While I have some degree of sympathy with his frustration with the dispensational camp, I don’t buy that kind of extreme preterist position on Revelation. You don’t have to be a preterist to see the folly of the dispensational timeline.

I am interested in hearing your idea of the folly you describe?

Meanwhile, it is clear from Mat 24:21: (For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be)....that a full preterist has to make the destruction of Jerusalem into something worse than Noah's flood or Sodom's destruction, or even, more recently: WW2

Thanks. I am not a preterist. I do believe in a future coming man of sin and a great tribulation.

I just don’t believe in a lot of the nonsense that surrounds those events in dispensational teaching.

The gaps and pauses, fits and starts in the dispensational chronology, that just aren't there in the text, maybe?
