The Last Generation?
27 November 2021
Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place.”
This quote of Jesus regarding the end times is found in Matthew 24:34; Mark 13:30; and Luke 21:32.
The things that Jesus had been speaking of—the rise of the antichrist, the desolation of the Holy Place, and the darkening of the sun—did not happen during the lifespan of people alive in Jesus’ day.
Obviously, Jesus meant something different when He spoke of “this generation.”
The key to understanding what Jesus meant by “this generation will not pass away until all these things take place” is the context; that is, we must understand the verses that are surrounding Matthew 24:34, especially the verses prior to it. In Matthew 24:4–31
Jesus is clearly giving a prophecy; He is speaking of future events.
Jesus had already told those living during His earthly ministry that the kingdom had been taken from them (Matthew 21:43). Therefore, it is imperative that Matthew 24–25 be seen as dealing with a future time.
The generation that Jesus speaks of “not passing” until He returns is a future generation, namely, the people living when the predicted events occur.
The word generation refers to the people alive in the future when the events of Matthew 24–25 take place.
Jesus’ point in His statement, “this generation will not pass away until all these things take place,” is that the events of the end times will happen quickly.
Once the signs of the end begin to be observed, the end is well on the way—the second coming and the judgement will occur within that last generation.
Jesus reinforced this meaning with a parable in Matthew 24:32–33: “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.”
A sure sign of summer is the leafing of the fig tree; a sure sign of the end of the world is that “all these things” (of Matthew 24) are taking place.
Those who are on the earth then will have only a short time left.
However, to many “this generation” are the people Jesus was speaking to at that moment—some of what He predicted was going to occur during their lifetimes.
So, when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in AD 70, Jesus’ prophecy was fulfilled in part; the fall of Jerusalem provided a foretaste of worse things to come.
However, many aspects of Jesus’ prophecy did not occur in AD 70; for example, the celestial signs of Matthew 24:29–31.
The main problem with the “dual-fulfillment” interpretation is that it does not harmonise with Jesus’ statement that “all” these things will take place in “this generation.”
Therefore, it is better to understand “this generation” as referring to the generation alive when the end times events are actually occurring.
Essentially, Jesus is saying that, once the events of the end times begin, they will happen quickly.
The age of grace has continued for a very long time. But when the time for judgement finally arrives, things will be wrapped up post-haste.
This concept of God’s drawing things to a rapid close is echoed in many other passages of Scripture (Matthew 24:22; Mark 13:20; Revelation 3:11; 22:7, 12, 20).
No one with eyes to see, and a reasonable grasp on Biblical prophecy, could not have failed to notice what is occurring globally, and rapidly, that are certain glimpses of what must be in place just before the return of Christ.
We have now, and suddenly, global surveillance, restrictions on buying and selling, hyper-inflation, Israel surrounded by her enemies, financial system collapse, and great lawlessness. All spoken of in bibilical prophecy for the times of the end.
Time is now SO short to repent of our evil ways of living and call upon the Lord for His mercy and salvation.
Eternity is a LONG time and we are about to enter into it - a time of great joy, and yet for others who will not believe, an endless time of much weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Call on Him today who is mighty and more than ready to save.
Covid Emergency in Israel over apparent new variant from southern Africa....
November 26, 2021
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett called an emergency cabinet meeting on Friday, November 26 after three cases of an apparently new, virulent strain of the covid virus – B.1.1.529 – were detected.
It was first found in a traveller from Malawi. He also called a hasty broadcast news conference on Friday afternoon to announce that PCR covid tests are to be mandated against all arrivals at Ben Gurion and 10 million PCR test kits designed to better detect the variant are on order.
The manufacturers of these tests have themselves doubted their accuracy.
It is claimed that this new variant spreads more rapidly than previous strains. But it is still under investigation.
Bennett said that when more is known about the new variant, decisions will be taken on how to fight it.
For now, South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia, Malawi and Eswatini have been added to the list of “red” countries.
Returning Israelis from any of those countries, including those fully vaccinated, will henceforth be required to isolate at a state-run hotel for a week and released after two negative PCR virus tests.
Those refusing tests will be quarantined for two weeks at a quarantine hotel.
The special cabinet meeting is to continue its discussion on Saturday night on further restrictions that may include school classrooms.
The prime minster, Health Minister Nitzan Horovitz and Public Health Director Dr. Sharon Alroy-Preis strove to calm public panic on Friday.
They said that the vaccines taken by a large part of the Israeli population – and started this week against children aged 5-11 – appear to be partially effective against the South African strain.
But they admitted that more research is needed. The Health Ministry is working with South Africa to learn more about it, including how resistant it is to existing vaccines. All the cases discovered until now have been vaccinated.
This will most likely render all those fully vaxxed and with a passport to prove this - as NOW unvaxxed - and a return to the obvious cycle of jabs and boosters. This is the trap into which so many millions have blindly walked.
For those who have refused to be included in this plandemic, well, we are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.
New Record: 10,000 Jewish Worshippers Visit Temple Mount in 3 Months.....
