    Learn The Facts on Matthew 24:21 In Context:

    With respect Matthew 24:21 you can get a better comprehension by

    looking at it in context as clearly it has both a minor and a major

    fulfillment. Its minor fulfillment was when the Romans destroyed the

    temple app. 70 AD, but the greater fulfillment of that which Jesus

    (Yeshua) spoke of in Matthew 24:4-36 was for the future. Let's look

    at the scripture in context with appropriate comments to assist your

    comprehension. "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that

    no man lead you astray. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am

    the Christ; and shall lead many astray.[we have seen many being lead

    astray by Jimmy Jones, Osama bin Ladin, David Korash, and many others

    in our time] 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that

    ye be not troubled: for [these things] must needs come to pass; but the

    end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom

    against kingdom; and there shall be famines and earthquakes in divers

    places.[we have been seeing this in our time, wars and wars, famines in

    various places, etc.] 8 But all these things are the beginning of

    travail.[note, all these things are just the beginning, which by its

    nature implies there will also be an end, i.e., the culmination of the

    end times] 9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shallkill you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name's sake.

    [this started to happen in a large scale during the Second World War

    when A. Hitler went after people because of their religion. This did

    NOT occur in the First World War] 10 And then shall many stumble, and

    shall deliver up one another, and shall hate one another.[at the moment

    we see a world filled with hate, examples in Palestine, Iraq, Kashmir,

    etc.] 11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many

    astray.[some of these are Jimmy Jones, Osama bin Ladin, and many many

    others] 12 And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the

    many shall wax cold.[we see this today, many care not for their

    neighbors and have become fed up with all religion as they have seen

    too much wrong is many so called religious groups such as the TV

    evangelist whose main pitch is for more money] 13 But he that endureth

    to the end, the same shall be saved.[we must keep are faith as faith

    that becomes dead is worthless] 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall

    be preached in the whole world for a testimony unto all the nations;

    and then shall the end come.[the Gospel about Christ must first be

    preached in every nation of the world, not necessarily to every person,

    and only then can the culmination of the end times we are living in

    actually occur. This has not yet occurred as later shown by Jesus

    (Yeshua)] 15 When therefore ye see the abomination of desolation, which

    was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place

    (let him that readeth understand), 16 then let them that are in Judaea

    flee unto the mountains: [this was speaking of the minor fulfillment

    that occurred as an example for all of us today. It happened in 70 AD

    with the destruction of the temple]17 let him that is on the housetop

    not go down to take out things that are in his house: [this refers towhen the Roman armies temporarily left off their siege of Jerusalem

    thus giving opportunity for all who believed Jesus' (Yeshua's) word an

    opportunity to get out before the next siege and the cities' and

    temple's destruction]18 and let him that is in the field not return

    back to take his cloak. 19 But woe unto them that are with child and to

    them that give suck in those days![when the final seige occurred in 70

    AD it was a terrifying thing for the inhabitants of Jerusalem and

    serves as an example for us who are living in the time of the end of

    this old system of things which will be replaced by Christ's Kingdom]

    20 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on a

    sabbath: 21 for then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been

    from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.[here

    we can clearly see that Jesus (Yeshua) is talking about the end times

    and its culmination and not the minor fulfillment and/or example of

    what occurred in 70 AD as he said, "such as hath not been from the

    beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be" clearly

    showing a time that would effect the entire earth and not just

    Jerusalem alone and the time for this is near at hand, i.e., the

    culmination of the end times] 22 And except those days had been

    shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect's sake

    those days shall be shortened.[clearly we are living in the end times

    as things continue to get ever worse around the world; to wit, who ever

    thought we would see the World Trade Center destroyed in New York by an

    evil false messiah from the desert, Osama bin Ladin.] 23 Then if any

    man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ, or, Here; believe [it]

    not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and

    shall show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible,

    even the elect.[we see this type of false prophet everywhere, in fact

    David Korash even said once that he was the messiah and he was NOT

    alone as there have been in recent times many like him.] 25 Behold, Ihave told you beforehand. 26 If therefore they shall say unto you,

    Behold, he is in the wilderness; go not forth: Behold, he is in the

    inner chambers; believe [it] not. 27 For as the lightning cometh forth

    from the east, and is seen even unto the west; so shall be the coming

    of the Son of man. [there would be many trying to mislead even the

    elect, but we should not be fooled by these self-aggrandizers]28

    Wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

    29 But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall be

    darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall

    fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:[this

    scripture shows that immediately after the tribulation that Satan and

    his angels will be abyssesed and no longer able to trouble the world

    which then will be under the rule of Christ as King.] 30 and then shall

    appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the

    tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming on

    the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.[All will see the

    change occurring due to the events occurring] 31 And he shall send

    forth his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather

    together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the

    other. [Here Jesus (Yeshua) gives the orders to his angels to gather

    his faithful followers together under his command.]

    32 Now from the fig tree learn her parable: when her branch is now

    become tender, and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that the summer is

    nigh; 33 even so ye also, when ye see all these things, know ye that he

    is nigh, [even] at the doors.[Here Jesus (Yeshua) is giving an

    illustration to show that his true followers must stay alert and beaware of the signs of the times.] 34 Verily I say unto you, This

    generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished.

    [Here he is letting us know that this tribulation and ever worsening

    world conditions will not continue on without letup, but will be short

    lived to the time of one generation]35 Heaven and earth shall pass

    away, but my words shall not pass away. [Here he states that his word

    is true and these things will come to pass; this is an assurance for

    all of his faithful followers]36 But of that day and hour knoweth no

    one, not even the angels of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father

    only.[However, even Jesus (Yeshua) did NOT know the exact day and hour

    for the culmination of the end times; yet today we have seen some so

    called prophets even predict it. They are frauds.]
