Did Jesus change any of the 713 Old Testament Laws?
Posted : 31 Jan, 2018 08:02 PM
There are some on this forum like Hark who claim that **ALL** of the 613 OT laws are still in effect today???
**BUT WHAT DOES GOD's WORD SAY??**
There are about 40 of these 613 OT laws concerning the daily animal sacrifices and offerings for sin!!
However, God's Word clearly states numerous times that Jesus made Atonement for all sins and therefore put an end to all animal sacrifices and offerings for sins and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness for sins.
**THE ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS IS THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**!!
Matthew 26:28: Jesus says, "This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many **FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**!"
Galatians 2:18-21: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me! The life I live in the body, I live by **FAITH** in the Son of God, who loved me and **GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME**!! I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!!
Hebrews 9:12: He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by **HIS OWN BLOOD**, having obtained **ETERNAL REDEMPTION**!
Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood **THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS**.... But now He has appeared **ONCE FOR ALL** at the end of the ages to do away with sin **BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF**!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, and Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people, and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!!
Ephesians 2:13: But now in Christ Jesus you who were once were far away have been brought near **THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST**!!
Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first **TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND**. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!!
Romans 3:21-25: But now a righteousness from God, **APART FROM THE LAW**, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes **THROUGH FAITH** in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by **HIS GRACE** through the **REDEMPTION** that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a **SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT**, **THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD**!!
Colossians 1:15-20: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the **HEAD OF HIS BODY, THE CHURCH**; He is the beginning and the firstborn from the dead, so that is **EVERYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE THE SUPREMACY**. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things **ON EARTH** or things in heaven, by making peace **THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, shed on the cross!!
Colossians 2:13-15: When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you **ALIVE WITH CHRIST**. He forgave us **ALL OUR SINS**, having canceled the written code, with its regulation, that was against us and that stood opposed to us, He took it away, **NAIILNG IT TO THE CROSS**!!.
Ephesians 1:3-8; 11: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with **EVERY** spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and **BLAMELESS** in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will--to the praise of His **GLORIOUS GRACE**, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have **REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD**, **THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS**, in accordance the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding!!
I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were **REDEEMED** from the empty way of life handed down to you by your forefathers, but with the **PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**, Lamb without blemish or defect!!
I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself **BORE OUR SINS** in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, by **HIS WOUNDS** we are healed{See Isaiah 53:5,6}!! For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!!
I Peter 3:18 For Christ **DIED FOR SINS ONCE FOR LL**, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God!!
I John 2:1-5: My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have One who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the **ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS**, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world!! We know that we have come to know Him if we keep His {Jesus} commands. Whoever says, "I know Him," but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys His word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in Him!!
I John 4:10-12: This is **LOVE**, not that we loved God, but that He **LOVED** us and sent His Son as an **ATONING SACRIFICE** for our sins. Dear friends, since God so **LOVED** us, we also ought to **LOVE** one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we **LOVE** one another, God **LIVES IN US** and His **LOVE** is made complete in us.
Revelation 1:4,5: Grace and peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness... To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins **BY HIS BLOOD**!!
NOTE: Jesus Christ our Savior is called the **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation.
Revelation 5:6,9: Then I saw a **LAMB**, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne...You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because You were slain , and **WITH YOUR BLOOD** You purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation!!
Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB** and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!!
Revelation 7:14: These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have was their robes and made them white in the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB**!!
Isaiah 53:5,6: But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed! We all, like sheep, have gone astray , each of us has turned to his own way, and **THE LORD HAS LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US ALL**!!
Romans 5:6-10: You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless. Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates His love for us in this: While we were still sinners **CHRIST DIED FOR US**. Since we are now justified **BY HIS BLOOD**, how much more will we be saved from God's wrath through Him! When we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to Him **THROUGH THE DEATH OF HIS SON**!!

**WILL THE **DAY OF THE LORD**, THE **LAST DAY** AND THE **7TH AND LAST TRUMPET**TAKE PLACE ON THE SAME DAY**??
**WILL THE DESTRUCTION OF THE LOST IN I THESS 5:2,3 OCCUR ON THE SAME **DAY OF THE LORD** MENTIONED IN I THESS 4:15-18**??
