Full-Preterism and Reformed Theology (Part 1 of 2: Intro)

[preteristaynrand]

if we claim to be without sin , we lie and the Truth is not in us. If we confess our sins , he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins. 1john 1:8-9

The kingdom of Heaven is now and part of the blessing of being in the kingdom of heaven is being able to wash our robes (confess our sins to God) that we may have the right to the tree of life and have fellowship with God. rev.22:14

Don't be too troubled by what the reformers want from you. God's word will set them straight.

I agree with your statement that " it is not fit to judge a brother in Christ' .

My question is this ; is it fit for a preterist to place himself under the teachings of dispensationalist pastors?

I believe it is not fit to do so.

How about this...

Christ fulfilled the Law, which only the Jews were under coincidentally.... the Old Covenant is obsolete and is passed now (post AD70)...

As Paul states, where there is no Law, sin is not reckoned. So while there is evil still, none of it is being counted as sin. Whereby humanity is now reconciled to God and we are ambassadors to tell them that! :)

2 Cor 5:18-20

But to enjoy the reality of the Kingdom (joy peace, etc...) one must gain eternal life (John 17:3)

While I lean towards the full-preterist view regarding "last days" prophecies, I don't agree 100% with all of it... just as I also lean towards Christian Universalism, but I don't agree with all of it either. lol

Thank God, we are saved by what Christ did and not in having perfect doctrine!

While doctrine is nice, it all means nothing if God's love and life are not in us... we are all learning day by day as the Spirit reveals more to us.

Peace to all, no matter how ya believe! :)
