Thought questions addressed in the recorded discussion

Audio MP3 Matthew 24 part 2

  • Do the disciples really understand what Yeshua is trying to tell them?
    • What is the running message of the Book of Matthew?
    • How does this help us understand the message of Matt. 24?
    • How does Daniel 11-12 as well as Zechariah 14 explain the “abomination that causes desolation”?
    • How does a lack of humility and an tolerance of arrogance precede the Day of the Lord?
  • Are the events foretold in Matthew 24 limited geographically to the territory of the Roman Empire, the Land of Israel or the whole world?
    • Which are the 70 nations, and what does that have to do with the “good news being preached to the whole world”?
    • What are the parallels between this chapter and Daniel 11?
  • Why does Yeshua (Jesus) repeat the warning about false messiahs and false prophets three times? (Matt. 24:5, 11, 24)
    • What are the hallmarks of the people’s hearts each of the times the temple was left desolate, by Babylon, by Greece and by Rome?
    • What is the “strong delusion” mentioned in Matt. 24:24?
    • What does Deuteronomy 13 tell us about how to test prophets?
    • How does the test fit with Matt. 24:5, 11, 24?
  • What does Yeshua want us to understand about the “abomination of desolation” in Matt. 24:15?
  • What is the connection between the description of corpses and scavenging birds in Matt. 24:28 and the description of the Battle of Armageddon in Rev. 19:19-21?
    • Where do the corpses fit into the signs and wonders?
    • How does Joel 2 help explain the reference to the sun, moon and stars in Matt. 24:29?
  • What does the reference to “one was taken and the other left” in Matt. 24:40-41 really mean?
    • How does Matt. 24:39 explain whether one wants to be among those taken or left?
    • Was it better for Noah and his family to be taken away with the floodwaters or left behind on the boat?
