From such turn away We need to keep 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 11.2), right? in the light of the many examples of faith from the Old Testament saints, which the writer to the Hebrews mentions in chapter 11. I do think that Matthew 24's immediate context is the great tribulation (24.21); a unique, future event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post speaks is to the Church of today. I have no idea what you mean concerning Jewish background. This morning I was praying with Jesus about our present time. The verses posted are for our present day and hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John 16.33 definitely does cover the tribulations that believers go through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
