- Jesus made some pretty cryptic statements in the New Testament about future events that seemingly never came to pass. Are we misreading the text, or was Jesus a little off in His predictions? Watch as Frank offers a reasonable solution to this apparent dilemma.

Didn't John see all the events of the last days before he died?
Jesus Christ is/was NEVER wrong! Don’t get it twisted HE is GOD & GOD can’t ever be wrong!
EXACTLY RIGHT GLORY TO GOD!
He said the mustard seed was the smallest seed
Wrong.
Lol. Too easy
@@mattslater2603 God Created ALL things including all seeds, so He knows which is the smallest. Tell me which seed you think is smaller?
Funny man thinking they know more than the ALL-KNOWING GOD.
Except for when he said that the Earth was held up by pillars. And when he said that he loves everyone.

So if your god exists it's responsible for absolutely everything including the atrocious acts committed into children?
Some of which god did itself.
Jesus is NEVER wrong!
Agreed. Its hard to be wrong when you no longer exist.
By the mouth of many witnesses a thing is established. Habakkuk and Ezekiel speak.
Habakkuk 1:9-13 "All come, Hamas, assemble the horde of the east, gather the captives like sand. Mock the ruler, and their judgment a joke, laugh as all strongholds become rubble, seize them, then pass through like the wind, pass through guilty by the strength of your god. From of old Yahweh, He is the god Holy, who died? Yahweh, the appointed judge, and the Rock will establish the judgment. The one who was overcome is pure. He sees the evil's power. Look at the evil. What do you see? Do you favor the ones who do wickedly? Are you silent when the wicked swallow those more righteous than them?"
Habakkuk 3:11-13 "From the east the crescent stood at the heights, walking in the light of the weapons, the radiance of Barack (Husein Obama) from the thrust. There is indignation at his march on the Earth; in anger he trampled the nations. He went forth for the salvation of his people; for the salvation he's anointed. Now strike the head of the house of the wicked; lay him open from thigh to neck, commune with the Lifted High."
Ezekiel 1:13-14 “for the living being was like a consumed ember, a consumed vision upright, shall he walk among living beings, fiery and bright was Barack, he had come out of the consummation. The living beings ran to and fro before the vision of Barack.”
Ezekiel 21:2-5 "Son of man set your face towards Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuary and prophecy against the land of Israel, and say to the land of Israel, "Thus saith Yahweh, "Behold I am against, and the drawn sword from the sheath, and cut off shall be the righteous and the wicked. ON THIS ACCOUNT cut off the righteous and the wicked, thus the drawn sword from the sheath, against all flesh south north, ALL FLESH SHALL KNOW YAHWEH, the drawn sword from the sheath, never to turn back again."""
Ezekiel 21:9-12 “Son of man prophecy and say, Yahweh utters, “a sword, a sword is sharpened and moreover laid bare, sharpened for slaughter the slaughter of laid bare Barack, for shall we rejoice at the son who rejects all the branches of humanity? For it was first given laid bare the handle sharpened and laid bare and set into the hand of the destroyer (Abaddon or Apollyon). Cry out in anguish, son of man. And my people, all the so blessed of God’s Word (Israel) are delivered unto the sword. My people! Thus I shall strike him at the thigh.”
Ezekiel 21:13-15 “Test your community. Truly, also the scepter which despises shall be no more, declares the Lord Yahweh. Son of man prophecy and clap your hands together, the sword twice, and now the third time, the sword pierces, the sword for the great one as it pierces those who indwelt and surrounded them. The inner being (demons) weaken greatly, they were brought down to cause stumbling, All of them are at the gate (of hell). Give them to slaughter by the sword. Alas, they had made Barack (Hussein Obama) and caught themselves up for the slaughter.”
Ezekiel 21:28 “and son of man prophecy and say, All utters Lord Yahweh, towards teaching towards this reproach, say a sword, a sword has been drawn and laid bare for the slaughter to consume Barack.”
Do Job and Moses the earliest writers of the Holy Bible agree with this testimony?
Job 26:6 "naked death before Abaddon, and nothing shall cover them over."
Job 26:13-14 “by his breath the heavens are cleared, his hand shall pierce BARACK, a serpent. Behold ALLAH the end of his ways. How? A whisper, a word, hear the strength and the thunder. Who can discern?”
Deuteronomy 29:25-29 "and they will say, 'ALLAH (the accursed), for they forsook the covenant of Yahweh the God of their fathers, Asshur (he who shall come forth) shall cut off they who were brought out of the land of Egypt.' They will come to serve another god (Allah), and prostrate before a god, Asshur (he who shall come forth) shall know to divide. And the breath of Yahweh shall burn against that land (Palestine whole - see Isaiah 14:29-31) to bring upon all a curse written in this book. Yahweh shall uproot the land in anger, fury of great wrath, to cast another land as it is this day concealed. Yahweh our God. Uncover the Son. For unto the last, this is the observance of all of the words of this book of law."
Deuteronomy 32:41 “Truly I cut into Barack with a sword, for My hand shall accomplish justice, I will turn back the vengeance of My adversaries, to repay all those who hate Me.”
Zephaniah 2:12 "Moreover Cush (horn of Africa black man) I shall slay by My sword."
@@ron88303, so now how many more witnesses beyond four (4) do we need, when the witnesses wrote the Holy Bible and thus are reliable?
Psalms 77:10
"and I uttered, 'it is making me sick, that the year has become the right hand of ALLAH.'"
Psalms 77:18
“The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind, BARACK lit up the whole world. The Earth shall tremble in agitation, shake.”
Psalms 77:16-20
“The waters shall see Elohim, the waters shall see a whirling in the depth, yea, tremble in agitation. The clouds shall pour forth the waters, the skies shall give forth a voice, arrows shall flash. The sound of your thunder was in the whirlwind, BARACK lit up the whole world. The Earth shall tremble in agitation, shake. The traveling was of the sea, the path in the mighty waters, and your footprint shall be known. You led your people as a flock, your hands, Moses and Aaron.”
Psalms 97:4
“BARACK lit up the whole world, the Earth, see it tremble.”
