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. He warned the disciples that Jerusalem would become desolate. This prophecy exhorts the reader to flee to the mountains (for those in Judea). Also, exhorts those in the midst of Jerusalem to depart. This departure should occur when God’s people see the Abomination of Desolation in the church. During the Great Tribulation, the false churches and parachurches persecute God’s people. 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. Click on the link below to view a You Tube video on this topic.
