Olivet Discourse (Part 2)
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg explores the significance of the Holy Spirit in Christianity and its role as a comforter after Jesus' ascension. He also delves into the historical context of the Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24, which discusses the end of the Jewish age and the destruction of the temple. While there are different interpretations of the phrase "this generation," Gregg argues that it refers to the events of Jesus' time rather than a distant future. Understanding the details and historical context is essential to understanding this discourse in its entirety.
