You Must Understand This One Point in Order to Grasp the Flow of Matthew 24. . .
Many interpreters miss the most important structural element in Jesus’ Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24–25. After they read “and then the end will come” in verse 14, they assume everything that comes after that beginning in verse 15 are events that occur during the end of the age. This is deeply mistaken. The end is […]
N.T. Wright Uses Hyper-Preterist Arguments
I have pointed out in the past to preterists that Jesus in his Olivet Discourse cites from the most explicit resurrection passage in the entire Old Testament in Matthew 24–25. But they ignore this point. I describe this point in detail in my Antichrist Before the Day of the Lord: What Every Christian Needs to Know […]
A Brief Response to Jeff Kinley’s Misinterpretation of Jesus’ Words “As It Was in the Days of Noah . . . ” –Matthew 24:37–39

Craig is denying the accuracy of the narrative contextualization, as if that misrepresents the reference or meaning of the saying.

The Beginning of Birth Pangs Parallel the First Three Seals in the Book of Revelation
Darrin objects that the “Beginning of Birth Pangs” are parallel to the first three seals in the book of Revelation. He writes, “Many antichrists over a long period of time does not equal the one final antichrist [the rider of the first seal]. Wars, rumors of wars, and empires changing rising and falling is […]
Date-Setter Mark Biltz’s “Blood Moon 2014–2015” Theory
In the past, I have reported on Biltz’s theory and his date-setting claims he made in an interview with J. R. Church and Gary Stearman of Prophecy in the News. To my knowledge he has not retracted his date-setting and apologized for it. J. R. Church: This we are going to see in 2015 on […]
