This generation will not pass away until all these things take place
Feb 7, 2010
I was reading thru the NIV of the bible one day and the Lord showed me something about the meaning of the word generation. When I read this verse Matthew 24:34. "Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. One of the footnotes at the bottom of the page stuck out to me, it read ?Or Race? The meaning of generation literally means Race of man. The lights went on in my spirit and understanding came; this is not talking about a 40 year space of time. The scripture should read like: This generation, this fallen race of man, this fallen seed generation of man will not pass away until all these things take place.
Don?t forget we who know Christ are of a whole different generation of man. We are all new creatures in Christ, behold all the old is passed away and behold the new has come. We are of the seed of Christ. Remember the virgin birth and Jesus is referred to as the second Adam.
That old generation of man (the first Adam) will not pass away until all these things take place. Does not this give new light. You can't put a time period on this. Jesus said himself no man will know the day or the hour. It was not given to us to know.

I like playing Music that Glorifies Jesus Christ and His headship in the church. Seems to be something the Lord has built into my heart, in other words He has built 1 Cor. 14:26 to 40 into my being. All the Music I write just seems to point in that direction. Building up of the inner man so that someday we can began meeting and moving like it says in those passages. For this is the pattern of how we should meet, so every part of the body of Christ can began to function the way they were meant to function.
Something to think about.
