA MADE KINGS AND PRIEST. INDEED WHO ARE WORTH RESPECTING, HONORING, LOVING, AND GIVING MY LIFE FOR A FRIEND KIND OF LOVE.

So much Folly in this message. I understand what Jeff is saying, but I don't think he understands what he saying. When did the moon turn to blood and the sun turn black in 70 AD? Paul says the day of Christ will not come until the man of sin is revealed (2Thess 2:1-8), was the man of sin revealed in 70 AD?

I agree most of the Olivet Discourse is about the destruction of Jerusalem in the first century... however, I also see parts of this referring also to the time when Christ physically returns to raise the dead, judge the world in righteousness, and usher in the eternal state. That, and there are many times that the Bible uses a prophecy to point to one thing close in time to the time the prophet is speaking, but also at the same time referring to another event - often Christs' first or second coming - in the same breath. We see this frequently in prophecies the NT says are fulfilled in Christ's first coming, and yet were also fulfilled in an event much earlier in time. While I agree that dispensationalism and many forms of challism, or premillenialism, can be misleading - the other extreme, where one reacts to it - can be misleading as well. Jesus IS coming back: today, tomorrow, 2000 years from now, we don't know when, and he will physically and will defeat death.

About 20 years ago I had a dream rode 2 diff chariots 1 one w ox man lion eagle 2 chariot w a man dressed in armor I in sack cloath there was much more to the dream . Also about 3 weeks later I went to library picked up 5 angel books 3 book opened I seen my dream on a page it referred to ezekiel

Could you list The Kingdom of GOD series on the subscription site. They are fantasic. Shalom and Agape.

The only way the premill position can be proven is if you change the nature of how context works. You have to redefine the methodology of how to properly read contextually as well as redefining words such as “age”, “generation”, “this”, “you”, ect. It takes a great deal of textual gymnastics to arrive there.

Would you be open to a suggestion? In the Title (ie: 'Coming on the Clouds') could you include the scripture covered? Also in the Playlists have separate playlists for each book of the Bible? As in this one would be included under 'Matthew'. It's amazing how many times I come here to hear your perspective on a certain area. Thanks for this amazing gift!

God bless you and your ministry. P.s Can you please do a study on the Genesis 6 Nephilim giants and their spirits trapped here on earth? Thank you very much.

I would love Jeff to debate Don Preston on corinthians 15

I have been following Jeff Durbin and his street encounters and now have been marvelled to hear him preaching over Matthew 24 over the series of videos. Because of his love and respect for the work of God i would love you to pass on this message to him so that he might step further into his knowledge regarding the spiritual misconceptions. 1. Satan - The word Satan (Hebrew: יֵצֶר הַרַע‎ yēṣer haraʿ) as it states in Wikipedia is the inclination of mans’ heart desire to do evil things in opposition to the will of God. I will point out three bible clear illustrations. Job - In the book of Job, his friends went before God and driven by jealousy asked God to put Job in test to then deny God. Proof of this is found at the of the book when God decides to punish the three friends and not "satan". If it was the religious “satan", why would God want to punish Job’s friends? It is clear that they were jealous in opposition to God’s blessing upon Job’s life. Apostle Peter - In Matthew 16:23, Jesus rebukes the apostle Peter for trying to oppose (satan) the will/work of God on the cross. Clearly Peter could not have been possessed by a supposed spiritual entity (so called Satan) and then later on being given the keys to the Kingdom of heaven. Jesus makes it very clear as well when He says "for you mind not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.”, meaning that Peter did not comprehend the plans of God as he tries to oppose Jesus’ crucifixion. Jesus’ temptation - Here is another very easy and clear passage where Jesus is being tempted by his fleshly desires, like we are tempted and fail but he instead subdued his flesh and being God did not use his power to satisfy his body. Had Jesus (being God) had turned the stones in bread and had failed in any of the other temptations his body presented to him, he would not have been fully man and therefore would not have been righteous on the cross to remove our sins. Paul in the book of Romans 7 and 8 explains clearer then water what Jesus was going through and we all humans go through and fail in life, that is the fight of our flesh against the spirit of God that lives within us. 2. Hell (in its 3 variations)- Sheol (/ˈʃiːoʊl/ SHEE-ohl, /-əl/; Hebrew: שְׁאוֹל‎ Šəʾōl) in Hebrew only means the “place of darkness” where the dead go, throughout the bible this word is used to describe grave and nothing else. Then the word is translated into Greek Hades (/ˈheɪdiːz/; Greek: ᾍδης Hádēs; Ἅιδης Háidēs) which has the same conotation of being a place where the dead go/rest. Now the work Gehenna (/ɡɪˈhɛnə/, /ɡəˈhɛnə/[1]) or Gehinnom (literally translated as "Valley of Hinnom”) was a place at the outskirts of Jerusalem where the Kings would make their sacrifices killing their children (Jeremiah 7:31) and later their enemies of war. There is no hell such as religion created, being the phisical place where the sinner would go to, we only need to understand which of the three words are being used on the text and apply its meaning to the text. In the book of revelation where it says about the “Lake of Fire” read and understand that the words lake of fire is another figure of speech and not a literal place and it simply means what the text says: The second death (Revelation 20:14 "the spiritual death") the one that Jesus conquered on the cross of which has no power of God’s people the church, the bride, the new Jerusalem, etc. The sinners and the non-believers will be going to eternal shame which is also the lake of fire, our spirits will return to God and their spirits will die and will not dwell in the presence of God. The 20 centure idea of hell is the creation of religion to slave peaple into their doctrines creating fear and captivity, which is “satan” the opposite desire of God for our lives. I would love to have an open conversation with brother Jeff Durbin. Above anything else, I would like to say that I appreciate the work God is doing though Jeff bringing understanding of the word of God and freeing God’s people from religion.