Psalms 97:1-6
“YAHWEH reigns on the Earth so rejoice, many lands shall rejoice in the clouds, a mass surrounded in righteousness, the judgment shall fall on the foundations, for His throne. Fire comes before to consume the adversaries round about. BARACK lit up the whole world, the Earth, see it tremble. The mountain melted like wax before the face of YAHWEH, before the face of YAHWEH, all the Earth. For the heavens declare His righteousness, all the peoples see His glory.”
Job 20:25-29 “Draw out and go through the back, BARACK shall remove all strength, a dreadful overcoming shall flow forth. All is darkness, the reserve he has stored it up, an unfanned fire will devour consuming the survivor in his tent. The heavens shall reveal his iniquity and the Earth will rise up. The increase of his house will desist downward the run forth, the day of his anger. This wickedness of man is the portion of gods, and the inheritance decreed by the Word of God.”
Job 38:35-36 “Can you send BARACK, and make him go and say, “Behold who pierced wisdom in the inward parts to run forth,” also given understanding to the appearing.”
Isaiah 14:14 "ALLAH OBAMA ab (in dark outer garment) dama (I will become) elyown (the god over all things)."
Isaiah 27:1 “In that day YAHWEH will punish the beast of the sea, BARACK, a serpent. The fierce and great and mighty sword ALLAH, the beast of the sea, crooked, a serpent, and He will kill it, the Dragon, ASSHUR, of the sea.”
Isaiah 30:30-33 "YAHWEH the voice of authority, and listen BARACK, for the strength shall be seen as rage in the nostrils and flames shall consume with fire storm in a downpour, the voice of YAHWEH. Asshur will be terrified. He shall strike with the rod. All shall be hit with the rod of punishment, Asshur. YAHWEH will rest at the sound and work in battle, for the wave offering of the battle is a burning of flesh long set in order. Moreover the firm King shall cut deep and large at the pyre in fire and shall stand breathing. YAHWEH shall whirlwind the fire and the brimstone shall ensure all is consumed.”
Psalms 18:13-15 says, "Yahweh thundered from heaven, and Allah uttered his voice, hail of ember and fire, and he sent out arrows, BARACK had an abundance, confused, the channels of the sea appeared the foundations of the world laid bare, by the rebuke of Yahweh at the breath of His nostrils."
2 Samuel 22:14-16 says, "Yahweh thundered from heaven, and Allah uttered his voice, and he sent out arrows and BARACK was confused, the channels of the sea appeared the foundation of the world laid bare, by the rebuke of Yahweh at the breath of His nostrils."
Zechariah 9:14 "Yahweh shall appear over the arrows coming from BARACK. For the Lord, Yahweh, will blow the trumpet, and they will march into the storms of the South."
Daniel 10:6 “His body was tan, his face the appearance of Barack, and eyes a consumed shine; his legs and feet to the eye a burnished bronze, and the sound of his voice where like words given to a multitude.”
Nahum 3:3 “horsemen lift up the sword, and blade pierces Barack, the multitude is slain, and the mass of corpses is innumerable dead bodies, and they stumble over the dead.”
Psalms 144:4-6 “Adam was like unto vapor, for his days were in shadow and culminated. The reach was the heavens for YAHWEH and yet he descended touching the mountain and it smoked. The flash of BARACK dispersed sending forth arrows (nuclear weapons) with noise."
Luke 10:18 "I saw SATAN as BARACK OBAMA."
Matthew 24:27-28 "For as BARACK cometh out of the East and shineth even so far as the West so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man, for wherever the bodies lie so too an EAGLE IN UNION."
Revelation 16:17-19 “For even the seventh was poured, a bowl into the air, great voice came out of the temple from the throne saying, “DONE.” BARACK voiced thunder great, shaking of a manner as never had been from the time man had come into being on Earth, this person was of great lineage, great earthquake like unto this. The great city split into three parts, a city of nations fell, Babylon great was remembered in the sight of God, to give her the cup of wine, PASSION for wrath."
@EmtnlDmg99 The Bible UNSEALED in Revelation 10.
SEALED WORDS God does not want in the Bible is the Quran.
“The destroyer (Abaddon or Apollyon) of Revelation 9:1, 11 comes to Revelation 11:7-15 where the bodies are not buried.
"naked death before Abaddon, and nothing shall cover them over." - Job 26:6
Let us learn of the fifth angel who mentions THE FALLEN ANGEL.
***********************************************************
Revelation 9:1 “Even the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the heavens falling to the Earth, with the key to a bottomless pit.
Revelation 9:11 “having a king over them, the angel of the abyss, his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has a name Apollyon.”
***********************************************************
Revelation 10:1 “I perceived this other strong angel, haven fallen from heaven, clothed in cloud, a rainbow above the head, his face like the sun, his feet like pillars of fire.”
Revelation 10:2 “holding in his hand a little book open, the place of his strength resided in the sea, he exalted his name in the land.”
Revelation 10:3 “He cried out great in voice, a lion roaring, when he cried the seven thunders uttered sound.”
Revelation 10:4 “when seven thunders thundered in the voice that had spoken, I was about to write it down, but I heard a voice from heaven say, “SEAL THE THINGS SHUT SEVEN THUNDERS OUT THAT WHICH IS SPOKEN WRITE IT NOT.”
Allah is the fallen angel & his QURAN shall never pollute the BIBLE.
***********************************************************
“by his breath the heavens are cleared, his hand shall pierce BARACK, a serpent. Behold ALLAH the end of his ways. How? A whisper, a word, hear the strength and the thunder. Who can discern?” - Job 26:13-14
Quran 13:11b-14a says, “Never doeth Allah change the condition of a people, excepting they change themselves, and Allah intendeth evil for all people, and there is no stopping him. Neither doeth he accept an equal. Barack is he who showeth you the face of Allah, giving a fear and a hope, though heavy the clouds and the thunder, exalt and prostrate to him, for even angels fear him, for he sendeth forth thunderbolts, striking whom he wills, while they dispute before the face of Allah, and he is severe in his attack. To him alone are the prayers in truth."
