 (1 Co 13:9-12)(9 w/12) For we know in part and we prophesy in part…for now we see in a mirror dimly” = What God provides to His people with respect to prophecy is not only incomplete (“in part”) but often a poor reflection of its reality making any consistency in accuracy when forecasting the future almost impossible (e.g., Act 21:11 w/31-33). As a result, the church functions like capricious children (v11) in her efforts to discern coming events. She is nonetheless tasked with this mission – errors and edits included, as God’s prescribed method for planning and preparation (hence 1Th 2:13-14 w/3:1-4 w/5:19-21; e.g., accuracy of weather forecasting for navy fleets on long deployment: > 14 days [<50%], 2-4 days [>90%] “The future of conflict will belong to those who can anticipate the storm and utilize it to their advantage.” - JR Cottingham, National Defense Magazine).[1]PNTM: Our ability to plan and prepare for the coming storm surrounding Jesus’ possible return in 2030 requires we not only remind ourselves of Scripture’s prophetic forecast regarding these things but also make updates or changes as we get closer and clearer. FORECAST OF EVENTS THAT COULD TAKE PLACE IN THE NEXT 220-272 WEEKS (on a probability scale of 1-10)1. (9/10) Christ will return to Jerusalem [Mt. of Olives] from the sky above in apocalyptic fashion on an unknown day and time in 2030 with His angels to gather and glorify all of history’s saints (Mat 24:25-36 [Act 1:11]; Luk 21:25-32; Zec 14:4-9; 1Th 4:13-18; 2Pe 3:8 [Isa 46:10];[2] Act 2:17 w/Gal 4:4-6 “fullness of time” = consummation of the [prior] ages [epochs] w/Heb 9:26 “consummation of the ages” [which began at Christ’s death in 30 AD]). 2. (9/10) Christ’s return will also mean the immediate and fiery destruction of Satan and his global army of God-and-gospel rebels who will make an unsuccessful attempt to exterminate the tiny remnant of Jesus Jews who exist in Jersualem and a small church/churches in the world (Zec 14:1-3 and Rev 20:7-10 [9 “camp of the saints” = Gentile Jesus Jews in a small church/churches in the world; “beloved city” = Hebrew Jesus Jews in Jerusalem] and 2Th 2:7-10 w/Mat 16:18 w/2Pe 3:9 w/Rom 11:25 [no more Gentiles are turning to Christ and becoming Jesus Jews] w/26-28 [Luk 13:35, 15:11-32 = Some Hebrews in Jerusalem turn to Christ and become Jesus Jews at/close to His return] w/1Ki 19:14 w/18:4, 13 [also 19:18]; Consider also: 1) Jesus seems to hint at the idea of only a few/tiny remnant of saved in the end by His question in (Luk 18:8). 2) Jesus and Peter both connect His return to the Flood – an event which saved only eight people (Mat 24:37; 1Pe 3:20 w/2Pe 3:3-9 [mention of God’s patience in both seems to suggest we also view the small number of those delivered from His first extinction event as representative of those delivered in His second]).3) God’s deliverance of only a tiny remnant is a predominant theme across redemptive history (Gen 6-9 [Noah and his family in re: to the Flood]; Gen 45:7 [Joseph and his bros/Israel in re: to the global famine]; 2Ki 19:30-31 [Judah in re: to the Assyrian invasion]; Isa 10:20-22 [Israel in re: to the Assyrian invasion]; Ezr 9:8-15 [Judah/Israel in re: to the Babylonian invasion]; Jer 23:1-6 [Jesus Jews in re: to Israel’s apostasy]). 3. (9/10) Christ’s return will likewise mean the fiery destruction of this universe, the final judgment of humans and angels, the wicked being eternally resigned to the lake of fire and the righteous receiving eternal life in the new heavens and earth (2Pe 3:1-13; Rev 20:11-22:16; 1Co 6:3; 2Co 5:9-10). 4. (9/10) Christ’s return and its ensuing cosmic catastrophes will surprise the majority of earth’s inhabitants whose present and future outlook on their wicked way of life will be superlatively positive (Luk 17:26-30; 1Th 5:1-5 “darkness” = Wickedness as the way of life will be popular and prospering causing the majority to miss the bad omens in their midst). The bad omens signaling the soon return of Christ (missed by the majority of the world) will include:1) great apostasy among true churches and the prevalence of false gospels, teachers and churches (Mat 24:10-13; e.g., Christianity and her teachers, the FAG).2) there is only a small number of Jesus Jews left on planet earth and conversion efforts among Gentles in the world have stalled (again 2Pe 3:9; Rom 11:25; Luk 18:8). 3) the (possible) conversion of Hebrews in Jersualem to Jesus Jews before His return (again Rom 11:26-27). 4) global agreement to persecute and kill Jesus Jews – including betrayal by biological family members (Mat 24:9; Luk 21:16-17; Rev 20:9). 5) the biblical gospel (MCG) of the Jesus Jews will be recovered and proclaimed as a testimony to the whole world/all the nations against their false gospels (e.g., FAG) (Mat 24:14 “testimony” = Witness to the truth/true gospel in the face of opposition – most specifically, religious/gospel ...
