2BeLike Christ You need to take time to explain to people that have never heard this message, 5 minutes is NOT enough time also the word of God should not be rushed & cut short like your message
Thanks for your input... I've already completed a 1.5 hour study of Matthew 24 with 20+ pages of thorough notes that you can download for free... here is a link th-cam.com/video/clI9Fzks8G0/w-d-xo.html
I get your point but a lot of people, especially young people are drawn to shorter videos. This is a good way to get people interested in the word of Jesus and I’m pretty sure that when they do open their eyes that they will look into Jesus’s word more in depth.
The man is giving you an overview of the Scriptures, It’s up to you to go and search.. He also said, you could go to his TH-cam channel. He is not the Bible, you need to go to the Bible, read and study to make sure he correct in his teachings…
After staying up all night doom scrolling through tik tok, I found a comment in a video referencing MATTHEW 24. I got curious, and it lead me to this video. I love the structure in which you present scripture. Its the perfect primer. Thank you so much!!
All KJV--> Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation :30 the Son of man coming in the clouds. Mark 13:24 ...after that tribulation :26 the Son of man coming in the clouds. The Lord Jesus is coming back once contrary to popular opinion.
Thank you for your love for Christ by helping others understand the gospel. I am an ordained minister and this helps me to break down the scriptures to others… 🙏🏾
Very good...I've been reading Josephus the last few years and it makes Math 24much clearer. I tell my kids the same read history especially biblical history.
@@D34DxChevy No I meant that the times we're in are like what Jesus said it would be like when He returns. He said when you see these things happening look up for your redemption is nigh
Thank you for your videos it had helped me greatly with understanding the bible. The 5 minutes are great when i wany a lil summary of the chapter. But then you also have like an hour video of the chapters when i want to ubderstand more. Know that you are doing the good work. Great structure in all of your videos
I want to encourage your desire to share Scripture especially these important prophetic ones. Mat24 links with prophecies of Daniel, Revelation involving the 2nd Coming of Christ and the end of the world In the context of Mat 24 the disciples weren't quite ready for being blown away by news of Temple being destroyed so Jesus cloaked it in a message for us now The destruction of Jerusalem is prophetic of how conditions will be before Christ returns after the gospel has been preached to all the world
The first part I agree. But first needs to come the destruction is a crux. I have a question for you. Jesus is telling in Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so likewise shall the coming of the Son of man be. In Matthew 24:21 Jesus is describing the worst times ever. How can the days of Noah be in the worst times ever?
@@marcelfiechter7436 people’s thought S were evil continually…. Bad enough for judgement of destruction…having read about conditions in siege of Jerusalem expanded globally in the end times we will experience French Revolution mayhem on a global level
@@Gladi80r Were there French Revolution mayhem in the days of Noah? Luke 17:27 Likewise also in the days of Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built. That doesn't sound like mayhem.
@@marcelfiechter7436 read into this carefully: in WW2 German family men and women left their families on a daily basis where life want on as usual and they worked in the Jewish death camps My father and uncle were Nazis and they thought Hitler was a good thing ( because they were indoctrinated to believe Jews were less than human) so we need to understand Bible in context
I tried to find the answer why the days are so fast and now , it is almost a middle of the year and it seems Christmas it is just like yesterday. I was not the only one who observed this changing of time. Days fly so quickly and I started to age. Then i found in Matthew 24 verse 22. That the days are shortened in order for us to be saved. Literally and spiritually. Hmm curious is this verse applies today..where wars , climate change, tragedy upon tragedy..Does God make our day goes faster so we as believers in Christ will not feel the future suffering .....please let me know your thoughts.
Why do so many people believe in a pre tribulation rapture, but this says a post tribulation rapture is going to take place… nothing in the Bible says believers will be raptured before the tribulation….
It's because of the Jewish wedding customs. The father would pick the damsel/bride for his son and pay the mohar the price of the bride and the son would propose with a glass of wine and if she drank then she was saying yes to the marriage then he would leave her with her parents and with a lot of gifts and he would return to his father's house to prepare a place for her and him which would take about two years and he never knew the day or hr he was to return for his bride except the father. When the father told him it was time to get the bride he showed up in the night and shouted for her while the brides maides lit the path way for her to him. Then he took her back to his father's house. So this is where they get the pretribulation rapture because at the second coming Jesus returns with his saints in wrath and jesus said joy I at a wedding not a funeral. If you know the Jewish customs of the weddings then it's much easier to understand scripture. Also weddings were usually called the feast of trumpets and 6 short shofar blast came before the final long blast ! Also the 7 trumpet judgements in revaluation are blown by angels. The call of the bride the lord descends with a shout and the voice of the arkangel and the Trump of God. So the trumpet isn't blown by an angel it's blown by the father himself. Pretty cool hu?
Let's take Matthew 24. Jesus told his coming will be as in the days of Noah. How is it possible to have the days of Noah in the worst times ever? Could it be Matthew 24 is not chronologically? Remember Jesus answered 2 questions. Because he answered the question of the end first doesn't mean the end comes chronologically first. He just answered it first. And with the mentioning of the days of Noah he made it clear which answer chronologically comes first.
@@marcelfiechter7436 Matthew 24:37-39. "as it were in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. And they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. " There are two components to this answer. 1) The spiritual condition of man. The people on the planet in the days of Noah were exceedingly wicked. Every thought of the human heart was evil. This is mostly due to the Nephilim that were taking over the planet. Their fathers (the rebellious angels who left their natural habitat and had sex with the daughters of men) gave them a spirit of evil and wickedness. Those souls because they were half human and half fallen angel, could not be saved. So the flesh that they inhabited had to be destroyed. This means that in the last days, love of many will grow cold. People's hearts will be turned to think nothing but evil and wicked thoughts. You can see this shaping up with just the Israel/Palestine conflict. There is no love loss between those groups. They are the example of what is to come on a mass scale. 2) The state of the economy of man. People don't plan to get married if the world is ending as described with the judgements in Revelation. There is no sense to form a long term plan for your life if you are living under conditions such as Revelation 6:15. Kings of the earth, along with everyone else are hiding in caves and among the rocks because the wrath of God is so great. So that means that the economy will be functioning so that people are not aware of the sudden destruction that is coming upon them. They can plan their life as they always have, not giving a care about the things of God. This is how we know the Tribulation of the End Times comes upon people suddenly. Most of the world is just carrying on, watching the various wars on their tv. Plotting to kill Jews and overthrow Christians at every chance they get. Then suddenly, the world changes over night (like a thief) and they wonder why world war 3 has broken out.
