10 Comments on Last 24 Hours of Jesus’ Life, Mapped
HE WILL BE BACK, DESCEND UPON THE MT OF OLIVES, AND MARCH TRIUMPHANTLY ONTO THE TEMPLE MT, WHICH I BELIEVE WILL HAVE BEEN RID OF THE DOME OF THE ROCK AND THE AL AQSA MOSQUE AND REPLACED WITH THE THIRD TEMPLE
FROM THERE, HE WILL IMPOSE JUSTICE, AND HE WON’T BE IN A GOOD MOOD
HAPPY GOOD FRIDAY!!

We have been gifted intellect, discernment, and hands. I think we have disappointed God. We could stop evil, we have chosen not to.
I am more guilty of such than most. I have the means and the capability. I will have no good answers for my failures come the reckoning.

BENITO! HAPPY HOLY WEEK!
I’VE RECENTLY LEARNED THAT THE 3RD TEMPLE SITE IS ALREADY PREPARED FOR REBUILDING. THIS I LEARNED FROM A DISCUSSION BETWEEN MESSIANIC JEWS WHO ARE INTIMATE WITH PROPHECY.
EVERY DAY IS ANOTHER DAY CLOSER TO HIS RETURN. HALLELUJAH!
KEEP WATCH AND PRAY.

The timeline is great and the Biblical references to His suffering for us superb, but Im not sure about the actual mapping as the place was leveled except for the watchtowers and the Western wall of the Temple by the victorious forces of Titus under Emperor Vespasian in 70 AD. This would have included whatever structure hosted the Last Supper. And as for some of the the trees from the Mount of Olives surviving from when Jesus walked as a man to this very day, well, Josephus documents that whatever trees were not stripped from miles around to build siegeworks for 3 separate sieges of the lower city wall, upper city wall, and temple (and also replaced a couple of times when Jewish defenders burned them) were used to crucify the Jews who escaped after the continuing resistance pissed the Romans off enough to quit accepting refugees.
…here, let me let him take the narrative;
“When caught [by the Romans] they [the fugitives] were forced to offer resistance, and when the fighting ended it seemed too late to sue for mercy. Scourged and subjected before death to every torture, they were finally crucified in view of the wall [of Jerusalem]. Titus indeed realized the horror of what was happening, for every day 500—sometimes even more—fell into his hands. However it was not safe to let men captured by force go free, and to guard such a host of prisoners would tie up a great proportion of his troops. But his chief reason for not stopping the slaughter was the hope that the sight of it would perhaps induce the Jews to surrender in order to avoid the same fate. The soldiers themselves through rage and bitterness nailed up their victims in various attitudes [or postures] as a grim joke, till owing to the vast numbers there was no room for the crosses, and no crosses for the bodies”
-Flavius Josephus, Jewish Wars 5.449–51, translated by G.A. Williamson.
…so the whole area was deforested, and its unlikely the olive trees predating it by 40 odd years were spared.
…so while we can trust Biblical accounts of our Lord’s suffering for us and the horrific torments He took on our behalf, specific buildings and geography is pretty tough to nail down given that the utter destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans (as prophesised by Jesus Himself in Matthew 24:1-2) and the fact that this was neither the first nor last time Jerusalem was destroyed (the war Josephus documents here is “The FIRST Jewish War”, if that tells you anything), and given that the structures the apostles occupied with Jesus were in and of themselves quite ordinary and nondescript, I dont think its possible to nail down the geography quite so precisely.
At the end of the day, buildings dont matter.
Only the love of the Lord does.

Thank you, MJA. That was very instructive. It doesn’t matter to me the exact locations, but the timeline and journey our Lord took to accomplish the salvation of those who surrender and believe Jesus is who he said he was, thus changing their hearts and souls into God’s children.
It is finished.

Every eye shall see Him even those that pierced Him.

Dearest Lowell –
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. ~Romans 3:23-24
10 as it is written:
“None is righteous, no, not one;
11 no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;no one does good, not even one.” `Romans 3:10-12
We’ve all come into this fallen world as sinners who tolerate evil. Many love evil and the father of all lies. A holy and righteous God cannot reconcile himself to us without the redeeming intervention of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. We cannot work or “do enough” to win God’s favor.
Happy Easter!
Another sinner who was redeemed, and who will never be able to do enough without Christ

This country kicked God to the curb some time ago, and I believe the results are starting to come in. As bad as they are, well, we haven’t seen anything yet.

FROM THERE, HE WILL IMPOSE JUSTICE, AND HE WON’T BE IN A GOOD MOOD
What will be God’s justice on all who rejected the eternal gospel that was preached to the whole world as a testimony to the nations just prior to the rapture? As it was in the days of Noah…the flood (God’s wrath on those who rejected Him) came and destroyed them all. On the day that Lot left Sodom fire and brimstone fell from heaven and destroyed them all. Jesus said that it would be the same on the day that he comes (back).
The pattern in all three scenarios is the separation occurs on the same day that God’s judgment starts and all who were/will be left behind were/will be destroyed. For those who are standing on earth when they witness millions of people disappear-it’s too late, your fate is sealed (unless you are in the wilderness in Judea). References: Matthew 24:14,15; 36-41; Luke 17:26-30.
