Bible Note: Hi doc; Thanks, I agree with you. could we not say though, that our Lord is answering three questions; "Tell us, when will these things happen,/ (and) what will be the sign of Your coming,/ (and) of the end of the age?"; and, although he is talking to His disciples; that these events all take place post Pentecost, therefor, His disciples, now born again, and no longer part of the nation Israel, and, that the destruction in 70 AD not being confined to Jerusalem, that he would be talking about Israel, even though some of them would be there to see it? Also; what are your thoughts please on 70AD being 1/3 of this prophase? What is your take on end of the age meaning, end of the church age stj |
