What Is a "Coming of God"?

Anyone who thinks Revelation was written prior to 70AD has no concept of what scripture really says.

Preterist alert

Don't even need an alert ... the title gives it away ... without reading the blog or website you know they are trying to make the 70 AD event the 'coming of Christ' ...

Preterism is the easiest eschatological system to dispense with ... but vigilance must be maintained because they scream the loudest.

Here is the internal evidence. The book of Revelation was written while the temple was still standing.

A complete refutation of the preterist dating of Revelation is here ...

I believe you the evidence points to the fact that John wrote the Revelation prior to AD 70. Here is the internal evidence.

So you are saying Jesus floated down from the clouds in 70 AD?

Acts chapter 1 tells us "And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”"

What I meant to say is that I believe you will see that the evidence points to the fact that Revelation was written prior to AD 70.

Yes, he did come in the clouds at the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple. He fulfilled his promise to the Pharisees who had him murdered when he told them,
Mat 26:64 “You have said so. But I tell you, from now on YOU WILL SEE the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.” There is no other answer for this promise.

Proof? Scripture?
