Its not talking about this current age. In
Matthew 24 Jesus said to pray that your flight be in the winter or on the Sabbath, do you pray your flight isn't on the Sabbath? or in the winter?
Every time Jesus or apostles spoke of the end of the world(age) they referred to the time they lived in. At the end of that age there would be a separation from the tares and the wheat. This happened during the "this world" that Jesus said it would.
Mat_13:40.. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
Jesus came at the end of the world to sacrifice himself:
Heb_9:26.. For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Paul said the end of the world was coming upon them:
1Co_10:11.. Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
The general theme of Matt 24 is the end of the age that would come upon them. He was warning them what they would see and experience.
We are not the "you" in Matt 24, it was those he spoke to.
Mat 24:4.. And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:9.. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Who was the you in this text? The disciples he spoke to.
Mat 24:15.. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand
..
"when ye therefore shall see" When he told them they would see it then they count on it they would see it.
Mat 24:33.. So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors...
Mat 24:34.. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled...
"when ye shall see all these things" not they shall see, but you shall see.
This doesn't mean that.
