nd of the World? Does Matthew 24 and a Blood Moon at Passover Forecast Jerusalem's Destruction?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Summary: When Christ left the temple for the last time, He said sadly, “There shall not be left one stone on another.” The disciples thought that must be the end of the world, and asked the sign of it. The Savior mingled the signs for the end of the world with the destruction of Jerusalem and since some of the stones at the wailing wall have not been thrown down, we may see an event fit this prophecy soon.

Christ gave signs for the end of the world that sound like the evening news—wars, famines, pestilences, earthquakes. But the most specific sign is when you see [military force] where it ought not to be, Matthew 24:15, Mark 13:14.

While this is true of America now [link at the bottom] Christ’s followers understood his reference to Rome and fled when the Roman army came in 66 AD so that noChristians died in the siege by Titus in 70 AD. The question is, can we understand the parallels between then and now as we see military “standing where it ought not”? ibid.

Personal friends of this author had an unpleasant camping encounter in Arizona with a machine gun mounted on a jeep and four men who didn’t speak English. That begs consideration of Christ’s warning which also urged our understanding of the book of Daniel. ibid.

The book of Daniel was sealed until the time of the end, Dan 12:4. But Gabriel told Daniel that his vision [chazon] of the ram and goat is at the time of the end, Dan 8:17. The horns on the ram are said to be the kings of Media and Persia (Dan 8:20), but we know those areas as Iraq and Iran.

The horn of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, is broken. Recognizing this helps us see this end-time application as it unseals the book of Daniel with a double meaning.

While human vision is limited and we might not know what the Russians will do next, here’s prophecy spanning 2500 years that’s happening now as it did in history.

After that prophecy in Daniel 8, the next chapter implies a destruction of Jerusalem saying, from a decree to restore and build Jerusalem to “messiah” [anointing] will be 69 weeks, Dan 9:25.

Here’s an opportunity for deception. Matthew 24 speaks of others falsely coming in Christ’s name. It would not be surprising to see this coincide with 69 weeks after a destruction and call to rebuild.

The true anointing for end-times is seen the New Covenant Promise of Ezekiel 36:25-27. Dan 9:25 supports Christ’s words in Matthew 24 where not one stone will be left on another (but some haven’t been thrown down) and a sign to flee when Jerusalem is compassed with armies.

Obedience to that warning spared the Christians who fled in 66 AD. We should learn from history. This information supports an impending time of judgment and destruction, as does the prophet Zechariah:

“Behold, the day of the Lord [Old Testament term for the apocalyptic period] comes…gather all nations [Arab nations, United Nations?] against Jerusalem to battle…the houses shall be rifled and the women ravished and half the city shall go into captivity…then shall the Lord go forth to fight against those nation.” Zecharian 14:1-3. This is not about 70 AD because the Lord didn’t fight the Romans then.

The intent of this article is a “heads up” for those living in Jerusalem. “When you shall see [military force] standing where it ought not…flee.” Since Christ blended the signs for Jerusalem’s destruction with the end of the world, it’s possible that we could see trouble at Passover this year.

The prophet Joel foretold the moon being turned to blood before “the day of the Lord.” Joel 2:31. With astronomy telling us of a blood moon at Passover—the historic time of judgment for Jews, why not share this with Jewish friends as a “heads up” for anyone they know in Jerusalem?

For a better understanding of Daniel’s end-time application of prophecy, see the left column at http://AmericaInProphecy.me Dr. Ruhling’s primary website is http://RichardRuhling.com His views are non-denominational and he believes we have misinterpreted the Bible’s wedding parables as a rapture, but God married Israel when they made a covenant and we expect a parallel opportunity that Paul included when he said, “All those things happened for examples…ends of the world.” 1Cor 10:1,11
