So i guess if all prophecy was fulfilled around 70 A.D. then we have no prophetic guide for the present day, according to the preterist view. I do not believe this.

So, if X will commit a murder on a cloudy holiday and there is a cloudy holiday, does that absolutely mean X will commit his murder on that particular cloudy holiday?

14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

John chapter 14.

He has gone (somewhere else - Father’s house).
To prepare a place for us -His bride.
He will come again (here)
And receive (take) us
That where He is, we can be also.

I believe firmly that we are the generation that will experience this joy.
Peace

I dare say that not one Christian in a hundred understands the Old Testament context of New Testament prophecy.

Including you Charles ...

Daniel 7:13 is the clear background for the coming on the clouds of Matt. 24 ... as is the abomination of desolation a reference to Dan 9.

Preterism is merely the hyper application of allegory to appease liberal scholars who claim Jesus had to mean 40+ years when He said 'this generation' ...

It is an eschatological view that stands or falls on WHEN the book of Revelation was written.
