Jesus made many promises he didn’t keep. John the Baptist and many others including Jesus all believed the end times were near and coming. His disciples and his followers were all deceived. It’s been more than 2000 years still no Jesus. Jesus wasn’t the Messiah.
I understands what you are saying but many people misunderstand this. There are actually 2 explanations. The first was that it was a double prophesy referring to both the destruction of the temple in 70 AD (which would actually make a very plain reading of the text true) AND the future return. However, I think the passage explains itself well. Jesus wasn't saying "All you listening to Me now will still be alive when the end comes". No, what He was saying is that the end will be quick once the signs start. Whenever the "abomination that causes desolation" appears, when ALL tribes on the whole earth mourn (including those not discovered when He was speaking), when the sun goes dark and all the signs appear, then the generation that is alive at THAT time will not pass away. The days of suffering were cut short (Matt 24:22) Now, how do we know that? Because He makes reference to things that couldn't happen that quick, such as all tribes of earth mourning. Also, in Matthew 24:36, Jesus said even He didn't know when this was going to happen. If He believed it was going to happen before the people who were listening to Him died off, He wouldn't say "Even I don't know, only the Father". So the Word is true, it is just necessary to read the whole passage together, not look at verses individually. Hope that helps!

Life is indeed messirable!
We need Jesus the Christ!
You need Jesus.
God is patient, so Jesus Christ is patient too. God loves you, so Jesus Christ loves you too.
