Matthew chapter 24 = who is Christ speaking to???
the same ones peter was .............
as was paul , james , jude , john
as did the prophets and the law .
IT was all about CHRIST JESUS
and them letters apply to HIS BRIDE , HIS BODY , WIFE , KINGDOM ,
Which is any and all jews and gentiles WHO BELIEVE IN CHRIST JESUS .
That means , THERE IS NO TWO GOSPELS
there is no difference between the KINGDOM OF GOD , KINGDOM of heaven
THERE is no difference between WHO the BRIDE OF CHRIST IS verses the BODY of CHRIST
ITS all the same .
FOLKS just like to preach much error to support their own error that their men handed down to them .
WHO was the bible written for
THE PEOPLE OF GOD
And WHO IS THE PEOPLE OF GOD
THOSE WHO BELEIVE JESUS IS THE CHRIST . its real simple my friend .
But many dont like certain things written
and thus love to beleive OH that was for that age, or that group ,
NOPE . TRUTH IS FOR SHEEP and THE BIBLE IS FULL OF TRUTH . MEAT FOR THE SHEEP
and THE SHEEP dont twist and omit truth , THEY FEASTS ON IT and grow .

The other forum(BAM) is not a true Berean.

Most christians are not true Bereans but rather choose to follow the teachings of exalted men and women.
The real problem is that even many who might try and claim to be berean
are really this
CALVberean , Luthberean , Popeberean , Osasberean
And man that list is long .
In other words , What is Scripture to them is THUS SAYETH whatever men preached
and to them the only truth to be found in the scrips IS THE THUS SAYETH what I wanted to hear it say
is thus sayeth the LORD to them .
THEY AINT bereans , they soliders of whatever teacher pleased their own desires .
And sadly that is a fact .

an end hour call is being made to all who name the name of CHRIST .
get out of any church that supports in any way interfaith finding common ground
and focuses on a false love that wont correct sins and errors within the church .
Cause that ship is gonna SINK on the DAY OF THE GLORIOUS LORD JESUS whom its love and inclusiivity
finding common ground intefaith DENIED .

Who entered into the Church age is not the point.

He was preaching to Jews, as a good rabbi would have preached.
For what He preached about pertained to the future of the Jews.

Do you remember?
What Jesus was going to do later was to be undetected by the Jews. It was supposed to remain a mystery until later.
Jesus kept on preaching like a Rabbi who was to teach Jews.


I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God
in its fullness— the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now
disclosed to the Lord’s people." Colossians 1:25-26​

In Matthew, what Paul spoke of as hidden was being unseen by unsuspecting Jews.
Matthew 24 was taught in a manner as to be teaching Jews.

Some of Matthew 24 is written for Jews to read who will be going through the Tribulation while the Church will be in Heaven
Sorry Gene but you are back peddling as i knew you would.

Furthermore, JESUS finished speaking to the Jewish nation in Matthew chapter 23

Matthew ch24 is for the Bride of Christ = all whom the FATHER calls of both Jew & Gentile

Acts is for the Bride of Christ = all whom the FATHER calls of both Jew & Gentile

Apostles Letters are for the Bride of Christ = all whom the FATHER calls of both Jew & Gentile

Revelation is for the Bride of Christ = all whom the FATHER calls of both Jew & Gentile

The term “church age” is not found anywhere in the Bible, and Jesus never used it. It is a man-made term that came centuries later, mainly from a way of interpreting prophecy that divides history into different ages. According to that teaching, God’s plan for Israel stopped when Jesus came, and the church is now in a separate temporary period until God returns to deal with Israel again. But if we listen only to Jesus’ own words and the prophets before Him, this idea does not appear.

Jesus made it clear that His mission began with Israel when He said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel” (Matthew 15:24). Yet He also revealed that His plan was to bring in other sheep — the Gentiles — and join them together into one flock under one shepherd (John 10:16). This shows unity, not two separate peoples or two timelines.

The Old Testament prophets saw one great plan where the nations would be joined to God’s covenant people, not a gap in time where Israel’s story stopped. Jesus came to fulfill that plan, not to start a pause in Israel’s history. The “grafting in” of the Gentiles was always part of the promise, not a detour.

When we hold to the plain words of Jesus and the prophets, we see one kingdom, one flock, one Shepherd, and one continuous plan of God. The so-called “church age” is not a teaching from Christ but a later human label, and it risks dividing what God has joined together in His Son.

Whatever you want to say, sir? Must be right.

You keep failing to show what you need to cite to say something is so.
Chapters contain many things.
And you gave me not one specific example to go with....

Who Are God’s Chosen People?​

All humanity was chosen in Jesus. Many don't know it. So if you are aware that you are chosen, you have the privilege of telling those around you that God has chosen them also. It's called The Good News. Now, what people do with that new knowledge is their business. You are not commissioned to strong arm them with your logic or rational. You will be watched by those very same people to see how you relate to them and others. If your behaviour is consistent with that Good News you MIGHT have their ear.

You want scripture? Here it is, Roman 5:6-21....and there are many others.
Between vs 15-19 this Good News is reiterated five (5) times

So what does the choosing mean? We are told in Ephesians 1:

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly [places] in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

What does God's choosing achieve if you are correct in saying that it is all humanity?

Matthew 24 was Jesus speaking to Jews.
For the church age was still yet to come.

Jesus spoke as a good Rabbi would, to Jews concerning Jewish prophesy.

Keep in mind there are 51 verses in Matthew 24.
You did not point to anything specific, so I gave a generalized answer.
In Matt 24 Jesus was speaking to His called out disciples, the Church.

Gods choosing achieves an uncompromising revelation of himself and good news to a people who have only known alienation, suffering and death

ALL People WHO Choose Him.

The MYSTERY is:
God IS All knowing…(manKind is not)
He KNOWS who will and will not Choose Him, Before they are naturally born.
And He Has Already Prepared a Temporary and Eternal Place for All.
* Few of manKIND eternally WITH Him,
* Many of ManKind eternally WITHOUT Him.


Glory to God,
Taken

In Matt 24 Jesus was speaking to His called out disciples, the Church.

They were NOT church yet.
The Cross had not yet been fulfilled.

They had not yet transformed into a new creation in Christ to make them Church.
They were functionally 100% Jewish.

Give something then from Matthew 24 that reveals Jesus was speaking to Christians then!

All you give me?

Well... It is somewhere in that chapter!
Just keep pondering over it!
It will come to you!

Will you get honest with me?
SHOW ME something specific!

For I have no idea how you are misunderstanding what you think it says.
Stop lying to each other; tell the truth, for we are parts of each other
and when we lie to each other, we are hurting ourselves. Eph 4:25​

amen!

working now = be back later

LOOK and RECIEVE Jesus and His Brides words

Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be?
And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

4And Jesus answered and said to them:

True , but do allow a few more words of expouding to be typed .
Because if one chooses NOT CHRIST , THEY CHOSE NOT GOD and will DIE the second death in their sin .
GLORY TO GOD . i like that , you wrote GLORY TO GOD at the end .
But now this , JESUS IS THE GLORY OF GOD
and if one denies HIM they give NO GLORY TO GOD . so remember INTERFAITH IS OF ANTI CHRIST
and we darn sure dont want to follow that path or be co helpers in any way to that lie .

4And Jesus answered and said to them:
The Jew's concept of the coming age was what we now know as the Millennium reign of the Messiah over the Jews.

Nothing to do with becoming the church.
The church was hidden and a mystery until after the Church age began!
