Alastair's Adversaria

CHAPTER

Is the Old Testament Prophecy a False Prophet?

Jesus was not a false prophet then. Rather, he faithfully foretold the destruction of jerusalem and its temple. He ends the discourse with a charge to watchfulness and wakefulness. For every one else, life will be going on as normal, but they must keep awake so that the day does not trap them. The fact that jesus says that all these things would occur within that generation, and then immediately declares how certain his words are has proved an embarrassment for many christians. But if we know how to read old testament prophecy, none of this should be surprising to us. This is the vindication of the exalted son of man by the dispossession of the wicked tenets.
