Gospel of Matthew - Matthew 24:4-8 - Jesus Teaches His Disciples the Conditions of The Beginning of Sorrows - Prog 91

In Matthew 24 verses 4-8 Jesus is talking to His disciples. They wanted to know when the end of the age would come.

Jesus then begins to tell them of what to beware of - false christs and possible wars between nations and kingdoms.

But He hastens to add that these things were not the end but merely the beginning -- the beginning of birth pangs.

Dr. Mitchell reviews the context of Jesus’ explanation to His disciples.

He ties these verses in Matthew together with verses found in the book of Daniel. In Daniel God reveals His purposes for the nation of Israel.

On the timeline of history, Israel comes first. Jesus speaks of the nation of Israel.

Jesus is not here speaking of the church, which comes in to being later in time.
