Don Carson discusses Jesus's warnings of false prophets, wars, and persecution before the end times as outlined in Matthew 24:1–28. Carson suggests Jesus's response to the disciples about the end times interweaves the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 with his return. The church should expect opposition and persecution as part of the period leading up to Jesus's return, so Carson encourages Christians to be strengthened in prayer, looking to Jesus's prophecies and teachings for guidance and hope.
