See the Signs
The world in turmoil, people in fear, perplexity, and worry
Like the Prophecy of the fall of Jerusalem/the Temple in AD70
Not one stone - some of the Temple’s stones were 7 feet tall and 60 feet long.
Warning
Sign of the prophecy’s veracity and a foreshadowing of things to come
Josephus reports - 1,100,000 Lille and 97,000 dragged off in parade to Rome
Starvation in the city- a woman named Mary slew & roasted and ate her own infant
Judgment on Jerusalem for unbelief/rejecting Jesus. The Lord has departed from the Temple as they had deserted God in their hearts. Outwardly the Temple has remained beautiful and worship had continued.
Those who heeded the warning were sparedYour redemption is drawing near - every time you see a sign think on this
v.27 Seeing the coming of the Son of Man
v.28 “When these things begin to take place...
these things
The Temple & such up to 70ad
Signs in moon & stars, distress of nations, planet in turmoil, people fainting, the heavens being shaken

Dissipation - a life of wasteful self-indulgence (PBC)
The Cares of this life -
Illustration:
And that day come upon you suddenly like a trap
But always stay awake, praying - spiritually alert and anticipating and trusting
