Preterists don't have to fret about "end times"...'tis a philosophy worth a look-see. One can concentrate on building the Kingdom instead of guessing about the timing of the Rapture.
With all due respect to you, I am not a Preterist, or a Rapturist, however, I know that all end time senarios in the Bible revolve around Israel.
The Bible is very clear that they will become a cup of trembling for the entire world, and that conflict will be constant and with increasing violence!
As one who believes strongly in the Word, I do not fear the end times either. However, I do see the signs in the world around us leading to the great day spoken of throughout the Word.
Look up, and be happy !
I agree.
"When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift a standard against him." Isa 59:19
However, I do like the end of this thread...today is a good day, in fact the best day, to invite the Lord Jesus into your life.
