About this episode
Did Matthew 24 already happen? And if so, what does that mean for Revelation?
Many readers assume these passages describe future, literal cosmic events—but is that how Scripture itself uses this language?
By examining the Old Testament background behind phrases like “the sun darkened,” “the moon turned to blood,” and “stars falling from heaven,” Matt shows how biblical prophecy often uses symbolic, covenantal language to describe divine judgment.
If we read these texts incorrectly, we don’t just miss details—we miss the meaning.
In this video:
-What Jesus actually meant in Matthew 24
-How Revelation uses Old Testament imagery
-Why “cosmic collapse” language isn’t always literal
-A preterist reading of prophetic fulfillment
This is Part 3 of A Preterist View of the Olivet Discourse