Actually the people who go through the Tribulation are found in Matthew 24:30. They are mourning at the end of it. When Christ finally returns, are they over joyed? Rejoicing to finally see their Savior? NO, they are mourning and repenting that they didn't believe sooner and that they just witnessed the greatest hell on earth from the previous 7 years.
He must be busy or doesn't want to go there? Matthew24 definitely talks about the 2nd Coming. All KJV, verse 29 Immediately after the tribulation, verse 30 the Son of man coming in the clouds, verse 31 with a great sound of a trumpet(last). Mark 13 same thing, verse 24 ...after that tribulation, verse 26 the Son of man coming in the clouds. The Lord Jesus is coming back once contrary to popular opinion. 🙏
It talks about the second half of the Tribulation and the distribution of the bowl judgments. Basically Jesus is saying that God needs to pour out his bowl judgments toward the end of the 7 years, because if he poured them out at the mid-point of 3.5 years, then no flesh would survive the Tribulation. This is supported by the account of Revelation. The seal judgements kill 25% of man, and the trumpet judgments kill another 33% of mankind. This is a combined 58% of the population that dies during just the first half. If you look at the bowl judgments, they cover all the earth (unlike most of the trumpet judgements that only cover one third). The bowls the most horrible part of the judgment. If God did not pour them out at the end, no one would survive. Basically the bowl judgments come down to this. The planet will be 150 degrees and all the water sources will be filled with blood. How long do you think people are going to survive that situation? Exactly. Not very long at all.
Contrary to other comments, I believe people that aren't familiar with Scripture may be left wanting more after having watched it. If you really believe, then be prepared to the best of your ability.
In season and to the hill is when Jesus said He is coming so thats every year four 3 months, in God’s kingdom which is laid out a long time ago on the ground with IT’s face waiting to turn to you!!!!!!
Initially Jesus was speaking of his pesent day in the flesh, and then he did go on to the end of time, but was very clear that no one knew or would know the date and hour? He was also clear that the end could come at anytime (St Paul expanded and clarified discussion on this), but not to imagine that you could actually predict it, because it may not come in your lifetime no matter how bad things get. In two thousand years almost every generation has thought surely theirs was the endtimes! Even so, it could be tomorrow, and that is why Jesus said to "Keep on the Watch because you know not the day or the hour" - this is a warning to keep your repentance up to date, and never willfully sinning because Jesus is not coming the second time to be forgiving sins. He will only look for you if you are earnestly/sincerely looking for him. The reason why Jesus can do this way is because he made it clear to his Apostles that the end will not come until the Word of God has been preached to the satisfaction of True God. That means no human will have any excuse at that time for any neglect of repentance and trying not to sin willfully.
I believe there is a misunderstanding concerning Mt.24:14, namely, the incorrect use of the word rendered "this," by most, if not all, readers of Mt.24. In fact, Strong's claim this Original word is "toúto," which speaks to something in the previous context, not after this word appears in the present passage. This passage, without deeper investigation of "this/toúto," seems to lead a person to think that the Gospel of Jesus Christ must be a heralded as the witness to all nations before the End can come. I, for one, don't understand the passage of vs.14 as such, and here's why. The context previous and following speaks of false christs, false prophets bringing gospels which mislead many. The Gospel of Jesus Christ brings light and life eternal to those God gives the faith of Jesus Christ. ( Fallen man is faithless, Mt.17:17 and has no faith to "place in Jesus" so as to save himself by so doing ) With that in mind, an Internet search reveals that the Bible has been translated, as of 2020, into 704 languages.. in effect, the witness has been preached in the whole world being the only requirement to end this world this way has been met. This world is ready for destruction being this requirement, I believe, has been and is continuing to fill the world with the Bible in every language there is. On the other hand, false gospels have flourished in the world since the beginning. That gospel brings darkness and death. The word "toúto" can also be translated "That"... "That" gospel of the kingdom ( the false gospel ) is correct to the previous context and the context which follows as is "This" gospel which hastens the End. False prophets adulterate the Word of God while the Bible, being taught us out of its pages by the Holy Spirit, voids any and all word of mouth false witness the false prophets bring. This distribution of the Bible throughout the languages of the world in our time also fulfills Dan.12:4. "Knowledge will increase"... The true knowledge of God found only on the printed page as taught by the Holy Spirit. Now, attendant to this increase of knowledge, for example, God declares that His mighty wonders by which He brought the Hebrews out of Egypt, can be properly learned straight from His Word, rather than from Hollywood. So then, I must conclude that the Original word "toúto," speaks of the perverted gospels brought into the world by false christs and false prophets. Then, as in the days of Noah, preaching righteousness falls on deaf ears and all who will be saved, like Noah and his family, have been sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise to escape this world alive.
Is there a pre tribulation . Matthew talks about Jesus return after tribulation begins . I get too many contradictory statements regarding rapture or the taking up
@@skywatcher7777 No doubt about it. Pretrib rapture is a false doctrine dreamt up by a Jesuit Priest, Francisco Ribera in the 1500's to confuse Protestants. Many others furthered it. Scripture has been manipulated by to fit the narrative.
Matthew 24 is for people who are not raptured. It's actually talking to unbelievers. The reason we know this is found in verse 30. What are the people on the earth doing when Christ comes through the clouds? That's correct, they are mourning. Not rejoicing to see their Lord like a Christian who has just been saved reaction. Mourning like they rejected Jesus at an earlier time and they are deeply sorry to see him.
@@seanc2788 Mark 13 is a parallel passage to Matthew 24. Jesus is quoted in Mark 13:37 “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.” Jesus is speaking to his elect. His believers. That’s why he says in mark 13: 20 20 “And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.” He also is quoted again with the same statement in Matthew 24:22. The Gospels are written to those who are already saved. You can’t understand the gospel without being lead from the Holy Ghost.
