    Oh robycop3, You don' think you even understand the whole Genea thing. They did not take care of anything. if you really think they did then you don't even know what your even arguing about.

    Again, I don't understand if you like repeating yourself, the eschatological things did not happen like you say they did, because if you would just open your bible and look at the OT, you would see what they actually mean, and not just try to turn them into a fairy tale.

    Yeah, we did. Your complete failure to understand it is not our fault.

    Oh really?

    You established NOTHING. You say Generation in Matthew 24 means race, WHY? because the context shows it has to?

    That is not my failure to understand, that is your flawed theology about the events prior to that happening or not.

    In not one more use of Generation, did you make a case about Generation being used as anything else, but the people he was talking to.

    You tried with the Sign of Jonah, but that was only one verse, and It works perfectly fine as "this current Generation"

    The only thing you established that the word can mean something: Not that it is used that way in scripture.

    So sorry to disappoint, but if you had an answer I would of understood. But sadly you didn't, you admitted the reason you cant have it meaning current generation is because of the context, and your doctrine.

    Your problem is you believe your doctrine to be fact, Facts have concrete evidence, that can be proven.

    So far what fact have I heard?

    I think "race" is a poor translation based on my belief there is only one race on this planet, the human race. I would prefer the translation "people" - as the word is a cognate of the word usually translated "born." All the people born to and descended from a specific person. And, yes, the context bears that out, as I have already shown you.