I was a jehovahs witness please talk

Love Jeff's passion preaching the gospel! Eschatology is NOT the gospel, it is not given us to know the hour, I believe it will be obvious in hindsight, just like his first coming, this kind of speculation leads to so much division, our task isn't to make prederists or pretrip, posttrib, it's to disciple all nations and proclaim the gospel.

I know I'm late to the party but what about " He shall rule the nation's with a rod iron" ? I interpret that by He is not yet until the "fulness of the gentiles come in" and the world goes thru the greatest tribulation as ever has been on earth", "to try them that dwell on the earth" , and then the great wrath of God is poured out upon all those who took the mark of the beast for they could not buy, sell or trade without that mark..? Alot of scriptures getting left out here brothers and sisters, never fully embrace a man's interpretation and system.. I say that from studying Gods Word for many many years and learned not to embrace no system,.. postmillennialism is a system, be careful. But! One thing we all do is , no matter where your at in your walk with the Lord, preach the gospel fervently and with passion and study His Word every chance you get, go sell all you have and buy that pearl of great price!

At what point during his ascension did Jesus' body cross the firmament and enter heaven? I'm looking for specificity here, like was it before or after he escaped the earth's atmosphere?

wow, had a Bernie add before it started, couldn't even report it

Could someone point me to the passage(s) that Pastor Jeff refers to regarding Yahweh taking the same path that Jesus took before the destruction of the second temple? I'm looking for the Old Testament verses. Thank you!

What do you mean by reformed? I’m looking for a church and I love your sermons. I’ve been recently saved out of the new age occult and really wanna find a home.

Could you explain in another video your views on tithing

Jesus also clearly said that all these things happen immediately after the tribulation of those days.... so if all these have been fulfilled, that means we're already past the 7 year tribulation. Which is folly, because Jesus said when you see the abomination of desolation take place, run to the mountains. Revelation 6 gives us a detailed description of people running and hiding themselves in the mountains because the wrath of God is now come

In order to accept Jeff's interpretation of this Scripture, you also have to believe that Revelation was written before the destruction of the second temple. Going against every mainstream scholar who clearly states that Revelation was written sometime between 90-95 AD. John clearly writes in Revelation 14 about Jesus coming on the clouds with angels to gather believers. John is writing as if it's a future event that has not happened, if he is writing anytime after 70 AD there is no way the preterist view holds up.....

So what hope do we have if isn’t coming? I don’t get it.

If Jesus ushered in the kingdom with his first Advent what does the usher in with the second Advent?

Amen & Amen, it just comes together the way its, I believe intended. We should not ignore these OT symbols & OT language. Its become so common to except the imposed view of its to us (all scripture, esp Rev & Mat 24) instead of that generation. Scripture is for us not to us

I have listened to two or three hours of him talking. Can anyone tell me where on this video he explains the verses in the title of this video? Does he deny that this is the second coming of Christ? Does he deny this is the rapture spoken of in first Thessalonians chapter 4?

So what does Jeff believe about the end of time ? What will happen ?

Tell me how you explain Mark 13 verse 10 ?

Is there a playlist? It started with "we've been in this a while".

