The prophecy (Matthew 24, Mark 13) begins with the destruction of temple:
Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.
Jesus tells, that many false messiahs will come in this age (Simon Magus, Theudas and more...).
For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.
Next there will be many conflicts: Uprising of brothers Jacob and Simon, Jewish-Roman war, Samaritan conflicts and many smaller revolts.
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars.
Jesus's followers and apostles (John, Peter, James...) were persecuted.
Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death.
Destruction of Judea by Vespasian and his legion.
So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation.
Christians under the leadership of Simon, Jesus's brother left Jerusalem to area around Pella (Decapolis), but this Simon was not the same (Simon, church leader) that was later crucified.
Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
Many curious astronomical signs were documented just before the destruction of Jerusalem by Josephus and Tacitus, including heavenly army with Jesus covered in clouds.
Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven.
Jesus came for his only believers .
And they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.
All these things already happened, within the generation Jesus lived in.
Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
It is supported by Matthew 16:28 (Mark 9:1), it tells that some of the followers will not die until Son of Man comes.
Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.
Daniel 7 supports this:
The four great beasts are four kings that will rise from the earth.
First Beast with human heart was Babylon. Second Beast was Achaemenid empire. Third Beast was divided empire of Alexander with 4 heads (Seleucids, Ptolemy, Macedon and kingdom in Anatolia). The last Beast was Rome.
The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom.
Horns are emperors of the Roman Empire. The tenth emperor was Emperor Vespasian.
As I watched, this horn was waging war against the holy people and defeating them - it was Jewish-Roman war in 66-73 AD.
There before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them..., After them another king will arise, different from the earlier ones; he will subdue three kings - this little horn would mean his son, emperor Titus who destroyed Jerusalem in that war (he was not emperor at that time). He defeated 3 tyrannical rulers, who were fighting over control of Jerusalem (Eleazar ben Simon, Simon bar Giora, John of Gischala).
But the court will sit, and his power will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.
Vespasian and Titus are mysteriously dying 2 years apart each other. Then mount Vesuvius explodes in year 79: A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him.
Remember Nebuchadnezzar prophecy in Daniel 2?
Gold empire was Babylon, Silver empire was Achaemenid empire, Bronze empire was Alexander's empire and Iron empire was Rome. God's kingdom will be like rock that destroys these other kingdoms and will stand forever.
After all, God's kingdom is not just in the future, but it is already.
But about the resurrection of the dead - have you not read what God said to you, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. He is not the God of the dead but of the living. (Matthew 22:31-32).
