No.You do see the contradiction in your answer don't you?
I can't really agree with you and what you said at the start of the post.Ok so wow you guys still arguing about this stuff. We shall see one day anyway. Lol
The word 'end' in v.3 is 'synteleia', completion, consummation, end
The word WORLD in verse 3 is aiōn and it means...
for ever, an unbroken age, perpetuity of time, eternity, the worlds, universe, period of time, age.
Vines says...
"AION is not the world, but a period or epoch or era in which events take place."
Yes, but not all instances. It can sometimes refer to past ages. While I agree with you that Christ's 2nd coming closes or ends the age, can you provide scripture on this?In nearly every instance where the word 'aion' (world) is used with the word end, it is used to describe the end of something in the future. Jesus opened the age (world) when he died and Rose again. His visible return closes or ENDS the age when he returns.
Now lets look at Hebrews 9 and compare. It uses the same word for end and world as in Mathew 24 and several other places. UH OH I'm done... but, there is a difference.
Hebrews 9:26 is the only place the word eon is eonS or PLURAL when used in the phrase "end of the world." "World" not being a great word for 'eonS.' Age/AGES is much better. In Hebrews 9 it should NOT be rendered "the end of the age" BUT "the end of the ages." So that needs to be considered in the context of the passage.
The very last 'enemy' is Death, that wont be done away with until after the Great White Throne Judgement, after the Millennium.
He will be in heaven
That leaves you as the only one who is not mistaken.the authors of our bible are often mistaken.
The Biblical facts are: Jesus will destroy His enemies in the Psalms 83, G/M and Armageddon attacks. He then commences His Millennium reign.However, if death, as you say, is defeated 'after the millennium', but Christ is on earth during the millennium, how can Christ be in heaven until ALL his enemies are defeated as the scriptures say?

At the end of the Mill, the New Jerusalem and God Himself come down to earth. Revelation 21:1-4 Therefore heaven will be on earth, and then Death will be no more.
What is your literal explanation for Genesis 3:15, which is the first prophecy in Scripture?99% of Revelation has not happened. Don't let you're mentors mislead and deceive you any more.
I really like this one GT...
Only in the mind of a historicist. Written at a time when people would interpret things different???
According to historicism, books like Mathew had 5 years to be preached, copied, and distributed throughout the world, in a time of severe persecution!
It's amazing what people fall for.

Yes, because they thought they were in the last days and it didn't happen as Written. But scripture stands and in God's timing: it all will come to pass.You interpret it very much differently than a 1st century Christian would!

If you don't believe that, why believe any of the Bible?
As proof that you don't know history, the final dispersion of the Jews by Emperor Hadrian, was in 135 AD.It did come to pass. As Jesus stated, in their generation! By 70AD
No preterist I know of denies:As proof that you don't know history, the final dispersion of the Jews by Emperor Hadrian, was in 135 AD.
A knowledge of history and a proper reading of the Bible, is enough for anyone to know that much remains to be fulfilled. It is just denial and a pathetic wish to avoid any hard times ahead, that drives preterism.
