the generation that saw the jews return are prety much gone.. My father was 6 years old. he just died and he was 83..
Specific date setting is the last thing a Christian wants to do bro.
We know the times and seasons......but no man knows the day or the hour.
I am giving it a 10-20 year window (more like a 0-20 year window lately), but promoting the exact year?
This is to be discouraged. Only the Father, who issues the command to the Son to harpazo His bride, knows for sure.
1Th 5:1
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
Mat 24:36
But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Mat 25:13
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
hopefully you are not just against calvinism. Hope your against the legalistic church also. they are just as evil. preaching eternal life is not eternal but must be earned, Not unlike the jews of Pauls dayI use the term "Calvinism" for all teachings which are not the truth (TULIP) both repackaged modern and old.
Of course there are many correct teachings in the Reformed world but those that work against the message of the simple Gospel and its power for salvation and the character of God, nah not having it.
Like I said......10-20 years.
This generation may also mean the uninterrupted family line of the house of Jacob. Perfectly acceptable and applicable IMO.
Mat 24:34
Verily I say unto you, This generation G1074 shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
G1074 - genea - Strong's Greek Lexicon (kjv) (blueletterbible.org)
- fathered, birth, nativity
- that which has been begotten, men of the same stock, a family
- the several ranks of natural descent, the successive members of a genealogy
- metaph. a group of men very like each other in endowments, pursuits, character
- esp. in a bad sense, a perverse nation
- the whole multitude of men living at the same time
- an age (i.e. the time ordinarily occupied be each successive generation), a space of 30 - 33 years
Well, Christ did all the work and to believe otherwise is works based. No thank you. Believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.
It's disgusting to see false teachers promoted again and again.
They don't know or respect the Bible. Their god is money and attention . They don't know scripture nor do their believers. It's sad.
“But of that DAY and HOUR no one knows,
not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only”

The lukewarmness that I see today has nothing whatsoever to do with so-called Calvinism. Calvinists (I am not a Calvinist or anything else in particular BTW) tend to be quite old-school puritanical in lifestyle generally.
It has everything to do with worldliness (did I say worldliness? Let me say it again "worldliness". Listening to occultic rock stars, seeking first after wealth, prosperity etc etc), carnality, unholiness, false doctrine, and.....well.....fake bogus Christians overwhelming the Church.
IMO, I have attended supposed Churches where I honestly wondered if there was ONE SINGLE TRUE BELIEVER in attendance!
Just ***** like ***** Laodocea.
Which to me is yet another palpable sign that the end-times are at the very threshold.
If you have access to any secret, newly found unique manuscripts. PLEASE provide them to trustworthy Elder fiduciaries at a truly believing Church ASAP.Fair enough, it was a question I was asking. Personally, I believe the modern day, watered down Bible versions are the culprit.
I am aware that ancient manuscripts are still being discovered. But as far as I know they do not vary much from what those that the scholars who compiled the KJV had used.
Please post anything remarkable you might be using. I would love to review them myself.
OK I see it. Well......I am a pre-tribber so I cannot agree with any of that business at all either.
OK I get what you are saying there. Not really my interpretation of Jesus' statement though.
"the generation that saw the jews return are prety much gone "
That is the event that I thought was the starting point you were referring to.....
OK. I think that is quite a stretch given v. 36, 37, 42 etc. were it seems that the world is at relative peace before it all hits the fan at the opening of the 1st thru 6th seal. By mid-trib the earth is in seriously bad shape and a huge portion of the population has been killed.
I have changed my view a couple of times, but as of now my estimation is to roll waaaaayyy back to verse 2.
Consequently the term "this generation" refers to the line of Jacob, who will endure ALL of biblical prophecy.
They will survive 70AD, the Church age all the way thru the 70th week tribulation to the SC.
The statement of verse 34 then becomes an iron clad guarantee that the Jewish people will be miraculously preserved in effect.
Mat 24:34
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
I was a 1948 guy for a long time. And....it may turn out to be that way in the end. Who really knows for sure?
Which makes the case of Israel being backin there land over a generation ago..
