Luke 11:47Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets whom your fathers killed. 48So you are witnesses and you consent to the deeds of your fathers, for they killed them, and you build their tombs. 49Therefore also the Wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute,’ 50so
that the blood of all the prophets, shed from the foundation of the world, may be charged against this generation, 51from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.
Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation. 52Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering.”
Does anyone here (futurist) believe this(“required of”)has not been fulfilled?
Elsewhere in the chapter, our Lord said their generation would be condemned at the resurrection.
Luke 11: 30For as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 3
2The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.
Two different fulfillment’s?(one in first century, and one future at the resurrection and judgment?
Is it possible for the first passage to also be fulfilled at the resurrection/judgment?
If you believe that, please explain.
I personally believe the first had to be fullfilled in the flesh, in their lives while they were alive.
The latter at the resurrection still to come.
Maybe I’m wrong...
