I became a preterist.

Yeah. That’s the ticket. Localize the Second Coming.... the same way that the Libs try to localize the worldwide flood of Noah’s day.

Okay, so R.C. Sproule is also a preterist. He is as wrong as this guy (about eschatology, though he is outstanding in virtually every other area of theology).

I still love my preterist brethren, however! Eschatology divides believers into several different camps, due to our imperfect understanding of he prophetic Scriptures.

The biggest separator, however, is this: Is the LORD going to give the Jews a literal (earthly-based) Millennial Kingdom with Christ ruling from Jerusalem — or not?

If not, then the Amils, preterists, and/or Post-Mils are probably on the right track.

I tend to disagree with them on this point, however, and anticipate a literal (post-Rapture/pre-Second Coming) Jerusalem-centered Millennium! So call me a wooden-headed literalist. (I have been called worse!)

correction: I should rather say that I believe the Millennium will be ushered in by the LORD at His Second Coming (but after the Rapture and after the Tribulation).

Apologies... open to comments, criticisms.
