“This Generation Shall Not Pass,
until All These Things be Fulfilled”
Matt 24:34
What “Things”?
And Are WE “That Generation”?
By Lorraine Day, M.D.
In Matthew, Chapter 21, Jesus cleanses the temple. In Matthew, Chapter 23, He pronounces “Woes” upon the Pharisees calling them blind guides, hypocrites, serpents, a generation of vipers, and telling them they are responsible for “all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias.
Jesus also told Jerusalem and the Pharisees that their “house (temple) is left unto you desolate.” Matt 24:38
Then Jesus went out from the temple and His disciples came to Him to comment on the beautiful buildings of the temple, to which Jesus responded:
“See ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down.” Matt 24:2
Jesus was informing them that their temple – the building that most Israelites held in higher esteem than the God whose presence had resided IN the temple- would soon be destroyed completely.
“And as He sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when shall these things be? (When shall the temple be destroyed?) And what shall be the sign of thy coming (the Second coming of Christ) and the end of the eon (literal translation)?” Matt 24:3
The disciples were asking about two things: 1) when the temple would be destroyed, and 2) when would Jesus return in the Second Coming.
Jesus’ response was composed of a dual prophecy, as He was answering both questions in Chapter 24.
Vs 4 “And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
False Christs will come:
Vs 5 “For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Wars and Rumors of Wars
Vs 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Nations and “Kingdoms”
Vs 7a For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
This is still Jesus speaking, and Jesus doesn’t use euphemisms in His Word. We know what “nations” are, but what does He mean by “kingdom rising against kingdom”?
In the Old Testament, particularly in Daniel, many “kingdoms” were spoken of. But those have vanished from history.
There are no “kingdoms” at the present time. Or are there?
Here is a map of the world, published by the Club of Rome – a New World Order organization whose main objective is destroying most of the people who live on the earth. This map was drawn up in 1976 showing the TEN KINGDOMS of the earth the New World Order is now establishing.
The First Kingdom is the already established European Union. The Second Kingdom which is being formed right now is the North American Union: Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. The formation of all the rest of theTen Kingdoms on this map are also in progress, without any mainstream media fanfare.
Vs.7b And there shall be famines, and pestilences (fatal epidemic diseases) and earthquakes in many different places.
Coming Famines
As this is being written, the New World Order is making serious preparations to bring severe famines to America and other developed countries just like those that have been occurring for decades in the undeveloped countries.
1. U.S. Wheat Stockpiles are the Lowest in 59 years

Pestilences (Fatal Epidemic Diseases)
AIDS has killed, and is continuing to kill, millions around the world, including in America.
Cancer is now in epidemic proportions in the U.S. One out of every two will develop cancer in his or her lifetime. Within a few years, it is estimated that everyone in America will develop cancer in his or her lifetime.
Heart Disease kills 1/2 Million people every year in America.
Tuberculosis is on the rise around in the world, including in America.
Antibiotic resistant infections of all types are raging out of control.
New diseases, including SARS, Swine Flu, Bird flu (the last three purposely generated by the U.S. government) are being promoted by the Mainstream media as coming “killer” diseases.
The huge increase in vaccinations required for school children and military troops are causing major increases in old and new diseases, including autism and sudden infant death syndrome in children, as well as meningitis, learning disabilities and a host of other serious diseases.
Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Legionnaire’s Disease, Morgellon’s and many other new and unusual diseases are appearing.
Earthquakes in many different places
December 31, 2012 – EARTHCHANGES – In recent weeks, worldwide earthquake data indicates an increase in the magnitude and a significant increase in the frequency (magnitude 5.5+) of earthquakes. Current graphs clearly show an alarming worldwide trend of increasing earthquake strength and frequency. These results are in agreement with the USGS statistics page, which shows an increase in the frequency of stronger earthquakes (M 5.0+). These trends also show that the depth of earthquakes has diminished, they occur closer to the Earth’s surface. Shallow earthquakes occur along fault lines and are due to the accumulation of stress. Earthquake waves can also propagate far enough to trigger other earthquakes; this may explain the noted increase in earthquakes.

H.A.A.R.P Weather Control Technology
The H.A.A.R.P. program is the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program funded by the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, the University of Alaska, and DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. It can create Scalar waves that can be projected into the atmosphere, bounce off the ionosphere, then back down into the earth to specific levels in order to cause earthquakes. Scalar waves can also be used to decrease or intensify hurricanes or other weather disasters, including torrential rains on an advancing, opposing army. This technology was discovered by Nikola Tesla a Serbian-American inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, who developed the modern alternating current (AC) and was arguably the most amazing and talented inventor in the history of America.
