    Matt.24:1-35 refers to destrustion of Jerusalem, as "this generation shall not pass till these things have been done", then the nex5 verses states "But"

    , in contrast to all before there are no signs, but you just have to be ready.. the "these things" in verse 1-34 are signs of coming Jerusalem destruction, NOT end of world,

    If "end of world" as many teach, then how will fkeeing to mountains save you?

    Why hope it is not in the winter?

    If on housetop, dont go back into house for your possessions?

    Verse 36 is the KEY... "BUT...

    Hi Jack,

    In Matthew 24 Jesus describes events before, during and after the sixth trumpet, 42 month great tribulation. The verses are mystical, interwoven magic. People confuse, or conflate the sixth and seventh trumpets, but there are differences.

    ( Matthew 24:36) states that no man knows the time of Jesus Christ's triumphant "seventh trumpet" return, but the Father.

    Only God knows when the seventh trumpet will sound on Mt Olive, and the mystery of God will be over.

    God reveals the season and time of day of the sixth trumpet Mystery Babylon attack revealing the man of sin:

    ( Jeremiah 15:8-9) The spoiler at "noonday", when the sun is high in the sky; 3pm.

    11pm ( Luke 21:20-24)



    ( Luke 17:34-37) They're not being resurrected, they're dead.

    Recognize these are perilous times. America balances on the tail end of bully days.

    Dear Jack, I believe you are right in stating that Matt 24 is about the destruction of Jerusalem. Not the end of the world. It is further revelation Christ was giving about Daniel's revelation concerning the abomination that makes desolate, the tribulation and later revealed to John concerning the judgment of Israel and the setting up of God's Kingdom on earth. I also believe that the key to understanding what is meant about "this generation" Matt 24:34 can be found in Psalm 22 a prophetic psalm of Christ and the "little flock" that will rule with Christ in the Kingdom on earth. See Ps. 22:30 I would love to hear from you.
