What does Jesus mean when he says we must receive the kingdom of God like children and that it belongs to those like them?

Because of our union with the risen Christ, we not only share in his death but also in his resurrection from the dead.

Jesus says the church is the city set on a hill that shines with the light of the glory of God in a darkened world.

Like salt, Christians are to flavor the earth with the distinct taste of the kingdom and be a purifying agent in a corrupt world.

If the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 is a significant eschatological event, then it has implications for OT prophecy and the book of Revelation.

The fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 signals the end of the old covenant order and serves as a type of the final eschatological judgment.

The destruction of Jerusalem served as the culmnation of God's judgment on Israel and part of the vindication of Jesus as the Son of Man.

Jesus is not only in line with the OT prophets but brings their ministries to a climax in his prophetic messages, actions, and predictions.

The destruction of Jerusalem and its temple in AD 70 is a theologically significant event that is foundational to New Testament eschatology.
