Jesus’ Parousia and The Final Day of Judgement

The “Red Letter Second Coming” Jesus laid out for His disciples is simple and clear if you interpret it in light of the 4 questions/categories in Matt 24:3.

Matt 23:29-39. Judgement > Generation
Matt 24:1-2. Destruction > Jerusalem
Matt 24:3. Questions: When & Sign? (Destruction of Temple and Parousia/Coming)
  DOJ - when?
  DOJ - signs?
  Parousia - when?
  Parousia - sign!
Matt 24:4-14. Gospel | Nations | Tribulation
Matt 24:15-28. DOJ | Warnings | Tribulation
Matt 24:29-31. Parousia
Matt 24:32-25:40 When | Be Faithful/Wise/Ready
Matt 25:31-46. The Final Judgement

The last days, between Jesus’ first and second coming, will be marked by tribulation (Matt 24:29). His coming is both visible and audible in the heavens throughout the whole earth, and he will separate the gathered humanity into two groups for judgement, one to eternal punishment and one to eternal life.
