Luke
20:39 ¶ Then certain of the scribes
answering said, Master, thou hast well said. 40
And after that they durst not ask him any question at all.
41 And he said unto them, How say they
that Christ is David’s son? 42 And David
himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my
right hand, 43 Till I make thine enemies
thy footstool. 44 David therefore
calleth him Lord, how is he then his son? 45
Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,
46 Beware of the scribes, which desire
to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats
in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; 47 Which devour widows’ houses, and for a shew
make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
Psalm
110:1 ¶ « A Psalm of David. »
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine
enemies thy footstool.
LORD, all uppercase letters, from the Hebrew, is from Jehovah, one
of the over 6500 times God’s name is translated from Jehovah, which means,
according to Strong’s dictionary, ‘The Existing One,’ or, as God Himself put it
in Exodus 3:14, I AM THAT I AM. The
second Lord in Psalm 110 is from Adonai.
From Greek as here in Luke both are from Kurios. What is the point
Jesus’ is making? The Messiah was understood to be the Son of David, a
descendant of the king.
Luke
18:38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
David wrote that Jehovah God said to his Lord, the Messiah, to sit
at His right hand until Jehovah God made Christ’s enemies His footstool. How
can the Messiah be called the Son of David if he is David’s Lord? Christ, as
God, was David’s Lord, his ruler, benefactor, and owner, and yet, as a man, was
his descendant or son. Here, we have the two natures of Jesus Christ, fully man
and fully God, expressed in one passage.
Revelation
22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to
testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring
of David, and the bright and
morning star.
He was teaching in the temple, was confronted by the religious
elite, suffered spies to try to trip Him up with the Romans, faced the
Sadducees and was not confused by their attempt to trip Him up on religion and
the resurrection they did not believe in, and now He warns the people to beware
of these imposters who love the preeminence and have no problem taking all that
a widow has to sustain herself in the guise of giving to God.
They are not so different than many Christian ministers, parading
their Doctor of Theology or Divinity as Dr. Whosit, pastor of the First Baptist
Church of Whoville, having graduated from the seminary of Doubt and Uncertainty,
loving the worship of their congregation. Also, I know of widows who gave
thousands and thousands of dollars to Jim and Tammy Baker and other TV
preachers sincerely wanting to make themselves useful in furthering the Lord’s
work but being fleeced the whole time by con artists.
I have heard many long prayers that these leaders make that are
truly just preaching to the congregation rather than talking to God. Jesus
warned about long-winded prayers, in our case, using phrases like, “Father God,”
at the beginning and end of every sentence or some such similar phrase while a
preacher begins or continues his usually politically minded sermon.
Matthew
6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain
repetitions, as the heathen do:
for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
Those of us who teach and preach bear a great responsibility to do
our best not to deceive or manipulate or get puffed up and believe we are
something we are not.
So many times Jesus has declared His Messiahship, His identity, in
different ways. The religious leadership must have been very uncomfortable with
Him moving about freely and teaching, as is evident by several passages.
Luke,
chapter 21
Luke 21:1
¶ And he looked up, and saw the rich men
casting their gifts into the treasury. 2
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto
you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: 4 For all these have of their abundance cast in
unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living
that she had.
The Saviour here makes a distinct difference between those
generous men of wealth who give freely to religious impulse, giving which in no
way threatens their day-to-day survival and a widow, perhaps one of those
mentioned in the last passage fleeced by the religious elite, who gave all she
had to support the religious institutions of her nation.
Moses had commanded, and you should read this passage and the
context;
Exodus
30:13 This they shall give, every one
that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of
the sanctuary: (a shekel is
twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall
be the offering of the LORD. 14
Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years
old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD. 15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor
shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering unto the LORD, to make an atonement for
your souls.
King David collected for the future temple;
1Chronicles
29:9 Then the people rejoiced, for that
they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to
the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
Again, in the days of King Joash;
2Chronicles
24:6 And the king called for Jehoiada
the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to
bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses
the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle
of witness? 7 For the sons of Athaliah,
that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the dedicated
things of the house of the LORD did they bestow upon Baalim. 8 And at the king’s commandment they made a
chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD. 9 And they made a proclamation through Judah
and Jerusalem, to bring in to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness. 10 And all the princes and all the people
rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
This is giving to build, maintain, and support a very physical
structure, the center of Jewish religion. By contrast Christian giving was to
help other Christians, particularly church bodies that were suffering.
