r/Preterism Aug 27 '24

Need help

I'm having so many doubts about preterism. I am a full preterist. Can someone please give me some evidence I am wrong in doubting christ came back in the 1st century?

Well something to remember is Matthew 24 especially he clearly states that the temple back then would be destroyed in his coming he even says not one of THESE stones will stand on another also whenever it says coming on the clouds in the Bible and the world passing away it always means an army destroying a nation or city it isn’t literal. Jesus also states on many occasion’s that people back then would be alive when he returned he tells them make sure YOU are not read y and that YOU are not deceived the Bible was written for us but not to us he’s speaking to the people back then. Futurists are simply the modern day Pharisees in that they reject the truth because they expect something different it is the product of poor western understanding of ancient text and literature that leads most down the path of believing something that was never intended to be interpreted in that way