The prophecy of Jesus coming in the clouds in Matthew 24 is either a literal meaning or symbolic. Many people are looking up expecting to see 2nd coming Jesus to come from the sky on a cloud (or in a cloud or behind the cloud) not sure. But if it has a parabolic meaning, then those thinking it's a literal cloud will miss His 2nd coming. And vice versa would obviously be true too. Well we can understand which it is by looking at a prophecy in Daniel 7 about the 1st coming of Jesus. In Daniel 7:13-14, Daniel saw the son of man coming on the clouds of heaven. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power [kingdom]. Then who is it that came 2000 years ago and was given these 3 things? Yes, it was Jesus. He said he was given authority (Matthew 28:18-20). He was given glory (John 17:10, 22, 24). And He was given a kingdom (Luke 22:29-30). So we can see that Jesus fulfilled the prophecy in Daniel 7:13-14. But the prophecy given to Daniel as a vision, saw him coming with the clouds of heaven. Then, did Jesus fulfill this by coming down in a LITERAL cloud in the sky? Of course not. He came from heaven IN THE FLESH. No wonder the Jews found it hard to believe that Jesus was the one who was to come. Even now, they are still waiting for his 1st coming looking up at the sky. Then what should we understand when Jesus told his disciples that his 2nd coming will be in the same way? Yes, he is to come born in the flesh again. He will restore the truth in the last days. The dark ages and the reign of the little horn [Roman Papacy] has passed. Now the 2nd coming Christ has come when the Fig Tree [Israel] came back to life in 1948 as prophesied in Matthew 24:32-35 and Jeremiah 30:1-9. All peoples are coming out of Babylon [ALL the false apostate churches of today] and are streaming to Mount Zion as prophesied in Micah 4:1-2 to learn the ways of the Lord. That's why in Revelation 12:17 and revelation 14:12 describe the saints as those who obey God's commandments. The truth of the new covenant has been restored by the 2nd coming Christ in these last days. We are given life giving water [rain] from the true one who came in a cloud. Praise God.

What about when the angel said we would see Jesus return the same way he left after the ascension..?

Hi there. Can you check up the new church here in the east. “ Members of the Church of God international”. Can you comment on this please.

Wow, even when you think you’re being a good exegete, but you find out you’re still an eisegete. Thanks for these teachings Pastor Ninja,I think I might understand 2 Peter 3 a little better. Such a relief knowing I won’t be “left behind”. 😂 All jokes aside, he’s been covering this topic so thoroughly because so many people have been mislead on this important topic...the rapture mindset is equal to Satan is king, thanks to Kanye we know that’s not true. Jesus is King now, sovereign and patient with us dummies so that we might repent and know him. What an awesome God. He is patient with us for matters of eternity when we can’t even be patient in the Chick-Fil-A line.

John Bray Matthew 24

So, you don't think Jesus will return on the clouds? You don't think he will return as he left like the angels said he would?

Wow Praise God ! I get it ! One question , you said you were going to read from the KJV but the wording you read was slightly different but the same so what were you reading from , version I mean . So far I'm having a serious problem finding a church that believes this way in Cincinnati Ohio .

What's interesting about Isaiah 13 is it followed by Isaiah 14 which talks about the real king of Babylon but then switches to speaking of Satan and about his end at the end of THIS age SO you, Being this happened in Isaiah 14 wouldn't it make sense this same thing happened in the accompanying Isaiah 13 talking about the literal Babylone but also in the middle talking about the end time

How on earth can the 2nd coming happen in the 1st century!!!!!!?????? Matthew 24:29-31 is THE SEC0ND COMING OF CHRIST!!!!!!!

Thanks for the message. Can you please explain these words from Zechariah 12, you failed to explain them. If mourning is about judgement on the land and people. Why are they mourning a loss as that of an only Son with reference to the one who is peirced? "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn.

This Generation applies in CONTEXT to the PARABLE of the FIG TREE

Is Jesus a faithful Jew, a servant of God or is he God in the flesh?

