BTW, the millions of unbelieving Jews who died in Jerusalem during the "days of vengeance" did not consider Rome a paper tiger.

If the second coming was fulfilled in 70 AD why hasn't Satan been bound?

***If the second coming was fulfilled in 70 AD why hasn’t Satan been bound?***

Let me clarify 2 things:

#1. None of the Preterist here believe that THE second coming was fulfilled in 70AD. At least, how the Dispensationalists understand it phrase. There are many who do believe that there was a coming in judgment on the nation of Israel and on Jerusalem, but there are not HERE any who believe that the events in 70AD completed ALL prophecy in the Bible.

#2. It is a simple gospel matter that Satan has been bound, and has always been bound in one form or fashion. It is just that he is NOT bound, nor will ever be bound, in the sense that Premillennialists of all stripes claim that he will be bound during the Mellinnial reign of Christ.

This is gospel: the strongman has been bound and the Lord is currently plundering his house.

Who (besides Uncle Chip) said the second coming was fulfilled in AD70? Not I.

Besides, the second coming comes at the end of the "thousand years" not the beginning, at least according to the amil/postmil positions.
