Called Back To The Old

And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Matthew 24:10

If this verse today was an item on a checklist for the end time, then we could checkmark it without the slightest hesitation. However, these things have all been happening since the verse was written down by Matthew way back in the first century A.D. So, any other signs of the times to watch for to clarify the when? Wars and rumors of war? Check. Earthquakes in various places? Check. Abounding lawlessness, false prophets, famines and pestilences? You bet! So, are we there yet? What is an "abomination of desolation"? Should that have capital letters? When we get to verse 15, we are brought to a halt. How can we know those final years have begun if we don't even know what the thing is we are looking for? It is fun that as we get this far in the first gospel of the New Testament, we are called back to a prophet of the Old Testament for further research.

Dear Daniel, what did you have to say about this abomination of desolation?

Love in Christ Jesus to you this morning!
