Matthew 24:40-51
Dr. Jerry Vines
Well, I want you to turn in Matthew 24 and I'm picking up today with
verse 40 and will read to the end of the chapter, and this is the third mesage
in the 24th chapter which is our Lord's sermon on His awn return. These are the
words- that Hei give about D ccmng- ayanT*. And, you knw, When you Listen very
carefully and watch the news that's taking place today, it certainly heightens
your execncy of the returning of the Lord Jesus Christ.

body of Christ, the Chur of the Lord Jesus Christ. The mystery of the Church
according to the Bible is that both Jew and Gentile are made one in the Body of
2
Christ. It is a mystery that cannot be witnessed anywehre else on the earth.
God takes fonrmr clashi elements and H puts them together in His Body the
Church.
Now in the opening part of this chapter, we have already seen the end
times as they relate to the Gentile nations. In the main part of the chapter, we
