140. The Whore, Jerusalem

Today, we’re unpacking the powerful metaphor of pregnancy that Jesus used in Matthew 24 to foretell the imminent judgment on Jerusalem. Many are surprised to learn that the “birth pangs” and signs described by Jesus weren’t for a distant future but were fulfilled in the first century. In this episode, we’ll explore the striking accuracy of Jesus’ prophecy and why it’s crucial to our understanding of biblical eschatology today.

Discover how this metaphor of labor fits into the timeline of AD 30 to AD 70, how Jerusalem was the woman in travail, and what it means for the Church as the new covenant bride of Christ. We’ll reveal why these truths shift our perspective away from future tribulation fears and toward celebrating Christ’s victory and His ongoing reign.

145. The Great Apostasy

December 13, 2024 • Kendall Lankford • Matthew 24:10

In today’s episode of The PRODCAST, we’re diving deep into one of Jesus’ most sobering and misunderstood prophecies: the great apostasy of Matthew 24. This pivotal moment in redemptive history foretells the imminent falling away of Jewish converts from Christ as persecution intensified and the pressure to return to the old covenant mounted. These events, culminating in the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, mark the end of the Jewish age and the triumph of Christ’s New Covenant Kingdom. In This Episode, We’ll Explore 📖 The Great Apostasy in Matthew 24 Unpack Jesus’ prediction of a widespread falling away among Jewish converts and how it served as a sign of judgment upon Israel and its obsolete covenant. 🕊️ Jewish Defection and the Persecution of the Church Learn how Jewish converts turned back to the old covenant under intense persecution, fulfilling Jesus’ prophecy and exposing their lack of true faith. 📜 The Apostasy in Paul’s Letters From Galatians to Thessalonians, discover how Paul confronted this defection head-on, warning the church against false teachers and urging them to stand firm in Christ. 🔍 Heresies Fueling the Apostasy Explore the role of Judaizers, Nicolaitans, and Gnostics in undermining the Gospel and luring Jewish Christians away from the truth. 🌟 Why It Matters Today Understand how the fulfillment of this prophecy in the first century strengthens our confidence in God’s Word, equips us to resist modern pressures, and fills us with postmillennial hope in Christ’s victorious kingdom.

144. End Times Signs And Imminent Destruction

December 6, 2024 • Kendall Lankford • Matthew 24:10

In today’s episode of The PRODCAST, we’re exploring one of the most fascinating and misunderstood topics in Scripture: signs. Signs have always been a significant part of God’s covenantal dealings with His people. From Noah’s Ark to the Exodus plagues, and from Jesus’ miracles to the apocalyptic imagery in Revelation, signs point to two inevitable outcomes—judgment and salvation. In This Episode, We’ll Explore: 📖 Understanding Biblical Signs Discover how signs throughout Scripture were given to specific people, in specific times, to warn of imminent judgment and call for repentance. Signs are never random or futuristic—they are immediate and meaningful. 🕊️ Jesus’ Signs in the Gospels Unpack how Jesus used signs to divide His audience between the repentant and the rebellious. From healing the blind to raising Lazarus, these signs foretold both salvation for His followers and judgment upon Israel’s unfaithfulness. 📜 Matthew 24 and the Olivet Discourse Learn how the signs of Matthew 24 point directly to the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, showcasing God’s justice and the establishment of Christ’s New Covenant Kingdom. 🔍 Revelation as a Book of Signs Understand how the vivid imagery of Revelation continues the biblical theme of signs, warning apostate Israel of judgment while declaring salvation and triumph for the Church. 🌟 Why It Matters Today Explore how recognizing the fulfillment of these signs allows us to live with postmillennial hope, embracing the victorious reign of Christ rather than fearing the future. 🌟 Subscribe, Like, and Share! 🌟 Spread the truth of God’s Word by subscribing, hitting the notification bell, and sharing this teaching.