Brother Jeff using the KJV? Woohoo!!! Now one question… one very important question… is it a KJV Scofield? 😎

Well there are some good points to back the preterist view, but trying to change the angels to messengers and saying that it’s christians is a real stretch? Not one bible translation translates it as messengers. And they have many educated scholars who actually know the greek language to help translate when making our modern bible versions. I’ve never heard one solid explanation of when Jesus actually sent out His ANGELS in a 70 AD coming? This explanation of this is a real stretch..So when the Angels told the disciples that Jesus was going to come back in the “same way”that they watched Him go, which was visibly in the clouds, did they mean what they said? He didn’t ascend spiritually..It was physically and they watched Him go physically and will return in the same way..So if you don’t buy into the messenger interpretation, which is a stretch of the text, then how else do you explain away the Angels gathering the elect. And when does the Actual resurrection take place? And is the no more DEATH and pain and sorrow figurative also if He came back spiritually already? I think if God wants us to take things literally He makes it very easy to understand. We try and complicate things instead of just trusting His promises that when He returns there actually will be a resurrection and no more death.. I think Paul is very clear here concerning the resurrection not only of Jesus, but of us he wasn’t a spiritual resurrection. It’s a physical resurrection like Jesus said, a spirit does not have flesh and bone like I do. Luke 24:39..we will have the same type of body when we are resurrected like Jesus has. 1 Corinthians 15:13-15 13. If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. 14 And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. 15 More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised.

I find it interesting that those who oppose Jeff on this issue issue do so on the basis of feelings and tradition, this could very well be the reason the church in America is in the state that it is in. Jeff is simply allowing scripture to interpret scripture, and allowing context to guide his exegesis, it seems that that has become unacceptable to those in the church today. It may be time for a second reformation in which we separate from the dispensational/amillennialism/ marcionism that is so prevalent in our day.

1 temple was destroyed..and christ is the new 1.yes ...but 1 will still be build..the anti christ will sit in it.. and when the book opens Gods wrath will (after all His (waiting) be pored on the earth..and we with Jesus will come down..Amen Halleluja

Curious do Calvinist Christians believe Revelation happend already or is currently happening?

Ok Wiat a second, the verse said they will """look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him"" Isreal did NOT Mourn for Christ maybe because of Him But not For HIM further other scripture Behold, (W)he is coming with the clouds, and (X)every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail Even IF you make earth into the Land ALL the tribes in the land cant be the tribes of Israel only as they were in the land of rome and even if you try this, Further in rev it shows men fro every tribe will hide from the face of him that is coming"""15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

Here is the other thing If YOur interpretation held water you would think the next generation would have also held that belief, But Here Justin Martyr Said otherwise "But if so great a power is shown to have followed and to be still following the dispensation of His suffering, how great shall that be which shall follow His glorious advent! For He shall come on the clouds as the Son of man, so Daniel foretold, and His angels shall come with Him. [Then follows Dan. 7:9-28.] Now there is a scripture about the destruction of the temple but not instead of the end time coming of Christ

At about 55:23, he mentions the book by Kenneth Gentry... In questioning Kenneth L. Gentry and his preterism, Dr. Robert L. Thomas asked in his "Theonomy and the Dating of Revelation:" "How is it that the “cloud-coming” of A.D. 70 involves no personal coming of Christ (Matt 24:30; 26:64; Rev 1:7; 2:5, 16, 25; 3:3, 11, 20; 16:15; 22:7, 12, 20), but the “cloud-coming” at the end of history does (Acts 1:11; 1 Thess 4:13 ff.)? Where did Christ distinguish between two such comings, and where did He say that He would personally appear at one and not at the other? The answer to both questions is “nowhere.” Though expensive, I would recommend Thomas's two volume book: "Revelation: An Exegetical Commentary."

After collecting all tribes... Then what...

The Greek words "parousia" and "erchomenon" seem to be interchangeable and both are defined simply as a "coming or appearance". Jesus exchanges one for the other when describing the exact same event...."parousia" (Matt 24:27) "erchomenon" (Matt 24:30). There is nothing in the greek to indicate that the disciples were asking about a different coming than what Jesus told them it would look like.

If the Preterist view is correct, where is the millennial reign of Christ on earth, and the subsequent new new earth and new Jerusalem?

How many times can you rename the same sermon?

I do not think "skin color" is our problem. I think we mistakenly use skin color for sociology/psychology issue because we all come from different walks of life.

So Isaiah, Jesus, and John all mention these heavenly signs (Sun going black, Moon to blood, stars fall).... yet because they don't fit with the preterist view that Jeff Durbin holds, they must not be physical literal signs to be viewed.....folly

Sad to see Pastor Durbin assert coming to the text with a presupposition of the text in Matt 24 and assert a preterist view is the correct view. So was the period of the destruction of the temple in 70 a time that is worse than all other days, was there many saying Here is the Christ or there is Christ as spoken in Matt 24, the very text he is using to prove a preterist view...? I love listening to Pastor Durbin as it seem he has a real heart for God, and will be honest i'm so pre *Everything* (wrath, tribulation, or what ever...) I'm simply pre-pre. Could never hold to a Presterist view, as it seems Pastor Durbin holds to and asserts as correct... But even his explanation to support a Preterist view falls far, very far short with scripture, even the passage he want to assert (Matt 24) as his best support, would say works so strongly against his points he might make...

