Yes I hardly expect that anyone would reckinise him this time either?
we have since found that the horizions of the sky far exceeds what the eye is capable of seeing. An Many more Lands have been founded, that it is no more a issue for all children to possess Jerusalem till it bust at the seams.

Can't say for certain, but it's probably something you did.
Had to be said.
this may have to be said to..That could be a berry dangerous Observation.
Not one of us is respected enough to complain, or even return The perfect one seater Semi trailer truck to the maufacturer, without the whole company insisting your faulty an perfectly wrong. The truth fails to trump pride.

Yes, That belief can be supported by using Scripture, I do understand where your coming from.
WELL!! - Show us the Scriptures that support that Jesus ( has not come "yet" )!! What did God say!!! Not what one can twist around to fit anything one wants God to FIT!! - God fits the Truth perfectly!!
Paul -- 063012
---Gal. 4:16.
---"Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth"???

Which will come first....the end of time, where the older order that has been left standing Insists life is about describing every mark on a prison wall, or the end of space, where the mind freely wandered to cease?
May every trip continue long after moments in time have passed and space had ceased.

God exists eternally, outside of this space/time/matter universe which He has created, therefore He knows the end from the beginning - the Lord Jesus will return exactly at the right second in time.
Creator is distinct from creation. God is eternal, but He experiences endless duration/time, not timelessness. The future is fundamentally different than the past and present, so He knows it as possible, probable, and only certain as far as He settles some vs all things.
The timing of His return is contingent on different things, but fully under control of Him. It may or may not be settled yet as to the exact moment. It appears it was not settled in the first century (the future is at least partially open).