@@skywatcher7777 I thought this was a Bible study on Matthew 24? Don't deflect away, stay with the topic and the verse. Let the truth confront you. Mark 13:5-31 states pretty much the exact same story as Matthew 24:4-35. Funny how Matthew emphasizes the reaction of the people left on the earth, while Mark omits it. Maybe because the book of Matthew starts off with the genealogy of Jesus, and Mark does not. I wonder why Matthew took the time to trace Abraham to David and from David to Jesus? I wonder if he was writing that particular gospel to both Christians and unbelieving Jews? But either way, Mark basically recounts the same story. Instead of giving the detail of the people on the earth in mourning like Matthew does, he focus on the elect whom Christ sends his angels out to the four corners of the earth to bring to Israel. Versus 14-31 are still in the same context. He has not switched over who He is speaking to yet. So that means while Zechariah 12:10-14, Matthew 23:39 and Matthew 24:30 are being fulfilled, His angels are scooping up the Jews from all over the globe to bring them home to their land. After all the point to those scriptures being fulfilled is to turn Israel as a nation to s their true Messiah. Right now they don't believe that Jesus is their Messiah and they are still waiting for who that will be. When Christ sets up his throne on the Temple Mount and rules over his people, they all need to see it that way. Otherwise, you might as well throw out the Millennial Kingdom. No need to go through all that business about David having a king on the throne forever. No need to have the nations of the earth come and bow down before Jesus in Jerusalem, and bring their treasures and wealth to the nation of Israel, as was prophesied long ago. Matthew 13:36-51 and Mark 13:32-37 are parallels. This is talking to the church who are believers before the rapture takes place. SO maybe once you study better, you can see the difference between the two discussions. It's called rightly dividing the Word of God. Looks like I got lots of Holy Ghost.
If “this generation” in MT 23, means their generation, when Jesus was foretelling the destruction of their temple to those Pharisees and Scribes; and recorded history confirms that it does; then why does “this generation” in MT 24, not mean their generation when Jesus was speaking to His disciples about the destruction of their temple, (same one), and His coming?
Because the subject was two different points in time. THUS Generation in Matt. 23 was about THE GENERATION who would receive of God's Judgments because of their rejection of God and their killings of the Prophets, hence 70 AD would be THAT GENERATION Jesus was speaking about. But in Matt. 24:32-35 THAT Generation is the generation that sees ALL PF THESE THINGS come to pass, well WHAT THINGS? The things Jesus spoke of in Matt. 24:4-30, the last THING bein the Sun and Moon going DARK. So, when does that happen? Rev. 8, the Fourth Trump sees the Sun & Moon go dark, that THATB GENERATION can only be from the 70th week end times. Why can't you grasp that Jesus can speak of MULTIPLE GENERATIONS?
@@MrRondonmon Your mistake was assuming that "the subject was two different points in time." This assumption must come from a preconceived idea that is not in the text anywhere! And all the things Jesus said were to occur were related to the felling of that temple. And then, "Immediately after the tribulation of those days;" WHAT DAYS? Those tribulation days that was the siege of Jerusalem that lasted 3 1/2 years, ending in 70AD. And IMMEDIATELY after that occurrence the coming of the Lord! " then will appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory; 31 and he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. The assumption of a two points in time in MT 24 is completely false, and is nowhere in the texts.
@@makarov138 70 AD was not End Times. This just makes you look real bad. The Sun & Moon event is Rev. 8, it will burn 1/3 of the worlds trees, Pssstt, look up Apophis, it will hit on April 13, 2029, that is the DOTL God's Wrath.
The words " this generation " "the temple at Jerusalem even though it was in reality destroyed and Jews persecuted. Its all parables. Jesus taught in parables. The temple is not jus a building but is humanity without God. Not even one evil person will survive judgement. Not even a single stone will be left that wont be turned. The famine is not of bread of food, but that of the word. The war is the spiritual wars of doctrines ,values , and beliefs during our times. In short no man can understand scripture by literally taking those words as they mean in this life. Jesus would use the things that we see and understand to reflect on celestial ones. Jus praying that God helps us understand these things by His Holy Spirit.
@@makarov138 Where is the historical proof the sun and the moon went dark in 70AD? Where is the historical proof the stars fell from heaven in 70AD? Where is the historical proof Jesus showed his sign in the clouds in 70AD? Where is the historical proof people went missing in 70AD? Why wasn't John missing? He wrote his Revelation later than 70AD around 96AD on the isle of Patmos. How is that possible?
The following is five undeniable irrefutable reasons proving Matthew 24 is for only one time frame. #1. Only one main event is referred to, Mt.24:2. Though when this happened, the city was also destroyed with thousands of Jews killed. #2. Only one end is referred to, Mt.24:6, 14. #3. All the signs are grouped together as referring to one event not two or more, Mt.24:33. #4. The time frame “this generation” especially when taken in context can’t possibly be referring to more than one time frame. See also Mt.12:41-45, 23:36, Lu.11:31,32,50,51, Ac.2:40. #5. The judgments declared in Mt.21:40-41, 22:1-7, 23:34-38 are also about this gigantic single event. Did Jesus totally ignore, or did He answer the disciple’s questions? Did He trick or mislead them?
Hello! Just one add’l piece of info. Josephus wrote that over a million people died during the siege of Jerusalem. Partly due to that being the time of Passover celebration. That was a lot more people than I initially thought also considering that I was never taught about what happened during 70 ad growing up.
Sure. Except this is not what Matthew 24 is about. it is about the second coming of Christ. He is talking to the disciples but generalizing to Israel. You really do not need to know about extra Biblical things per se. What you need to know is how this book fits with the other books in the Bible regarding end times prophecy. You also need to know that different dispensations are occurring from the law to grace. When you understand this, rightly dividing the word of truth, you will see that most books of the Bible are addressed to Israel and others are addressed to believers saved by grace through faith. He is talking about Israel enduring the tribulation and the antiChrist and those allied with him/ her turning over those undergoing the tribulation to take the mark of the antichrist or be martyred.
Why do futurists use Mat 24:36 "But of THAT day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only"; as though Jesus was speaking of a distant time 2000 or more years after what He was explaining already? These people add to scripture to push the futurist idea that half of the Olivet Discourse is divided into separate timeframes when it was NOT! It ALL happened 40 years later when the old covenant came fully when Jesus came in the clouds and destroyed the temple. Titus and the Romans did not want the temple destroyed and could not have if they wanted. Jesus did it from the clouds of wrath which was to come!
Wrong!!!! Verse 5 says that Jesus answered his disciples and told them that many will come in his name saying that he is the Christ and will deceive many!!

