Like a jeweler displaying his jewels on dark fabric, so Jesus used his impending - though temporal - doom and gloom as a back drop to display precious promises to His followers who would need such encouragement in a few hours.

Recognizing this as why we are here on earth is crucial to our fulfilling our mission for God.
