1 | Matt 16:28 some and see | Matt 16:28 | following him | 127670 | ||
Tim Moran; I have a question regarding the greek in this particular scripture if you don't mind answering it? The word "some"...I looked it up myself and found that it could mean "one". Is this an acurate accessement? I see that there might be a connection to John 21:21-23 regarding John only and not refering to several people. Also the word "see" does it imply experiencing the kingdom not just watching it. If it is just a visual observation then this scripture could very well be refering to the vision John was to receive on Patmos. He indeed saw Christ coming into His kingdom in that vision. Grace to you brother |

OK.. you're probably waiting an answer from Mr. Moran, but please excuse me as I interject. Read Matt 16:28 in context. It is referring to the Lord coming in judgement. What can we discern? (1) Jesus was saying he would return in Judgment (2) Jesus would return in THAT generation (before all standing there died). What historical event fits the bill? The destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 and no other. Neither the Transfiguration or the John's vision on Patmos include a "reward/judgement" event. There is no need to try and twist the plain language found here. http://www.preterism.info. | ||||||

Searcher, Matt 16:27 "For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done." I believe that the phrase "reward each person for what he has done" implies a judgment event. Among other reasons, the Transfiguration and the events of Acts 1 and 2 simply came too soon. "... standing here will not taste death" implies that some would taste death, which implies a event further off. The events surrounding the destruction of Jerusalem are a better fit and are in line with Jesus other proclamations regarding that would happen to "this generation" (in the first century). |

Hi Fatherof4, If you really like the study of eschatology there is a great book out called, “The Sign”. It’s the best that I have ever read on the subject! You also might want to check out this web site. http://www.solagroup.org/ CDBJ |