Sounds like you are confused man. How are you going to ignore that Christ said then the coming would happen. This is for all people. To say this is spoken to just the apostles is foolish. Read the entirety of this chapter and and the next and get understanding. You have dropped the ball tremendously
I did a verse by verse study of this chapter with 20+ pages of notes working through verse by verse. So, your assumption that I'm unfamiliar with the surrounding context is uninformed. I'd be interested in hearing your understanding of the text, taking all verses into account??? Don't just come on here claiming other people are confused without offering something constructive.
Not just the coming would happen. Also as in the days of Noah and the worst times ever. This is something still to come for everybody. Not just for Israel. In fact every verse in Matthew 24 from the verse 4 onward is for everybody. And it's still coming. Jesus answered two questions. What is the sign of your coming and what is the sign of the end. Jesus answered first the question of the end and then the question of his coming. That doesn't mean the first answer comes chronologically fist. Jesus told later it will be as in the days of Noah. The days of Noah can't be when the worst days ever happen Matthew 24:21. This way he answered also the chronologically order. The second answer comes chronologically first. This means Matthew 24:27 to the end comes first and then comes Matthew 24:4-26. In Matthew 24:29 the sun, the moon and the stars darken. This is the day of the Lord. It's written 7 times in the Old Testament. In all 7 stories the sun/moon darkens first and then comes the pain, the judgment. The judgment is 7 years and 75 days. Jesus takes his people out before the judgment. And this could happen any second now. We all saw what happened in 2021/2022. We are on the brink. Another interesting point. Now nobody is watching for a Messiah. It's as in the days of Noah, nobody needs a Messiah. Everybody is his own God. That's why Jesus doesn't mention to be careful of a false Messiah in Matthew 24:27 to the end. Not one time. That's the time we are living in now. There is no need for this warning. But after the rapture this world will turn very ugly. And people will start to watch out for a Messiah. That's why Jesus is warning many times in Matthew 24:4 to 25 to be careful of a false Messiah.
About Matthew 24, the Greek word used for "pass" in these verses is "παρέλθῃ" (parelthē), which can also be translated as "enter into" or "pass into." This broader range of meanings allows for an interpretation that the generation would not enter into or experience the fullness of the fulfillment until all the described events are accomplished. Similar to how Israel could not pass the wilderness trial and had to wander for 40 years and fail to enter God's promises, the first century Israel failed to enter into God's promises for them by rejecting Christ and his apostles and thus were sent to wander for 2000+ years until a future generation is able to pass God's requirements through faith in the Messiah. This understanding explains why the first century Israel did not pass, but failed to pass, and thus awaits future fulfillment. However, given that the generation of Israel was poised in the first century to have the potential to receive Jesus Christ and usher in the kingdom on Earth had they received Him (Acts 3:20), the events described in Matthew 24 may have begun to take place, but not everything did. Certainly God's elect were not gathered from the four winds (Matthew 24:31) and Christ did not appear with great glory to cause all the nations on earth to mourn (Matthew 24:30), which corresponds to Revelation 1:7 “every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all peoples on earth will mourn because of him." Those that pierced him, as per Zechariah 12:10, are the nation of Israel collectively, and this is clearly speaking about the 2nd coming of Christ, which no Christian should try to argue is a historical event, as we are still waiting the coming of the Lord and our gathering together unto him. 2 Thessalonians 2:1 "Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him (our blessed hope), we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us-whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter-asserting that the Day of the Lord (book of Revelation, nightmare on earth) is at hand." If those who preach 70 AD are correct, then the Day of the Lord (destruction of Jerusalem?) was absolutely at hand when Paul was writing. However, the Day of the Lord, which is what Joel speaks of in Joel 2, is what Peter quotes in Acts 2 explaining to the Jews what is happening. However if you read Joel 2 carefully it says starting in verse 27 "Then you will know that I am in Israel, that I am the Lord your God, and that there is no other; never again will my people be shamed. “And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams" So the fulfillment of Joel 2 happens after Israel is reconciled fully to God and are never again put to shame. The nation of Israel was put to horrific shame in 70 AD and God is not presently dwelling with Israel in their midst, as Israel has forsaken God and rejected His Messiah and spent 2000 years in scattered exile and judgment. Joel 2 was about to come to pass in the first century, the beginnings of it were evidenced by the pouring out of God's Spirit, but the fulfillment of it did not take place in full in the first century, but was postponed to a future generation. Peter, acknowledging that people will scoff at this idea says: 2 Peter 3:4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” Peter goes on to explain that if you want to understand the longsuffering of God and why these events did not take place; 2 Peter 3:15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. Paul's letters explain why God did not bring upon the nation of Israel in the first century the completion of their prophesied end times, because Israel fell (Romans 11:11). God will not bring about the fulfillment of the promises made to that nation until they are good and ready to receive all that God has for them, and that begins by them acknowledging Jesus Christ as their Messiah. So the obstinance and refusal of Israel has benefited the world for 2000 years, putting a pause on Israel's prophetic program until "the fullness of the Gentiles be come in" (Romans 11:25). Then God will return and save Israel "as it is written" in the scriptures of the prophets and as Jesus himself said would happen.
There is one big mistake in your interpretation. Joel 2:28 And afterward will I pour out. Take care what - And afterward - means in the prophetic. In the vision it's afterward. That's not necessarily chronologically. To find that out you need the context. Read the whole chapter and 2 and chapter 3. The sun/moon darken is three times. In Joel 2:10 the sun and the moon shall be dark and the stars shall withdraw their shining. Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood. Joel 3:15 The sun and moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light. If you read the context of all this three verses you will see it's always the Day of the Lord. It is three times the same event shown from a different angle. The first one is for the Israelits, the second one is for the believers and the third one is for the unbelievers. The same event - sun/moon darken - is also in Isaiah 13, Amos 8, Ecclesiastes 12:2 and Ezekiel 32:7. And it's the same event in Matthew 24:29-31 and it's the same event in the 6th seal Rev 6:12-17.

The man is giving you an overview of the Scriptures, It’s up to you to go and search.. He also said, you could go to his TH-cam channel. He is not the Bible, you need to go to the Bible, read and study to make sure he correct in his teachings…
yes
He’s not suppose to read the entire Bible to u. How about u study it yourself
Jesus loves his children ❤
We Love you. Jesus loves you. God bless this commenter.
Jesus is always watching us and protecting us❤🙏
Amen.
