voidellutko ovat "tämä sukupolvi"

”Question: In Matthew 24:34 Jesus said: "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." What did he mean by "this generation" ? Answer: It could hardly be said that he meant any human being living on the earth at that time. He was giving testimony concerning things that were to transspire at the end of the world. That was a long way off. No generation of the human race has ever existed as long as a thousand years. It follows then that Jesus must have meant something else. What could he have meant ? At the Jordan Jehovah started a new generation, a new creation, of which Christ Jesus is the Head. Jesus selected twelve disciples, who were with him for three and one-half years. Eleven of these we have every reason to believe constitute a part of that new creation. In 1 Peter 2:9 the apostle, speaking to the church of course, referred to those who are faithful. The irresistible conclusion therefore is that Jesus referred to the new creation when he said: "This generation shall not pass until all these things be fulfilled." This then would be a strong indication that some members of the new creation will be on the earth at the time of Armageddon.” (w27 Feb. 15 p. 62)

Tuo new creation - muistaakseni uusi luomus - tarkoittaa voideltuja.

“So too after the winter of Armageddon the remnant and their companions will come forth from their protected place under God’s hiding and enter into the glorious season of the Kingdom in its undisputed power over earth. (Job 37: 22-24) Pointing to the events of our time since 1914 Jesus said: "Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; when they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily I say unto you, This generation [including the remnant] shall not pass away till all be fulfilled."“(Luke 21:29-32) (w42 July 1 p. 204 par. 43, brackets original)

Lähimmäisen totuudeksi tuntuu riittävän se, että muut uskovat kolminaisuuteen, Helvettiin jne. Oman uskon perusta ei tunnu kiinnostavan.

"Oman uskon perusta ei tunnu kiinnostavan."
