AD 70 A Shadow of the Real End? AD 70 A Shadow of the Real End? Recently, I had the privilege of reviewing Don Preston's new book AD 70 A Shadow of the Real End?, (available in paperback and on Kindle). It was one of the most exciting and refreshing reads on eschatology I have been privileged to experience in a while. If you've never speed read before, or thought it was impossible, just pick up this book. You'll be racing through the chapters to get to the next argument as he dismantles sophistry in the most straight forward and simple fashion. Preston ...

Authority of the Bible and Preterist Eschatology

Does Matthew 24:31 present a dilemma for partial preterist Kenneth Gentry? While offering compelling arguments on behalf of his partial preterist position, many of ...

Many would like to make the subject of the resurrection a matter of the nature of the resurrection body only. While it is valid to address and identify the nature of the resurrection body, it is also valid to address Preterism's timing of the resurrection in eschatology if futurists and other rapture ready advocates expect to build a convincing case. "When Shall These Things Be" edited by Keith A. Mathison a book that sought to address the major issues of the preterit view with the hope of convincingly refuting them, Robert Strimple had these comments on the issue of time and resurrection. "Obviously an orthodox Christian response to hyper-preterism ...
