When Desolation Comes Near

Published: Oct. 9, 2022, 10 a.m.

Having previously explained what will happen before the temple is destroyed. In this portion of the Olivet Discourse Jesus answers the disciples\u2019 question regarding how the temple will be desolated. God will use another nation to judge unbelieving and unfaithful Israel, justice will be done. This righteous judgment is a fulfillment of God\u2019s word and a sobering reminder to both God\u2019s holiness and our great need for God\u2019s grace in Jesus Christ.
