Cop out.

:) I'm just giving you more time to scrounge up your 'answer' TC. You've failed miserably so far to match the events of AD 70 with Mt 24.

That matchup is clear as even many futurists are forced to admit. I provided one simple piece of evidence from the writings of Marcellus Kik where he carefully compares Christ's language in Matthew 24 with the prophecies of the OT.

Dispensartionalists, on the other hand, do not compare Scripture with Scripture, preferring the simplistic approach of reading the Bible in the light of the evening newspaper and claiming it is all "obvious". That does not trump sound biblical exegesis.

If you are really interested in understanding the issues, there amy many good articles and texts on the subject. I suggest you start with this one: On the "transitional verses" in Matthew 24.