I Thessalonians 4:15-18; 5:1-4: According to the Lord's word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord will certainly not precede those who have fallen **ASLEEP**. For the Lord will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the {**7TH & LAST**} TRUMPET call of God, and the **DEAD IN CHRIST** will rise first. After that we who are still alive and are left will be caught up the together with them {Or gathered as per Matt 24:31} in the air so we will be with the Lord forever! About times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the **DAY OF THE LORD** {In I Thess 4:15-18 ABOVE**} will come like a **THIEF IN THE NIGHT**{To unbelievers!!} While people are saying "Peace and safety," **DESTRUCTION** will come on them suddenly {**DESTRUCTION OF THE LOST ON THE **SAME** DAY AS THE **DAY OF LORD** ABOVE!!} and they will not escape. But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this {**LAST**} **DAY** should surprise you like a thief. For **YOU** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} are all children of light and children of the {**LAST **} **DAY**!
Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief {To unbelievers}, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!"
For once the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins all of God's saints will know the exact day that Jesus will come on the **LAST DAY**!! And once the **Stars start falling** {Matt 24:29} the saints will know the exact hour of the 2nd Coming of Jesus as per Luke 21:28: Jesus says, "When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up you heads, because your redemption is drawing near!!"
Luke 17:28-30: Jesus says, "It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating, drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven. It will be just like this on the **DAY THE SON OF MAN IS **REVEALED**!
2 Peter 3:10-13: But the **DAY OF THE LORD** {The same **DAY OF THE LORD** IN I THESS 4:15-18!} will come like a thief {To unbelievers}. The heavens will disappear swith a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare! Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to love holy and godly lives as you look forward to the **DAY OF GOD**. That **DAY** will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with His promise **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} are looking forward to a New Heaven and a New Earth, the Home of Righteousness! {See Rev 21:1-5}
Isaiah 13:6-10: The **DAY OF THE LORD** {**The same **DAY OF THE LORD** mentioned on I Thess 4:15-18!} is near; it will come like **DESTRUCTION** from the Almighty. Because of this all hands will go limp, every {Unsaved} heart will melt with fear. Terror will seize them, pain and anguish will grip them. They will look aghast at each other, their faces aflame. See the **DAY OF THE LORD** is coming--a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger--to make the land desolate and destroy the sinners within it {See Rev 6:15-17}. The stars in heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light!
Acts 2:19,20: God says... "I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the the great and glorious **DAY OF THE LORD** {The same **DAY OF THE LORD** mentioned in I Thess 4:15-18!}!"
Matthew 24:29-31: Immediately after the distress of those {1260} days the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light and the **STARS WILL FALL** from the sky! {Luke 21:28 adds "When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near!"} Then will ***APPEAR*** the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. and then all the {Unsaved} peoples of the earth will mourn when the see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud {7th & Last} trumpet call, and the will gather **HIS ELECT** from the 4 winds, from one end of heavens to the other!" {Mark 13:27 adds "From the ends of the earth!"}
Hebrews 10:24,25: Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together as some are in the habit of doing, but encouaging one another--and all the more as you {**CHURCH SAINTS**} see the **DAY APPROACHING**!
Pre-Tribbers also claim that all of the Church saints will be raptured **BEFORE** the **MAN OF LAWLESSNESS IS REVEALED**??
**BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**??
2 Thessalonians 1:1; 2:1-3, 8: To the **CHURCH** of the Thessalonians... Concerning the **COMING*** of our Lord Jesus and **OUR** {CHURCH SAINTS} being gathered to Him.... Don't let anyone {Like Pre-Tribbers} deceive you in any way, for **THAT DAY WILL NOT COME** **UNTIL THE MAN OF LAWLESSNESS IS REVEALED**!... The lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of His mouth and destroy by the splendor **OF HIS COMING**!! {On the **LAST DAY** of the Great Tribulation**}
THESE INSPIRED WORDS OF GOD ABSOLUTELY CONTRADICTS THE PRE-TRIB FALSE CLAIMS THAT THE CHURCH SAINTS WILL BE RAPTURED **BEFORE** THE COMING OF 666!!
