Episode 262: 32AD Passion Week Tuesday: No One Knows the Day or Hour

After being sought out by gentiles, Jesus responds "unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but, if it dies, it product much grain. He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life." Further, Jesus shouted in prayer to his father, and a voice came from heaven in response. In this podcast, we discuss the grain of wheat and the voice from heaven. John 12:20-36www.messagetokings.com

Jesus says "no one knows the day or hour." In this podcast, we discuss this verse, some history, and times and seasons. But more importantly, does this mean we should be prepared? Sure, but more importantly we should live like there is no tomorrow! Mark 13:32-37Luke 21:34-38Matthew 24:14www.messagetokings.com

Jesus continues to discuss end times in the Olivet Discourse, and concludes with the final judgement. In this podcast, we discuss this judgment, the millennium reign, and the New Jerusalem.   Matthew 25:31-46Revelation 21www.messagetokings.com

In connection with the Olivet Discourse, Jesus tells the parable of the wise and foolish virgins.  While the bridegroom delayed in his coming, five wise virgins had enough oil to light their lamps, while five foolish virgins ran out of oil.  While they are gone, the bridegroom arrives locking out the foolish virgins.  In this episode, we cover different perspectives of this parable and its primary interpretation of waiting and not growing weary.  Matthew 25:1-132 Timothy 4:7-8Romans 5:3-4James 1:2-4www.messagetokings.com

Jesus continues his private meeting with his disciples on end times. In this final installment of the Olivet Discourse, we discuss the rapture, the judgment, and the end of the age. Matthew 24:29-44Matthew 25:31-46www.messagetokings.com

Jesus continues his discourse on end times from the Mount of Olives.  In this episode, we discuss the Abomination of Desolation, and the antichrist. Matthew 24:19-28Daniel 9:27Daniel 11:31Daniel 12:7Daniel 12:112 Thessalonians 2:1-12www.messagetokings.com

Jesus' disciples ask Jesus about the end, "when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age." Jesus answered the first part of the question, with 11 signs of the current age: wars, rumors of wars, false Christs, famines, pestilences, earthquakes, persecution, betrayal, false prophets, lawlessness, and the gospel is preached in all the world.  Then, the end will come.  Matthew 24:1-18www.messagetokings.com

While in the temple courts, Jesus compares the tithing of a poor widow and a rich arrogant pharisee. The contrast is obvious and apparent, and reveals the disparity of the corrupt religious system and the heart of a true worship.Mark 12:41-44Luke 21:1-41 Samuel 16:7Guest Speaker: Evangeline Heastonwww.messagetokings.com

After facing the Pharisees and their questions, Jesus pronounced the seven or eight woes of the Scribes and Pharisees. Greater will be the judgment of these scribes and pharisees for their condemnation of the only sinless man to walk planet earth. In this episode, we parallel these woes with other verses of judgment about judgment.      Matthew 23:1-39Matthew 12:41-42James 3:1Mark 9:42www.messagetokings.com

A scribe asks Jesus what is the greatest commandment.  In this episode, we dissect these passages from Matthew 22 and Mark 12 and compare it to Deuteronomy 6:5.  Afterward, we will see what happens when Jesus is done with their questions; he asks them a question, a mystery pulled from Psalm 110.  Who is talking in Psalm 110 when David writes "the Lord said to my Lord?" Matthew 22:34-46Mark 12:28-37Luke 20:41-44Deuteronomy 6:5Psalm 110www.messagetokings.com
