This video demonstrates that Mathew 16:27-28, Mathew 26:64, and Revelation 1:7 prophesied the second coming of Christ to put all his enemies under his feet in fulfillment of Psalm 110, and must have been fulfilled in the judgment of the generation who pierced him. These are powerful and undeniable connections that place the first century Parousia of Christ at the fall of Jerusalem in AD70.

Matthew 16:27-28 #36 Coming to Put All Enemies Under His Feet

The coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28 and the revelation of Jesus Christ in Revelation 1:7 prophesied the second coming of Christ in the glory of the Father in fulfillment of Isaiah 40 to establish the kingdom and bring both judgment and salvation to the house of Israel. These are powerful connections that prove a first century second coming of Christ, just like Jesus promised!

Matthew 16:27-28 #35 Coming in the Glory of The Father

In this video we begin to demonstrate how the apostle John used the prophecy of Jesus in Mathew 16:27-28 as his source for the second coming of Christ in the book of Revelation. If John, under the inspiration of the Spirit understood Mathew 16:27-28 to refer to the second coming of Christ and applied it that way, then modern futurist are clearly wrong to apply it differently. The biblical fact is this; the second coming of Christ in Revelation 22:12 was drawn from the coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28, which both Jesus and John placed within the lifetime of their contemporary generation.

Mathew 16:27-28 #31 The 2nd Coming of Christ in Revelation 22:12

As we continue our study of Mathew 16:27-18, we will begin to look at how Jesus and the New Testament writers drew from this prophecy in their anticipation of the second coming of Christ. As we shall see, the doctrine of the Lord and his apostles identifies the coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28 as the second coming of Christ (the Parousia of the Almighty) which they themselves placed within the lifetime of their own generation, at the fall of Jerusalem in AD70.

Matthew 16:27-28 #30 A Source for the 2nd Coming of Christ in the N.T. - An Overview

In this video we recap our studies up to this point on Matthew 16:27-28, where we have definitively and systematically demonstrated the following argument: The coming of the Lord in Daniel 7, Isaiah 40, Isaiah 59, and Isaiah 62 served as primary Old Testament sources for the coming of the Son of Man in Matthew 16:27-28. But, the coming of the Lord in each of those Old Testament passaged prophesied the eschatological return of Yahweh, that is, the second coming of Christ. Therefore we conclude, the coming of the Son of Man in Matthew 16:27-28 in fulfillment of those Old Testament passages prophesied the second coming of Christ as the eschatological return of Yahweh, which Jesus himself placed within the lifetime of his first disciples. "There are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom". The PDF comparative chart below powerfully illustrates this conclusion.

Matthew 16:27-28 #29 The 2nd Coming of Christ in Fulfillment of O.T. Prophecy - Recap

We once again demonstrate that the second coming of Christ for the wedding was to take place at the judgment of the "murderers" and the burning of their city in AD70. We reveal a clear and convincing connection between the gathering of all nations for the wedding (Matthew 22:9-10), the rejection of that wedding by the Jews, and the outworking of the great commission in Paul's generation (Acts 13:15-51). Be sure to like and share this video!

Matthew 16:27-28 #26 Unworthy of the Wedding

According to the prophet Isaiah, the second coming of the Lord would consummate the Messianic remarriage of Israel. In other words, "the coming" and "the wedding" are synchronous events. What this means is, the time of the marriage is the time of the second coming of Christ in fulfillment of Isaiah 62 and Mathew 16:27-28. Join us as we make some preliminary connections concerning the theme of the Messianic remarriage in the context of the first century Parousia.

Matthew 16:27-28 #23 Isaiah 62 and the Messianic Remarriage

The consistent testimony of both Old and New Testaments, is that the eschatological regathering of Israel was to take place in the first century generation, specifically, at the destruction of Jerusalem in AD70 (Deuteronomy 30:1-6, Isaiah 27). And, since that eschatological regathering of Israel was to take place at the second coming of Christ (Isaiah 40, Mathew 24, Mark 13 etc.), then the second coming of Christ must have occurred at the fall of Jerusalem in AD70 (Mathew 16:27-28). Once again, the time of the "gathering together of the elect" determines the time of the second coming of Christ.

Matthew 16:27-28 #22 The Messianic Regathering of Israel II

According to Isaiah 40, the second coming of Christ was to accomplish the Messianic regathering of Israel. But, both John the Baptist and Jesus placed the "gathering of Israel" (the gathering of the wheat/the elect) at the coming of the Son of Man and the close of the Jewish age to execute the wrath "about to come" upon that generation (Mathew 3:7-12, 13:30,39, 24:30-34). This can only mean that the coming of the Son of Man in Matthew 16:27-28 in fulfillment of Isaiah 40, prophesied the second coming of Christ, and must have been accomplished at the close of the Jewish age in AD70. A first century gathering of Israel proves a first century second coming of Christ.