After staying up all night doom scrolling through tik tok, I found a comment in a video referencing MATTHEW 24. I got curious, and it lead me to this video.
I love the structure in which you present scripture. Its the perfect primer. Thank you so much!!
Thank you lord Jesus. 🙏❤❤ I'm watching for all the signs and rapture. ❤
All KJV--> Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation :30 the Son of man coming in the clouds. Mark 13:24 ...after that tribulation :26 the Son of man coming in the clouds. The Lord Jesus is coming back once contrary to popular opinion.
Love the breakdown!!! Thank you!!! JESUS IS DEFINITELY NEAR!! ❤
God be praised, one of the few who don't twist scripture to support falsehood. Amen.
Good advice on history. One doesn't know much about any topic without knowing its history.
Thank you for your love for Christ by helping others understand the gospel. I am an ordained minister and this helps me to break down the scriptures to others… 🙏🏾
Very good...I've been reading Josephus the last few years and it makes Math 24much clearer. I tell my kids the same read history especially biblical history.
Jesus was talking about now
Agreed
No man not the angels in heaven nor the son will know. Only the father
@@D34DxChevy No I meant that the times we're in are like what Jesus said it would be like when He returns. He said when you see these things happening look up for your redemption is nigh

Sounds good! Proper context! Nice!
Now, yes

I want to encourage your desire to share Scripture especially these important prophetic ones. Mat24 links with prophecies of Daniel, Revelation involving the 2nd Coming of Christ and the end of the world
In the context of Mat 24 the disciples weren't quite ready for being blown away by news of Temple being destroyed so Jesus cloaked it in a message for us now
The destruction of Jerusalem is prophetic of how conditions will be before Christ returns after the gospel has been preached to all the world
The first part I agree. But first needs to come the destruction is a crux. I have a question for you. Jesus is telling in Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so likewise shall the coming of the Son of man be. In Matthew 24:21 Jesus is describing the worst times ever. How can the days of Noah be in the worst times ever?
@@marcelfiechter7436 people’s thought S were evil continually…. Bad enough for judgement of destruction…having read about conditions in siege of Jerusalem expanded globally in the end times we will experience French Revolution mayhem on a global level
@@Gladi80r Were there French Revolution mayhem in the days of Noah? Luke 17:27 Likewise also in the days of Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built. That doesn't sound like mayhem.
@@marcelfiechter7436 read into this carefully: in WW2 German family men and women left their families on a daily basis where life want on as usual and they worked in the Jewish death camps
My father and uncle were Nazis and they thought Hitler was a good thing ( because they were indoctrinated to believe Jews were less than human) so we need to understand Bible in context
Jesus returned in 70AD.
His coming was mt. 24.
I tried to find the answer why the days are so fast and now , it is almost a middle of the year and it seems Christmas it is just like yesterday. I was not the only one who observed this changing of time. Days fly so quickly and I started to age. Then i found in Matthew 24 verse 22. That the days are shortened in order for us to be saved. Literally and spiritually. Hmm curious is this verse applies today..where wars , climate change, tragedy upon tragedy..Does God make our day goes faster so we as believers in Christ will not feel the future suffering .....please let me know your thoughts.
Why do so many people believe in a pre tribulation rapture, but this says a post tribulation rapture is going to take place… nothing in the Bible says believers will be raptured before the tribulation….
It's because of the Jewish wedding customs. The father would pick the damsel/bride for his son and pay the mohar the price of the bride and the son would propose with a glass of wine and if she drank then she was saying yes to the marriage then he would leave her with her parents and with a lot of gifts and he would return to his father's house to prepare a place for her and him which would take about two years and he never knew the day or hr he was to return for his bride except the father. When the father told him it was time to get the bride he showed up in the night and shouted for her while the brides maides lit the path way for her to him. Then he took her back to his father's house. So this is where they get the pretribulation rapture because at the second coming Jesus returns with his saints in wrath and jesus said joy I at a wedding not a funeral. If you know the Jewish customs of the weddings then it's much easier to understand scripture. Also weddings were usually called the feast of trumpets and 6 short shofar blast came before the final long blast ! Also the 7 trumpet judgements in revaluation are blown by angels. The call of the bride the lord descends with a shout and the voice of the arkangel and the Trump of God. So the trumpet isn't blown by an angel it's blown by the father himself. Pretty cool hu?
Let's take Matthew 24. Jesus told his coming will be as in the days of Noah. How is it possible to have the days of Noah in the worst times ever? Could it be Matthew 24 is not chronologically? Remember Jesus answered 2 questions. Because he answered the question of the end first doesn't mean the end comes chronologically first. He just answered it first. And with the mentioning of the days of Noah he made it clear which answer chronologically comes first.
Pretrib rapture is a false doctrine dreamt up by a Jesuit Priest, Francisco Ribera in the 1500's to confuse Protestants. Many names furthered it.
@@marcelfiechter7436 Matthew 24:37-39. "as it were in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. And they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. "
There are two components to this answer.
1) The spiritual condition of man. The people on the planet in the days of Noah were exceedingly wicked. Every thought of the human heart was evil. This is mostly due to the Nephilim that were taking over the planet. Their fathers (the rebellious angels who left their natural habitat and had sex with the daughters of men) gave them a spirit of evil and wickedness. Those souls because they were half human and half fallen angel, could not be saved. So the flesh that they inhabited had to be destroyed. This means that in the last days, love of many will grow cold. People's hearts will be turned to think nothing but evil and wicked thoughts. You can see this shaping up with just the Israel/Palestine conflict. There is no love loss between those groups. They are the example of what is to come on a mass scale.
2) The state of the economy of man. People don't plan to get married if the world is ending as described with the judgements in Revelation. There is no sense to form a long term plan for your life if you are living under conditions such as Revelation 6:15. Kings of the earth, along with everyone else are hiding in caves and among the rocks because the wrath of God is so great. So that means that the economy will be functioning so that people are not aware of the sudden destruction that is coming upon them. They can plan their life as they always have, not giving a care about the things of God.
This is how we know the Tribulation of the End Times comes upon people suddenly. Most of the world is just carrying on, watching the various wars on their tv. Plotting to kill Jews and overthrow Christians at every chance they get. Then suddenly, the world changes over night (like a thief) and they wonder why world war 3 has broken out.
