Welcome back to The PRODCAST, where we tackle the toughest biblical passages, demolish dispensational doom-and-gloom, and prod the church to live like Christ reigns—because He does!

In this episode, we dismantle one of the most misunderstood topics in eschatology: the second coming of Christ in Matthew 24. Spoiler alert—it’s already happened. Don’t worry, this doesn’t deny the future bodily return of Christ. Instead, we’re diving into what “coming” means in its historical and covenantal context.

🔑 What We Cover in This Episode

Why dispensationalism’s gap theory is a house of cards.

The true meaning of Jesus “coming on the clouds” (Hint: It’s not futuristic sky surfing).

Twelve lines of biblical evidence that Matthew 24 is fulfilled prophecy.

How this changes everything about how we live as Kingdom citizens today.

🚨 Key Highlights

Jesus’ words Are Trustworthy

1. The word “immediate” (Matthew 24:29) doesn’t leave room for a 2,000-year gap.

2. Every event Jesus prophesied—including the Great Tribulation and the fall of Jerusalem—happened within a generation.

Understanding the Genre

3. Jesus switches to apocalyptic language in Matthew 24. This isn’t about literal celestial disasters but symbolic judgment on the Old Covenant order.

Quoting the Prophets

1. Jesus draws directly from Old Testament passages (e.g., Daniel 7, Joel 2, Amos 8) to show that His judgment on Jerusalem fulfills centuries of prophecy.

Dispensationalism Debunked

1. Forget futuristic fantasies of global catastrophes. Matthew 24 isn’t about the end of the world; it’s about the end of the Old Covenant.

Living in the New Covenant Kingdom

1. The destruction of Jerusalem proves Christ’s enthronement as King. We’re not waiting for a Kingdom to come—it’s here, and it’s unshakable.

🌟 Takeaways for Today

Freedom: Stop living in fear of an apocalyptic future. Jesus reigns now!

Confidence: Trust His promises—Christ’s victory in AD 70 is proof that His Word is true.

Action: Live boldly as Kingdom builders. Christ’s Kingdom is advancing, and you’re part of it.
