>>>So? Being both a postmillenialist and a preterist does not mean you are not a preterist.<<<
Are you really that thick-headed? The definition of Preterist means that all scripture is fulfilled. Postmillennialists, like myself, do not believe that.
>>>No, what you are defining is full preterism. Preterism is not limited to that definition.<<<
Yes it is. By definition, preterism means exactly that.
Jeesh! LOL!

“Yes it is. By definition, preterism means exactly that.”
No, that is not what the definition says, but since you insist on such a silly denial, let’s post the definition for the rest of the forum to see how wrong you are:
“Preterism is a view in Christian eschatology which holds that some or all of the biblical prophecies concerning the Last Days refer to events which took place in the first century after Christ’s birth, especially associated with the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. The term preterism comes from the Latin praeter, meaning past, since this view deems certain biblical prophecies as past, or already fulfilled.
Preterism is most dramatically contrasted with Futurism, the view that most prophecies regarding the End times, and passages referring to Last Days, Great Tribulation, and Judgment are still future and will immediately precede the return of Christ. Proponents of preterist views generally fall in one of two categories: Partial Preterism or Full Preterism.
Partial Preterists
Partial Preterism, the older of the two views, holds that prophecies such as the destruction of Jerusalem, the Antichrist, the Great Tribulation, and the advent of the Day of the Lord as a “judgment-coming” of Christ were fulfilled circa 70 AD when the Roman general (and future Emperor) Titus sacked Jerusalem and destroyed the Jewish Temple, putting a permanent stop to the daily animal sacrifices. It identifies “Babylon the great” (Revelation 17-18) with the ancient pagan City of Rome or Jerusalem.”
