Thanks for the awesome book suggestion and will have to check it out - as it looks promisingI always like to suggest A Second Look At The Second Coming by T.L. Frazier. It's not partial-preterism per se so much as it's Amillennialism, which tends to carry partial-preterist tones in my opinion.
Frazier is an Eastern Orthodox Christian and so writes from the perspective of Ancient Christianity, he critiques (more accurately points out the lunacy of) some of the futurist nonsense that's been peddled the past half century, such as Hal Lindsey's The Late Great Planet Earth and the Left Behind series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins and then the second half of the book discusses the historic Christian views in contrast to the futurist views. Generally entertaining a partial-preterist and/or amillennialist view.
Steve Gregg is available on YouTube doing his book "Revelation: Four Views". Here's a link to the first partDoes anyone on this sticky listen to steve gregg at the narrow path? Im going to get the book charus mentioned. If anyone has material rhey can recommend please let me know.
God bless

if you know the view generally held by orthodox (partial) preterists on gog/magog and the loosing of satan, or have any internet reference material you could point, me towards in that study? i would appreciate it. Also i'd like to sere book reviews on this sticky of the above mentioned books by the posters here on this thread. if any of you have the time. Thank you and God bless.
I understand. We know based on theology of the eschaton there are labels. I don't put much stock in them either.ebedmelech;
I'm a free will preterist. Am I all alone? I'm also partial but I dont' really care for that term, I prefer orthodox preterist or traditional preterist.
1disciple got a bit upset and left the forum. He said someone was reporting him to the moderators.also, what happened to 1disciple that started this thread? I was hoping to glean a lot from his postings.
Say on, brother! You nailed that one.That's because in Futurism there is no real hermeneutic. You can pretty much interpret anything according to the whim of the moment. I would describe it as being based upon an anti-hermeneutic. It's the best publishing house and pop eschatology to ever come along. There is an endless river of nonsense that can be promoted from year to year, and the best part is that everyone has to be right because not one of them has a clue as to what they are talking about. The means that a total and abject moron can be as much of an eschatology expert as someone who's studied the Scriptures for decades.
Zat mean I have to forego my after-dinner dram until I log out here?
