No it doesn't. It tells us to watch for the signs of it. Actually, the "be alert" warnings were addressed to those who heard our Lord in first-century Israel. The prophecies of Jesus concerning the end of the Jewish dispensation were fulfilled in 70 AD -- and those who heeded His warnings escaped with their lives.
We, today, look back upon the fulfilled prophecies of our Lord with grateful assurance that the one unfulfilled prophecy -- the final resurrection -- will take place as scheduled. Not to worry.

Didn’t those that escaped with their lives, still die?
