Full Preterism: The Assault on Orthodox Christianity: An Apologetic Against the Full Preterist Heresy

By Stephen Whitsett

The number one assault on Orthodox Christianity today is the reemergence of the Hymenaeus and Philetus heresy in saying the resurrection is past and so by default so is the second coming, fulfilled in AD 70. This view is known as Full, Realized, or Hyper Preterism. In this view, it fails in many foundational doctrines, and yet still wants to be labeled as "Christian" and is mutating from within its own constituents. Attacks against the church come from many different directions but the one that hurts the most is the one that comes from within. In the midst of church turmoil one more assault has risen up from the enemy, from within the church, and so claims to be a "Orthodox Christian" doctrine, yet this doctrine denies the bodily return of Christ, the ongoing incarnation, and the bodily resurrection of the saints in a future appearing of Christ. The AD 70 doctrine is clearly rejected by Orthodox Christianity but because of the aggressive nature of the adherents in seeking to reform Christianity with its myths and doctrine of demons, ignoring it is no longer an option. You tube videos and FACEBOOK groups are becoming prolific and academic papers are being written and debates publicized but a clear refutation of the specifics is absent from the Church landscape. People want to know why it's wrong because the arguments being presented are subtle and peppered with truth. The way in which people are introduced to the doctrine and in the way it is advertised by its adherents, is disarming if not outright deceptive as they seek to gain followers. They are not labeled as a separate denomination or religious group but thrives within the Churches of Christ from which it started and spreads. Efforts to stifle the movement are non-existent on a "Denominational" level.This work goes through the main arguments supporting the Pre-Millennial position in opposition to the Dispensationalist and Preterist paradigms. This work also encompasses the foundational arguments given by Full Preterist for their paradigm and provides the answers through the timeless Theology of the church.
