Before You Debate A Full Preterist

Okay so you just found out about this weird position called Full Preterism; that says Jesus came back in the year 70A.D. and you want to clobber the next Full Preterist you see with a storm of proof-texts you have ready to whip out. I mean, it should be easy enough to show that Full Preterism can't be true because a lot of things haven't happened yet right? But before you slip on your theological boxing gloves, consider what you're getting yourself into.

FULL PRETERIST READY

Are you really ready to take on a Full Preterist? Do you know their proof-texts? What about all the places in the Bible where Jesus talks about coming soon/at hand/shortly/quickly? Do you know their answers to all of your silver bullets, because I promise you they have an answer whether you think it is convincing or not. If you are not careful, as you attempt to debate a Full Preterist, you may either find yourself become one or making your audience consider becoming one...if you're not ready.
