Gospel of Luke.

The passage before us includes Jesus' prophecy that the Jerusalem Temple would be destroyed. This did come to pass in the year 70. But you are probably wondering how Jesus' words about that historical event can speak to us today? Well, our concerns are different in their particularity than were the disciples when they heard this prophecy. However, if you ever feel afraid or uncertain about the future; if you ever worry that God will not show up in the future; if you worry about "wars and rumors of wars" - and who doesn't!?- then you may find Jesus' words very helpful.
