By: Michael J. Sullivan – Copyright 2018 – all rights reserved. Thank you for your Christian charity and honesty in advance. Introduction: The first thing any Futurist Pastor, commentary, Bible College or Seminary professor and or scholar is going to tell you is just how “very difficult” (allegedly) and that there are just so many “various views” of Daniel 9:24-27…
Commentators have long understood that Daniel 12:2 is the source for Jesus’ teaching on the resurrection in John 5:28-29 because the only OT passage which mentions a resurrection for both the righteous and the wicked is Daniel 12:2 and the only OT passage addressing “eternal life” is Daniel 12:2. G.K. Beale points out an additional connection – in that Jesus…
(The research contained in this article is documented in my chapter and in our book, House Divided Bridging the Gap in Reformed Eschatology A Preterist Response to When Shall These Things Be?) I have been a full preterist and a 5 point Calvinist for over 25 years and it never ceases to amaze me when some of my Reformed or…
In 1989 Greg Bahnsen, Kenneth Gentry, Gary DeMar and Gary North produced House Divided the Break-up of Dispensational Theology which sought to answer their dispensational critics when it came to theonomy and their eschatology – postmillennial partial preterism. Gary DeMar suggested the title of the book and its apologetic strategy was to “reformulate” Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 12:25 into this,…
I have been a full preterist now for well over 20 years and have been following Gary DeMar and American Vision’s (AV) writings the entire time. And there is nothing more upsetting to me than to watch DeMar and AV make these kind of claims: DeMar and his postmillennial partial preterist colleagues are allegedly winning the debate on eschatology. Full preterism is…
Dear Mr. Mathison, I did want to formally respond to you concerning who actually “bears the burden” in this debate to respond and your communication with me as to why you have not responded let alone acknowledged that a full preterist response has been given to your book, When Shall These Things Be? A Reformed Response to Hyper-Preterism vs. our…

Is there a corporate context to being born again when Christ’s Kingdom came at His parousia in AD 70? What “world” did Christ come to save and redeem? Tune in and give me your thoughts.
Most agree that Matthew 24:1-34 contain the fall of Jerusalem, but do verses 35-36ff. indicate a change of subject to another coming of Christ to end and renew planet earth? We and other Partial Preterists such as Gary DeMar, Joel McDurmon and Keith Mathison argue “no.” But then does it follow from these Partial Preterists that Jesus didn’t have much…
Mike Sullivan and William Bell wrap up their series on what theologians have called, “The Big Three” (Matt. 10:22-23; 16:27-28; 24:34). Did Jesus in fact predict that His Second Coming, end of the age, de-creation and resurrection would occur within some of the lifetimes of His contemporary audience or in their “this generation”? Tune in and you be a Beren…
Would Christ come as lightning or as the bright light of the sun shining from the east to the west within the AD 30 – AD 70 “this generation” (Matt. 24:27-34)? Was Jesus predicting the end of the planet earth in Matt. 24:29 or the end of the Old Covenant world order and the casting down of apostate Jerusalem’s civil…
Mike Sullivan and William Bell continue their study of Matthew 24 – 25 discussing how the Great Commission of Matt. 24:14 was fulfilled by the end of the OC age in AD 70. Emphasis is also placed on how Jesus in Matt. 24:15 posits the end of the 70 weeks of Daniel 9:24-27 [“abomination that causes desolation until the end…
Since so many agree (not just Full Preterists) that one’s interpretation of Matthew 24-25 affects how they will see the rest of eschatology played out in the NT a crucial understanding of Jesus’ teaching here is crucial. Myself and William Bell tackle this alleged “difficult” passage that “scholars have disagreed on” with clarity and sound exegesis all the while demonstrating…
Sam Frost continues to try and convince people that he is some kind of eschatological expert in refuting Full Preterism and yet as this show demonstrates (and articles here on this site) he cannot deal with the basic fundamental Full Preterist exegetical arguments of Matt. 16:27-28 let alone how John Calvin and the Reformed Church understands such passages as Matt.…