1Corinthians
16:1 ¶ Now concerning the collection for
the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
But, regardless of the reason for giving, God has blessed our
generosity to the furtherance of the gospel and care for the saints and even
all men in general so that your generosity to those in need whatever their
spiritual state is mentioned in the following.
2Corinthians
9:1 ¶ For as touching the ministering to
the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you: 2 For I know the forwardness of your mind, for
which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago;
and your zeal hath provoked very many. 3
Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain
in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready: 4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me,
and find you
unprepared,
we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.
5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort
the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your
bounty, whereof ye had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.
6 ¶
But this I say, He which
soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully
shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man
according as he purposeth in his heart, so
let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful
giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always
having all sufficiency in all things,
may abound to every good work: 9 (As it
is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his
righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now
he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed
sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 Being enriched in every thing to all
bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God. 12 For the administration of this service not
only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many
thanksgivings unto God; 13 Whiles by the
experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection
unto the gospel of Christ, and for your
liberal distribution unto them, and unto
all men; 14 And by their prayer for you, which long after
you for the exceeding grace of God in you. 15
Thanks be unto God for
his unspeakable gift.
If you think that Christians are only justified in giving to the
faithful in need please note that early Christian writers like Eusebius wrote
of Christian benevolence to the unsaved and even a pagan emperor like Julian
the Apostate noted that this was one reason for the advancement of Christianity
in the Roman Empire.
As an example a fourth century plague in the city of Caesarea caused
a sick and weakened population to flee. Only the Christians stayed behind to
minister to the dead in burial and to the dying, distributing bread to the
starving. Julian wrote to a pagan priest and cited how the Christians extended
charity to the poor and helped the suffering suggesting that if there was to be
a revival of paganism, which he desired, the pagan priests of the various gods
must do the same.
In this passage, penury
is poverty and the poor widow who gave her two
mites, a miniscule amount of money, gave all she had and was honored by
Christ. However, His point is in the contrast between the rich men and the
widow’s giving, not in a command for suffering people to give all they have
that would go to their own sustenance.
The doctrine of tithing the tithe, a word not mentioned in the
letters of Paul to the Christian churches, can be an unnecessary burden to the
poor in a church body. God has not called you to let your children go hungry or
without basic medical care and it is presumption on God to say that you will
give all of the money you would have paid for your rent and food to your church
and just trust God to provide. That being said, we all have experienced or we
all know of times of great need when God has provided abundantly and I can
honestly say that no matter what financial state I have been in God has never
let me go hungry or homeless. It is a balance produced by a sound mind and
strong faith. God honors a cheerful giving heart, notice the cheerful and not
begrudging, acting in faith but does not ask you to neglect your duties as a
provider for your family willingly. Do not let someone use this passage to
suggest to you that you sign over your paycheck to the church and then have a
bad testimony to your landlord or your family while you act in presumptive
faith, the kind of faith that gives you an excuse not to do what God has called
you to do while pretending to do what He has not called you to do.
1Timothy
5:8 But if any provide not for his own,
and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
Luke 21:5
¶ And as some spake of the temple, how
it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said, 6 As for these things which ye behold,
the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon
another, that shall not be thrown down. 7
And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and
what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass? 8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not
deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the
time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. 9 But when ye shall hear of wars and
commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the
end is not by and by. 10 Then
said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: 11 And great earthquakes shall
be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great
signs shall there be from heaven. 12 But
before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you,
delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought
before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. 13
And it shall turn to you for a testimony. 14 Settle it therefore in your hearts,
not to meditate before what ye shall answer: 15
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall
not be able to gainsay nor resist. 16
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks,
and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17 And ye shall be hated of all men
for my name’s sake. 18 But there shall
not an hair of your head perish. 19 In
your patience possess ye your souls.
Jesus restates His prophecy of the temple’s destruction from
19:41-48. I will repeat some of what I wrote. Here is a prophecy of the
destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70. Josephus, a Jewish general who
went over to the Romans, gave us the history of that event if we can believe
what he wrote. The siege and destruction of Jerusalem was the main event of the
First Jewish-Roman War that ended not only in the disaster to the city but the
destruction of the Temple, as well.
What was called Herod’s Temple, the Second Temple with the first destroyed
by the Babylonians hundreds of years previously, will be destroyed. The Jews
will suffer for rejecting their Messiah and for fabricating a false religion, a
house of cards built on the Mosaic Law, not too different from what many
Christians have done. It seems to be a
character trait of mankind, making it up as they go along. But, some historical
writers say that the destruction of Jerusalem marked the great shift away of
Christianity from its Jewish roots.
