Can you tell me what does this mean ..?- Matthew 24:29?

Question

the next text from the bible:'' Mathew 24:29 '' Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened and the moon shall not give her light and the stars shall fall from heaven , and the powers of heaven shall be shaken''.

I am not an english speaker..but it doen't seem ok to me..in this form..the text to me says that even the powers of Heaven will be shaken ..and we know that the first power of Heaven is God..and He will shake the world ..we cannot say'' God will be shaken''..we also cannot say ..that the angels of heaven are also shaken by God ..as long as they are in grace ..the punishmentt is for us not for them..

Thank you...

I don't understand what it means'' the powers of Heaven shall be shaken''..

It seems to me that the correct sentence is..'' the powers of heaven shall shake the sky '', or ''the powers of heaven shall shake the world'' or just '' the powers of heaven will rock '' or the powers of heaven will shake up ''..

Any ideas please?

Answer 1

When Jesus speaks of the "powers of the heavens" He is reffering to the sun, moon, and stars. This is why in the same passage Jesus says that the stars will fall from the sky. In Matthew 24, Jesus is talking of the signs that will take place before His return.The world's problems are almost overwhelming—and not just because of the wars and conflicts that grab the headlines. Every day, millions of people all over the world face a host of other disasters: famine, disease, economic chaos, racism, ecological and natural catastrophes, and so forth.

Do these mean Jesus' second coming is very near? It certainly may be, because He indicated that just before He comes again the world 's problems will increase. He declared, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places" (Matthew 24:7). While these problems are part of every age, the Bible says they will increase in intensity toward the end.
The only final answer to our problems is Jesus Christ, for when He comes again, He will rule the world with perfect justice and peace. In that day, the Bible says, "He will reign ... with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever" (Isaiah 9:7).
The Bible cautions us against trying to set the date for Jesus' second coming. But it also urges us to be ready and watchful "while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ" (Titus 2:13). Are you ready for that day? You can be, by committing your life to Christ today.
For those who know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, most of the terrible things that are coming upon the world will not be for us. Jesus will rapture or take us away into Heaven before the Tribulation and reign of AntiChrist.

Answer 2

The details in the bible clearly states what it meant... u may take it literally only if u r prepared to see these things coming into real life.. try to open ur eyes and heart God is speaking clearly to u...
Actually i havent seen this script not until id been reborn in faith. It was 5 years ago when i encountered this message from readings of St. Matthew and God gave me the wisdom that it will REALLY HAPPEN at the end days. You are so blessed to see this script so that u may become a better person and always pursue in doing good things to others especially your family who needs you most. These are the things to contemplate upon while we are waiting for the second coming of the Lord..

So dont let things for granted and choose only what u want to see. Because when it is written in the script we must accept it under the grace of God, we will fully understand what it means.

God bless You

Answer 5

The Antichrist and the Eucharist:

- The abolition of the Eucharist will be the first act of the Antichrist
- The Eucharist is the "restrainer" which withholds the coming of the Antichrist
"The Abomination of Desolation" in Matthew 24:15-20:
This is the time of the Coming of the Antichrist... and his very first work will be the abolition of the Eucharist!
"When you see the Abomination of Desolation, of which Daniel spoke, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand)..." (Matt.24:15).
When you go to "Daniel", he describes the horrors of this "Abomination" in 4 places: Daniel 8:11-17, 9:26-27, 11:31-32, 12:11.
This Abomination refers to the abolition of the Eternal Sacrifice and the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem... but Daniel states that "the vision refers to the time of the End" (8:17), and Jesus himself refers us to it in Matt.24:15, and it will be the very first thing the Antichrist will do, the abolition of the Eucharist!, as reported here by Jesus.
This "Abomination" in Daniel consists of 5 facts:
1- "Abolished the perpetual sacrifice" (Dan.8:11): And as a logical consequence, if there is no "sacrifice", there will be no "altar", and no "priests" to offer it... this is the main and most important feature, described by Daniel in his four descriptions of the Abomination in the Holy Place.
2- "Threw down his sanctuary" (Dan.8:11).
3- "Shall destroy the city" (Dan.9:26).
4- "He magnified himself even to the prince of the host" (Dan.8:11).
5- By his deceit he shall make some who were disloyal to the covenant apostatize (an.11:26).
The reign of the Antichrist will last for 7 years, as described in Daniel 8:14 and Revelation 13:5: The "Abomination" will last for 3½ years, and the "Great Tribulation" for another 3½ years, or 42 months, or 1,260 days (Rev.13:5, 11:2-3, 12:5, Dan.12:11-12).
John tells us that the Antichrist is already with us (1Jn.4:3), and Paul says that the Antichrist is already at work (1Thes.2:6-8).
The Jews already have this Abomination: They have no sacrifice, no altar, no priests, no temple... as it was prophesied it will happen after the coming of the Messiah! (Daniel 8:11-17, 9:26-27, 11:31-32, 12:11).
For many Protestants this "Abomination" means very little, because they already do not have the "perpetual sacrifice", nor "sanctuary", nor "altar", nor "priests"...
The Orthodox already do not have the "prince of hosts", nor "the city".
Many Catholics may wonder how come the Holy Mass and priests could be abolished... but this already happened partially at the coming of Muhammad when there were 800 Christian bishops in Africa, among them St. Augustine, and in a few years there were reduced to just 5!... the "remnant" always mentions by Isaiah. And when Martin Luther came, in a few years millions of Christians were left without sacrifice, altar, and priests... So, this is what it will happened at the coming of the Antichrist during the Abomination of Desolation, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will be abolished, and consequently there will be no need for altars nor priests to celebrate it... and, of course, a "remnant" will be left!.
The "restrainer": "the one who holds back the Antichrist":
St. Paul tells us twice what withholds the Antichrist to appear, in 2Thess.2:6,7... and that "restrainer", "the one who holds back the Antichrist", is Jesus in the Eucharist!... when the Sacrifice of the Holy Eucharist is abolished, the Antichrist will appear with full force!... right now, says Paul, the Antichrist, the mystery of iniquity is already at work, but restrained by the Eucharist, and his work will start in full when the Abomination of Desolation comes, when the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the Altar and Priests will be taken away.
This is how Paul say it in 2Thes.2:6-8:
6: And now you know what is holding him back (the man of lowslessness), so that he may be revealed at the proper time.
7: For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back, the restrainer,
will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.
8: And then shall that Wicked be revealed...
The Antichrist and the Eucharist:

