Jesus in Action - Messages from Mark • Chapter13
When we examine Biblical prophecy, like what we find in Mark 13, we might wish for it to cooperatively line up into an A-B-C, 1-2-3 sequence, but it doesn’t read that way. Many theological schemes force the Bible’s teaching into artificially contrived time-lines. Systems are interesting, but we can’t superimpose our preconceived ideas on what Jesus said and make it all fit into a tidy system.
While the rest of the Bible is full of teaching concerning the return of Jesus and the end of the age, Mark 13 provides Christ’s stand-alone answer to his disciples’ questions: “When will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?” Fortunately, this chapter doesn’t overtly lead into the murky water of controversy over various elements of end-times theology: we won’t dive into discussion about the pre, mid, or post theories of Christ’s return in relation to the Great Tribulation or his Millennial Reign. Instead, we’ll go through this chapter, verse by verse, and listen to what Jesus said about the signs of the times. Join us.
