When will the end of this present age come? What will be the signs of the times that the end is near? When will the Son of Man come to rule and reign in all of His glory? Many in Israel during Jesus’ time expected the end to come immediately when Messiah came. In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus has taught and teaches more in our passage this morning that the end has come, but will continue to progressively come or be revealed between the first and second comings of Jesus Christ.
As believers, our confidence is that in Christ we are truly more than overcomers through Jesus who loved us (Romans 8:31-39). We can endure and persevere in spite of the persecutions, temptations and great tribulation. When will the end come? The end will come progressively until the Son of Man returns. The history of sinful mankind will continue to unfold as if there was not a cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ, but the full redemption of God’s people will reveal itself when Jesus returns for His own. Today’s passage has been popularly known as The Olivet Discourse (also found in Matthew 24 and Mark 13).
