PROPHETIC ADDRESS FROM THE MOUNT OF OLIVES / MATTHEW 24:3 – 25:46

Jesus’ prophecy was primarily a reply to the disciples’ question: “What will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” Jesus gave them:

General signs and a summary of key events leading up to the last days (Matthew 24:4-14)
Special warning signs that would announce the final days of the present age, which will be the great tribulation (Matthew 24:15-28).
Spectacular signs that will occur when Christ triumphantly returns to earth at the end of the great tribulation “with power and great glory” (Matthew 24:29-31).
A warning for those who have chosen to trust Christ during the horrible tribulation period, calling them to be alert to the signs leading up to Christ’s expected return to end the tribulation (Matthew 24:32-35).
A challenge for believers living before the tribulation to be spiritually ready for the unknown time when Christ will come to take His faithful followers from this world, sparing them from the severe tribulation judgments He will unleash on the earth (Matthew 24:36-51; 25:1-30; John 14:3). Note that although Christ will remove His true church from the world prior to the tribulation judgments, some people will come to Christ during the tribulation; but they will do so under great persecution from the antichrist. Those who survive are the believers that Christ will rescue when He physically returns to earth to end the tribulation and destroy the forces of the antichrist.
And a description of the judgment of nations after Jesus’ return to earth (Matthew 25:31-46).

Notice that many details of Christ’s coming (and the end times in general) are not revealed in Matthew 24. For that matter, no one has so far been able to interpret or figure out all of the Bible’s prophecies about the end times with complete certainty. In some cases, the timing or order of events is uncertain; in other instances, the specific details of signs and events are not completely clear. No doubt, this is in the plan of God, as the New Testament writers and Jesus Himself were not trying to reveal all the details about the end times. Their main concern was to challenge God’s people to “keep watch” (Matthew 24:42; 25:13) and to be ready for Christ’s coming. For this reason, Jesus’ prophecy contains an element of mystery requiring humility, readiness and a heart focused on the Lord Jesus Himself. We can expect God to give His people additional insight and understanding about end-time events as they unfold (Daniel 12:9).
