Olivet Discourse: Prophecy and Eschatology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798243305006)

Unpack the most critical and complex prophecy of the New Testament.

This in-depth study, "Olivet Discourse: Prophecy and Eschatology," offers a detailed cross-Gospel analysis of Jesus's discourse in Matthew 24-25, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Moving beyond simple timelines, this paper dissects the dual prophetic fulfillment of the Temple's destruction (A.D. 70) and the Second Coming, demonstrating how the disciples' questions framed the entire message.

Explore the rich cultural and linguistic nuances that unlock the discourse's true meaning:

• The Dual Event: Discover how Luke's account provides a clear, practical sign of the Roman siege, while Matthew moves the narrative toward the cosmic signs of the final Parousia.
• The Global Gospel: Understand the non-negotiable prerequisite for the end-the preaching of the Gospel to all ethnesin (ethnic/people groups), not just modern nations.
• The Call to Readiness: Analyze the practical lessons of the Parables of the Ten Virgins and the Sheep and the Goats, emphasizing that the long delay demands continuous spiritual vigilance and active stewardship, not passive speculation.