News World Wide has received a confirmed inside information of a successful test of the H.A.A.R.P. Project that targeted Japan as a total success. Military insiders say that H.A.A.R.P. scientist were overjoyed when the direct hit of harmonic waves that hit the cost of Japan that triggered a 8.9 Richter scale earthquake causing a devastating tsunami Friday, March 11, 2011 at 05:46:23 UTC that resulted in severe damage to the Fukushima nuclear reactors. Many at the H.A.A.R.P project are still celebrating their new global weapon system that can deliver anything from adverse weather conditions to hurricanes (including hurricane Katrina), tornadoes and earthquakes, and even manipulating human minds. The source said that they now control all electromagnetic wave lengths and this latest test further proves that one global hidden dictator can now dominate the world. The source would not comment on who this was. He also stated that the next target will be the center earth. If this test is successful they hope to explode the earth completely unless all demands are met with all countries. Apparently something more is going on behind the scenes. The source would not comment any further why Japan was a target.
News World Wide has confirmed these sources of an active H.A.A.R.P. Test on Friday, March 11, 2011 at 05:46:23 UTC .
Now these despots can produce a hurricane, an earthquake, or a tsunami anywhere on earth at any time.
Vs. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Vs. 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
Obviously, this is the beginning of the 3 1/2 year time of trouble (tribulation) (1260 days of Rev 12:6; 42 months of Rev 13:5) that ends with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
Vs 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another
Vs. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many
Vs. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Vs 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Vs 14 And this gospel (Good News) of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations ; and then shall the end come.
Vs 15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand?)
What is the “abomination of desolation. . . that stands in the holy place.”
In the previous chapter of Matthew, Chapter 23, Jesus, while at the temple, pronounces many “Woes” on the Pharisees, In verse 37, Jesus continues:
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
“Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
Jesus is clearly talking about the temple being left desolate because God’s presence was no longer there. Soon after Jesus cleansed the temple, He was crucified (Chapter 27) and at the moment of His death, the following occurred:
“And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent.” Matt 27:51
Bible scholars claim that the temple veil (curtain) between the holy place and the most holy place was at least 4 inches thick. This curtain was ripped from top to bottom, obviously by God’s supernatural power, showing that God’s presence (the Shekinah glory that hovered over the ark of the covenant in the most holy place) was no longer there.
Therefore, we can assume that when the Bible talks about the “abomination of desolation” it means that God’s presence is no longer there.
The Floor Plan of the temple (tabernacle or sanctuary)s was as follows: As you entered the gate there was the altar of burnt offering, a type of the crucified Christ. And there was a laver, a type of baptism. The priests having washed at the laver were able to enter into the Holy Place to minister about sacred things.
In like manner, when one has been washed in baptism, he enters the ecclesia of God, God’s true followers, to deal with sacred things.
The lampstand with seven lights was a symbol of the Bible, the Word of God.
The incense offered up in the Holy Place represents the prayers of God’s followers.
On the north side was the table of shewbread. The word shewbread means “presence bread” (see Ex 25:30 – literal translation). “Presence bread” indicates that the Lord is with His ecclesia, teaching them the light of truth (the lampstand). In addition, Jesus referred to Himself as the “bread of life.”
Only the priests were allowed into the Holy Place, and only the priests were allowed to eat the “presence bread” – the “bread of life.”
Every true Christian is a priest of God.
“Ye are a royal priesthood.” 1 Peter 2:5
What does the “Holy Place” symbolize in this passage?
The “Holy Place” symbolizes God’s ecclesia – His followers.
Interpretation of “The abomination of desolation standing in the holy place”
This phrase refers to the total elimination of God/Jesus Christ and His presence from the churches – the acceptance of a One World Religion that has replaced the worship of Jesus Christ with the worship of secularism.
Vs 16 Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains:
There will be nowhere to turn for true Christians (“those in Judea” symbolically) except to Jesus Christ, our Rock, symbolized by the “mountains” – which symbolizes “strength.”
Skip to:
Vs 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
“Great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world.”
Not only are their nuclear weapons that can cause vast destruction, but the lingering radiation will kill, by causing cancer, the remaining people in the area who survived the initial assault.
Weather control, including manufactured earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, torrential rains, causing massive flooding, etc., will wreak havoc on the earth.
Man-made weapons including tiny drones the size of birds, or even insects, can target you, waiting for you outside your home until you appear, then it will come to kill you. You will not even know what hit you.
Electromagnetic waves are now produced that can cause you to hear voices in your head telling you to murder others or commit suicide yourself.
Nuclear weapons that can incinerate a person instantly, on the spot.
Weapons that can be used from a distance, to induce a fatal heart attack in a person, leaving no traces of its origin.
Chemicals that can be injected into you by a passer-by on the street that can cause cancer in your body.
Truly, this will be a “time of trouble” like none that has ever been seen on the face of the earth.
Vs 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Vs 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it NOT!