27 November 2021
A new precedent-setting peak was recorded on Wednesday with the counting of 10,000 Jewish worshippers who visited the Temple Mount in less than three months, since the beginning of the Jewish year.
In recent weeks, the number of Jewish worshippers on the Temple Mount has increased between 50% and 80% compared to the same periods in previous years, according to the Yera’eh organization, which monitors Jewish visits to the site.
These numbers do not include the visits of Israelis in military, tourism, and educational settings. These numbers would increase the count by another 10%.
Elishama Sandman of the Year’eh organization noted that the number of Jews visiting the Temple Mount is more than twice that of 2017 when 4,426 Jews ascended to the holy site in the same period.
Jewish worshippers are enabled only limited access in time and space during their visits to the Mount. However, in recent years, the trend of Jewish visits to Judaism’s holiest site has only increased.
Israel, Morocco sign Historic Defence Agreement.......
26 November 2021
The memorandum of understanding was signed by Israel's Gantz and his Moroccan counterpart Abdellatif Loudiyi and sets a solid security cooperation framework that formalises defence relations between the two countries, allowing for increased cooperation in the fields of intelligence, industrial collaboration, military training and more.
“We have just signed a defence cooperation MOU with Morocco. It is a very significant development, which will enable us to work on joint projects and promote industrial cooperation,” Gantz said, adding that “relations between Israel and Morocco should be expanded and enhanced.”
During the meeting between the two defence ministers, Gantz also reiterated the importance of enhanced bilateral cooperation in light of developing threats in the Middle East and North Africa and expressed hope that there would be more countries that would sign normalisation agreements with Israel.
At the signing ceremony Gantz thanked Morroco’s King Muhammad VI and Loudiyi “for their efforts to strengthen and expand relations between the two countries,” read a statement from the defence ministry.
U.S.General; if Vienna Iran talks fail we are ready for Military Option......
27 November 2021
The Iranians are “very close” to nuclear breakout, says American OC Central Command General. Kenneth McKenzie. [pictured above]
The IAEA head says “no progress” was made on his trip to Tehran.
With negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program set to resume in Vienna next week, the top U.S. military commander in the Middle East says that should the talks fail, a military option is prepared.
The Joint Commission of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) nuclear agreement is scheduled to convene in Vienna on November 29.
Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and Iran will be represented, according to an E.U. statement.
The Iranians are “very close” to nuclear breakout, but President Joe Biden has vowed that the Iranians will not attain a nuclear weapon, said General McKenzie, .
“The diplomats are in the lead on this, but Central Command always has a variety of plans that we could execute, if directed,” he said.
The time for action is rushng toward those involved in the dangerous stand-off and Iran may well already have nuclear weaponry?
There is no time left now for a decision to be made and the dithering to finish. Joe looks fairly dithery to us though?
Russian military build-up puts Washington - NATO on edge.....
26 November 2021
Washington is on edge as Russia's military build-up threatens a confrontation, with fears escalating following reports that U.S. intelligence shows Russian forces preparing to push into Ukraine.
Even as the nation’s capital goes quiet for the Thanksgiving holiday, the Biden administration must contend with reports that nearly 100,000 Russian troops are stationed at various locations on the country's western border, with no sign of those numbers waning.
Tensions have grown so high that the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine on Wednesday warned of “unusual Russian military activity” near Ukraine's eastern border and in the annexed peninsula of Crimea, telling U.S. citizens not to travel there.
All options are on the table in how to respond to Russia's 'large and unusual' troop build-up near Ukraine's border, and the NATO alliance will decide what the next move will be following consultations next week, the State Department's top U.S. diplomat for European affairs said on Friday.
"As you can appreciate, all options are on the table and there's a toolkit that includes a whole range of options," Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Karen Donfried told reporters in a telephone briefing.
"It's now for the alliance to decide what are the next moves that NATO wants to take,"
Pentagon Defence Department announces a New UFO Task Force...
27 November 2021
Called the Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group is now now forming to help the U.S. government spot and identify unknown objects in the air and determine whether they pose any threats.
Now that UFOs are a credible, real and established fact, the Pentagon has created this brand new group for dealing with the escalating threat of unknown and other-worldly objects flying overhead.
A Management Executive Council, comprised of defence and intelligence officials, will oversee the new task force.
"Incursions by any airborne object into our [Special Use Airspace] pose safety of flight and operations security concerns, and may pose national security challenges," the Department of Defence said in a press release.
"DOD takes reports of incursions — by any airborne object, identified or unidentified — very seriously, and investigates each one."
The task force is the successor of the Navy's Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, which released a report in June on their findings about UFOs, or what they call "unidentified aerial phenomena."
And while they are still unsure what the objects actually were, or where they came from, they do know one thing for certain: the objects were real.
"From a safety of flight issue, we absolutely do believe that what we are seeing are not simply sensor artefacts. These are things that physically exist," a senior government official said in June. "They are physical objects."
The task force is going to implement guidance and more details in the coming weeks about their specific plans
The great endtime delusion that we are not alone continues to be constructed as time passes and soon the time will be upon us when these cosmic space-brothers return to offer humanity the path to peace and prosperity - the Archons, masquerading as our angelic saviours.
