Understanding Christianity

Jesus continues His final public discourse before His death. He is in the temple teaching on the destruction of Jerusalem and His Second Coming. Dr. Sean Cole explains two primary truths from this text: (1) God gives people time to repent before He brings final judgment. The destruction of Jerusalem is a prototype of final judgment. (2) The return of Christ should cause us great joy, not great fear. Jesus will return and bring both salvation and judgment. Salvation for those who are His people and judgment for those who are not His people. The Second Coming is the blessed hope for believers while the Day of the Lord is wrath and vengeance for unbelievers. www.seancole.net
