The Olivet Discourse (Mat 24, Mar 13, Luk 21) discusses the events of the Great Tribulation. Jesus Christ spoke this discourse on the Mount of Olives. During the Great Tribulation, God’s people are persecuted. This is because unsaved leaders control the end-time false church. But, Jesus tells us that these days will be shortened. Otherwise, no flesh would be saved. For the elect’s sake, these days will be shortened by God. But, what does this mean? The Great Tribulation is the ‘little season’ of deception that occurs just before the Last Day (second coming of Jesus Christ). The Great Tribulation occurs when Satan is loosed from his prison and goes forth to deceive the church. He powers the Antichrist, who will lead in both politics and the church. The Olivet Discourse focuses on the End Times and outlines the spiritual events of the Great Tribulation and the Last Day.
Unless Those Days be Shortened, no Flesh will be Saved
