00:00beloved we are living in a moment of history unlike any other the world is shaking morally politically and spiritually and the pace is accelerating yet none of this should surprise the follower of christ
00:15nearly two thousand years ago our lord jesus christ stood on the mount of olives and spoke with piercing clarity about the events that would unfold before his return he warned of false messiahs of wars and rumors of wars of increasing lawlessness and of a love for truth growing cold we are witnessing these very realities in our own day
00:43the headlines are not random they are the echo of prophecy fulfilled what jesus said would happen is not merely on the horizon it is here pressing upon us with urgency
00:56and so we are not left to speculation or fear we have a sure word from the lord the question before us is not whether his words are true they are but whether we will respond in faith obedience and readiness
01:09as christ's people we must lift our eyes strengthen our hearts and proclaim his gospel until he comes point one the certainty of christ's prophetic words when jesus sat with his disciples on the mount of olives he wasn't making guesses about the future
01:24he wasn't offering cautious predictions or vague possibilities he was declaring absolute truth from the mouth of the one who is himself the alpha and the omega the beginning and the end his words were not the product of human observation but divine revelation
01:42think of the scene the disciples still intoxicated by the beauty of the temple could hardly imagine its destruction yet jesus with calm authority said not one stone here will be left upon another matthew
01:59within a generation in ad seventy the roman armies reduced it to rubble just as he said that single event should be enough to convince us that when jesus speaks of the end he speaks with perfect certainty
02:15and here's the staggering truth everything he foretold about the end times is unfolding before our eyes this is not coincidence it is the outworking of the eternal plan of god
02:28jesus words stand above the headlines above political forecasts above the noise of the world
02:36if you doubt him you will be swept away by fear and confusion but if you trust his word you will stand unshaken
02:43the one who told us the beginning from the end will also keep his promise to return in glory
02:49that is the anchor for the soul in days like these
02:53point to the rise of spiritual deception in matthew 24
02:574-5 jesus very first warning was not about earthquakes or wars it was about deception
03:04see to it that no one misleads you
03:08that alone tells us how serious this danger is
03:12before the shaking of the earth there will be a shaking of truth
03:18picture a marketplace filled with counterfeit merchants
03:23the signs look right the products look appealing but the closer you examine the more you see they are cheap imitations
03:32that's the state of much of the so-called christian teaching today
03:38smooth words attractive promises
03:40but no gospel
03:42jesus said many would come in his name not denying him outright but using his name as a brand for their lies
03:50we see it in the prosperity preachers who promise earthly wealth while ignoring the call to repentance
03:56we see it in progressive christianity that strips the bible of its authority
04:02we see it in movements that trade the cross for self help replacing
04:08the gospel of grace with a gospel of self
04:10the danger is not just outside the church
04:12it is inside and the tragedy is that many are being led astray
04:18because they do not know the word of god well enough to discern truth from error
04:23that's why jesus command is personal
04:26see to it that no one misleads you
04:28that means you must test every sermon every teaching every spiritual trend against scripture
04:37only then can you remain faithful in an age where deception is dressed in the garments of light
04:44point three the escalation of moral corruption jesus warned in matthew 24 12 because lawlessness
04:53is increased most people's love will grow cold this is more than just a decline in manners
05:00it's a deep moral decay the greek word for lawlessness doesn't merely mean breaking human
05:06laws it means living in open rebellion against god's authority in the days of noah people lived
05:13as if god did not exist violence filled the earth marriage was defiled truth was despised
05:21sound familiar that's our world today what god calls sin culture now celebrates what god calls holy
05:29the world mocks morality has not just shifted it has been inverted and here is the sobering part
05:36when lawlessness increases love grows cold that is compassion disappears relationships fracture
05:46and even the basic dignity of human life is trampled we see it in the breakdown of the family in the
05:54normalization of perversion in the cruelty displayed across media platforms but jesus told us this would
06:01happen he was not naive about human nature sin left unchecked never drifts toward goodness it
06:10accelerates toward destruction and when a society rejects god's truth moral collapse is inevitable
06:18for the believer this is not a call to despair but to stand apart we are called to shine as lights in the
06:25darkness to speak truth when lies are fashionable and to love when the world grows cold point four the
06:33increase of global turmoil jesus spoke of a time when the earth itself would seem to groan under the weight
06:41of sin in matthew 24 6-8 he said there would be wars and rumors of wars famines and earthquakes in various
06:51places but all these things are merely the beginning of birth pains consider the imagery birth pains any mother
06:59knows that once labor begins the pains grow closer together and more intense until the moment of delivery
07:08the events jesus described are not random or cyclical they are progressive the frequency and intensity will
07:16increase as his return draws near look around conflict is raging across the globe nations rise against
07:24nations ideologies ideologies clash violently and the world teeters under constant threat famine still
07:32claims millions of lives in some regions while other nations drown in excess natural disasters strike
07:40with an almost relentless rhythm earthquakes floods wildfires hurricanes each one reminding us that creation
07:50is groaning just as romans 8 22 says yet jesus told us not to be terrified why because these events are signs not the end
08:03they are reminders that history is moving toward a certain climax the visible return of christ for believers the
08:11right response is not panic but preparation turmoil is the stage on which god will display his final redemption
08:20it should drive us not to fear but to a greater urgency in the gospel knowing the days are short and the work is great
08:28point five the urgency of gospel faithfulness in matthew 24 14 jesus declared this gospel of the kingdom shall be
08:37preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations and then the end will come that is not just a
08:44prophecy it's a mandate we are not spectators in the end times we are witnesses the same lord who told us of
08:51deception moral collapse and global turmoil also commanded us to be steadfast in proclaiming the truth
08:59if the world is growing darker then the light of the gospel must shine brighter think of the early church
09:06surrounded by persecution they did not retreat the book of acts records that they turned the world upside
09:12down acts 17 6 because they would not stop speaking of what they had seen and heard they understood that
09:20their generation's salvation depended on their generation's obedience to the great commission now it is our
09:26turn god has placed us in this moment of history in this exact place for this exact purpose to proclaim christ
09:34crucified risen and coming again every conversation every act of kindness every open bible is part of that
09:44mission the urgency is real because time is short the day will come when the final trumpet sounds and the door
09:53of grace will close until then we stand firm we speak boldly and we live as those who are ready to see our king