Actually the people who go through the Tribulation are found in Matthew 24:30. They are mourning at the end of it. When Christ finally returns, are they over joyed? Rejoicing to finally see their Savior? NO, they are mourning and repenting that they didn't believe sooner and that they just witnessed the greatest hell on earth from the previous 7 years.
Can someone explain to me, Jesus said these things would take place during the disciples generation. But they didn't. I am missing something.
This could be the best Bible break down but the fact you have triangle images warn “red flag!”
Does any of the verse in Matthew 24
talks about Second Coming of Christ..?
&
What does Matthew 24:22 specifically talks about?
Please answer brother
He must be busy or doesn't want to go there? Matthew24 definitely talks about the 2nd Coming. All KJV, verse 29 Immediately after the tribulation, verse 30 the Son of man coming in the clouds, verse 31 with a great sound of a trumpet(last). Mark 13 same thing, verse 24 ...after that tribulation, verse 26 the Son of man coming in the clouds. The Lord Jesus is coming back once contrary to popular opinion. 🙏
It talks about the second half of the Tribulation and the distribution of the bowl judgments. Basically Jesus is saying that God needs to pour out his bowl judgments toward the end of the 7 years, because if he poured them out at the mid-point of 3.5 years, then no flesh would survive the Tribulation. This is supported by the account of Revelation. The seal judgements kill 25% of man, and the trumpet judgments kill another 33% of mankind. This is a combined 58% of the population that dies during just the first half. If you look at the bowl judgments, they cover all the earth (unlike most of the trumpet judgements that only cover one third). The bowls the most horrible part of the judgment. If God did not pour them out at the end, no one would survive. Basically the bowl judgments come down to this. The planet will be 150 degrees and all the water sources will be filled with blood. How long do you think people are going to survive that situation? Exactly. Not very long at all.
Contrary to other comments, I believe people that aren't familiar with Scripture may be left wanting more after having watched it. If you really believe, then be prepared to the best of your ability.
Greetings. The end happened in that generation...
In season and to the hill is when Jesus said He is coming so thats every year four 3 months, in God’s kingdom which is laid out a long time ago on the ground with IT’s face waiting to turn to you!!!!!!
Initially Jesus was speaking of his pesent day in the flesh, and then he did go on to the end of time, but was very clear that no one knew or would know the date and hour? He was also clear that the end could come at anytime (St Paul expanded and clarified discussion on this), but not to imagine that you could actually predict it, because it may not come in your lifetime no matter how bad things get. In two thousand years almost every generation has thought surely theirs was the endtimes! Even so, it could be tomorrow, and that is why Jesus said to "Keep on the Watch because you know not the day or the hour" - this is a warning to keep your repentance up to date, and never willfully sinning because Jesus is not coming the second time to be forgiving sins. He will only look for you if you are earnestly/sincerely looking for him. The reason why Jesus can do this way is because he made it clear to his Apostles that the end will not come until the Word of God has been preached to the satisfaction of True God. That means no human will have any excuse at that time for any neglect of repentance and trying not to sin willfully.
I believe there is a misunderstanding concerning Mt.24:14, namely, the incorrect use of the word rendered "this," by most, if not all, readers of Mt.24. In fact, Strong's claim this Original word is "toúto," which speaks to something in the previous context, not after this word appears in the present passage. This passage, without deeper investigation of "this/toúto," seems to lead a person to think that the Gospel of Jesus Christ must be a heralded as the witness to all nations before the End can come. I, for one, don't understand the passage of vs.14 as such, and here's why. The context previous and following speaks of false christs, false prophets bringing gospels which mislead many. The Gospel of Jesus Christ brings light and life eternal to those God gives the faith of Jesus Christ. ( Fallen man is faithless, Mt.17:17 and has no faith to "place in Jesus" so as to save himself by so doing ) With that in mind, an Internet search reveals that the Bible has been translated, as of 2020, into 704 languages.. in effect, the witness has been preached in the whole world being the only requirement to end this world this way has been met. This world is ready for destruction being this requirement, I believe, has been and is continuing to fill the world with the Bible in every language there is.
On the other hand, false gospels have flourished in the world since the beginning. That gospel brings darkness and death. The word "toúto" can also be translated "That"... "That" gospel of the kingdom ( the false gospel ) is correct to the previous context and the context which follows as is "This" gospel which hastens the End. False prophets adulterate the Word of God while the Bible, being taught us out of its pages by the Holy Spirit, voids any and all word of mouth false witness the false prophets bring. This distribution of the Bible throughout the languages of the world in our time also fulfills Dan.12:4. "Knowledge will increase"... The true knowledge of God found only on the printed page as taught by the Holy Spirit. Now, attendant to this increase of knowledge, for example, God declares that His mighty wonders by which He brought the Hebrews out of Egypt, can be properly learned straight from His Word, rather than from Hollywood. So then, I must conclude that the Original word "toúto," speaks of the perverted gospels brought into the world by false christs and false prophets. Then, as in the days of Noah, preaching righteousness falls on deaf ears and all who will be saved, like Noah and his family, have been sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise to escape this world alive.
Is there a pre tribulation . Matthew talks about Jesus return after tribulation begins . I get too many contradictory statements regarding rapture or the taking up
Jesus literally says “after the tribulation”. Christians will indeed be subject to persecution.
@@skywatcher7777 No doubt about it. Pretrib rapture is a false doctrine dreamt up by a Jesuit Priest, Francisco Ribera in the 1500's to confuse Protestants. Many others furthered it. Scripture has been manipulated by to fit the narrative.
Matthew 24 is for people who are not raptured. It's actually talking to unbelievers. The reason we know this is found in verse 30. What are the people on the earth doing when Christ comes through the clouds? That's correct, they are mourning. Not rejoicing to see their Lord like a Christian who has just been saved reaction. Mourning like they rejected Jesus at an earlier time and they are deeply sorry to see him.
@@seanc2788
Mark 13 is a parallel passage to Matthew 24. Jesus is quoted in Mark 13:37 “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.”
Jesus is speaking to his elect. His believers. That’s why he says in mark 13: 20 20 “And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.” He also is quoted again with the same statement in Matthew 24:22.
The Gospels are written to those who are already saved. You can’t understand the gospel without being lead from the Holy Ghost.
