Align with the 3 endtime purposes of God

Matthew 24:1–2 TPT

1 As Jesus was leaving the temple courts, his disciples came to him and pointed out the beautiful aspects of the architecture of the temple structures. 2 And Jesus turned to them and said, “Take a good look at all these things, for I’m telling you, there will not be one stone left upon another. It will all be leveled!”

This prophecy of Jesus was fulfilled by the Roman prince Titus, who, in the Roman war of AD 67–70, destroyed the temple. In about AD 135 the emperor Hadrian completely destroyed the city of Jerusalem and built a new city on its foundations and named it Aelia Capitolina.

Matthew 24:3 NKJV

3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

Matthew 24:3 TPT

3 Later, when they arrived at the Mount of Olives, his disciples came privately to where he was sitting and said, “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what supernatural sign should we expect to signal your coming and the completion of this age?”

As he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, John and Andrew asked him secretly: When will all these things be and what will be the sign when all these matters will take place, or when will they begin and when will be the end of the world and your corning? (Hebrew Gospel of Matthew)

When will they begin?

Matthew 24:4–5 TPT

4 Jesus answered, “At that time deception will run rampant. So beware that you are not fooled! 5 For many will appear on the scene claiming my authority or saying about themselves, ‘I am God’s Anointed,’ and they will lead many astray.

What should we do?

Matthew 24:42–44 NKJV

42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

42 Then Jesus said to his disciples: Therefore watch with me because you do not know at what hour your lord is coming.

43 This you know, if one knew at what hour the thief was coming, he would watch and not allow him (to dig) into his house.

44 So you should be prepared, because you do not know at what hour the Son of Man is going to come. (Hebrew Gospel of Matthew)

Matthew 24:42–44 TPT

42 This is why you must stay alert: because no one knows the day your Lord will come. 43 “But realize this: If a homeowner had known what time of night the burglar would come to rob his house, he would have been alert and ready, and not let his house be robbed. 44 So always be ready, alert, and prepared, because at an hour when you’re not expecting him, the Son of Man will come.”

Purpose 1: Good news of the Kingdom must be preached across the World

Matthew 24:14 TPT

14 “Yet through it all, this joyful assurance of the realm of heaven’s kingdom will be proclaimed all over the world, providing every nation with a demonstration of the reality of God. And after this the end of this age will arrive.”

And this gospel, that is, evungili, will be preached in all the earth for a witness concerning me to all the nations and then the end will come. (Hebrew Gospel of Matthew)

Although it is possible to translate this “the end of the world,” the Hebraic mind-set of the end of days is a transition into a new age of the Messiah’s coming when all things will be restored.

EVUNGILI

Philippians 1:17-18

The “gospel of Christ” concerns “faith”, “salvation” and believing “in Him”!

Philippians 1:27-29

“Faith in Messiah Yeshua” is what “you heard before in the true message—the Good News”:

Colossians 1:21-23

“The Good News of our Master Yeshua the Messiah” demands obedience, not just understanding a message.

2 Thessalonians 1:8 He’ll execute vengeance with burning fire on those who don’t pay attention to YHVH, and refuse to heed the Good News of our Master Yeshua Messiah. (Gabriel Version)

2 Thessalonians 1:8 NKJV

8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Thessalonians 2:13-14

The “magnificent Good News” concerns the “sound doctrine” of “the whole Bible”.

Once again, eternal Life and “belief” and “truth” pertain to the “Good News”.

Purpose 2: Training and raising up the body of Christ to be warrior bride

Prepare Yourself

Revelation 19:6–7 NKJV

6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns! 7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”

Titus 1:1 TPT

1 From Paul, God’s willing slave and an apostle of Jesus, the Anointed One, to Titus. I’m writing you to further the faith of God’s chosen ones and lead them to the full knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness,

Purpose 3: Building of Israel

Psalm 102:16 NKJV

16 For the Lord shall build up Zion; He shall appear in His glory.

16 for the Lord will rebuild Zion; he will appear in his glory. (CSB)

Isaiah 11:11–12 NKJV

11 It shall come to pass in that day That the Lord shall set His hand again the second time To recover the remnant of His people who are left, From Assyria and Egypt, From Pathros and Cush, From Elam and Shinar, From Hamath and the islands of the sea. 12 He will set up a banner for the nations, And will assemble the outcasts of Israel, And gather together the dispersed of Judah From the four corners of the earth.

11 At that time the Lord will again reach out and take his people who are left in countries like Assyria, North Egypt, South Egypt, Ethiopia, Elam, Babylonia, Hamath, and other faraway countries around the world. 12 He will gather the people of Israel and Judah who were forced to leave their country. They were scattered to all the faraway places on earth. But he will raise the flag as a sign for the other nations, and he will gather his people together again. (Easy to Read Version)

Then the nations will fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth your glory, (CSB)
