The apocalyptic beliefs of the first Christians have been proved to be false. It is clear from the New Testament that they all expected the Second Coming in their own lifetime. And, worse still, they had a reason, and one which you will find very embarrassing. Their Master had told them so. He shared, and indeed created, their delusion. He said in so many words, ‘this generation shall not pass till all these things be done.’ And he was wrong. He clearly knew no more about the end of the world than anyone else.

>>542240820This was fulfilled through the transfiguration of Jesus in the mountain when he took some of the disciples with him. This was just a vision.>(Matthew 16:28) Truly I say to YOU that there are some of those standing here that will not taste death at all until first they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.”6 days later...>(Matthew 17:1, 2) Six days later Jesus took Peter and James and John his brother along and brought them up into a lofty mountain by themselves. 2And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone as the sun, and his outer garments became brilliant as the light.Both Mark and Luke also linked Jesus’ comment about the Kingdom with the account of the transfiguration. (Mark 9:1-8; Luke 9:27-36) Jesus’ coming in Kingdom power was demonstrated in his transfiguration, his appearing in glory in the presence of the three apostles.Peter verifies this understanding by speaking of “the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ” with regard to his witnessing Jesus’ transfiguration.>(2 Peter 1:16-18) No, it was not by following artfully contrived false stories that we acquainted YOU with the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but it was by having become eyewitnesses of his magnificence. 17For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when words such as these were borne to him by the magnificent glory: “This is my son, my beloved, whom I myself have approved.” 18Yes, these words we heard borne from heaven while we were with him in the holy mountain.It was fulfilled in the mountain through the transfiguration

>>5422408201 Thessalonians 5:2For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.2 Peter 3:10But the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat. The earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.Revelation 16:15Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”
>>542245160The end is only for Gods own, the wheat. To sparate the two, a process is called winnowing which is to toss and allow the wind to take the lightwieght chaff. Thats why everything is so openly satanic, your being tossed about to see what you are, and you cant watch it and say i didnt know. If you think this is the best its ever been then you are definately chaff.
>>542240820I think he said "Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." "Some of you who are standing here" pretty much confirms he was literally talking about the people he was preaching to right in front of him. All the hundreds of ways people have tried to misinterpret that to mean historical ages or dispensations or the church over the past 2000 years is just pure cope.
>>542245953they did see both the transfiguration and the ascension literally right after Jesus said this.Jesus also told the people the kingdom had been taken from them and will be given to a future generation and NOBODY knows when that generation will be except the Father.You failed the book report, anon.
>>542246107>some who are standing here will not taste deaththis outright says that he would come back within their lifetime. Has jesus come back yet and established his kingdom?

Muslims believe that jesus and Mohammad are going to reappear in Damascus and prevent the apocalypse and afterwards there will not be such a thing as a Christian or a Muslim.
