Luke 21:32 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all things take place.

NOT 'the foundation', but one of many, many, 'imminent return' passages.

which is the doctrine that Jesus returned in 70AD.

The generation that witnessed the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple was "this generation".

1 And Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way; and his disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
2 But he answered and said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat on the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished. Mt 24


40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. Mt 21


Verily I say unto you (the audience), This generation shall not pass away, till all these things be accomplished. Mt 24:34

30 Verily I say unto you (the audience),This generation shall not pass away, until all these things be accomplished. Mk 13:30

Verily I say unto you (the audience),This generation shall not pass away, till all things be accomplished. Lk 21:32

Do you share that belief? If not, how do you scripturally rebuke that doctrine as well as Luke 21:32?

What does the Word of GOD say?

What matters and prevails is the Word of GOD, the Word is GOD, the Word is Life, Tree of life, the word of tree good and evil is mortal-Genesis 3:22 and 2:17 combined with 3:1 and 5.

Revelation 1:4-8 -> ( About 65 years after the ascension of the Lord-95AD)
4 John to the seven Churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from Him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne;

5 And from JESUS Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood,

6 And hath made us kings and priests unto GOD and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

7 Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen.

8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which IS TO COME, the Almighty.

2Thessalonians 1:7-11 (51/52AD)
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord JESUS shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty messengers,
8 In flaming fire taking VENGEANCE on them that know not GOD, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord JESUS Christ:
9 Who shall be PUNISHED with everlasting DESTRUCTION from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power;
10 When He shall come to be glorified in HIS SAINTS(IT IS NOW, AND FROM NOW ON, IN THIS CURRENT TIME), and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that Day. ->(Lord's Day-> the seventh and last Day or seventh and last millennium).

Has eternal punishment begun? Two thousand years ago, eternal punishment was announced by JESUS and Apostles to begin at a certain time, you understand? When? At the turn from the sixth to the seventh day. From now on there will only be punishment, and punishment, and punishments, but the days will be shortened: - Matthew 24:22-25.

Be prepared or elçse get ready

How can you find a church of 'Bible believing' Christians you can attend holding what they will consider a dangerous heretical belief (universalism). Liberal churches would welcome you but they don't believe in the basic tenets of Christianity. The Bible instructs us not to forsake fellowship with other Christians.

Any 'Bible believing' churches anywhere around you that are also universalist?
