Don Carson continues his lecture on the Olivet Discourse from Matthew 24:29–44, focusing on Jesus’s return as the culmination of his reign, which began with his birth and continues through his resurrection and ascension. Drawing from Daniel 7:13–14, Carson highlights the eschatological significance of Jesus’s victory over Satan and the signs preceding his return. Given the suddenness and unpredictability of Christ’s return, believers must remain vigilant and balanced in their understanding of the second coming.
