Bible Question: Did Jesus prophesay in Matthew 24 that the events of the Great Tribulation would be fulfilled between 30 A.D and 70 A.D ? Reading Matthew 24 Mark 13 and Luke 21 this would seem that the GT has already taken place so where does this leave the church ? |
Bible Answer: Ken John, Yes, you are correct in your view. Though most Christians are known as Futurists when it comes to End Times, there's a group called Preterists which believe in past fulfillment,not future fulfillment. I'm one that holds this belief. Though it's small, it's gaining adherents rapidly. The basic view is that 70 AD marks the end. This still though leaves the great commission as well as the healing of nations. Take care, SUEDE |
