  Preterism

  when i started to do my research concerning ttatt, i started to see the scriptures in a different light.

  one thing i noticed is that when the epistles talk about the last days, christs presence, the ressurection to heaven; the writers were speaking specifically of their time, not some two thousand years later.

  even when jesus speaks of his presence and the kingdom being established, he was talking to his disciples of that time and what they were soon to expect.

  Hi Chris

  You got it right, the NT prophecies were fulfilled the first century. This takes the wind out of 1914 and all the other guesses by the Jehovah Witness organization. And all those Christian News Paper prophets with a no show of Christ in our day. Although the label preterism turns off people, the concept is growing among Christians today. And will continue to grow since the dogma is truthful if studies. My question is how does Rethinking Hell fit into the theology? How did those first century Jewish believers understand the word Gehenna. Does it line up with the preterist view.
