When you think of the apocalypse, you normally think about revelation, right?

What if I told you you could find the apocalypse somewhere else in the New Testament?

That's right, straight from the mouth of Jesus.

Yeah. Welcome to the Prophecy Pros podcast here with my great buddy Todd Hampson,

and we're at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention here in Nashville, Tennessee,

and we're having a great time.

That's the chatter you're here in the background. I've been doing a lot of podcasts, a lot of recording, and a lot of

interviews with some people, some guests that you're going to love here. But here's the deal.

When we look back in Matthew 24, there's one of the most interesting sections in all of the New

Testament, Todd. And, you know, Jesus taught on a variety of topics. He

taught about heaven, about hell, about worry. He taught about temptation, many different things,

but most people don't realize that Christ talked a lot about the apocalypse and about the end

times. And he did it primarily towards the end of his ministry. And these are some of the last words of Jesus Christ

spoken during the last week of his life. So Matthew 24, as we kind of begin to open up this

book here, is really one of the most interesting places in scripture, isn't it?

It really is. And, you know, just looking at it from our current perspective, it's, it's,

you and I talk a lot about how most people don't want to touch prophecy or think it's obscure or

a side issue or distracting. Jesus talked about it at length. As a matter of fact, his second

longest teaching recorded in scripture is all about the end times, Matthew 24, Luke 21, and Mark 13. And it's all

specifically about the end times. And also, just recently, I finished my book, the Nonprofits

Guide to the Bible. And I don't know how many times I've read the Bible and I overlooked. There's

actually a, they call it Isaiah's Apocalypse and Jeremiah's Apocalypse.