Quran 7:45-47 says, “Who shall avert people from the path of Allah? And who will be declared the maker of deception? They were focused on the Hereafter, disbelievers. Between them shall be a barrier a family of men of Obama, who shall recognize them all by their markings. And one (Barack Obama) shall call out to the companions of Paradise, “PEACE ON YOU.” They shall not have entered, but shall have the assurance. And his eyes shall turn towards the people to be torched for they cry out, “Lord let us not be cast into fire among the wicked” but the man Obama shall say, “I know you by your looks, but none of your riches or pride of life shall avail you now, for these men have sworn that you may never earn the mercy of Allah.” Then he shall turn to his own BARACK (the blessing) shall say, “Come with me to paradise, for you will have nothing to fear, neither regret.””
THIS IS ABOMINATION AND SHALL NEVER APPEAR IN THE BIBLE ACCORDING TO YAHWEH.
***********************************************************
Revelation 10:5 “Even the angel whom I saw standing in the sea and on the land, lifted the right hand to the left in the heavens.”
Revelation 10:6 “and he swore to him who lives forever and ever, who created heavens, Earth, and sea, that time shall be no more.”

There will be two terms and a cut off time and then cometh annihilation the perishing of the end.
Daniel 12:6 "One uttered to the man in linen, who was above the waters of the river, "When shall it be unto, it be unto the end of all wonder?""
Daniel 12:7 "and I heard a man dressed in linen, above the waters of the river, as he raised his right hand to the left toward heaven, and he swore to him who lives forever, "I am appointed a time, I am appointed a time, and the cutting off time, then it will be accomplished to shatter the power of the Holy people, for all of Allah will be accomplished.""
Daniel 12:8 "and I heard, but understood it not, and I said, "Adoni, how shall it end for Allah?""
Daniel 12:9 "and He said, "Go Daniel. For his words are stopped, and affixed to remain at the end of time.""
Daniel 12:10 "and many shall be purged and purified and refined for the wicked and the wicked acts, and not one wicked one will discern, and they shall be brought down prudently to discern."
***********************************************************
There will be two terms a cut off time and then cometh annihilation the perishing of the end.
Daniel 7:21-22 "I kept looking and a horn was waging war with saints and overcame them. Then the Ancient of days came to judgement (resurrection of the dead and physical rapture up) to be given to the holy of the Highest One, and the time had arrived for the saints to possess a kingdom (heaven)."
Daniel 7:23 “it followed the fourth beast, the fourth kingdom (America came out of the Western world) and the Earth had changed, for all kingdoms were devoured on the whole Earth, they were tread down and crushed (apocalypse).”
Daniel 7:24 “for the ten and their horns were of this kingdom (America drew the lines in the Middle East in 1919), ten kings (to be declared in the Middle East of the remains of The Ottoman Empire), arise and another arose after (Barack Hussein Obama in America), changing all the first and ruining three kings (Egypt, Libya, and Tunesia).”
Daniel 7:25 “He will speak against Allah, to wear out the saints of the Highest One, intending to change time to a decree (stop all time - decrees are final), and give his hand a time, and a time, and a cutting off time.”
Daniel 7:26 “But the judgment shall be final and his dominion shall pass away, then annihilation, the perishing of the end.”
Daniel 7:27-28 “He shall reign with dominion great all kingdoms underneath the whole of heavens (HELL), give the people under all of heaven to the people of Allah, for his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall be in reverence and full obedience (the main focus of Islam), for here revelation ended with, Daniel (God is my judge), the thought was greatly alarming, and my face whitened sick.”
***********************************************************
Revelation 10:7 “The day the voice of the seventh angel, when about to sound, even the mystery of a god is finished, announce this good news to the slaves of this prophecy.”
Revelation 10:8 “Even the voice whom I heard from heaven again spoke, saying, Go take the book open in the hand of the angel who stands in the sea and the land.”
Revelation 10:9 “Even I went to the angel saying, “Give me the little book” saying, “Take and eat” making the belly bitter and mouth sweet as honey.”
THE QURAN IS ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR FOR THE BIBLE SHALL CONSUME THE QURAN FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
Revelation 10:10 “I took the little book from the angel’s hand and ate, in the mouth sweet as honey when eaten the stomach was bitter.”
Revelation 10:11 “saying, it is necessary to prophecy again, concerning many peoples of nations one tongue with a king.”
THE MUSLIMS ARE UNIFIED IN SAYING THE WORD IS ARABIC, and they say it is sweet in their tongue, but BITTER TO DIGEST IS THIS ISLAMIC LOVE.
@EmtnlDmg99he existed that's not disputed at all
Frank, thank you for your devotion to the scriptures.
Amen 🙏 brother I never get tired of listening to you answer questions with patience, respect, clarity and wisdom
Quran has many accurate and useful information, I encourage everyone to explore them and read it at least once. 💙
There is also another way of seeing that verse. Jesus said "Truly I tell you some of you will not taste death before you see the Son of man coming in His kingdom" - one of those there was John (we don't know that John was the only one that God gave this insight to out of the group - he is just the only one that wrote it down). He saw the Son of man coming in His kingdom - he wrote about it in Revelation. How many people in the USA watched the Superbowl? they SAW the Superbowl but they were not AT the Superbowl. John SAW what was going to happen and wrote it down before he died, that does not necessarily mean he had to be there and that is what people assume by that passage.
Quran has many accurate and useful information, I encourage everyone to explore them and read it at least once. 💙
But Jesus doesn’t use the singular he uses the plural some
Either he came back or didn’t how is that so hard for people to accept
hello@@Daniel-gq8zq
LORD GOD be with you Sir.
That Isaiah 13 was an interesting point. Never thought about that reference in relation to the Olivet Discourse.
Many prophets use the same language. Joel 2, John in Revelation 6, Jeremiah 31
It is talking about the Day of the Lord or Judgment Day.
Isaiah 13.
Passing chap, 12, which is a mere song of joy, because of the presence of summer, I next come to the burden, oracle, or prophecy of, or concerning Babylon, or winter; for this myth of the year, which I have all along been dealing with, must be made to assume every conceivable form.
