Standing here on top of the Mount of olive, you get a beautiful view of the old city of Jerusalem down below the Mount of olive is really a range of Hills east of Jerusalem. That is separated from the temple Mount by the kids in valley. It is rarely mentioned in the old Testament, but it's connection with the closing scenes of Jesus. Life is what gives it significance. Jesus rode over here on his triumphant entry into Jerusalem and stopped and wet as he looked down on the city old Jerusalem, how often I would've gathered you as a hen, gathers her chickens, but you would not. And then those fateful words, see your house is left unto you, DEC As Jesus uttered words that indicated that temple would be destroyed. The disciples came to him in Matthew chapter 24, startled. They asked the question, tell us, when will these things be? And what is the sign of your coming and of the end of the world in the minds of the disciples and event? So cataclysmic as a destruction of Jerusalem could not happen on its own without the end of the world happening as well. Jesus in his mercy described the signs of both events and blended them together as they could not count on us, that the two events would be separated by 2000 years. And so signs indicated both events were then given to the disciples. The first sign given was that false Christ would arise and deceive many. And Jesus warned them to take heed prior to the destruction of Jerusalem. There were many false messiahs who arose and prior to the end of the world, this sign will be prevalent. Again, Jesus went on to say that there will be wars and rumors of wars that nation would rise against nation, and there'll be famine, pestilence, and earthquakes in diverse places. Today, we see all of the above taking place as we live in a world riddled with war, and also we see earthquakes taking place with increased frequency and also in unusual places, Perhaps more fearful is when Jesus then said that many will betray one another throughout history. We have seen that persecution brings out the desire and humanity for self-preservation and Christians are not immune from this. Jesus then went on to describe the signs that would happen here in Jerusalem prior to its destruction in a D 70. And those who are watching were able to avoid the terrible destruction. When it came at the hands of the Roman armies, similar council is given prior to the return of Jesus. And those of us who are watching need not be fearful Today. We are seeing these events all around us, the unrest in the world, all pointing to Jesus return. We are seeing wars and rumors of wars. We are seeing economic crashes, famines, and earthquakes in diverse places as it was in the days of Noah. So shall it be in the days when the son of man comes, Jesus return is close and his council to the disciples rings true to us today. Take heed that no one deceive you enjoy until the end watch and pray, but perhaps it's verse 14 of chapter 24, that is more important. When this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness, then shall the end come, we are living close to Jesus' return. And we are instructed to share this message with the world around us. May we be mindful of the events that are taking place? May we awake from spiritual sleep? And may we lovingly share this message with the world around us, that people may be saved.
