OCTOBER 14 THE JESUS QUESTIONS JQ#30 “Do you not see all these things?” (Matthew 24:02)

 OCTOBER 14  THE JESUS QUESTIONS  JQ#30 “Do you not see all these things?”  (Matthew 24:02)


LIVING FOR JESUS - Daily Prayer    

JESUS, O Holy Spirit, let my lips ever praise Thee but more important let my life be lived “in Christ and Christ in me” each and every day! Lord grant it that my heart be forever grateful that Your Grace restores us to the Father and Your Forgiveness frees us from our slavery to sin and the world! Lord may each day continue to begin with writing the Precious Name “JESUS” but if I write it or not, may my heart, mind, and body worship You and witness to Your Glory for it is more important for the kingdom’s sake that Jesus Himself is written on the “Way” that I live my day-to-day life! Lord, may my heart never forget the moving of the Holy Spirit in my life nor the Eternal Truth that He is ALWAYS there to comfort, correct and to guide us if we but call on Him with a humble and contrite spirit.   AMEN



OCTOBER 14  THE JESUS QUESTIONS

Jesus has a point in first asking “Do you not see…” and then making a list of “…all these things?” and as usual that “Divine point” is to convey a Truth of God and reveal God to us through our reflection on His Question as we try as best we can to “understand” the Question Jesus is asking us and to give Him an honest question — for only in knowing the TRUTH OF GOD can we truly “understand [i.e. ‘see’] the Creator’s world in which we live”. God had planned long before the Creation “all these things” that would come about and Jesus is fulfilling that Divine Plan which includes letting God’s people know the Truth of God in order to make their decision about their own eternities! This characteristic of God of letting us “know” ahead of time the details of His Plan is part of The Plan in order that we will recognize the TRUTH OF GOD that He has a DIVINE PLAN in place for how else could Daniel write so clearly about the “abomination of desolation” or Jesus give details of the “Great Tribulation” that follows (Matthew 24:15-22) if it had not already been determined and laid out in detail by the Omnipotent, Omnipresent Creator God? For instance, Daniel first wrote of the Messiah and 600 years later Jesus fulfills the Messianic Prophecy of Daniel so completely that there can be no doubt that JESUS and ONLY JESUS IS the MESSIAH for He fulfilled exactly EVERY DETAIL of the Messianic Prophesy and now Jesus is in effect saying that because He so completely fulfills Daniel’s Prophecy that we must then look at the other prophecies and KNOW that they are from God and therefore they will come about! This can be drawn from what Jesus said as He was describing the “Great Tribulation” that was to follow the “Abomination of Desolation” Daniel described when Jesus said plainly to His disciples See, I have told your beforehand…” (Matthew 24:26) which clearly ties His original Question, “Do you not see all these things?” with the fact that Jesus and Daniel can only list “…all these things…” because they are part of God’s Plan that God Himself revealed to Daniel in a vision and had worked out the details of His Plan with Jesus Himself before the Creation was in place and now as “…all these things…” that were written and told to us “beforehand” happen right before our eyes that certainly we should be able to “SEE” what God reveals so plainly to us! Jesus then added “For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.” (Matthew 24:27) So Jesus is telling us “beforehand” that we will be able to “see” God’s Plan unfold and we will KNOW that it was a PLAN told us and written down for us to in order that our FAITH WILL BE MADE SIGHT and we indeed will “see all these things” are from God!!! For only the ONE that KNOWS the PLAN can actually “see” the PLAN unfold in our daily lives and the only “Way” we can KNOW THE PLAN is to LISTEN to the ONE THAT MADE THE PLAN and has the SUPREME POWER TO MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!! ——— or will you remain in your darkness, blinded to the TRUTH and refuse with your hardened heart to “SEE ALL THESE THINGS”!?!?!?!?!
