This Generation(the Generation Of Jesus Crucifixion) Shall Not Pass Till... by paxonel(m): 6:38am On Jan 31, 2021 |
These were the words of Jesus Christ in Matthew 24 Matthew 24:34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Matthew 24:35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. What generation was he talking about? He was talking about the generation of the time of his crucifixion (remember, it was time Jesus was about to be crucified when he made that statement to his disciples) So, that generation of his disciples did not pass away until everything he said in Matthew 24 was fulfilled. If that is so, why are we Christians in this generation scared of rapture, where then is the rapture coming? You have a major responsibility to live your life today and live it effectively without any atom of fear |

paxonel: paxonel:1. How long biblically speaking, is a generation? 2. Does the word 'rapture' appear in the original text of the Bible? |

sonmvayina:You didn't have the courtesy to answer my question before asking yours. I'll give you the answer to your question, after you've answered my question first |

BassReeves:it depend on the context of the scripture in question. Like that of Matthew 24 ,a generation according to what Jesus meant refers to the duration of life of an individual. For instance, the life period of the Pharisees and saduccees era which was the time that was prophesied by Daniel that Christ will be crucified and resurrect. Luke 11:51 |

paxonel:You're absolutely right that it depend on the context of the scripture in question, because a generation in the times of Abraham is 100 years, whereas in other places following, it is around a period of 40 years and truly all that was said in Jesus' prophecy did come to pass within 40 years later, 70 AD to be precise, when the Romans plundered Jerusalem, razed it and the temple to ground. paxonel:Neither am I yet to see, the word 'rapture' appear in the original text of the Bible too. 1 Like |

sonmvayina:The former, of course and I hope you weren't trying to suggest I am coveting that verse and so appropriating it to myself. BassReeves: sonmvayina:Deuteronomy 2:7 The LORD has helped us and taken care of us during the past 40 years that we have been in this huge desert. We've had everything we needed, and the LORD has blessed us and made us successful in whatever we have done. Deuteronomy 2:14 Now from the time we left Kadesh-barnea until we crossed the Wadi Zered was 38 years. All of that generation, the soldiers in the camp, were destroyed just as the LORD swore they would be. Though its actually 38-40 years, I can stomach your 30-40 years answer and live with it. |