Just read Luke and EVEN IF I gave you guys EVERYTHING ELSE< you cant even make the coming in the clouds fit your timeline In luke, Isreal is first judged and left desolate then after that there is the time of the gentiles, however long you want to make it obvious it's not a few days if you want to say a few years even if I gave that to you, ITS ONLY AFTER THAT there are signs in the sun and the mood and all that AFTER THAT is Jesus COming in the clouds,

YHWH is the Heavenly Father the Creator the Father of Yahshwah

In Matt 24, Jesus was asked what the signs would be of the destruction of the Temple, of his appearing, and of the end of the age. But Jesus did not constrain his answers to those questions. In fact, he talked about signs that would typify the entire church age, which they didn’t know about it, and signs that would precede the end of the church age, and the sign that will start the great tribulation. And Jesus talked about rewards in heaven, and he talked about the great white throne judgement. Also, Jesus didn't say that this generation would not pass away before all those things happen. The Greek grammar in the biblical manuscripts includes the Particle _an_ (which denotes the wishes of the speaker) with verbs in the Subjunctive mood (which denotes subjective possibility). In other words, Jesus actually said that he _wished_ that all these things _might_ happen in that generation, but all those things didn’t happen in that generation or even yet, which means they’re in the future.

To think people are still expecting the building of the Third Temple and sightings of heifers...... *facepalm*

The term in all the land or the inhabited Earth is repeated again in Mathew 24:14. The preaching” in all the inhabited Earth” truly was accomplished in Pauls day. Mathew 24:14 the answer is in the Bible. In some, but not all modern translations there is a miss translation of the Greek phrase oikoumené. (ee-ku-me-nee). This miss translation has sent many a religion down the wrong track. We must see it as the first century people saw it. Hence the words “all the inhabited earth”? in the Bible does not mean the “entire Earth” as we use it today. The context of the verse gives us the answer. The word for “all the inhabited Earth” in Greek is oikoumené. (ee-ku-me-nee) Strong’s Concordance explains its usage as “(properly: the land that is being inhabited, the land in a state of habitation), the inhabited world, that is, the Roman world, for all outside it was regarded as of no account.” HELPS Word-studies explains it this way: 3625 (oikouménē) literally means “the inhabited (land).” It was “originally used by the Greeks to denote the land inhabited by themselves, in contrast with barbarian countries; afterward, when the Greeks became subject to the Romans, ‘the entire Roman world;’ still later, for ‘the whole inhabited world’ “. So, given this information, we can accurately understand Jesus’ words and intention at Mathew 24:14 if we read it this way: and this good news of the kingdom will be preached throughout the known world (the Roman Empire) to all the Gentiles and then the end of Jerusalem will come.

You must remember concerning what happens after death that eccl 13:6-7 basically says after you die your soul goes back to the maker and 2cor 5:8 to be absent from this body is to be present with the lord! That is why in the Old Testament they where afraid to see the angel of the lord because to see His face ment you were dead! Now let’s look at what happens upon the return of Christ! 1 Thessalonians 4:14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

1st thessalonians 4:13-18.

The Book of Revelation is not in chronological order. The Second Coming is found in Revelation 6 with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are in the Olivet Discourse. Why are those at the end of the chapter hiding from the wrath of the Lamb unless the Lamb is present? Christ returns in Revelation 11:15-18 with the 7th trumpet, and the time of the judgment of the dead. See John 5:27-30 for Christ's description of the bodily resurrection, and judgment of all the dead. In 2 Timothy 4:1 Paul reveals that Christ judges both the living and the dead at His appearing. Christ returns in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares from Matthew chapter 13. Christ returns "as a thief" at Armageddon in Revelation 16:15-16. Christ returns in chapter 19. Christ returns when the fire comes, and with the judgment of the dead, at the end of Revelation chapter 20. Unless the Second temple is still standing, Christ was a partial-preterist in the Olivet Discourse. The first part of Luke 21:24 is about the events of 70 AD. At the end of the verse we find a reference to the times of the Gentiles. Based on Luke 21:25-28, the Second Coming of Christ occurs when the times of the Gentiles comes to fullness. Paul referred to this same time period in Romans 11:25. Paul also eludes to this time period in Acts 28:28. Luk 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Luk 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Luk 21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. Luk 21:27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Luk 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. .
