The transition period of the "last days generation" was AD 30 - AD 70. What was temporary - physical: 1. The Old Covenant written on stone. 2. Physical kingdom: the Law, the Temple, the Priesthood, National Jews and Canaan. What is eternal - Spiritual: 1. New Covenant - written on the heart, a Spiritual kingdom, the Gospel. 2. The Church, Christ, Saints, the Word, Life and Heaven

Read 2 Corinthians 4:18 = Old Covenant form passing away 2 Corinthians 5:16 = New Covenant abides forever.

Both first and second comings of Christ have already been fulfilled, during the last days of the Old Covenant world, which were but shadows and types of Christ, who is the life, truth and substance, i.e. the reality. Not replacement theology, but ancient Israel's, promised, eternal fulfillment = the resurrection.