I Corinthians 1:7,8: You do not lack any spiritual gift as **YOU** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be **REVEALED**. He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the **DAY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST**!!
Pre-Tibbers also claim that the **CHURCH SAINTS** and the Lost will **NOT** be resurrected on the same **LAST DAY** of the Great Tribulation??
**WILL THE CHURCH SAINTS AND THE LOST BE RESURRECTED ON THE SAME **LAST DAY** WHICH IS ALSO THE **DAY OF THE LORD**
**WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**??
John 12:48: Jesus says, "There is a Judge for the one who rejects Me and does not accept My words, that very word which I spoke will condemn him on the **LAST DAY**!" {See Matthew 25:31-46; Daniel 12:1,2 and John 5:28}
John 6:40: Jesus says, ""For My Father's will is that **EVERYONE** who looks to the Son and believes in Him {**CHURCH SAINTS**} shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the {**SAME**} **LAST DAY**!"
**WILL THE **7TH AND LAST TRUMP** SOUND ON THE **DAY OF THE LORD** WHICH IS ALSO THE **LAST DAY**??
**THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURES ARE RELATED TO THE **7TH AND LAST TRUMP** MENTIONED IN I CORINTHIANS 15:51**!
The only 2 resurrections mentioned in Revelation are **POST-TRIB** and are found in Revelation 14:14-16 and Revelation 11:15-18 when the **7TH AND LAST ANGEL** will sound the **7TH AND LAST TRUMP**!!
Revelation 8:2: I saw the 7 angels who **STAND BEFORE GOD** and **7 TRUMPETS** were given to them.
**NOTE**: The first 6 trumpets will be sounded **DURING** and not **BEFORE** the Great Tribulation in Revelation 8:7 to Revelation 9:21!!!
And then on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation just before the 2nd Coming of Jesus for **HIS CHURCH SAINTS** we read in:
Revelation 11:15,18: The 7th {*AND LAST} angel sounded his {**LAST**} **TRUMPET**, and there were loud voices in heaven which said: "The Kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Messiah, and He will reign for ever and ever... The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name (**CHURCH SAINTS**}, both small and great and for destroying those who destroy the earth!"
I Corinthians 15:50-52: I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. Listen, I tell you a **MYSTERY** {See Rev 10:7 above}, we will not all sleep, but we **ALL** will be changed--in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, **AT THE LAST TRUMPET**. For the {7th & Last} **TRUMPET** will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} will be changed!!
Now the pre-tribbers make the ridiculous claim that this {**7TH**AND} **LAST TRUMP** in I Corinthians 15:51; when all the **CHURCH SAINTS** receive their new heavenly bodies; will take place at a pre-trib rapture just **BEFORE** the Great Tribulation and the coming of 666 even though the first 6 trumpets take place **DURING** the Great Tribulation???
Titus 2:13: **WE**{**CHURCH SAINTS**} wait for the **BLESSED HOPE**--the **GLORIOUS APPEARING** {Not Secret concealed rapture} of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ!!

Revelation 6:13-17: I watched as He {Jesus} opened the 6th seal. There was a great eartquake. The sub turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig treewhen shaken by a strong wind. The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains The called to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the mouth of the Lamb {Jesus}! For the **GREAT DAY** of their wrath has come and who can withstand it?" {While the saints lift up their heads since they know that the 2nd Coming of Jesus is very near as per Luke 21:28 below!}
Acts 2:19,20: God says... "I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.

**THERE WILL BE 2 COMINGS OF JESUS ON THE SAME LAST DAY OF THE LORD. THE FIRST WILL BE **FOR** HIS SAINTS AND THE SECOND COMING RIGHT AFTER THE MARRIAGE FEAST OF THE LAMB; **WITH** HIS SAINTS**!!
