8 How to “Watch” for Jesus’ Coming - Mark 13:32–37 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How should Christians watch for Christ's return? What does Jesus actually mean when He commands us to "keep watch"? In Mark 13:32–37, Jesus gives His disciples a final and repeated command concerning His Second Coming: "Keep Watch!" But this passage raises an important question: If no one knows the day or hour—not the angels, and not even the Son—what does it actually mean to be ready for Jesus' return? In this sermon, we work carefully through Mark 13:32–37, with connections to Matthew 24:32–35
7 The End Is Near—But What Does Near Mean? Mark 13:28-31 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this in-depth expository sermon on Mark 13:28–31, we examine Jesus' parable of the fig tree and the meaning of His statement that His coming is "near." What does "near" actually mean? Can Christians know when Christ will return? What is the significance of the fig tree, summer, harvest, judgment, and the phrase "this generation will certainly not pass away"? Rather than trying to calculate the date of Christ's return, Jesus calls His followers to something deeper: certainty, readiness, encour
6 What Will Happen When Jesus Returns? | Mark 13:24–27 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What will actually happen when Jesus Christ returns? Who are the mysterious "powers of the heavens" that will be shaken at His Second Coming? And what does Jesus' teaching in Mark 13:24–27 tell us about the Tribulation, final judgment, the rapture, the resurrection, and the return of Christ? In this message, we take a deep dive into Jesus' stunning prophecy in the Olivet Discourse and examine His description of the glorious Second Coming. Jesus says that "the Son of Man" will come in the clouds
How to Be a Great Thinker - 2 Peter 3:1-3 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What would it take to become a truly great thinker—not by the world's standards, but by God's? In 2 Peter 3, the apostle writes with deep affection to stir something in you—a way of thinking that will protect you from being deceived and draw you into deeper and deeper closeness with God. This sermon on 2 Peter 3:1–3 explores what it means to develop a mind governed by Scripture rather than by the desires of the flesh. Peter calls believers to "pure thinking"—not merely thinking about pure subjec
5 What Jesus Meant by the Abomination of Desolation - Mark 13:14-23 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why does Jesus tell His followers to run when the "abomination of desolation" appears? Can you outrun God's judgment—and if God's wrath is not directed at His people, why does Jesus tell them to flee and pray? Jesus moves from the "beginning of pains" to the terrifying period of tribulation associated with the abomination of desolation. In the Olivet Discourse, we examine what the abomination of desolation means, its connection to Daniel, its partial fulfillment in the destruction of Jerusalem i