Isaiah (the Savior the Sun), the son of Amoz (the zodiac), is the seer or prophet. The noise of the nations of the mountains (summer months) comes from the end of the heaven of the Lord (Jahveh), with the weapons of his indignation (the winter) to destroy the whole land - to stop the growth of vegetation (v. 5), and to lay the land desolate, i.e., to deprive it of the direct rays of the Sun (v. 9). Therefore, howl ye; for the (last) day of the Lord (Jahveh = summer) is at hand; "it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty" (v. 6). This last sentence gives but an imperfect idea of the original keshod mishaddai jabo = " it shall come according to the failure of the breasts;" thus implying the gradual cessation of the summer crops; when "they shall be afraid; pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them" (v. 8).
"This (equinoctial day) of the Lord (Jahveh) cometh cruel, both with wrath and fierce anger" (v. 9); for the constellations, i.e., the six summer constellations, shall not give their (summer) light, the Sun shall be darkened (as in winter), and the moon shall not cause her light (but that of the Sun) to shine (v. 10). Thus, will I, by the hardships of winter, punish the world for their evil, i.e., for getting into the winter hemisphere? Behold, I will stir up the Medes (middle days, or such as partake of winter and summer) against them, which shall not regard silver (summer); and as for gold (spring), they shall not delight in it, for the time will be winter, the iron age (v. 17).
At v. 19 we come to the prophecy of the destruction, or end of Babylon or winter. In her last days, i.e., at the end of winter, Babylon, "the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency," shall be as (it was) when God (Elohim = Aries in summer) overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah (winter), i.e., it shall remain as it was when Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown. The question will naturally arise: What was Babylon's condition at the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah? Was Babylon the same as Sodom and Gomorrah? Of course, the ordinary reader thinks it was destroyed as were Sodom and Gomorrah, and the text seems to bear out that idea. If destroyed as Sodom and Gomorrah were, then must the same phenomena have happened. There must have been a shower of fire and brimstone, and somebody's wife must have been turned into a pillar of salt, etc. (see Gen. 19, for the details).
Again: If it was to remain as Sodom and Gomorrah, then, since there are left no traces of these cities, there can be none of Babylon. This idea is well supported by Dr. Adam Clarke, who relates - "that by the concurrent testimony of modern travelers, no remains, not the least traces of these prodigious works, are now to be found " (comment, in loco.) Babylon (bab = gate; el = ram; on = Sun, the gate of the Ram-Sun, or Eloh = winter solstice) was a mythological city, like all Bible cities. The name may have been transferred to Earth, as in other instances, Heliopolis (Sun-city), etc., for example.
Of course, time past can "never be inhabited," except by creatures of the imagination; "doleful creatures," as satyrs, etc. The owls or ostriches must be left out, as they are not mentioned in the Hebrew text.
That's how it's always been taught to me(using Isaiah)sadly we don't have good churches that teach prophecy very well or some that don't even teach it at all....
@@jct5 You're one of the few. 99% of the Christians I speak with on a daily basis were raised as Dispensationalists.
This is obviously false.
“Babylon (bab = gate; el = ram; on = Sun, the gate of the Ram-Sun, or Eloh = winter solstice) was a mythological city, like all Bible cities.“
Hosea 6:2
“After two days He will revive us;
on the third day He will raise us up,
that we may live in His presence.
2 Peter 3:8
“But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”
The third day starts 2030.
@@DT-rb7ro That's a hard pill for me to swallow. So are you you saying that you believe that we are currently in the second year of great tribulation? Who then is the man of lawlessness? Or are you saying that he will raise us up somewhere in-between 2030 and 2130, since it's still the same "day"? Which still doesn't make sense to me because that passage seems to mean that, to Him, a day and 1000 years are the same. Meaning, as He is eternal, God doesn't measure time the way we do. That's what I get from it. If you're reading that as 1 day = 1000 years, I don't think that's what He's saying...
I agree 2030 to 2033 is the time frame for the end of the age. I don't know yet because certain prophecies have not happened yet.
@@timshanks6729no one knows when man no one
2030 , In God's 1000 years description,
Is the End of the Tribulation , the Second Advent , and the start of the millennium. The total run for Humanity is 7.000 years... We are currently at 5.993-4 years... Add 7 years for the Tribulation , then 1000 years for the Millennial.... And you arrive at 7.000 Years... ( Human time ). God's time will be just 7 days... Referring back to the Creation Account , man was Created on day 6th... and ended before the 7th day . Then he rested for one day , or the 1.000 days of the millennium.
That places the Rapture...THIS YEAR ✝️❤️🇺🇲
Two tiered meaning like a person moved in a house. You inspect, you buy, you sign the paperwork, you move in. So when you say you're moving in its a process, not all at once.
Jesus clearly spoke of prophecies that would take time to fulfill first. His flock that was not of this fold, meaning the gentiles coming to faith and His disciples taking the gospel throughout the world to reach them. There's no way one could interpret His end times prophecies to come soon in that light. Context and using the whole of scripture is essential for that reason.
Or they're just contradictions that bring into question what we can really know about what the historical Jesus actually said vs what was made up to deal with the problem of him not returning as soon as the first Christians thought.
I know it requires an open mind, so most Christians won't see it.
@@spacemoose4726 I don't see what you and an open mind have in common.
@@festushaggen2563 Says the guy who just claimed any contradiction in the bible can't be a contradiction because the bible must be true lol
@@spacemoose4726 The only guy who said that was you. Maybe you should ask him about it. Hope you guys can work it out.
@@festushaggen2563 "Jesus clearly spoke of prophesies that would take time to fullfill"
Jesus also explicitly says he's returning within their lifetime.
"There's no way one could interpret his end times prophesies to come soon"
What argument did you give? Because "context and using the whole scripture is essential."
What context could possibly make Jesus explicitly saying he was returning within their lifetime not mean what Jesus meant returning within their lifetime? You're context is he says something different later. So, how do you know this isn't just a contradiction or added by later Christians to explain why he hadn't returned? You don't. But you know the bible can't be wrong.
The following words from Peter should also be taken in to account.
2Peter 1:16,17
For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, 'This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.'
Amen, and of apostle 1John1.1-4 : - That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
2For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;
3That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
The ay yall are twisting this is crazy
God bless you Sir....thank you for all you do for the gospel!
Wow, best explanation I've ever heard of this. Thanks Frank. Keep up the great work!
Jesus often gave answers that the apostles could not comprehend. We have the gift of hindsight, so we can see the truth in his statements, but at the time the apostles couldn’t.
