Matthew 16:28 Verily I say unto you, *There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.* Do you think Jesus was a liar & a false prophet? Or do you actually believe what He said?
Couldn't this vision be the answer to Matthew 16:28? And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead. Matthew 17:1-9 KJV
@@Ephesians28n9 No that was only six days later. Would be no point in Jesus prophesying that some of them standing there would not taste death, right? Here's a few more clear verses that prove Preterism. Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, *The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:* Matthew 16:28 Verily I say unto you, *There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.* Matthew 24:34 Verily I say unto you, *This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.* Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants *things which must shortly come to pass;* and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
@@Ephesians28n9 Also check this out... Did you know... the gospel was already proclaimed to the world? You have probably heard that the gospel will be proclaimed to the world then the end shall come, right? IT ALREADY HAPPENED!!! The end of the Old Covenant world did come in 70AD! Read the verses below... Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; AND THEN SHALL THE END COME. Romans 10:18 But I ask, did they not hear? INDEED THEY DID: "Their voice has gone out into ALL THE EARTH, their words TO THE ENDS OF THE WORLD." Colossians 1:23 If indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which HAS BEEN PROCLAIMED IN ALL CREATION UNDER HEAVEN... Did you realize it already happened? The gospel was proclaimed in all the world and the end of the age did come in 70AD, just as the bible said it would, when Jerusalem, the Temple, and animal sacrifice was destroyed and brought to an end! That's why there will be no future Temple in a future millennium with animal sacrifice, as all futurists falsely believe! (((That teaching is blasphemous as hell!))) Jesus' sacrifice was a once for all time sacrifice that already purged all sin for all time! The gospel was preached in all the world! The end of the age did come! Exactly as the bible said it would! Isn't this amazing?
According to preterism, all prophecy in the Bible is really history. The preterist interpretation of Scripture regards the book of Revelation as a symbolic picture of first-century conflicts, not a description of what will occur in the end times. The term preterism comes from the Latin praeter, meaning “past.” Thus, preterism is the view that the biblical prophecies concerning the “end times” have already been fulfilled-in the past. Preterism is directly opposed to futurism, which sees the end-times prophecies as having a still-future fulfillment. Preterism is divided into two types: full (or consistent) preterism and partial preterism. This article will confine the discussion to full preterism (or hyper-preterism, as some call it). Preterism denies the future prophetic quality of the book of Revelation. The preterist movement essentially teaches that all the end-times prophecies of the New Testament were fulfilled in AD 70 when the Romans attacked and destroyed Jerusalem. Preterism teaches that every event normally associated with the end times-Christ’s second coming, the tribulation, the resurrection of the dead, the final judgment-has already happened. (In the case of the final judgment, it still in the process of being fulfilled.) Jesus’ return to earth was a “spiritual” return, not a physical one. Preterism teaches that the Law was fulfilled in AD 70 and God’s covenant with Israel was ended. The “new heavens and new earth” spoken of in Revelation 21:1 is, to the preterist, a description of the world under the New Covenant. Just as a Christian is made a “new creation” (2 Corinthians 5:17), so the world under the New Covenant is a “new earth.” This aspect of preterism can easily lead to a belief in replacement theology. Preterists usually point to a passage in Jesus’ Olivet Discourse to bolster their argument. After Jesus describes some of the end-times happenings, He says, “Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened” (Matthew 24:34). The preterist takes this to mean that everything Jesus speaks of in Matthew 24 had to have occurred within one generation of His speaking-the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 was therefore “Judgment Day.” The problems with preterism are many. For one thing, God’s covenant with Israel is everlasting (Jeremiah 31:33-36), and there will be a future restoration of Israel (Isaiah 11:12). The apostle Paul warned against those who, like Hymenaeus and Philetus, teach falsely “that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some” (2 Timothy 2:17-18). And Jesus’ mention of “this generation” should be taken to mean the generation that is alive to see the beginning of the events described in Matthew 24. Eschatology is a complex subject, and the Bible’s use of apocalyptic imagery to relate many prophecies has led to a variety of interpretations of end-time events. There is room for some disagreement within Christianity regarding these things. However, full preterism has some serious flaws in that it denies the physical reality of Christ’s second coming and downplays the dreadful nature of the tribulation by restricting that event to the fall of Jerusalem.