Revelation 19:7,8,11,14,16,19-21: Hallelujah! For our lord God almighty reignsLet us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear!... I saw heaven standing openand there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True... The armies of heaven were following Him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean {See Rev 19:8 above}... On His robe and on His thigh he has the name written: **KING** of kings and **LORD** of lords...Then I saw the beast {666} and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make waragainst the Rider of the horse and His army. But the beast was captured and with him the False Prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deludedwho had received the mark of the Beast and worshiped his image, The Two of them were thrown aiveinto thee fiery lake of burning sulfur... And the Devil who deceived them, will be thrown into the lake of burniing sulfur, where the Beast and the False Prophet will be thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever!
Revelation 17:14: They will make war against tbe **LAMB** will trimph over them because His is **LORD** of lords and **KING** of kings--and with Him will be His **CALLED**, **CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers!
Hebrews 10:24,25: Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another--and all the more as **YOU** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} see the **DAY {*OF THE LORD*} APPROACHING**! {On the **LAST DAY** of the 1260-day Great Tribulation!}

**WILL THE **7TH AND LAST TRUMP** SOUND ON THE **DAY OF THE LORD** WHICH IS ALSO THE **LAST DAY**??
**THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURES ARE RELATED TO THE **7TH AND LAST TRUMP** MENTIONED IN I CORINTHIANS 15:51**!

And then on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation just before the 2nd Coming of Jesus for **HIS CHURCH SAINTS** we read in:
Revelation 11:15,18: The 7th {*AND LAST} angel sounded his {**LAST**} **TRUMPET**, and there were loud voices in heaven which said: "The Kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Messiah, and He will reign for ever and ever... The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your saints and those who reverence your name (**CHURCH SAINTS**}, both small and great and for destroying those who destroy the earth!"
I Corinthians 15:50-52: I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. Listen, I tell you a **MYSTERY** {See Rev 10:7 above}, we will not all sleep, but we **ALL** will be changed--in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, **AT THE LAST TRUMPET**. For the {7th & Last} **TRUMPET** will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} will be changed!!
Now the pre-tribbers make the ridiculous claim that this {**7TH**AND} **LAST TRUMP** in I Corinthians 15:51; when all the **CHURCH SAINTS** receive their new heavenly bodies; will take place at a pre-trib rapture just **BEFORE** the Great Tribulation and the coming of 666 even though the first 6 trumpets take place **DURING** the Great Tribulation???
**IS THE PRE-TRIB TRANSLATION OF THE GREEK WORD **HARPAZO** IN REVELATION 4:17 AS **RAPTURE** AN **EVIL SIN**??
According to Webster's dictionary the **RAPTURE** means "An expression or manifestation of **ECSTASY** or **PASSION**" The pre-tribbers claim that the Greek word **HARPAZO** in I Thessalonians 4:17 can be translated **RAPTURE** while the NIV, RSV and KJV versions translate **HARPAZO** to be **CAUGHT UP** and the Todays English version translates it to be **GATHERED UP**!
However, the word **ECSTASY** is never mention in God's Word and means a "State of being beyond reason and self control, swoon or trance"! The words **PASSION**, passions and passionate are mentioned 7 times in God's Word and **EACH TIME** it is an **EVIL SIN** as per Romans 7:5, Galatians 5:24, I Corinthians 7:9, I Thessalonians 4:5, Titus 2:12, Titus 3:3 and Hosea 7:6.
I Thessalonians 4:16,17: For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a **LOUD COMMAND**, with the voice of the Archangel and with the {7TH & LAST}**TRUMPET CALL OF GOD**, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that we who are still alive and are left will be **CAUGHT UP** {*RAPTURED*??} together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air!
And so the pre-trib translation of the Greek word Harpazo as **RAPTURE** which means "An expression or manifestation of **ECSTASY** or **PASSION**", is an **EVIL SIN**!! And when all of God's saints are **CAUGHT UP** to heaven and receive their eternal heavenly bodies they will no longer sin and will have **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the **LAST DAY** of the 70 7's which is also the **LAST DAY** of the 42-month Great Tribulation!!
