[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 2693813, member: 7900"] [b] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]Much of Matthew 24 needs to be kept in context. Looking at Matthew 24: 34, one reads, "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished." Much of chapter 24 is related to the coming of the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem in 70 a.d., which would have been an event that occurred when citizens of "that generation" was still alive. Thus, at least some of Jesus' words would have been in relationship to the time when the Temple would be destroyed. [/SIZE][/FONT][/b] [/QUOTE]
