It's what Jesus said about the wrath to come upon Jerusalem (which Luke recorded in Luke 21:20-24) that caused them to flee, not what Jesus said about great tribulation (which was recorded by Matthew).
Matthew, Luke, and Mark are synoptic.

All refer to the destruction of Jerusalem.

The Greek takes precedence over any translation, King James or otherwise.

It makes all the difference, because Jesus did not tell His disciples to go for coffee while He began a futurized monologue irrelevant to them. What He said was directly related to what the Judaean Christians would experience within a generation.

They remembered Jesus' warning, heeded it, fled, and survived.

Thankfully, they were not dispensational futurites.

Nothing to do with "the time of the end".
No
We can all see the end time events have not happened.
Stop acting like they have

Pot<> kettle big time.
How ironic you revert to the low ground in insults and mocking, then point to others....
SMH
It's called banter by the British and pulling your leg by the South Africans but you call it insults and mocking and low ground.

And there I was thinking you had a sense of humor ..

PS: Are you German?

Then just pretend there is no book of Daniel.

Nothing can help you.
Never said or implied anything about or from Daniel.
You invoked that over the dynamics of revelation.
You introduced it.
I never said or implied anything of Daniel.
You need that hyper transposing for some reason.

I cant really help you
Daniel 9:26-27 talks about many abominations that are associated with the coming of the Messiah and the destruction of the temple and the city of Jerusalem.

Daniel 8:11; Daniel 11:31 and Daniel 12:11 speak about an abomination in the holy place of the temple in Jerusalem which was set up by Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 167 BC that is not associated with the destruction of either the city of Jerusalem, or of the temple in it, which is a type of the man of sin seating himself up in the New Testament Temple.

You have two completely different references to two completely different abominations in two completely different epochs conflated with one another.

If Daniel 9:27 has not yet been fulfilled then Messiah has not yet come and has not yet been cut off and the many abominations it's referring to have not yet occurred and the city and its temple have not yet been destroyed.​

No. All refer to the the tribulation that the living stones of the N.T Temple will face that is coming at the end of the age, and return of Christ, and one of them refers also to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D.

FOTG, you say a lot of really good things (in my opinion, of course), and I thought we were on the same page regarding the millennium, but based on this, it seems not. It seems you too suppose God's millennium to be future only. Is that correct? Or perhaps instead of 'millennium' you mean to say 'eternal life' and/or 'the new heaven and new earth'...?

This is a puzzling statement also:

Do you not believe that once you are born again of the Spirit, you are eternally secure in Christ?

Grace and peace to you.
-- He (Christ) alone possesses immortality and lives in unapproachable light,

whom no human has ever seen

or is able to see.

To him be honor and eternal power! Amen. --- 1 Timothy 6:15-16, NETfree version.

-- "For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has given to the Son to have life within Himself" -- John 5:26

Adam did not abide in the Word in whom is life (John 1:2 & 4), which says: ".. in the day that you eat of it, dying you shall die" (Genesis 2:17).

When he believed the word that said instead, "You shall not surely die" (Genesis 3:4) - which implied that Adam's eternal life | immortality was in himself - he began to die.

"If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered. And they gather and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done to you." (John 15:6-7).

After the resurrection our immortality will still be in Christ and not in ourselves.

Adam believed he would not die.​

It's coming upon us all because it's the way we all individually and Christ's church corporately is going to be purged of the sins we have collected like dust on an unused Bible. There is a reason why Jesus taught us to end our supplications to the Father with "Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil".

The wrath that came upon Jerusalem that Luke wrote about in Luke 21:23 was God's wrath, not Luke's.

No one has incorrectly said it was Luke's or I would have corrected that. It also does not say God's wrath, just wrath. If this is the trib period, and it is in every OD we have, then it is satan's wrath as per Rev 12:17.

The Russians have a worse and scarier accent when they're not having a sense of humor than even the Germans. The Italians have such a funny accent when they're not having a sense of humor that they make you laugh and anger them even more. The Irish just become unintelligible.
