The Olivet Discourse - is it already fulfilled or still in our future?

Read me first...

"The destruction of Jerusalem was more terrible than anything that the world has ever witnessed, either before or since. Even Titus seemed to see in his cruel work the hand of an avenging God" -- Charles H. Spurgeon

Charles H. Spurgeon shares on "THE PAROUSIA" written by J. S. Russell
Though the author's theory is carried too far, it has so much of truth in it, and throws so much new light upon obscure portions of the Scriptures, and is accompanied with so much critical research and close reasoning, that it can be injurious to none and may be profitable to all."

David Curtis

The Law system was a shadow of the good things to come. The good things were the spiritual things of the gospel. It had been prophesied that Jerusalem would be destroyed and that God would raise a spiritual temple, the church, Christ's body.

Matthew 24 and 25 are the "heart" of New Testament prophecy. This is the Lord's teaching on the times of the end. Looking at this text through first century glasses gives us a whole new meaning of Jesus' words. Jesus is not talking to us (twentieth century Americans), but to His disciples (first century Jews). Things that were future (to them), at the time of the writing, are ancient history to us. This whole discourse is concerned with answering the disciple's questions concerning the end of the Jewish age (not world) and the parousia of Christ, both of which would be demonstrated by the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jewish temple. If you study through these messages I think they will answer just about all of your questions on the preterist view of eschatology.
