Matthew 24 has been twisted to sell books and create fear. Here's what Jesus actually meant.
In this episode, Alex breaks down Matthew 24:15-28 and the "abomination of desolation" - revealing how this passage was Jesus giving His disciples specific instructions for surviving the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, not a roadmap for modern end times predictions.
Discover why the rapture isn't biblical, how false teachers use confusion to control people, and what it means to live faithfully while waiting for Christ's return. This historical context will free you from doomsday anxiety and refocus your faith on what matters.
Key Topics:
* The true meaning of "abomination of desolation"
* Historical context of Jerusalem's destruction (70 AD)
* Why end times predictions miss the point
* Biblical patterns for fleeing evil
* Living faithfully vs. sign-seeking
Join Alex and Lokelani for biblical teaching that cuts through the noise and gets back to Scripture's clear message.
