About the Christ's Return article.
1. Matt 24:3 is a two part question in Koine Greek, not two separate questions. Some English translations don't reflect this well.
2. The article contradicts Daniel 7's order of events. According to Daniel 7, the Son of Man is seen coming & receiving the Kingdom (7:13,14) before anyone makes war with the holy ones (7:21), and then the Kingdom is given to the holy ones. Yet the article concludes the Son of Man comes after the Great Tribulation. Since Jesus was referring back to Daniel, he wouldn't contradict Daniel, so the conclusion in the article must be misunderstanding something Jesus says.
The article also does not really support Jesus statement that "The Kingdom...is not coming with striking observableness". (Luke 17:20) After all, if those signs in Matt 24:29-30 were to happen as signs of the start of the Son of Man's coming, it would be strikingly observable, wouldn't it?
