Will this generation see God's Kingdom established on Earth?

We have seen how seven biblically prophesied circumstances could not have come to pass until recent times.

In fact, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948 was clearly a major turning point in the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, as was the acquisition of the hydrogen bomb by the two superpowers of the 1950s that led to the period of mutually assured destruction.

All has now become possible. This, in turn, makes it much more likely that our generation will live to see Jesus Christ return and establish the Kingdom of God on earth. After all, Jesus Himself said that once these things begin, the generation alive at that time "will by no means pass away till all these things take place" (Matthew 24:34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.).

It's both sobering and encouraging to think that we appear to be living in the generation that will ultimately witness the most important event in the history of mankind. As Jesus Christ tells His followers in Luke 21:28And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh., "Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near."
