I understood that the sacking of Jerusalem in 70 ad was part of Jesus prophecy...but it was not his ...”end times” prophecies. Daniel said that after the prince was “cut off the final “week” was to be held in abeyance until God had determined that the fullness of the gentiles had come in and that Israel be restored as a nation. There has been no universal beast numbering system. the Gog and Magog wars haven’t occurred yet. The earth has not lost 6 hours of its day night rotation yet and the moon still shows her light. The Mount of Olives has not split in 2 allowing the water at its center to flow east and west.(there is a fault line in the Mountain with a huge untapped reservoir of fresh water under the whole area) In short, Pretirist arguments just fall short. Unless you are prepared to call half the Bible false and myth, you’d better drop the pretirist mindset!
Sorry - I chose to believe Jesus when he tells his disciples that this generation will see it all. And again, in the first chapter of Revelation he tells John he will show him things which must take place soon.
Once you accept what Jesus said, the rest falls into place.
I stick with that.
