Yes, you read the title correctly! It’s absolutely true, the last days are behind us! You could equally say the last days are past days! My aim is to present an optimistic and triumphant eschatology that more accurately reflects God’s love for humanity, as opposed to the fatalistic and escapist perspectives often associated with discussions on the “last days”. In pursuit of this, I endeavor to clarify the meaning
of terms such as “last days” as understood in the first century, along with the context in which Jesus and the Apostles utilized them when addressing their contemporaries. This knowledge can be an invaluable
asset in your studies, particularly in interpreting critical passages. From personal experience, I can attest to the transformative and beneficial impact of such understanding.
I am excited to share that we are not alone in our journey. Colin MacIntyre, a true gift to the Body of Christ, has generously allowed us to use his study aids, Covenant Cards, throughout the following pages.
These cards will help you better understand the historical and cultural context and meaning of the words we will be studying shortly. I hope you find them helpful!
Jesus’ statement that “heaven and earth will pass away” in Matthew 24:35 holds a deeper meaning when viewed through the lens of first-century Jewish culture. The Jewish temple, referred to as “heaven and earth,” represented the connection between the divine and earthly realms. Jesus was prophesying the destruction of the temple and emphasizing the eternal nature of His teachings. Understanding this cultural context helps us grasp that Jesus’ words were not about the end of the physical universe but signaled a significant transformation in the religious and social landscape of His time. Additionally, the concept of the “last days” in the Bible should be seen as the final phase of Old Covenant Israel rather than the end of the world.
