Matthew 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
Matthew 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
This is the only thing Jesus mentioned that applied back in the first century.
The overthrow of Jerusalem and the Hebrews scattered which their house would be desolate until the time God restored the kingdom to them.
Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
Then the rest of it is in the future around this time.
So Jesus was directing this towards the Jewish people, saints in the future.
Daniel 12:4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Daniel did not understand what was told him for he had a limited view of the world.
He was told to go his way for he could not understand it for the book is sealed until the time of the end and then they would understand it.
For many shall run to and fro, advanced travel, and knowledge shall be increased, advanced technology, which then the saints can see, hear, and know what is going on in the world.
And how it is possible for them to come together for they can communicate with each other, and can travel to each other which they will establish a system on a world wide level that is against God's operation for the world.
Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
The saints could not know of these things that happen on different places on earth in the first century unless there is technology.
Which they would be in the same situation as Daniel having a limited view of the world.
This can only happen in the future that they would know.
Which we know of WW1, WW2, with footage, and the clashes today between the nations.
And we know of earthquakes, pestilences, and famines that are happening around the world.
They would not know that in the first century.
Basically all they would know is when they went outside and looked around.
Matthew 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
How could the saints be hated of all nations in the first century when Christianity would not even spread that far back then with the majority of the world not knowing about it.
Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
How can the love of many wax cold at a time when they were not in contact with many people to make that judgement as an overall attitude.
And iniquity was not as bad back then.
Proverbs 12:11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
The last generation before Jesus comes back which the children will not obey parents.
And believe they are pure but not washed from their filthiness.
And highly selfish, and highly arrogant, gong against each other aggressively.
And heaping money to themselves which they will not care about the poor and needy.
Which money will be flowing like a raging river and they can reach out to more people to make money gobbling up money that is not available to the poor and needy.
In America we see this on a nation wide level greediness, selfishness, arrogance, love of money neglecting the poor, basically caring about self, loving sins, and children not obeying parents.
Causing Americans not to care about each other as much, and not love each other as much which at the last days they will be without natural affection.
Which the husbands and wives, men and women, parents and children, and society in general fight and do not get along.
With America having more divisions, and fighting on the internet belittling people, exalting themselves, than any other nation on earth.
And the behavior of other nations although America beats them in general.
Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
1 Corinthians 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
How can the Gospel be preached in to all the world as a witness to all nations back in the first century.
Which how can the end come in the first century when the end will come when Jesus delivers the kingdom up which the resurrection has not happened yet but in the future.
