Kim begins looking at Romans 8 in this study. Imminency, persecution, and glory are key themes that must be carefully studied in this passage in light of many other New Testament passages. First century believers were "eagerly awaiting" something to happen in their day. What are the "birth pangs" Paul writes about in Romans 8:22? What was this new thing that was being brought into existence in Paul's own day?

This section deals with what the New Testament calls the โlast daysโ (Heb. 1:2), which covers the time from Jesus' ascension to the Rapture of the Church (1 Thess. 4:13โ18). It is very clear from this section that the Rapture of the Church is not some โway of escape from sufferingโ as some present it. The whole history of the Church is one of affliction and persecution. This is, in fact, the normal Christian experience (2 Tim. 3:12). It is worth noticing that Matt. 24:4โ8 covers the same historical time frame as Revelation 1โ3. However, since Jesus is addressing Israel here, the โsignsโ of the times are the main focus. Revelation 1โ3, written to the Church, focuses on conditions existing within the Church body and a call to continued spiritual purification. A. The Two Great Dangers, Matthew 24:4โ6 The first great danger to believers is deception. The devil is a deceiver (John 8:44), and this is his greatest weapon against us. Just as he deceived Eve in the Garden, he seeks to deceive each one of us (Gen. 3:1โ8; 1 Tim. 2:14; 2 Cor. 11:3). This deception comes from โfalse christs and false prophetsโ (Matt. 24:11, 24, see 1 Tim. 4:1โ2). The second great danger is fear. Remember that fear and faith cannot live together (see Luke 21:34โ38). B. Increasing Birth Pangs (Historical Trends), Matthew 24:7โ8 It is my conviction, from simply taking Scripture literally, that the Rapture of the Church occurs at this point, between Matthew 24, verses 8 and 9 (see 1 Thess. 4:13โ5:11; 2 Thess. 2:1โ8; esp. Rev. 4:1). Jesus does not deal with it here, because the Church is still an unrevealed โmysteryโ (see Eph. 3:1โ10). There are many today who reject the teaching of the Rapture of the Church (1 Thess. 4:13โ18), because they think it is a โcowardlyโ hope of weak Christians to escape the Tribulation. In light of the past 2,000 years of church history, this is a foolish notion. It has been the portion of believers throughout world history to suffer affliction and severe persecution, even to horrible torture and execution. The Church has surely paid her dues. Furthermore, we do not know what trials await us, even in the times of increasing birth-pangs ahead.

Beginning what is sometimes called the "little apocalypse," Jesus tells his amazed disciples that the mighty Temple of Herod, which was a wonder of the ancient world, would one day be destroyed with "not stone resting upon another." What is the Lord telling his disciples? What is he telling us? Pastor Rich reflects on this passage in his sermon entitled "Birthpangs." ย ย
This week we look at Mark 13:1-8, in which Jesus talks about the end of the world - wars, and earthquakes, and famines. That's nothing new - and yet we are called to be people of hope in midst of all circumstances.

Isaiah 66:7-10 discusses the birth pangs of Zion in relation to the arrival and rejoicing of the New Heavens and earth. A pattern has emerged that connects all birth pang texts into one solid, harmonious end. New doors are opened and the story it tells is exciting.

Names, Themes, and Hebrew Idioms associated with Rosh HaShanah: 1. Season of Tโshuvah โ this title, borrowed from the proximity of this particular feast to the Day of Atonement, suggest the attitude that is assumed during this most important time of the year. The Jewish nation as a whole wanted to spiritually prepare their hearts to meet their Creator on the Day of Atonement, hence the title given to the entire time period. As believers in Messiah, we already recognize the significance of his effectual blood sacrifice, thus we too can appreciate the state of mind that the Nation of Israโel was trying to reach. Because many Jewish people as of yet do not have a personal relationship with Yeshua, I feel that their attitude during this time is appropriate, as, according to rabbinical belief, the Messiah could come to vindicate his chosen people during this season. 2. Rosh HaShanah โ as previously stated, this day is recognized and celebrated as the head of the Jewish Calendar year. 3. Yom Tโruah โ because the Torah explicitly commanded Am Yisraโel to sound the shofar on this day, it is called by this name. In Hebrew thought, a shofar is used to sound an โawakening blastโ to the listener. Sometimes the call was to assemble, while at other times, the call was to war. In the case of the latter, usually a trumpet was used, instead of the traditional ramโs horn. At any rate, the Chazal (Sages of Antiquity) taught that the sound that the shofar made during this time period was to awaken the sleeping sinner from his spiritual slumber, and challenge him to make tโshuvah, repentance, unto the LORD his God. Because of this, Yom Tโruah is better translated as โDay of the Awakening Blastโ. A spiritual call to assembly was what the writer of the New Covenant had in mind, when he penned the famous words in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17. That quite a few believing Gentiles and Messianic Jews (myself included) teach that our Messiah could return on or around this season, is no small secret. We would do well to study this feast more in our non-Jewish Church settings. 4. Yom haDin โ translates as โThe Day of Judgmentโ. On this day, the rabbis believed that three great books in heaven were opened, and HaShem the Almighty Judge would weigh each manโs worth (Talmud, Rosh HaShanah 6b). During this time period, all of the dead was raised to face the Ancient of Days, linking this day also to the great time period of resurrection. This is quite possibly the time period that Daniโel was referring to in Chapter 7, verse 10, of his book. Also the apocalyptic author John made references to books in Revelation 20:12-15. 5. Chevlai shel Mashiach โ translated as โthe Birthpangs of the Messiahโ. This final theme associated with Yom Tโruah is a much-repeated one throughout the Torah, especially in the prophets. The idea that one day there would be a great time of trouble on the earth, focusing primarily on the Nation of Israโel as a people, is a major theme even in some New Covenant passages. Perhaps the most well known passage comes from the book of Jeremiah. In 30:4-7, the prophet speaks of the coming time of dread and terror as likened to a woman in the pains of childbirth. In other words, the Torah suggests that one day, most likely before the Messiah returns, the peoples of the world, and the Nation of Israโel in particular will have to suffer a horrendous time of โbirthingโ. This โbirthingโ is necessary for the Messiah to be โbornโ. The language here can be confusing if you fail to remember that this is very figurative writing here. The authors employ heavy uses of real life images to convey what they are seeing in the Spirit. We know that Messiah was already born once. Yet, in a spiritual sense, the Torah teaches that all of creation is still waiting for him to be โbornโ. For in this second โbirthโ, the new heavens and the new earth will finally come forth also.
