“This Generation Will Not Pass Away…”

Blessings folk!

Jesus now gives a parable style insight as to the timing of His return.

Matthew 24:32-35
32 “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.
33 So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates.
34 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

What is Jesus saying?

He is telling that we will know the season when these things will occur.
True, as He will say in the next verse, only Father knows the timing, but we can know the season.

What is “the season”?
When we see all these things.

All the false christs.
All the wars.
All the rumors of wars.
All the famines.
All the earthquakes.
All the tribulation.
All the turmoil in the sea.
All the darkness when the sun, moon and stars are blackened.

When these occur, then that generation will not pass away until all is complete.
He will be near.
He will be at the very gates.
Gates?

Things will happen rapidly.

The Word of the Lord will not fail nor pass away.

Be ready.