@@skywatcher7777 I thought this was a Bible study on Matthew 24? Don't deflect away, stay with the topic and the verse. Let the truth confront you. Mark 13:5-31 states pretty much the exact same story as Matthew 24:4-35. Funny how Matthew emphasizes the reaction of the people left on the earth, while Mark omits it. Maybe because the book of Matthew starts off with the genealogy of Jesus, and Mark does not. I wonder why Matthew took the time to trace Abraham to David and from David to Jesus? I wonder if he was writing that particular gospel to both Christians and unbelieving Jews?
But either way, Mark basically recounts the same story. Instead of giving the detail of the people on the earth in mourning like Matthew does, he focus on the elect whom Christ sends his angels out to the four corners of the earth to bring to Israel. Versus 14-31 are still in the same context. He has not switched over who He is speaking to yet. So that means while Zechariah 12:10-14, Matthew 23:39 and Matthew 24:30 are being fulfilled, His angels are scooping up the Jews from all over the globe to bring them home to their land. After all the point to those scriptures being fulfilled is to turn Israel as a nation to s their true Messiah. Right now they don't believe that Jesus is their Messiah and they are still waiting for who that will be. When Christ sets up his throne on the Temple Mount and rules over his people, they all need to see it that way. Otherwise, you might as well throw out the Millennial Kingdom. No need to go through all that business about David having a king on the throne forever. No need to have the nations of the earth come and bow down before Jesus in Jerusalem, and bring their treasures and wealth to the nation of Israel, as was prophesied long ago.
Matthew 13:36-51 and Mark 13:32-37 are parallels. This is talking to the church who are believers before the rapture takes place. SO maybe once you study better, you can see the difference between the two discussions. It's called rightly dividing the Word of God. Looks like I got lots of Holy Ghost.
End of time i missed that bit oh I think that's what they mean by eisegesis!

If “this generation” in MT 23, means their generation, when Jesus was foretelling the destruction of their temple to those Pharisees and Scribes; and recorded history confirms that it does; then why does “this generation” in MT 24, not mean their generation when Jesus was speaking to His disciples about the destruction of their temple, (same one), and His coming?
Because the subject was two different points in time. THUS Generation in Matt. 23 was about THE GENERATION who would receive of God's Judgments because of their rejection of God and their killings of the Prophets, hence 70 AD would be THAT GENERATION Jesus was speaking about. But in Matt. 24:32-35 THAT Generation is the generation that sees ALL PF THESE THINGS come to pass, well WHAT THINGS? The things Jesus spoke of in Matt. 24:4-30, the last THING bein the Sun and Moon going DARK. So, when does that happen? Rev. 8, the Fourth Trump sees the Sun & Moon go dark, that THATB GENERATION can only be from the 70th week end times.
Why can't you grasp that Jesus can speak of MULTIPLE GENERATIONS?
@@MrRondonmon Your mistake was assuming that "the subject was two different points in time." This assumption must come from a preconceived idea that is not in the text anywhere! And all the things Jesus said were to occur were related to the felling of that temple. And then, "Immediately after the tribulation of those days;" WHAT DAYS? Those tribulation days that was the siege of Jerusalem that lasted 3 1/2 years, ending in 70AD. And IMMEDIATELY after that occurrence the coming of the Lord! " then will appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory; 31 and he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. The assumption of a two points in time in MT 24 is completely false, and is nowhere in the texts.
@@makarov138 70 AD was not End Times. This just makes you look real bad. The Sun & Moon event is Rev. 8, it will burn 1/3 of the worlds trees, Pssstt, look up Apophis, it will hit on April 13, 2029, that is the DOTL God's Wrath.
The words " this generation " "the temple at Jerusalem even though it was in reality destroyed and Jews persecuted.
Its all parables. Jesus taught in parables. The temple is not jus a building but is humanity without God. Not even one evil person will survive judgement. Not even a single stone will be left that wont be turned.
The famine is not of bread of food, but that of the word. The war is the spiritual wars of doctrines ,values , and beliefs during our times.
In short no man can understand scripture by literally taking those words as they mean in this life.
Jesus would use the things that we see and understand to reflect on celestial ones.
Jus praying that God helps us understand these things by His Holy Spirit.
@@makarov138 Where is the historical proof the sun and the moon went dark in 70AD? Where is the historical proof the stars fell from heaven in 70AD? Where is the historical proof Jesus showed his sign in the clouds in 70AD? Where is the historical proof people went missing in 70AD? Why wasn't John missing? He wrote his Revelation later than 70AD around 96AD on the isle of Patmos. How is that possible?
🌹💖🤲
The following is five undeniable irrefutable reasons proving Matthew 24 is for only one time frame.
#1. Only one main event is referred to, Mt.24:2. Though when this happened, the city was also destroyed with thousands of Jews killed.
#2. Only one end is referred to, Mt.24:6, 14.
#3. All the signs are grouped together as referring to one event not two or more, Mt.24:33.
#4. The time frame “this generation” especially when taken in context can’t possibly be referring to more than one time frame. See also Mt.12:41-45, 23:36, Lu.11:31,32,50,51, Ac.2:40.
#5. The judgments declared in Mt.21:40-41, 22:1-7, 23:34-38 are also about this gigantic single event.
Did Jesus totally ignore, or did He answer the disciple’s questions? Did He trick or mislead them?
Hello! Just one add’l piece of info. Josephus wrote that over a million people died during the siege of Jerusalem. Partly due to that being the time of Passover celebration. That was a lot more people than I initially thought also considering that I was never taught about what happened during 70 ad growing up.
Sure. Except this is not what Matthew 24 is about. it is about the second coming of Christ. He is talking to the disciples but generalizing to Israel. You really do not need to know about extra Biblical things per se. What you need to know is how this book fits with the other books in the Bible regarding end times prophecy. You also need to know that different dispensations are occurring from the law to grace. When you understand this, rightly dividing the word of truth, you will see that most books of the Bible are addressed to Israel and others are addressed to believers saved by grace through faith. He is talking about Israel enduring the tribulation and the antiChrist and those allied with him/ her turning over those undergoing the tribulation to take the mark of the antichrist or be martyred.
Why do futurists use Mat 24:36
"But of THAT day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only"; as though Jesus was speaking of a distant time 2000 or more years after what He was explaining already? These people add to scripture to push the futurist idea that half of the Olivet Discourse is divided into separate timeframes when it was NOT! It ALL happened 40 years later when the old covenant came fully when Jesus came in the clouds and destroyed the temple. Titus and the Romans did not want the temple destroyed and could not have if they wanted. Jesus did it from the clouds of wrath which was to come!
