Subject: Preterism refuted using Scripture alone? |
Bible Note: Dear Coper, The eschatology questions are debatable. But you certainly won't find "lack of serious thought" on the nature of the resurrection. That "spiritual body" stuff is often promulgated by Mormons, and a few other fringe teachers. It certainly isn't taught by Christian orthodoxy (see post #183147), nor is it supported by a sound exegesis of Scripture. I'm curious about that statement you made to our Brother Brad: "I am still frustrated with the seeming lack of serious thought behind the opinions of those opposing preterism." (sic) I've come across rather extensive discussions of Preterism in just about every systematic theology I've had the pleasure of perusing. It has been commonly debated since Athanasius and Augustine, and far more frequently in the last four centuries. I'd venture to suppose that theologians of every eschatological stripe have given serious thought to the question. If there seems to be a lack of serious thought on the topic by those in disagreement with Preterism, I'd encourage you to do more extensive reading. In Him, Doc |