There is a warning in verse 8 to follow no one after Christ who
claims to be Him. Many terrible things will happen, both natural and man-made,
before this dreadful event and the disciples are told not to be concerned by
them. Based on the context we have the Preterist justification for saying that
the events of Revelation were fulfilled when Jerusalem fell to the Romans but
this has nothing to do with the events of Revelation. Jesus did not come to
physically rule the earth from Jerusalem in 70AD. The Preterist view is simply
insane and denies the text of Revelation.
Christ here tells His disciples that He will give them the words
to say when they are under persecution.
Jeremiah
1:9 Then the LORD put forth his hand,
and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in
thy mouth.
In chapter 12 Jesus also underscored this point in speaking of
persecution.
Luke
12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever
shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the
angels of God: 9 But he that denieth me
before men shall be denied before the angels of God. 10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the
Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the
Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. 11
And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what
thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: 12
For the Holy Ghost shall
teach
you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
The fact that Jesus is talking to His disciples about a
persecution to come in time that is not too far distant is evidenced by the
following statement.
18 But there shall not an hair of your head
perish.
If this passage is foretelling the destruction of Jerusalem and
the Temple in 70AD this undercuts Roman Catholic tradition which has Peter
dying at Rome in 64AD. Jesus is promising that not a hair of their head will
perish during this terrible national tragedy, that He will give them the words
to say.
Remember, that Peter didn’t say he was going to Rome. He said he
was writing from Babylon where there was a strong Jewish community.
1Peter
5:13 The church that is at Babylon,
elected together with you,
saluteth you; and so doth
Marcus my son.
Babylon was part of the Parthian kingdom at this time and Josephus
wrote about how the Jews in Judea appealed to the strong community in Babylon
to help them in their rebellions against Rome.
Based on some written evidence by Eusebius, a famous early church
historian, and other writers, Christians escaped from Jerusalem before the
destruction in 70AD. We know in Acts how God permitted a situation to exist
where many Christians had to leave Jerusalem because of persecution, perhaps
not only forcing them to be witnesses to the world but also saving them from
the awful terror that was to unfold in the Jewish-Roman War that resulted in
the destruction of the Temple.
If this passage is a reference to the events leading up to and
including the Fall of Jerusalem then literally Christ is assuring these
disciples in front of Him that they will survive it. The fearful sights and
natural disasters that surrounded the Fall of Jerusalem are spoken of by Josephus,
who was not a Christian but a Jew who had sided with the pagan Romans.
Josephus wrote about incredible signs that preceded the conquest
of Jerusalem by the future Roman emperor, Titus. They are hard to be believed
like soldiers and chariots in the sky and other events that many eyewitnesses
claimed to see, according to him. False prophets arose in abundance and a
couple are mentioned in Acts by the Jewish teacher of Paul, Gamaliel.
Acts
5:36 For before these days rose up
Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four
hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were
scattered, and brought to nought. 37
After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and
drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were
dispersed.
Verse 19 gives us one reason for including longsuffering, which is
patience, in the list of the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5. Trust in
Christ, wait on Christ, be faithful and strong. Remember that words joined by and are typically synonymous. We like to
think of longsuffering as putting up with the kids’ nonsense but it carried a
far more heavy weight in the first century in regard to persecution and
suffering.
Colossians
1:11 Strengthened with all might,
according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering
with joyfulness;
Luke 21:20
¶ And when ye shall see Jerusalem
compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. 21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the
mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not
them that are in the countries enter thereinto. 22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all
things which are written may be fulfilled. 23
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in
those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this
people. 24 And they shall fall by the
edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and
Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the
Gentiles be fulfilled. 25 And there
shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the
earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear,
and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the
powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And
then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great
glory. 28 And when these things begin to
come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth
nigh.
Here is a clear distinction between the Fall of Jerusalem and the
destruction of the Temple versus the end of history. Read 20-24 to the comma
before until the times of the Gentiles be
fulfilled. There is a couple thousand-year gap in that comma.
Paul wrote about the period of Israel’s blindness over the last
two thousand years;
Romans
11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye
should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own
conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is
written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. 28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but
as touching the election, they are
beloved for the fathers’ sakes. 29 For
the gifts and calling of God are
without repentance. 30 For as ye in
times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their
unbelief: 31 Even so have these also now
not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief,
that he might have mercy upon all.
Notice Paul’s until the
fulness of the Gentiles be come in. Notice also that God is not done with
the Jews but their apostasy turned to our salvation and we are to be witnesses to
them, not their persecutors.
