WHEN THE 1ST CENTURY READERS READ THIS, WERE THEY MISLED OR LIED TO?

[Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His bond-servants, the things which MUST SOON TAKE PLACE; and He sent and communicated it by His angel to His bond-servant John,

[Revelation 1:3] Blessed is the one who reads, and those who hear the words of the prophecy and keep the things which are written in it; for THE TIME IS NEAR.

[Revelation 22:6] And he said to me, “These words are faithful and true”; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show His bond-servants the things which MUST SOON TAKE PLACE.

[Revelation 22:10] And he *said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for THE TIME IS NEAR.

WHAT ABOUT HIS DISCIPLES THAT WERE STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM WHEN HE SAID:

Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. [Matthew 24:34]

WHAT ABOUT [Matthew 16:28] “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

DID JESUS MISLEAD THEM?

Futurist always have to change the meaning of words to justify why fulfillment didn't take place when Jesus said it would.