Why wasn't Jesus clear with them? If he was God, he could have provided them any lacking insight.
@@mattr.1887 if you really want to know the answer then seek it out and you will find it. I’m not getting into a theological debate on a TH-cam comment section.
Jesus was God but he took on a human nature. The disciples would come to understand after he rose. But before that, they wouldn’t understand.
Lol. Okay.
Sounds like he wasn't a very good teacher lol
@@mattr.1887 are you clear with a child when explaining where babies come from? (the birds and the bees)
if Jesus had been clear to them it might've raised more questions, their foreknowledge might've actually ruined the events. they would've tempered with it somehow.
everyone knows they'll die. what you think would happen if they knew the exact time and manner of how they would die?
John during his exile in Patmos was shown visions of the end of the world and the coming of the kingdom of God, so that should count as fulfilment of Jesus' prophecy.
No it’s probably just a made up story.
@@Moist._Robot By what's your evidence?If I may ask?When Jesus Christ said there will be those who claimed to be him masquerading as "Christ" in this era was it a made up story?Atheists like you take things from Christianity and God Almighty to accuse God Almighty and Christianity.
When the Bible prophecied about end time like the love of many will grow cold and we see the action was it messed up?
I was just going to comment that!
@@Moist._RobotThe Disciples died one by one.Tell me can you die for a lie?I wanted to leave Christianity but Jesus came to save me Lord Jesus Christ said he will come.
What the man said here is correct there's no evidence to back up your claim.
Right, he John, literally sees the coming of the kingdom of Christ. And apostle Poul said: - But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 1 Corinthians 2.9-10
Would Jesus perhaps in Matthew 16:28 be referring to when he rose up in a cloud to the heavens in the book of acts, he came into his kingdom and many saw this happen.
I'm certain 6 days later He took Peter James and John up on a mountain and Moses and Alijah were there. After 6000 years Jesus is coming back.
@@timshanks6729 Jesus said " I tell you the truth, there are some standing here who will not experience death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.” So there was no time frame of when this would happen, so 6 days later when he took Peter, James, John up to the mountain and they saw the transfiguration in my opinion is too quick to make his statement make any point. Why say some here will never taste death until they see him come in his kingdom if it was just going to be six days later, seem a bit of an odd statement just to show three people a transfiguration and say some wont taste death before they see this. That's why I lean toward him speaking about what happened in the book of acts when a crowd of people saw him go into the heavens to his kingdom.
Matthew 16:27
27 “For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EACH ONE ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.
Another great interpretation worth considering is that Jesus meant The Spirit-Filled Church as The Kingdom of God.
I whole heartedly agree... I don't think it's "another great interpretation", I believe it to be the correct interpretation.
At Pentecost, right after the disciples received the Holy Spirit, they speak to the crowd and 3,000 were saved and received the Holy Spirit... and the church was added to daily, after that. The kingdom was surely coming with power.
Another great interpretation worth considering is that Jesus meant Mary giving him a hand job is the coming of the kingdom of God. Another is Jesus meant red sky at morning was the kingdom of God. We can play this game any number of times, but we know what the book says and means. It's all nonsense and no kingdom came, they missed their deadline by 2000 years.
Bullseye Jeff, and Luke 17:21 clearly proves that.
_"The Spirit-Filled Church as The Kingdom of God."_
That doesn't explain all the other stuff in the passage.
The falling of the stars, the coming on the clouds, the gathering of the elect, the mourning of the whole earth, the worst distress in the history of the world, etc.
@@incredulouspasta3304It is a fulfillment if Daniel 7 Son of Man coming in his Kingdom...also the falling of the stars, moon to blood, etc. is apocalyptic language used in Isaiah, Ezekiel, Joel, and other prophets. The things were written to the people in that literal generation.
1. You can say that it's a combination of short-term and long-term prophecy, but the passage itself makes no such distinction. It ends with "Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until ALL these things have happened", which means it's all short-term.
2. This passage is in direct response to the disciples asking Jesus "what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"... not, "what will be the sign of the Roman army coming?"
3. Frank's interpretation of "The Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory" as the Roman army seems like a massive stretch to me. It's followed up with "And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens." That's not a description of what happened in 70 AD.
4. Isaiah 13 says that the stars will not show their light, not that they will fall. My Bible also points to Isaiah 34, which says "the stars in the sky will be dissolved... all the starry host will fall". That passage sounds much more like the end-times final judgement.
5. After talking about the flight to the mountains, it says "there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now---and never to be equaled again." The events of 70 AD were bad, but they could hardly be called the worst ever.
I think it's clear that the author had the end times in mind, not just a war between Jews and Romans.
yeeah.... those are some good arguments
Hello again. Haven't seen you around much in a while. Hope you have been well. Of course, I have been preoccupied with other matters and don't spend much time looking for comments, especially erroneous and presumptive ones. Just thought I would take a few minutes and see what popped up.
Haven't really studied this from more than one perspective have you? What "generation" was the focus of the comments? The generation then living or the generation which started to witness these horrific events? According to the majority of Christian scholars I have read the generation referenced is most likely the latter. Looking at the passage from that viewpoint makes everything much more clear and rational along with what those people, and subsequent generations observed. Really should take the time to research this more deeply. But you haven't been noted for doing that in the past so why should you change now?
Dr. Turek just added other concepts related to the passage. He talked about the perception that much of biblical prophesy does have short term as well as long term references. Many Christian scholars have made mention of that in relation to certain prophesies. Then you know all about biblical prophesy and how it must be evaluated. Seems you know much more than any and all Christian scholars, and all Christians regardless of how much they study, since it appears you don't think such a thing exists; Christian scholars knowing what the Bible says or means. Of course, you don't need to accept anything any Christian says whether considered a scholar or not. You haven't done so in the past regardless of what the issue or topic was. Dr. Turek gave reasoned answers related to the issues here. That is all that is necessary. Accept or deny is irrelevant to Dr. Turek or any other Christian for that matter. I have forgotten what your Ph.D. is in: Bible Studies, or other related areas of study. Enlighten me. Sorry, I just have forgotten.
Have a good night.
@danielpray9089 why are you insulting him? Seems you are the one in the wrong here. He made a valid observation. Why did that upset you?
