This is just wild supposition.

What do you expect, that Jesus would post a Youtube video?

There is no reason NOT to suppose that Jesus would repeat a very important message multiple times.
Jesus never went around repeating Himself - especially, on the same day.

You seem to have made "wild supposition" about what is not present in the Luke account.

You are trying too hard to make the scriptures agree to something you are wanting the scriptures to say.

People always like to think that the Olivet Discourse is all about either [ strictly ] the events circa 70 A.D. or [ strictly ] the End Times Scenario. The truth is - it is neither of those - rather, it is "in between" ( in a sense ).

The preterists are wrong. The dispensationalists / futurists are wrong.

I repeat:

The Olivet Discourse prophecy covers a span of time that is ~2000 years long. It includes the events circa 70 A.D., but is not limited to only those events.
The "latest" thing it includes is the Second Coming of Christ.

[FONT=&quot]15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.[/FONT]

Show me where Luke says the discussion takes place on the Mt Of Olives.


Why do Mark and Matthew differ in terms of the questions asked?

Are they historically inaccurate too?

I believe you are making an incorrect assumption about where the discourse takes place. There is only one discourse, and it takes place on the Mount of Olives. That is why it is called the Olivet Discourse. Just because Luke does not specifically mention the mount of olives, does not mean that the event described in Luke occurred elsewhere.

I refer you to my thoughts already expressed on that:







I have made no such proposition. None of the writers have their facts wrong.

So Luke was a bit sloppy and omitted some details? Do you actually believe the Bible to be spirit breathed, inspired by God himself?

When you argue like this you are really second guessing Scripture itself. To me this is simply not a valid stance.
yup, because ON verse 27 jesus talking about his second coming in the cloud, If He only talk about temple destruction why he mention His coming oN the cloud?

"Oh, good grief! You know what I mean..." :rolleyes:

He did not have this entire conversation more than once in the same day - each recorded by a different writer.

I believe this is more severe persecution or great tribulation for christians
Let's not confuse the trials, tribulations, and persecution of Christians with the Great Tribulation (literally The Tribulation, The Great, in Greek). Both Daniel and Christ stated that this is a UNIQUE time period and event, such as has never been, nor ever will be. Furthermore, it is reserved for the unbelieving and the ungodly, not for the saints. It is the outpouring of God's wrath on the unbelieving and idolatrous world when it chooses to worship Satan instead of God.

There is no requirement for Luke to say it. Nor is it a requirement for us to determine that all three accounts are talking about the same event.

There is no inaccuracy. Matthew recorded it the way he did. Mark recorded it the way he did. Learn to accept it as it is, and not get "hung up" on 'semantics' too much. You have to balance 'looking at the forest' with 'looking at the trees'. And, you shouldn't stare too hard at a spot on the back of a bug on the bark on a single tree. ;)

Why make wild statements backed up by nothing but how you think things ought to be?

There are multiple differences between the 3 accounts, therefore you need to make a choice.

Are they confused, or are they recounting different events? What other options are there?

You have no evidence that Jesus never repeated himself. I don't what more to say, other than you are just speculating.

There are a whole lot more similarities than there are differences. What do you have to say about that?

To my knowledge great tribulation happen when son of prediction in power and rapture happen after that time


2 thessalonians
[h=3]The Man of Lawlessness[/h]2 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.

Well I am now studying the timelines. According to Matthew the discourse took place on the Monday, Mark - the Tuesday, Luke the Sunday.

Show me where in Matthew it actually says that it took place on Monday.
Show me where in Mark it actually says that it took place on Tuesday.
Show me where in Luke it actually says that it took place on Sunday.

:p

( Since you insist that everything must be said explicitly by each writer in the book that he wrote. )

look odd brother, oN monday desciple ask about when destruction of the temple and sign of second coming, Tuesday ask about destruction of the temple, and Jesus explain the sign of His coming oN the cloud. If they not ask about second coming, why the answered explain d how He come oN the cloud, and sunday they ask about temple destruction, and again Jesus explain how He appear in the cloud.

in those 3 article Jesus always tell about second coming in the cloud. To me It paralel with the story of how Jesus born, though It is in the 4 gospel doesn't mean happen 4 time.
