(Sorry I don't have my Bible in front of me by the way.) How do you explain the view that Dispensationalists typically hold to, which is that the beast will die and be resurrected, if Nero is the beast? In addition, you said that John the Revelator meant 666 to be used as a secret code of the church to refer to Nero. Do you know of any historical church writings in which church members wrote about the beast 666 and the context of the writing would seem to indicate that they were talking about Nero to buttress your views further?

It is possible that Cook's nomenclature is unique, but I would find that hard to believe.<BR/><BR/>It's true that in this context I am differentiating between orthodox and unorthodox preterists, but ordinarily, I just say "Preterists" to refer to my position and "Hymenaean Preterist" to refer to the belief that the second coming of Christ has already occurred and that the resurrection of the dead has already happened.Adam Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05826908205996140341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-92169363015443233682007-11-26T13:52:00.000-06:002007-11-26T13:52:00.000-06:00But when you say 'preterist', most people when the...But when you say 'preterist', most people when they hear that, if they know anything about 'preterism' will think of full preterism, not the 'partial' kind.<BR/><BR/>So what about the term 'orthodox preterism', where did you get this term?Andrew Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02868426672297502328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-60385283079507571342007-11-26T11:31:00.000-06:002007-11-26T11:31:00.000-06:00I can only speak for myself, but I prefer to use t...I can only speak for myself, but I prefer to use the term 'preterist.' The reason I do not use the term 'partial preterist' is because I do not like to define my view in light of others, at least as much as possible. In other word, I like to state what I am<I>for</I> and and what I am <I>against</I>. To use the term 'partial preterist' also gives the heretics the term 'preterist.' I am not ready to do this.Josh Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11640837095855180429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-47463673774880453562007-11-26T07:58:00.000-06:002007-11-26T07:58:00.000-06:00So, Why is there no need for 'partial preterism'? ...So, <BR/>Why is there no need for 'partial preterism'? What is the difference between 'partial preterism' and 'orthodox preterism'? What is the problem with the term 'partial preterism'? Why do you long to call your position 'orthodox preterism'?

That is very "sick" of you. <BR/><BR/>Now to your comment, I agree with you! It also sucks when Calvinists get called "Hyper Calvinists" by those who do not like the Reformed faith.