Wrong!!!! Verse 5 says that Jesus answered his disciples and told them that many will come in his name saying that he is the Christ and will deceive many!!

Sounds like you are confused man. How are you going to ignore that Christ said then the coming would happen. This is for all people. To say this is spoken to just the apostles is foolish. Read the entirety of this chapter and and the next and get understanding. You have dropped the ball tremendously
I did a verse by verse study of this chapter with 20+ pages of notes working through verse by verse. So, your assumption that I'm unfamiliar with the surrounding context is uninformed. I'd be interested in hearing your understanding of the text, taking all verses into account??? Don't just come on here claiming other people are confused without offering something constructive.
Not just the coming would happen. Also as in the days of Noah and the worst times ever. This is something still to come for everybody. Not just for Israel. In fact every verse in Matthew 24 from the verse 4 onward is for everybody. And it's still coming. Jesus answered two questions. What is the sign of your coming and what is the sign of the end. Jesus answered first the question of the end and then the question of his coming. That doesn't mean the first answer comes chronologically fist. Jesus told later it will be as in the days of Noah. The days of Noah can't be when the worst days ever happen Matthew 24:21. This way he answered also the chronologically order. The second answer comes chronologically first. This means Matthew 24:27 to the end comes first and then comes Matthew 24:4-26. In Matthew 24:29 the sun, the moon and the stars darken. This is the day of the Lord. It's written 7 times in the Old Testament. In all 7 stories the sun/moon darkens first and then comes the pain, the judgment. The judgment is 7 years and 75 days. Jesus takes his people out before the judgment. And this could happen any second now. We all saw what happened in 2021/2022. We are on the brink. Another interesting point. Now nobody is watching for a Messiah. It's as in the days of Noah, nobody needs a Messiah. Everybody is his own God. That's why Jesus doesn't mention to be careful of a false Messiah in Matthew 24:27 to the end. Not one time. That's the time we are living in now. There is no need for this warning. But after the rapture this world will turn very ugly. And people will start to watch out for a Messiah. That's why Jesus is warning many times in Matthew 24:4 to 25 to be careful of a false Messiah.
@@marcelfiechter7436 False Messiah/2Thessalonians2. Many will be deceived.
About Matthew 24, the Greek word used for "pass" in these verses is "παρέλθῃ" (parelthē), which can also be translated as "enter into" or "pass into." This broader range of meanings allows for an interpretation that the generation would not enter into or experience the fullness of the fulfillment until all the described events are accomplished. Similar to how Israel could not pass the wilderness trial and had to wander for 40 years and fail to enter God's promises, the first century Israel failed to enter into God's promises for them by rejecting Christ and his apostles and thus were sent to wander for 2000+ years until a future generation is able to pass God's requirements through faith in the Messiah. This understanding explains why the first century Israel did not pass, but failed to pass, and thus awaits future fulfillment.
However, given that the generation of Israel was poised in the first century to have the potential to receive Jesus Christ and usher in the kingdom on Earth had they received Him (Acts 3:20), the events described in Matthew 24 may have begun to take place, but not everything did. Certainly God's elect were not gathered from the four winds (Matthew 24:31) and Christ did not appear with great glory to cause all the nations on earth to mourn (Matthew 24:30), which corresponds to Revelation 1:7 “every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all peoples on earth will mourn because of him." Those that pierced him, as per Zechariah 12:10, are the nation of Israel collectively, and this is clearly speaking about the 2nd coming of Christ, which no Christian should try to argue is a historical event, as we are still waiting the coming of the Lord and our gathering together unto him.
2 Thessalonians 2:1
"Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him (our blessed hope), we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us-whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter-asserting that the Day of the Lord (book of Revelation, nightmare on earth) is at hand." If those who preach 70 AD are correct, then the Day of the Lord (destruction of Jerusalem?) was absolutely at hand when Paul was writing. However, the Day of the Lord, which is what Joel speaks of in Joel 2, is what Peter quotes in Acts 2 explaining to the Jews what is happening. However if you read Joel 2 carefully it says starting in verse 27
"Then you will know that I am in Israel,
that I am the Lord your God,
and that there is no other;
never again will my people be shamed.
“And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams"
So the fulfillment of Joel 2 happens after Israel is reconciled fully to God and are never again put to shame. The nation of Israel was put to horrific shame in 70 AD and God is not presently dwelling with Israel in their midst, as Israel has forsaken God and rejected His Messiah and spent 2000 years in scattered exile and judgment. Joel 2 was about to come to pass in the first century, the beginnings of it were evidenced by the pouring out of God's Spirit, but the fulfillment of it did not take place in full in the first century, but was postponed to a future generation. Peter, acknowledging that people will scoff at this idea says:
2 Peter 3:4
They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”
Peter goes on to explain that if you want to understand the longsuffering of God and why these events did not take place;
2 Peter 3:15
Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.
Paul's letters explain why God did not bring upon the nation of Israel in the first century the completion of their prophesied end times, because Israel fell (Romans 11:11). God will not bring about the fulfillment of the promises made to that nation until they are good and ready to receive all that God has for them, and that begins by them acknowledging Jesus Christ as their Messiah. So the obstinance and refusal of Israel has benefited the world for 2000 years, putting a pause on Israel's prophetic program until "the fullness of the Gentiles be come in" (Romans 11:25). Then God will return and save Israel "as it is written" in the scriptures of the prophets and as Jesus himself said would happen.
There is one big mistake in your interpretation. Joel 2:28 And afterward will I pour out. Take care what - And afterward - means in the prophetic. In the vision it's afterward. That's not necessarily chronologically. To find that out you need the context. Read the whole chapter and 2 and chapter 3. The sun/moon darken is three times. In Joel 2:10 the sun and the moon shall be dark and the stars shall withdraw their shining. Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood. Joel 3:15 The sun and moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light. If you read the context of all this three verses you will see it's always the Day of the Lord. It is three times the same event shown from a different angle. The first one is for the Israelits, the second one is for the believers and the third one is for the unbelievers. The same event - sun/moon darken - is also in Isaiah 13, Amos 8, Ecclesiastes 12:2 and Ezekiel 32:7. And it's the same event in Matthew 24:29-31 and it's the same event in the 6th seal Rev 6:12-17.
