I'll point out again, the quoted verses are describing the event that is promised to happen within the lifetime of those present, the first generation of Christians. I'll point out again, the prophesy of the likes of Mark 9:1 (the first prophesy) and the corresponding ones in Matt and Luke, actually make zero mention of generation, however as "some" standing there would not taste of death before they "SEE" the kingdom of God with power, we cannot say yes or no as to whether "they" would be part of the generation that "sees" the fig tree blossom = Fact. -------------------------The description in Mark, Matt, Luke, etc, does not relate to the Kingdom of God is within, which is another matter, or your ''the Holy Spirit spoke to Philip' or any symbolic or subjective event, but a literal return of Jesus in Power and Glory with the Angels of Heaven in the Clouds for all the tribes of Earth to see.....this does not describe a metaphor or an inner Kingdom of God or the Holy Spirit spoke to Philip, but a literal event, an event that was expected and awaited by the first Christians...but never happened. Again Drrrr - the events and verses your trying to align to the likes of Mark 9:1 DON'T and cannot align with them, HENCE they are NOT referring to "SEEING" the Kingdom of God with power or the Kingdom is within in you.

"So therefore, AGAIN you are showing signs that you have NOT got a clue as to what SEEING the Kingdom of God with power is, so therefore, YOU need to now demonstrate that you even had the right to debate me on this subject for goodness knows how long now BY, telling us "ALL" what you think - SEEING the kingdom of God with power means. I don't recall seeing your definition of the Kingdom of God. You have frequently brought this up (Kingdom of God) in your debate but I don't know whether you have a point, so could you please provide a definition.