Matthew 16:27-28 #21 The Messianic Regathering of Israel

According to the ministry and message of John the Baptist, our connection between the coming of the Lord in Isaiah 40 and the coming of the Son of Man in Matthew 16:27-28 is proven to be perfectly valid. John came to prepare the way for the coming of Jesus in fulfillment of Isaiah 40. But according to John, the coming of Jesus in fulfillment of Isaiah 40 would bring both salvation and judgment, and that the judgment was "about to come" (Luke 3:2-17). Therefore, John came preaching that the coming of the Lord in Isaiah 40 was "about to be" fulfilled as the coming of Jesus. This agrees perfectly with what Jesus himself taught. In fulfillment of Isaiah 40, Jesus placed his coming in both salvation and judgment in Mathew 16:27-28, in the lifetime of his contemporary disciples. John and Jesus preached the exact same coming, for the exact same purpose, to be fulfilled at the exact same time.... "there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom".

Matthew 16:27-28 #20 Isaiah & the Message of the Baptist

In this short video we give a brief recap of the information and arguments put forth in the last several videos. The coming of the Lord in Isaiah 59 was an Old Testament source for the first century coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28. But, Isaiah 59 prophesied the second coming of Christ (Romans 11:25-27) to take vengeance for shedding innocent blood and to establishment of the New Covenant (events which find fulfillment at the judgment of Jerusalem in AD70 - Galatians 4:21-30 Luke 21:20-32). Therefore, the coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28 prophesied the second coming of Christ at the destruction of Jerusalem and the judgment of the Jewish nation in AD70, in fulfillment of Isaiah 59 and Romans 11:25-27. And, by faith in Christ today, we enter the New Covenant to receive the salvation and restoration (resurrection) that 2000 years ago was delivered to Israel. God has been faithful to all his good promise! This is the good news, be sure to tell someone!!

Matthew 16:27-28 #18 In Fulfillment of Isaiah 59:17-21 - Recap

According to Isaiah 59, the second coming of Christ would establish the New Covenant; that is, it would bring it to perfection and thus fully apply its blessings (Isaiah 59:16-21 Romans 11:25-27). But the perfection of the New Covenant came in AD70, when the Old Covenant was removed and it's children cast out (2 Corinthians 3:9-18 Galatians 4:21-5:5 Mathew 21:33-45). Therefore the second coming of Christ in Mathew 16:27-28 (in fulfillment of Isaiah 59) was accomplished in AD70, when the ministry of condemnation which had no gory was replaced with the ministry of righteous which abounded in glory. As a result of the "coming of the Son of Man in his kingdom", the church stands clothed in the righteousness of Christ bearing the image of God through the establishment of the glorious New Covenant.

Matthew 16:27-28 #17 To Establish the New Covenant

According to the prophetic applications of both Jesus and Paul, Mathew 16:27-28 prophesied the second coming of Christ in fulfillment of Isaiah 59:17-21 and Romans 11:25-27. This means that the second coming of Christ must have been accomplished in the lifetime of Jesus' first disciples; just like Jesus promised.... "there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom". More to come concerning these amazing connections....

Matthew 16:27-28 #14 - Romans 11 and The salvation of All Israel

In order to establish a first century second coming of Christ, we set forth the following argument in this short video.... <br />
-The coming of the Redeemer to Zion in Isaiah 59:17-21, served as a primary prophetic source for the coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28 (Jesus was quoting Isaiah)<br />
-But, the the coming of there Lord to Zion in Isaiah 59:17-21 prophesied the second coming of Christ.<br />
-Therefore, the coming of the Son of Man in Mathew 16:27-28, in fulfillment of Isaiah 59:17-21, prophesied the second coming of Christ which must have been fulfilled in the lifetime of Jesus' contemporary disciples, just like Jesus promised.

Matthew 16:27-28 #13 In Fulfillment of Isaiah 59

Scripture teaches that Jesus was to return "in just the same way" that he ascended (Acts 1:11). By comparing Acts 1:9-11 with Luke 24:50-51, we learn that Jesus ascended while "blessing" his disciples. Therefore, Jesus would return to "bless" his disciples. In his letter to the Hebrews, Paul anticipated their "blessing" (salvation) at the second coming of Jesus (Hebrews 9:28), and Jesus promised that "blessing" (redemption) to be received by the first century generation. Just as they had seen him go, so he returned in their lifetime. The focus of Acts 1:9-11 was not on the "body" of Jesus, but on the blessing that Jesus would bring to his body.

The Return of Jesus in Acts 1:9-11 Part 6

The dispensationalists claim that the emphasis of Acts 1:9-11 is a visible bodily return of Jesus. This is simply not true. By comparing Acts 1:9-11 with it's parallel "ascension text" in Luke 24:49-51 and Paul's words in 1 Timothy 3:16, we are able to discern some "common elements" which help us to understand the emphasis of Acts 1:11. Jesus left in a "cloud", was taken into "heaven", received into "glory", while "blessing" his disciples. The emphasis of Acts 1:9-11 is not a physical body. The emphasis is on heaven, the cloud, the glory, and blessing. As we shall see, these elements are common to several "second coming prophecies" which place the return of Jesus not in the future, not in a body, but in the first century. As he left, so he would return, in that generation.