Vs 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
There already are “false Christs” on the earth including Lord Maitreya, a New Age “Christ” who is waiting to be brought out by the Illuminati.
Project Blue Beam has been available for 15 years, a program using lasers and holograms through which all the leaders of the major religions, Mohammed, Krishna, Buddha, and “Christ” and even “Mary” will be projected in the sky, appearing to be real, and “every eye shall see them” and every person will be able to hear in their “own language.” The whole earth will be directed to worship “Christ” – but it will be a New Age “Christ.”
People will believe, because they will “see it with their own eyes.”
Using the same laser and hologram techniques, an “Alien Invasion” will appear in the sky, frightening the population of the world into agreeing to give their allegiance to this New Age “Christ” who will “save” them from the hostile “Alien invaders.”
Vs 25 Behold, I have told you before.
Vs 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
Lord Maitreya, and other false “Christs” will appear on the earth, performing “signs and wonders” and deceiving many, including many who call themselves Christians.
Vs 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Christ’s Second Coming will be a world-wide event. Everyone will see it.
Vs 28 For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles (vultures) be gathered together.
The probable meaning of this text is that there will be so many signs near the end – at least for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear – that there will be more than ample evidence that Christ’s coming is “even at the door.”
Vs 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not giver her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Even now, “scientists” are discussing moving the position of the earth!! to avoid the predicted arrival of numerous meteors and asteroids. That foolish move would certainly disrupt the sun, moon and stars and cause gigantic upheavals on planet earth to the point that it is probable that all life on earth would be extinguished.
With the weather control techniques now employed by the governments of the U.S. and Russia (look up H.A.A.R.P. on the internet) to create hurricanes, heavy rains causing severe flooding, heat waves, earthquakes and tornadoes, using Scalar wave technology and other more advanced techniques, many episodes of nuclear testing, as well as all our ventures into outer space, it is not hard to assume that these severe disruptions of earth’s atmosphere could cause dire consequences in space, affecting the sun, moon and stars.
Even though at least one religious denomination believes that the prophecies in Vs 29 took place a hundred years ago in New England, this is a flawed and “cloistered” view of prophecy. These prophecies will be fulfilled in full view of the whole earth, not just a few people in a tiny portion of one country on the earth.
Vs 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Vs 31 And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
We are told to “watch” and understand the signs of the times as Christ’s coming draws near
Vs 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
Vs 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that He is near, even at the door.
Vs 34 Verily I say unto you, “This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
Which Generation is Jesus referring to? Certainly NOT the generation He was talking to at the time. They have all died.
The ONLY Generation Jesus could be speaking of is the Generation that is seeing ALL these things happening right before their eyes – OUR Generation!
However, almost all the people on earth, including virtually ALL Christians, are asleep. They have NO knowledge of what is happening in the world, except from the lies of the mainstream media that have lulled them all to sleep.
Remember, in the parable of the Virgins (Matt 25:1-13), 5 were wise and 5 were foolish – but they ALL fell asleep. The only one who was awake was the person who “cried out” announcing the arrival of the Bridegroom – Jesus Christ.
Vs 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.
The words of Jesus Christ are Sure! They WILL come to pass!
Vs 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
It is true that no one knows the day nor the hour , but Jesus Christ has told us when it is near – “even at the door.” Also notice that Jesus says, “no one knows the day nor the hour” but He doesn’t say that no one knows the year or the month. I’m not predicting ANY year or month, but Jesus does promise us that we WILL know when it is near – IF we are aware of the “Signs of the Times.” Again, unfortunately, almost no Christians, including those denominations that “study” Daniel and Revelation, can identify the New World Order/Illuminati “players”, nor do they understand the “signs” that are taking place right before their eyes, including the following:
1. The formation of the Ten Kingdoms of the New World Order, including: the
EU, the formation of the North American Union, the formation of the Asian Union, and the rest of the Ten Kingdoms now forming.
2. The identification of the Beast Power – International Jewry
3. Agenda 21, including denial of medical care and euthanasia of the elderly and the disabled – the primary goal of ObamaCare, “Cap and Trade” setting CO2 and Oxygen limits applied to every citizen in America and on the earth, Sustainable Development and Re-wilding, all leading to Population Extermination
4. Weather Control – causing famines, riots, wars, and devastation of property leading to economic hardship and poverty
5. The Planned Destruction of the U.S. Military and Disarmament of every country on earth – except Israel, who runs the United Nations from behind the scenes.
6. The coming One World Religion of New Age Secular Humanism, leading to atheism, and ultimately to the worship of Lucifer
7. The ability to perpetrate an “Alien Invasion” Hoax, plus the technological ability to “create” the illusion of the Second Coming of Christ with holograms and lasers, that will fool almost everyone on earth.
