Never as a historical event. It's a trope for God's judgment.

And you are ungrammatical.

If I know nothing about scriptures, then neither does Bart D. Ehrman, B.A. (Wheaton), M. Div. and Ph.D. (Princeton Theological Seminary), Professor of New Testament Studies, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, formerly President of the Society of Biblical Literature and book review editor of the Journal of Biblical Literature, and author of about a dozen well-known books in the field, including Jesus: Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium, on which I relied heavily for the argument above. Apologies for not citing it the first time. I had meant to do so because I'm certainly not claiming originality for this theory, but I wrote my summary over a period of a few days and left out a few things I meant to mention.

I don't doubt that you and your fellow fundamentalist bozos will wave your hands and say you've disproved it all. However, when you read the bible as an ordinary book without presuming that it can't possibly have a mistake, that is exactly what comes out on this subject.

Quote:If you are ashamed of me and of my teaching in this godless and wicked day, then the Son of Man will be ashamed of you when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels. And he went on to say, “I tell you, there are some here who will not die until they have seen the Kingdom of God come with power.” (Mark 8:38 - 9:1)
Go ahead. Twist your brain into a pretzel trying to show how this is anything but a prophecy of the Last Judgment within the lives of those standing there.
