Description: In the inaugural message of his eschatology series on the "last days," Bryan prioritizes Scripture's self-interpretation over human traditions or presuppositions, rejecting end-of-world views for the biblical reality of the Old Covenant's close (AD 70). He sets Matthew 24 as the prophetic nexus, linking it to Matthew 23's judgment on Pharisees (echoing temple corruption woes) and Psalm 118's Messianic stone/triumphal entry fulfilled in Jesus as the new gate/temple. Cosmic signs (sun/moon/stars) are unpacked via Isaiah 13's historical precedent for covenant judgments, not literal apocalypse. Bryan urges connecting NT texts to OT contexts (Deut. 32's final generation, Daniel's 70 weeks) for unassailable truth, previewing deeper ties in future studies to dismantle contradictions and affirm fulfilled prophecy. Speaker: Bryan Ingham (Elder) Scripture citations: Matthew 23; Matthew 15:1-9; 2 Thessalonians 2:4; Genesis 3:15, Romans 16:20; Colossians 1:24; Zechariah 1:1; 2 Chronicles 24:20-22; 1 Thessalonians 2:15-16; Isaiah 26:21; Psalm 118; Matthew 24:1-3; Isaiah 13; Deuteronomy 32; Daniel 7: 25-27; Daniel 9; Revelation 18:24.