8. The Creation of a Cashless Society – in order to decide who Will and who Will NOT be allowed to buy and sell.
9. A U.S. Police State run by Homeland Security with U.N. backing.
10. Numerous False Flag attacks by the U.S. Government against its own citizens, including the Randy Weaver episode, the Gordon Kahl episode, the Oklahoma Bombing, 9/11, the Colorado shooting, as well as total HOAXES such as Sandy Hook, the Boston Bombing, and the man in Woolwich (London), England who supposedly decapitated a soldier.
11. Destruction of the American Christian Culture
12. Using psychiatrists to “hospitalize and DRUG” true Christians and other dissenters who refuse to agree with the New World Order
(For more information on these, and many other, topics, please see this link: http://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/spiritual/home_study/home_bible_study.htm
Almost no Christians have any awareness of these many “signs” that are taking place right under their eyes and noses – right now!!
That’s why Jesus frequently said,
“He that has eyes, let him see…He that has ears, let him hear.” (See Matt 13:9-16)
Vs 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Vs 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark.
Vs 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
We are responsible for ALL we know – AND ALL that we have the opportunity to know. This information is available at the link given above, and it behooves every Christian to be aware of it and act accordingly.
Vs 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left
Vs 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
These verses have nothing to do with a supposed “Secret Rapture.” See this link for further explanation: http://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/rapture2.htm
Vs 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
Yet, almost NO ONE will be “watching.” Everyone will be asleep, including virtually ALL Christians, especially those in the Organized Churches!
Vs 43 But know this, that if the Goodman of the house had known in what watch (hour of the night) the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Vs 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of man cometh.
Vs 45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season?
Vs 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when He cometh shall find so doing.
Vs 47 Verily I say unto you, That He shall make him ruler over ALL His goods.
Vs 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delays his coming:
Vs 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
This is a perfect description of the total apostasy of the “Christian” church of today. Paganism is being amalgamated with remnants of Christianity – just like it was in the days of the Israelites.
“Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near Me with their mouth, and with their lips they do honour Me, but have removed their heart FAR from Me, and their fear (reverence) toward Me, is taught by the precept of men.” Isa 29:13
Christians “talk” a good game – they use the name of Jesus frequently in their worship services and even in their every-day speaking, but they believe in “man” – doctors, pastors, psychologists, counselors, support groups, other church members, and other family members – but NOT in God.
They demean Jesus Christ by putting His name on their tee-shirts, they act in plays and movies that denigrate the life of Christ, they bring Rock bands into the churches, they listen to “man” (pastors) tell them about Christ rather than getting to know Him first hand, many “speak in tongues” which is nothing more than the spiritualistic witchcraft of the worship of Satan, some “Christians” roll around on the floor thinking they are “in the spirit.
The churches have become nothing more than a poor excuse for a Kiwanis Club – a secular service club involved in “good works” - a place to meet their friends and pretend to be “Christians.”
Vs 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh NOT for Him, and in an hour he is not aware of.
Vs 51 And shall cut him off, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Every word in Matthew, Chapter 24, was spoken by Jesus, Himself. This is HIS assessment of the “Christian” church of today.
What examples do we have in the past for “Christians” being asleep and in darkness?
Noah and the Flood
Noah preached about the coming Flood for 120 years, yet he did not make even ONE convert. It is thought that there were approximately 3 Billion people on the earth at that time because they lived to be almost 1,000 years old and had hundreds of children. Yet only 8 people got on the ark: Noah, his wife, his 3 sons and their wives.
Jesus’ Crucifixion
During the 3 1/2 years that Jesus ministered on earth, He healed many, many people and even raised some from the dead. At two different times, He fed huge masses of people: in one instance approximately 12,000 people (4,000 men PLUS women and children) and in another instance approximately 15,000 people (5,000 men PLUS women and children)
Yet, at the crucifixion of Jesus, there were only FIVE people who stood by Him: His mother, Mary, and Mary Magdalene, plus two other women, and ONE disciple – John. ALL the others fled for their lives.
So, the Creator of the Universe only had FIVE people with Him when He was executed at the wish of the Pharisees – the Leaders of the Organized Church of Jesus’ day – those who were supposedly looking for the coming Messiah! But they didn’t even recognize Him when He stood right in front of them, because their hearts were evil – and He didn’t fit the description of what they had in mind – someone like Them!
So they had Him executed in the cruelest way!
In the same way, it will be the Organized “Christian” Churches of today, who will lead the way in calling for the death of True Christians because they will NOT recognize True Christians; because they won’t be like those in the “Organized Church!”
True Christians will be aware of the Signs of the Times – and share that information with those who want to know - something that will enrage the Leaders of the Organized Church, who will call for the Death of the True Christians – the true followers of Jesus Christ - just as the Pharisees called for the Death of Jesus Christ.
