Mark 13 (Part 2)

Gospel of MarkSteve Gregg
In this discussion, Steve Gregg examines Mark 13's prediction of the destruction of the temple and the signs that foreshadow it. He highlights the importance of standing firm in faith amidst persecution, and the promised guidance of the Holy Spirit in times of trial. However, he emphasizes that the events described primarily speak of the imminent destruction of Jerusalem and not necessarily the Second Coming of Christ, and warns against assuming that every reference to Jesus' coming refers to a future Second Coming.
