THE CONSUMMATION OF THE AGE, AND THE ABOMINATION OF THE DESOLATION THEN.

There is to be adduced what the Lord says, 1. Concerning the "abomination of desolation";

2. What He says [concerning vastation];

3. What the Lord says concerning the "affliction";

4. That "no flesh can be saved";

5. Concerning the "darkening of the sun and of the moon";

6. The things which are declared in the Apocalypse (i 18),

Behold, I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am He that liveth unto the ages of the ages (see, also, Rev. ii 8 and v 6).

And again, the Lord says:

The night cometh when no man can work (John ix 4);

In that night, there shall be two men in one bed (Luke xvii 34).

Further, what the Lord says concerning Peter in John xxi 18; also, what Paul says concerning the last times, in 1 Tim. iv 1-3; 2 Tim. iii 1-7; iv 3,4. (What the Lord says in Matt. xxiv 27, that this should take place in the day of the Last Judgment, must be explained; also, what He says in vv. 30, 31. That this actually has thus taken place, see THE TRUE CHRISTIAN RELIGION, n. 791.)
