Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

Erased

I removed to keep from spreading bitterness or resentment.

Thanks Bro, but you can remove this one to and I'll do the same to this one.

If we forgive we will also totally remove any justifations for our actions.

I haven't read this whole thread, so sorry if this is a moot point. But, it seems to be a full preterist you must put a lot of stock into non-biblical writings (the turncoat Josephus for instance who was pretty much a pawn of the Romans,) to deal with difficult passages about the second coming. Would not God have made this type of second coming more understandable to the Church? Why was it not written by the church after 70AD that this was the second coming? Why did Christendom still wait for a literal second coming.

They do have to put all their stock into non biblical doctrine and writings of men who twist all doctrine to try to contort it into the most unbiblical preterist view. When Jesus returns, the whole world will see him and not one wicked one will be left alive on earth to enter into the millennial reign -neither of the Jews or of the Gentiles. -But as for me, as a waiting for the bridegroom Believer, I do not believe I will dwell on earth after the rapture of the Church (whose removal from earth allows the night of the beginning of the Day of the LORD to commence, which night must come before the dawn of that last Day), until after the thousand years are finished, of the Sabbath rest for this earth, of its last thousand years before the regeneration of the heavens and the earth -then I'm going to return with all the regenerated glorified saints, to dwell on this regenerated earth with all the human sons of God who are adopted from Adam, and are the born again in spirit and body, =regenerated sons of God, in Christ, the New Man. ~~~~~~~~~~```````````````````````````````````````````` ```````Why do you say Josephus was a turncoat?
