1 | This generation will not pass away.... | Bible general Archive 4 | Vintage68 | 214211 | ||
Hi John "Matthew 3:7, "Generation of vipers" equals brood of vipers." Jesus was talking to the people present with Him, I would then say that they would fall into the catigory of the people in 24:34. His contemporaries. "24:34, "This generation" equals the persons then living contemporary with Christ." You have made the point, they were the contemporaries of Christ. All of the other verses that I listed, were to be able to see that both John, and Jesus were talking about, and to the people of that Generation, not to some generation in the far distant future, in particular us at the end of the age. All of the verses used are in context to the time of Jesus, they were also used by Him, about the Jews then living in Israel. So they should not to be confused with any other use of the word generation. Vintage68 |

Hi Vintage68 Most of the verses used make the point fairly well, but some are a little bit ambiguous. I don't see in Scripture or anywhere else that the Queen of the south or the men of Nineveh have risen up in judgment yet, but other than that it seems to make the point fairly well. There is still some debate about the time-line of some of the prophase however. Just my two cent's I don't like to be dogmatic about eschatology. There have been some very well respected and godly theologens through the ages, much smarter then me, by the way, that were dead wrong. :-) John |
