Jesus spoke of a day of unequaled destruction and suffering

Matthew 24:21-22

21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

22 If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

(New International Version translation)

Prophet: Jesus
Written: During the first century AD

In Matthew 24:21-22, Jesus says there will come a time when a calamity strikes that will be unequaled by anything that has ever taken place.

Many people have offered their opinions about this prophecy, claiming that it points to a time of worldwide turmoil, or widespread disease and famine, or terrorism, or nuclear war, etc. And, so, it can be easy to overlook the good news contained in this prophecy: No matter what happens in this world, no matter how bad things get, God ultimately is in control and God ultimately will intervene and save those who serve him.
