Re: Some standing here
It is a real city with real gates....
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.....

Now, if you want to make the City Itself, look like people....you must use METAPHORS!

You quoted a definition saying metaphors are literary phrases, not what you are saying here at all. You're not sticking with your own quoted definitions.

Are you making fun of the passage in Rev 21 again.
Are you setting it up for your metaphors?
Now that you are attacking the passage and attempting to make it look as if it was written wrong, you can re-invent the new meaning of it as you so slyly do.
I have figured out your system of divide and conquer.

This is what Mike wants the passage to say, after attacking its' original text......very tricky indeed!

Did Christ lie or did some there see the Coming of the Lord in His kingdom?
You tell us.

Jesus did not say there shall be some "of you" standing here, that has not taste death and he did not say when it would happen.
"Of the whole church we shall not all die but they shall all be change ...", this is about the catching away, which preterists are confused about.
Only those who are ready shall see the Christ at that time, unbelievers shall not.