Daniel 9:24: 70 7's {Or 490 years} are decreed {From the decree of Cyrus} to Anoint the Most Holy {After 69 7's or 483 years}, To Atone for Wickedness {After 69 1/2 7's or 486 1/2 years} to finish transgession, put and end to sin and to bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS** on the **LAST DAY** of the 70 7's or 490 years which is also the **LAST DAY** of the 42- month Great Tribulation!
Titus 2:13: **WE**{**CHURCH SAINTS**} wait for the **BLESSED HOPE**--the **GLORIOUS APPEARING** {Not Secret concealed sinful rapture} of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ!!
Did Jesus change any of the 713 Old Testament Laws?

What Is the Meaning of Matthew 10:22,23?
�Would you please explain Matthew 10:22.23? �When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.��
There are a number of ways by which the meaning of a passage might be determined.
The Preterists claim that this refers to a Symbolic coming of Jesus in AD 70 and that everything in the Olivet prophecies and in Revelation were completed in AD 70 which is completely ridiculous.
The most compelling position is that argued by numerous respectable scholars (e.g., J.W. McGarvey, Albert Barnes, F.F. Bruce, D.A. Carson, R.C.H. Lenski, Theodor Zahn, W.W. How, J. Barton Payne, etc.), namely that the �coming� event of Matthew 10:22,23 is the Roman Conquering Jerusalem and destroying the Temple, which occurred in 37 years later in A.D. 70. The following factors lend their weight to this view.
First, divine punishments are commonly referred to in the Bible as a �coming.�
(1) When Jehovah providentially sent the Babylonians to ravage the southern kingdom of Judah, Isaiah depicted the event as an invasion of the Lord himself (Isa. 13:2-5).
(2) Christ warned the erring churches of Ephesus and Pergamum that if they did not mend their rebellious ways, he would �come� and bring punishment upon them (Rev. 2:5, 16).
(3) God warned the Jews that he would send �his armies� to destroy those who murdered his Son, and cause their city to be burned (Mt. 22:7); this was to be accomplished by the Roman invasion. And it was represented as a �coming� of the Son of man in power and great glory (Mt. 24:30, 34; cf. Luke: 21:27, 32).
Second, this event fits the �urgency� factor precisely. When the disciples were rejected by the Jews as they proclaimed the gospel, they were to flee from city to city in view of the coming destruction upon this dreadfully hateful nation. Even at that, they would not reach every city in Israel before the Roman �judgment� descended.
Third, there is the parallel evidence supporting this view. When one compares material from Matthew 10:22,23 with that found in Luke 21:20-24, it becomes apparent that, while the occasions are different, the same general theme is strikingly similar; there are unmistakably common elements in the Savior�s two warnings.
Matthew 10:22,23: Jesus says, When you are persecuted in one place **FLEE TO ANOTHER**{See Luke 21:21}. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes."
Now the Olivet prophecies of Jesus are included in Matthew 24 and Matthew 25:31-46, Mark 13 and Luke 21, and everything in these prophecies take place just before the Great Tribulation, during the 1280-day Great Tribulation, the 2nd Coming of Jesus on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation and the Judgment on the last Day of the Tribulation in Matthew 25:31-46 **EXCEPT LUKE 21:20-24** which tells of the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in AD 70 which was just 37 years after the Olivet Prophecies.
Matthew 24:1-3: Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to Him to call attention to its buildings. Jesus said, " Do you see all these things. Truly I tell you, not one stone will be left on another; every one will be thrown down!!" As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, When this will happen {Answered only in Luke 21:20-24} and what will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age??" {Answered in the rest of the Olivet Prophecies}
Luke 21:20-24: When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies {In AD 70}, you will know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea **FLEE TO THE MOUNTAINS** {Compare with Matthew 10:22 above}, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. For this is the time of fulfillment of all that has been written {In Daniel 9:26}. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers. There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. {The Jews finally took control of West Jerusalem on May 14th, 1948 and then took control of East Jerusalem on June 7th, 1967, thus fulfilling this prophecy}