Paul, thought, as well as all Christians at the time that the time of his second coming was close but they where wrong.. You can see it in the letters. It would make a lot of sense if they believed it based on the prophecies. It'd obvious from the letters that people started saying that Jesus is late because we read that God did not came yet nit because he is late but because he waiting for more people to be saved... But then, 2000 years passed so can't we say now that he is indeed late? Even if 1000 years is like 1 day for God then that would mean that he said he will come on Monday and now it's Wednesday...
The 70 AD argument makes no sense. When God said, "truly I say to you this generation will not pass he was giving instructions to them on how to act when these things happen. He was answering a specific question to the people who listened to him. And he was preparing the people who listened to him at the time for all these things.. Why would he talk about a different generation?
@@danielpray9089 _"Haven't seen you around much in a while"_
Yeah, I haven't watched or commented on this channel too much lately.
_"insults... insults... insults..."_
Duly noted.
_"According to the majority of Christian scholars I have read the generation referenced is most likely [The generation then living... which started to witness these horrific events]"_
And how many of those scholars are theologically committed to the passage being a true prediction of the future? What do you think the consensus is among scholars who DON'T have theological commitments related to the passage?
The problem with that interpretation is that the passage starts with a description of the destruction of the temple. So the generation that begins to witness those events is still the current generation that Jesus is talking to.
In my opinion, the only plausible solution is to fiddle with the meaning of the word "generation". Stretch it out to mean something nebulous like "age" or something. I don't think it's a good solution, and I think it makes Jesus look deceptive, but if you are theologically committed to interpreting it as a true prophecy, then I think it's the best we have.
@incredulouspasta3304 nah, in the Greek translation, it's translated exactly that.. generation.
The only solution would be that the disiples took what Jesus said the wrong way and wrote it down like that. The Bible is not like the Quran, it can have mistakes so that could be an answer to all this.
Really great video! Thank you! A suggestion I have is to slow down the transition of frames when inserting pictures/texts. I got really dizzy looking at the video because the frame was moving so fast. To be honest, I don't think it's necessary to add those special effects. Thanks again for the great content!

Thank you CE
I was expecting a whole to be punched into my interpretation of that scripture but you reinforced it and highlighted some points i didnt take into consideration, ill have to rewatch this and make more notes!
JESUS correctly stated , alot of them were still alive when he came into his father's kingdom as he rose to heaven sitting on the right hand of the Father. As far as time for final judgment , he said to wait and to look and he gave signs.
For GOD so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whomsoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life 🙌
That's not what it says though. "Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED." - Mark 13:30, Matthew 24:34, Luke 21:32

FACT: JESUS is never Wrong!
atthew 13:31-21 “He told them another parable: the kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”

What if the stars falling from the sky was symbolic for how you don’t really see stars in modern cities due to light pollution simply hinting how it would be as we get closer to the end?
Yes, especially in New Delhi, in the winter time, to be precise, huh
Wow I always thought that verse this generation shall not pass until all these things come to pass was a reference to the rapture. Very interesting points. This guy is good.
You were right first time.
You’ll find other Christians saying differently.
It does. Frank is ignoring a lot of stuff that contradicts his interpretation.
The rapture is not real and it's not even in the Bible. The rapture is a term for weak Christians that are too afraid to face tribulation on earth to use and twist scripture to fit their agenda. "Pulling Christians out" before things get tough is so ANTI to how God operates and it does nothing to refine them. God is not going to come for a weak church but a strong one that has been refined in fire. "He who endureth to the end will be saved".@@incredulouspasta3304
You’ve got to give him points for going back to the drawing board and reinventing his narrative.
At this point I’m fine with putting a pin in things for another eight thousand years.
Yes, it puts a moratorium on activity, but it’s better than lying. And, of course, we wouldn’t want to be in error. So let the cookie crumble. If we’re capable of making sense of this, they’ll make even more sense of it in 8,000 years; things will literally be set in stone by then, and it’s not like we’re encroaching on eternity, not even by a micrometer.
If we’re wrong, we’re wrong.
If they’re right, they’re right.
It’ll be clear by then, and we’ll all gather some wisdom and what-not along the way.
In the meantime, let’s talk about world peace.
@@Lucas-gm3bv "and it’s not like we’re encroaching on eternity, not even by a micrometer." My friend..once you die you've entered into eternity, It's just a matter of location. Don't be deceived, failing to take Jesus Christ at His Word is a graven mistake. When He says:
[John 11:25]
"Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live."
This is a promise from God Himself. How do you claim this promise you may ask? Simple..humble yourself in prayer and ask our Heavenly Father to pour out His Spirit upon you. Also ask Him for wisdom to discern truth.
[James 1:5]
"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you."
Brother, do not be complacent on this matter, act now while the breath of life is still within you.
-God Bless
As a partial-preterist, I get the short-term fulfillment but where do you get the dual fulfillment from? Just wondering. Most people that hold to a futurist or dispensational view, often state there is a dual fulfillment but never quite point out scripture to back it up. I see all of what you mentioned (olivet discourse) running parallel to Rev 1-20, meaning 95% of prophecy is past. I'm open to teaching, not to attacks. Thanks!
Jesus said many times that His generation would see the end. He wasn't talking about the end of the world. He was talking about the end of the Jewish world, the end of the Mosaic world, the final judgement of Israel in 70 AD when the Roman army destroyed the temple and Jerusalem. Jesus even told the high priest that he would see it. Coming in clouds is a prophets way of saying coming in judgement. The partial preterist model is by far the better model.
This is the best explanation I heard about this issue.
I ask this question with respect and no intention of arguing:
What do you make of Christians that claimed to have seen visions and/or that have visited Heaven and/or hell?
Christ telling the disciples some standing here that shall not see death until they see the Son of Man coming has a clear answer. I see that as a reference to John, who wrote Revelation and saw the prophecy of Christ's return in the visions Christ gave him on Patmos when writing Revelation.
It is altogether possible. Also I consider Pentecost to be an event of the Kingdom (Kingship) being imparted to believers
He said SOME.
Honestly, it's still quite hard to understand
Things that make no sense or that are not supported by fact usually are!
