@SteveBenner5 I 💯 agree! Far more importantly to Jesus…what was meant is the Reformation did set people free in truth by giving everyone access to Scripture but the church institution kept the mission & discipleship rather than releasing people the “church”

But Jesus said in Matthew 24:34 that "this generation" would not pass away until all of Matthew 24 was fulfilled. This requires that the entire prophecy was fulfilled in 70 AD. Actually no. For one, in the same breath Jesus equated the passing of "this generation" with the passing away of heaven and earth. (Matt. 24:35). This is the first clue that the passing away of this generation will occur in the distant future, when the New Heavens and the New Earth are established, after his Second Coming. Second, the Greek and Hebrew words for generation do not only refer to people born within a very narrow window of time, like a Millennial, a Boomer, etc. We mostly use generation this way in English, so that's what throws people off. But in Greek and Hebrew the word generation (genea/dor) can also have a qualitative aspect, meaning, it can refer to certain *types* of people, no matter when they were born. See Phillipians 2:15, where Paul refers to the "crooked and perverse generation (genea)" (same word as Matthew 24:34). Here Paul is not referring to people who were born within a 40 year window or something. He is just referring to evil people, and the same holds true in Matthew 24:34. When Jesus speaks of "this generation," he is speaking about all of evil humanity, from the Fall to the Second Coming. He is telling his disciples that evil humanity will persist until his Second Coming, and that "this generation," which has existed since Adam, will only disappear after all the words of the prophets have been fulfilled at the end of this age. There is nothing in Matthew 24:34 that requires a 70 AD fulfillment of this prophecy.

Netanyahu showed Oct 7 truth with receipts. Maps. QR codes. Hostages remembered. The world? Walked out. Psalm 2: The nations rage, but the King still reigns.

Christians—remember: nations will be judged on how they treat Israel. Stand with God’s Word, not the crowd. And I would argue we all will be. Aim to be the righteous among the nations. 7/7

But Psalm 2 already said: “The nations rage… the kings plot in vain.” 6/7

Netanyahu brought props: maps, cards, even a QR code to Oct 7 footage. Hopefully some saw the truth. 1/7

@JimwFossum I’d still say there are many that would espouse a other view but teach Scripture as amill or postmill on top of that 50%

Wow, I'm starting to think the majority of Christians are antisemitic... who is going to tell them Jesus and the disciples are Jews...

@Yeshualives7 I never was anti-Israel but at same time likely saw the Old Testament very symbolic and didn’t get it, it took a journey of the Lord opening my eyes, I hope that others can have the same happen.

@standfirmjake I’m aghast and never would have believed this could happen. They will be judged by the G-d of Israel.