Now, back to the comma and the two thousand plus year gap. Here is
another example of that type of handling of time in the Bible. Read this
prophecy in Isaiah.
Isaiah
61:1 ¶ The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath
anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up
the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the
prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the
LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
Now, read up to the comma after to proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD. Jesus refers to this
passage in His early ministry.
Luke
4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed
me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted,
to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to
set at liberty them that are bruised, 19
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat
down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 And he began to say unto them, This
day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
He stopped where that comma is for us. Before that comma is His
first advent and after that comma the day
of vengeance of our God holds the second advent as related in the Book of
the Revelation. There is a long time in between, two thousand years so far.
From the point at the end of Luke 21:24 and onward we have the
events of the end foretold. There was some question about how long that gap
might be. If the council had, as related in Acts 7, when they were addressed by
Stephen, acknowledged, as he said in verse 52, that they had had the Messiah
killed by the Romans, like David killed Uriah by the Ammonites (2Samuel 12:9),
that gap may have been much smaller than two thousand years.
Acts
7:52 Which of the prophets have not your
fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming
of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
Christ was ready, perhaps, to receive the repentant Jews. In Mark
16:19; Colossians 3:1; and Hebrews 10:12 He is said to be seated on the right
hand of God but in the following He might have been prepared, as an example to
us, to receive the Jews if they had been repentant and acknowledged who He is
and what they did.
Acts
7:55 But he, being full of the Holy
Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus
standing on the right hand of God, 56
And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing
on the right hand of God.
They had used the sword of Roman justice to murder the Innocent
One (Psalm 94:21; Matthew 27:4) but Peter said they did it out of ignorance.
Acts
3:17 And now, brethren, I wot that
through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
Confirming what Jesus said from the Cross.
Luke
23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive
them; for they know not what they do.
And the Law provided a way to deal with the rulers’ sin from
ignorance as per Leviticus, chapter 4. But, it was not to be. The Jews had
rebellion against God on their spiritual hearts.
Matthew
27:25 Then answered all the people, and
said, His blood be on us, and on our children.
John
19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto
them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
And so, we have the age of the Church until the times of the
Gentile domination are over. Israel still has to deal with the Gentiles and
their very existence, from a temporal and strictly earthly point of view,
depends on the support of powerful nations, the holding back of their enemies,
and a very, very shaky geopolitical situation with another holocaust from the
Beast and Satan’s fury coming. But, when Christ returns to rule Gentile
domination is over.
Revelation
11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and
there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are
become the kingdoms of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Verses 25-27 summarize the events of the Book of Revelation. For
27 see;
Revelation
1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and
every eye shall see him, and also
which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him.
Even so, Amen.
Finally, as in verse 28, we are told to be expectant of Christ’s
return, of His calling us out as the church, His body on earth being removed or
translated from here to Heaven.
1Corinthians
15:51 ¶ Behold, I shew you a mystery; We
shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at
the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Thessalonians 4:13 ¶ But I
would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep,
that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose
again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the
Lord, that we which are alive and
remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump
of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up
together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we
ever be with the Lord.
Titus
2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and
the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Luke 21:29
¶ And he spake to them a parable; Behold
the fig tree, and all the trees; 30 When
they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now
nigh at hand. 31 So likewise ye, when ye
see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 Verily I say unto you, This
generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. 33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my
words shall not pass away. 34 And take
heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with
surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day
come upon you unawares. 35 For as a
snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,
that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to
pass, and to stand before the Son of man. 37
And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went
out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives. 38 And all the people came early in the morning
to him in the temple, for to hear him.
See here in Jesus’ closing statements how with the age of the
Christian church not revealed that the two prophecies of events at least two
thousand years apart appear to be conflated. This confuses the Preterist who
say the events of Revelation were fulfilled in 70AD, which is nonsense.
First, it must be understood that the events of the Fall of
Jerusalem and the destruction of the Temple will happen so close in time that
the generation hearing Christ will have many who will witness them. With the
First Jewish-Roman War less than four decades away this generation will
experience it.
But, He includes in His closing remarks something more, that the whole earth will experience, the
coming of the kingdom of God
physically on earth at Christ’s return. Without the two thousand years of the
Church Age in between it appears confusing to some. But, look at the disaster
the Jews faced in 70AD as a type and a portent of what the end of human history
will look like. The signs of Jerusalem’s fall and the signs of the time before
Christ’s return will be similar and Christians will be delivered from both sets
of horrors involved in those signs.
