The Church WAS spared the tribulation - in 67-70 AD. They all left town (as Jesus had tole them to do) and fled before the destruction of Jerusalem. Not a single Christian was slain as non-believing Israel was virtually destroyed.

It is debatable whether this is true or not. However what is not debatable is that when the Christians in Jerusalem escaped to Pella, it was in the middle of the Roman siege of Jerusalem when Titus was briefly called back to Rome to help his father ascend the Roman throne.

Preterism - a Christian eschatological view, interprets some (partial preterism) or all (full preterism) prophecies of the Bible as events which have already happened.
Sorry my friend, that is a wrongful interpretation of scripture.
