JEHOVAH IS SLOW TO ANGER, AND GREAT IN POWER, AND WILL BY NO MEANS CLEAR THE GUILTY – Nahum 1

God’s justice required that such evil be punished in Nineveh; and it still does to this very hour!

THE FIRST AND SECOND FULFILLMENTS – Mark 13

At least two themes are interwoven: prophecies concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, and warnings concerning the second coming of Christ.
