Hello everyone, this is my first post in here.
My question (probably one of many) is In 2nd Thessalonians, Paul writes to them about there confusion of the day of the Lord and that it already happened or "is at hand"
For Pre Trib, the question is, Why would the Thessalonians write to Paul if they thought there was a "rapture and that Paul and them should of just disappeared? (a view I think is the most farfetched of all the views)
For the rest, If the Day of the Lord is the "LAST DAY" and the End of the world,
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.
How could the Thessalonians think the Day of the Lord happened when the world wasn't destroyed by fire? How could they think the world went on after the day of lord?
Im leaning towards partial preterism in my views, but I don't see how The bible can't see past ad 70 either and how The great tribulation (if in ad 70 says it will never be equaled when surely Muhammad was more of a false prophet then Rome), and how we are now in the "kingdom" If the power of Islam is not from satan then nothing ever was.
