Welcome to properpreterism.org a scriptural look at Preterism. Christianity no doubt has been divided in many critical areas throughout the ages. Regarding all the denominations, one might say there are more splits and mergers than the stock market. Understanding Preterism past fulfillment has opened the door for many as the beginning to much biblical understanding. Some assert, if it was as easy as we're making it to sound there wouldn't be so many denominations. Then should we say, "God bless His heart, tried but just couldn't convey His message to us?". In implying such a notion we are saying God is so much smarter than us that He didn't know what level of intelligence to convey His message and somehow He made it harder than He thought, so there is no way we can know for sure! In essence then He tried, but didn't quite succeed to know our intelligence capability, so we can't really know, not giving Him much credit for being that smart afterall. If that was the case, the studying He admonishes us to do would just be a futile expectation of His. Some misconstrue it's some type of humility thing, God keeping us in the dark keeps us humble, but this does not stack up to the admonishment He gives us "to study and to know". Jesus said in Matt 22:29 they did err not knowing the Scriptures. Why didn't He just say it was a mystery but I'm revealing it to you now, if they weren't supposed to know? We are to know and be humble at the same time. Knowing teaches you the nature of God and can make you humble. On the other hand, does all the diversity take away the credibility of the Bible or is it just another result of the fallen nature of mankind’s inability to always reason properly--just like disagreement we see in non-religious areas of life? I tend to think the latter, because diversity is everywhere in many areas of life. The point is, it does not have to be that difficult, God is not the author of confusion, man is the author of confusion and man has complicated God's word to no end. So what we have to begin to do is uncomplicate what man has complicated while realizing we don't have to get overwhelmed. And get into some deeper study no longer just trusting the man in the suit (past or present), because there are no more Holy Inspired people despite what some might say. The Bible is and should be the only anchor we have today.
- 1948 when the modern day land of Israel became a Jewish state is a non-event to others of the preterist persuasion; our contention is Biblical Prophecy is being fulfilled, only not with the House of Israel as most Christians suppose, but with the apostate House of Judah (now a dry tree Luke 23:31) ! The ingathring of the House of Israel was a 1st century event, but Judah (connected to the land) was to be a much later event. read more & comment