You can also interpret this lesson as Christ talking about his first coming. Recall Luke 17:21, "The kingdom of God is not coming with observable signs. Nor will people say 'Look, here it is!' or 'There it is!'; for behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst."
I don’t necessarily with Frank that the transfiguration was Jesus’s fulfillment of the Matt 18 passage but rather it was referring to John , who God brought to him the book of Revelation.
Short term vs long term is one of the most important concepts that needs to be emphasized today. It's a good way to measure who practices patience.
I like these videos, but some of them (this one included) go a bit crazy with the editing transitions. Makes it hard to watch. Keep it simple my bros.
Well done, good sir!
So, Jesus returned in AD 70? Could you please provide evidence outside of Scripture for this monumental event?
I ask for this evidence because as Jesus said “every eye shall see and every ear shall hear” when He returns. And if that’s true then we should have copious accounts of His return in numerous extra biblical sources.
There’s also the problem that Israel was not a country, it was a couple of areas, Judea was Samaria, which after the rebellion and siege AD70, Rome renamed the area Alia Palestina, at least this how I understand it.
I would really like the info on His return because my church just excommunicated a member for his refusal to repent from his following the heresy of full Preterism and I considered him a good friend and I’d like to have the evidence one way or another. I’ve looked at some sources outside of Scripture and have yet to find any evidence of Jesus’ physical return in AD 70…….
The evidence must be OUTSIDE of Scripture because for this issue, the Bible can be twisted and distorted to make a point. But if Jesus really retuned, we should ALL know it and to make matters worse we are all doomed to hell as all the prophecies have been fulfilled and there’s really no point to study Scripture, go to church, share your faith……
yeah this was pretty preteristic, the first chapter of Revelation debunks his argument
In Luk 21:20-24 those events are referring to AD 70. But in Matt 24 those events are future. The key verse is Matt 24:15 which is not mentioned in Luk 21.
Repent from sin, God hates sin, confess your sins to Jesus Christ.
1 John 1:9
Excellent!!
Matthew 24:36 Jesus himself says that he does not know the day or the hour of the end times. It is only the Father who knows. My understanding to the man’s question was not that Jesus was talking about the transfiguration but Jesus being resurrected and establishing his kingdom in the hearts of his believers (Luke 17:21). I am not a theological scholar by any means, but this still makes the most sense to me.
Jesus was never wrong
Can you prove that?

He said “this generation” quite literally. He was talking about the historic Premillennial or Amillenial position. The beast was Nero and most of that happened around AD70
Really? When did the world receive Nero's mark on the right hand or forehead to buy or sell?
Nero was not alive in 70 AD
This is falsehood. 100%.
Prophesy is PATTERN. There are small fulfillments that are stepping stones to the last and final fulfillment. We are to LEARN from each partial fulfillment. It’s all a piece of the puzzle to give us the final picture.
Nero was a shadow of the final Antichrist. Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar, Solomon, Hamon, Herod, Judas…ALL of these are pictures of the FINAL ANTICHRIST. We learn from each one to reveal a picture of the last guy.
Nero was just Nero. He wasn’t the end. That’s a Biblically inaccurate assessment.
John saw it, being taken from Patmos in the Spirit.
@@festushaggen2563 "no man might buy or sell except he that has the mark of the beast or the number of his name" refers to money. (As the coins minted under Nero's rule had Nero's image and name on them).
the "back of the hand or the forehead" is a metaphor. It alludes to the practice mentioned in Deuteronomy 6:8 where gods commandments should be revered by "Bind[ing] them as a sign on your hand and let[ting] them be a symbol on your forehead."
John is saying that the laws of the beast are being honored (falsely) as god's commandments are.
Suggesting he was talking about the transfiguration is silly. Why would he say "some" of you won't taste death? Did "some" die between him saying that and the transfiguration that happened right after? Why would he think anyone was gonna die between him saying that and the very next scene?
This would be like me saying to people in my house, "Some of you will not die before they see me eating a sandwich." Then walking into the kitchen, making myself a sandwich, and then eating it in front if them. Who talks like that?
do you assume "death" is only physical?
You say who talks like that. But Jesus does. Jesus was always hard to understand even by those around him. There are plenty of times his followers went back to him to ask what he meant. And part of it is that we are culturally temporally and linguistically removed from the original saying. It gets hard to fully grasp.
Because only some of them saw the transfiguration.
@@mitslev4043 Nobody knows how Jesus talked. We have second and third hand accounts that have been edited and translated for 2000 years.

Jesus even told the Pharisees that there will be no observable signs of the Kingdom of God coming and that the kingdom is already here. Luke 17:20-21
What MADMAN gave you access to that Transition pack. For the love of God, you don’t need a transition from shot to shot. They should be used strategically, not Willy-Nilly oh I’ll use a shake transition here, I’ll use a pan left here, and oohhhh, a pan diagonal right over here. When you’re doing a video like this, it’s not necessary to use so many different ones. Use pan left every time you want to switch to artwork and pan right every time you switch back the speaker. This way, you’re telling your audience when you pan in one direction, you will see artwork but when we pan back, you’ll see the speaker. As a video editor for over 20 years, that made me dizzy and it was super obnoxious lol!
2 Samuel 7:12-16 also has a 2 tier prophecy. The initial fulfillment being Solomon and the building of the temple, and the later prophecy being the coming of the Messiah.
This tends to be pretty common with prophecy.
That was an incredible explanation of the scriptures.
Matthew 16:27
27 “For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EACH ONE ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.
Im shocked he said the Bible exaggerated the cosmic disturbances and that theyre purely symbolic.
For those who want more on this perspective try reading the book The Parousia or another book called The Last Days of Jesus by Sproul. I believe the Mt 24 and related chapters relates to 70AD when their whole life was turned upside down and the Temple was destroyed. I still think that the writings of Paul still refer to a future time to us as well. This perspective was popular among various theologians before the 'Left Behind' thinking took over in the US.
That was super confusing. Is Frank saying that Jesus coming on the clouds was a Roman thing in 70 AD? Doesn't scripture say He comes to judge the world, not just Israel. His interpretation is quite unclear.
Frank does an excellent job explaining this.
Love the videos, but please don’t shake the images when transitioning to the photos..it makes me dizzy and messes with my eyes.
