Bible Question:
When Jesus is saying "This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." who is the generation he was speaking of? Matt. 24:34 34--- Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. |
Bible Answer: Shalom Kcabm, Some theologies say He was talking about the generation to whom He was speaking, therefore, they believe that the 70AD events were the fulfillment. The majority (myself included) believe what was meant is that the generation in which "these things" beigns will not pass away before all the things have happened. (After all, it is generally agreed upon that the period of time is only about 7 years, with perhaps a 5-10 yr. period leading up to the 7-yr Tribulation.) Some believe that those saved won't see any part of the 7-yr period (pre-trib), some believe that the saved living at that time will see some of the Tribulation (pre-wrath), some believe that the born-again will see all of it (post trib), and some believe that He returned in 70AD and we are now in the 1000 year millenium (preterist).
