Again, the larger context is this:

Mat 24:3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?"

Everything listed by Christ in his response is a sign of his second coming at the end of the age.

I never have understood how anybody, who understands the Gospel message, becomes so preoccupied with sin, unless they are still a slave to some type of sin, such that their perspective of God isn’t from fellowship, but from a guilty conscience.

We are to resist temptation, but that is a natural consequence of loving Christ. As soon as we set our aim on avoiding sin, instead on faith in Christ, we immediately become prey for any distraction to set us away from faith in Him.