The Immense Value of the Eucharist:
- Only one Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is worth more "adoration" to God than all human beings prostrated for one year!, because it is Christ, God offered, with an infinite value!... I adore you my God.
- Only one Holy Sacrifice of the Mass has more "thanksgiving" value than all the angels praising God for all eternity!... it is an infinity value of thanksgiving!... thank you, my sweet prisoner of Love.
- Only one Holy Sacrifice of the Mass has more penitential value than all the monks of all times making penance at the same time!... praise be my Lord and my God, Jesus Christ... it is the main source to bring souls out of Purgatory
- Only one Holy Sacrifice of the Mass has more value of "petition" to God than all humans and Angels and Saints praying together for a sick person!... it is God!... glory to you Jesus, my love and my all!.
- Only one Holy Sacrifice of the Mass!... Thank you my Jesus for your excess of love.
...And now you can have it... free... go and receive Him... daily... discerning!... when the final Antichrist comes it will be very difficult to find it!. Now the Holy Mass is celebrated 500.000 times daily all over the world. When I went to Japan, I thought it would be difficult, and it came out very easy: Just across the Japanese Garden of the Hotel there was the Church of St. Francis Xavier. In all my trips abroad I have received the Eucharist daily: In Communist China, India, Africa, North, Central and South America, in Australia, in Communist Russia, Poland and Yugoslavia, and all Europe... it's so available, and so free!... let's receive Him daily... every day!... He is madly in love with us!... come, my sweet Jesus, live in me, be my daily bread, to nourish others with my crosses. Thank you my Love.
Really Real!...Metanoia!
The Most you can have on Earth... and in Heaven!... the Most God can Give!
The Jesus of Bethlehem or at Calvary is exactly the same one who is in the Eucharist... a problem is that many people who met Jesus on earth didn't know he was God!... do you remember in Nazareth?: "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary?" (Mr.6:3)...
... What would you have done if you had met Jesus on earth, and you knew he was God?... well, the same Jesus is now in the Eucharist!... with the same body and blood and soul and divinity... he is God... in love with you... waiting for you!.
Real is the word... really God!... the real presence of God Himself!
God is love... and God is humility:
At Bethlehem he looked like a baby, he could not talk nor walk... God could not walk!... he had to be fed and cleaned... and he was really God!... the only one God!...
In the Eucharist is still more humble: He looks less than a human, less than an animal or a plant, he looks just like bread and wine... he tastes like bread and wine... and he is God!... really the only one God... the same one who created the universe, the one who gave you your hands and feet and heart, the one who gives you daily the air and sun and water, and the trees and mountains and the butterflies... all the scientists have been unable to make not even a leaf of a tree!... the Jesus Christ of the Eucharist made them all!.
At Calvary he looked like a criminal... but he was God!... shedding his blood to save you and me.
... In the Eucharist is the same Jesus Christ... with the same love and suffering than at Calvary... he was at the Cross for 6 hours... in the Eucharist he is already for 2000 years!... loving you, waiting for you!... patiently... often abandoned and ignored, offended and even blasphemed by many... and His worst suffering is the lukewarm and indifference of those who claim to know Him!...
God is in love with you!... madly in love with you!... he is waiting for you daily, like a good lover... let yourself be loved... go every day to receive Him in the Eucharist... He wants to be the our daily bread of Matt.6:11, and if we do not eat his flesh and do not drink his blood, we will not have life in ourselves (Jn.6:53, 1Cor.11:29-30)...
... God Himself is really in love with you!... whoever you may be!... "For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men" (1Cor.125)... Yes, Paul calls God "a fool", "a madman", when he sees Him at the Cross and in the Eucharist... and full of "weakness", when He makes Himself like a man or just like bread and wine... but a weakness stronger than the universe!...
... There, at the Cross and in the Eucharist is all you need in life, the solution of all your problems on earth, and the most God can give to you!... even God, being God, can not give you more than Himself made just bread and wine!... praise the Lord.
Yes, Metanoia!