Whew, theres a lot of expertise and info in a couple minutes here! Woah

This is a prime example of why we need to put on our armor and study The Word, be in prayer and speak to those who have studied and understand more so we can come to the knowledge of The Truth.
Yes, frank there was a play on words but the original language shows that Peter was a stone not a rock. Rock was a term directly used of God in the O.T. at least 12 times and symbolically many more.

Very good answer. I knew the answer to one (transfiguration) but not the other scripture.
Glad to see Frank offer the preterist view instead of the problematic dispensational view of New Testament prophecy. Anyone know what Frank's view of the millennium is? Could he be postmill by chance?
Perhaps the issue is that Jesus wasn't talking about the end of the world, but rather that we have misunderstood what the kingdom of God is?
Absolutely right. 👍
The chopping of scenes and video inserts was really distracting to the question and answers. Don’t try to be like other channels that do this way better. I couldn’t concentrate on anything that was said. Surely that’s more important than trying to be ‘cool’.
"Jesus said my kingdom is not of this world if it were my servants would prevent my capture by the jews".
Therefore when he said some of you will never test death before you see the son come in his kingdom, he was pointing to his going to the father after the resurrection. And they saw him the 11 so except judas
I wish you would show the guy’s response to the answer. That would have been interesting.
Probably the best answer anyone has ever given to the question
My only criticism is that when Bible scholars state the some passages that are literal to be taken either symbolically or are are exaggerations. ISA. 13 is about the Day of the Lord, a future event. Ccross reference Rev 8:12 talks about a future darkening of the sun, stars and moon. I take that literally
So many people get this wrong! Thank you for the proper explanation!

@@gregory7406 Thank you for sharing. Why did you quote this scripture? I'm a pretty simple guy and I don't understand.
@@tonyputman3398 it is the verse before 28. It seems like Jesus was talking about the last day of the world. When judgement will come, not about some days after he said these words.
@@gregory7406 It does seem like 27 is talking about the day of judgement. The next verse, "Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." In this verse, he is talking to his disciples. How can that be talking about the day of judgement? That is talking about something that would happen in their lifetime, or am I missing something?
@@tonyputman3398 yes exactly. So I believe therefore that verse 28 must also be in context is the same thing Jesus is talking about in verse 27. Therefore I am unsure what to make out of it.
Matthew is my favorite book in the Bible for a reason
Gary DeMar brought me here. Partial preterism is awesome
I guess the understandable problem people have with bible verses like this is that even if they are ultimately true, the way that preachers can make a case for "it's metaphorical when it didn't happen but literal when it did" is an easy go-to for when verses don't quite make sense. And from an outsider's perspective, it's too convenient for them to buy it.
The only thing wrong would be 'Mans' interpretation of Jesus's words. God/Jesus/Holy Spirit do not make mistakes. Ever.
Frank is wrong about Matthew 24. The sign of the Sun, Moon and Stars happens at the second coming of Jesus. He said it would happen immediately after the tribulation of those days. It actually happens at the opening of the 6th seal in Revelation 6:12. We are not there yet.
Problem with the transfiguration being the fulfillment of the end of Matthew 16 is Jesus said some of them would not die before seeing, implying that some of them would. But none of them had died before the transfiguration. I think Frank was spot on with Matthew 24 though
The plot deepens ..
Since we don't have any of the words of Jesus accurately recorded, it is more accurate to say that early Christians were wrong about the end times. It is clear that they thought Jesus return was imminent before even any of the Gospels were written.
Such a solid answer
It’s harder to watch some of these vids with the screen always jumping around
Jesus himself said that even the Son doesn't know the day and hour of his return, only the Father. Mt 24:36. So obviously the verse preceding that was not pinpointing a time of his return because that would contradict what he said just 2 verses earlier in the text.
Constructive feedback... the video editing was a huge distraction to the message.
It's all about prophecy. To see it understood and to understand it in the Prophetic. Visit Minister Revealed. And watch the first 4 videos in the Intro Series. I promise you it will be worth your time. As it also reveals why the differences in gospels. Just as this point in the video. If you go to Mark and Luke's versions they're all a little different. The answer to them all... is prophecy!
Another way to interpret this - in this scripture, it says that Jesus is speaking to his disciples. Not just the 12, not just the apostles. So who is to say that God has not given a select few in attendance there a prolonged life, that they are among us today, and will be at the return? Note that there is nothing in his words here that speak of immediacy of his return.
Was Jesus right about thought crime?
Was Jesus right about ignoring the plight and suffering of slaves?
Regarding the matter of fleeing to the mountains, that is in reference to the need to flee Jerusalem immediately upon seeing the Abomination of Desolation. This is the Midpoint of the 7 years, when the Beast comes fully into his power and implements his global religion. This can't be referencing the siege of AD70, because the desecration of the Temple in that event happened at the end of the siege, when it was impossible to flee. By that point, they were already surrounded and/or slain.
no one seems to get it the end times refer to a specific moment. because there is a time, times and half a time, and none are measured the same way.
Thanks - the argument for the transfiguration makes perfect sense. But the explanation for the moon becoming dark etc from isaiah before the generation passes is... meh. This is supposed to be the word of God, yet it's using this parabolic language to make a very important point that would clearly confuse pretty much every one listening in their time and ours. What's to stop us from thinking "Well, God exaggerated with unclear language big time here, so maybe he is beating around the bush and using deceptive language in all these other places too?" That type of excuse is a common thing that a lot of false prophets do when their predictions fail... "Oh, I was just speaking metaphorically so my prediction was actually fulfilled in this other situation". I hope someday I encounter a more convincing answer to that prediction. It has been bothering me for a few weeks now.
It's complicated because the verses are speaking about multiples periods of time. But the cosmic disturbances happen right after the end of the 70th week (Matt 24:29), and just before the second coming (Matt 29:30, Joel 2:31).
@@PsalmChapter117 Yeah a few people in here pointed out the theory that the statement was talking about the generation at the time of the prophecy and not the generation of the people who were talking to him. I think its wording is a little more ambiguous that I would like, but overall I think it's an acceptable theory. Much better than the explanation Frank Turke gave. For the record, I love Frank Turek and I hope he goes with this explanation next time.
Amen
