Last week we talked about the destruction of Jerusalem.
I think the account in Mark states the questions more succinctly.
So, today we will be talking about the end of the age.
When all things will be fulfilled.
There are a couple of schools of thought about how to deal with questions like these.
One is called dispensations, or divisions of time, of how God deals with the church and/or people.
The other is called covenantalism.
Dispensationalism has a distinction between the Church and the Jews.
It views scripture through divisions of time.
According to dispensationalism, there are things that have not yet been fulfilled in regards to the Jews.
Covenant theology views God through various covenants with his people.
The church is viewed as having been grafted into his people.
There are truths in both of these.
I’m not going to take a stand on either one.
There’s an old Indian proverb that tells of blind men trying to figure out what an elephant is.
Has anyone heard of it?
The truth is that we can’t see perfectly
We all need glasses.
Take Christian and I.
He has almost perfect vision, but he is partially color blind.
I see colors perfectly, but my eyes don’t focus right.
So we see things differently.
Some people have theorized that God made some of these things obscure so that we would spread more.
In any case, what’s important is that Jesus is coming again.
I’m not sure about the details, but he’s coming.
Look for the Signs
What are the signs?
Signs in the Sun, Moon, and stars
Distress of nations
Seas and waves
Then the return of Jesus
Let’s talk about those a bit.
There are 2 other parallel passages that describe these events: Mark 13 & Matthew 24 .
The Matthew account visualizes it like a vulture circling dead bodies.
We saw some the other day circling above our house and we were worried that one of the dogs had died.
Some of this is apocalyptic in nature, but I don’t think we can miss the 2nd coming.
I don’t understand what will happen in sun stars and moon, but God uses them all the time to convey information.
Think about it for a second.
I’m not talking about astrology, but what is a day?
What is a year?
How about a week or a month?
We look past that, but in this account, we see Jesus using the seasons as an illustration.
He uses a fig tree as a picture of those days.
When you see a tree budding, you know that spring is upon us.
Jesus then uses the days of Noah as an illustration of what is to come.
(In Matthew)
I think this is part of what he is talking about in the Distress of nations.
Let’s read Matthew 24:36-44
There’s a lot that could be said about this passage, but one thing for us to understand is how bad it will be.
I don’t want to get into the timing of this, but I do want to say that the days of Noah were more horrific than we can imagine.
I know he’s using it as an illustration, but if the world gets that bad, what is God going to do with them.
The point is that when things start getting bad, we need to be looking for his Return.
Look for the Savior
Let’s look back at our text: Luke 21:27-28
and Luke 21:34-36
Look For The Savior
All of these signs will culminate in the return of Jesus
I want you to think about this for a minute - One day we will be with Jesus.
I don’t know how it will all happen, but I know that one day I will see my redeemer with my own eyes.
One day there will be a judgment and if you believe in Jesus, he will stand up and say “I died for you.”
We won’t be judged for what we did wrong, but what we did right.
Then we will be with him forever more!
Look for the Saints
So, what do we do then?
All of those who have gone on before will be with us.
In that last passage it says that the dead in Christ will rise first.
Can you imagine?
We will see Jesus and then our loved ones.
If Jesus comes today, I will see my grandparents.
I will see Billy.
We’ll see Gerald and Sue.
And we will always be with them and Jesus.
If we truly believe,
Then Heaven we’ll receive.
