It is the teaching of a second coming of Christ, to reign on this earth, that is being debated.
I take the amillennial view that there is no literal "thousand years" (nor am I a Preterist), but since the Incarnation and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, He already reigns at the right hand of God on behalf of His Elect church, and has been gathering them unto Himself from the four corners of the world all this time. When all the Elect have been born, regenerated and saved through faith in Him, then the world will be destroyed with fire, judged, and Christ's everlasting Kingdom will be established in the new heavens and new earth.
IOW's most of the OT prophecies have been fulfilled since the Incarnation in Christ Jesus as they pertained to the New Covenant promises.

Actually many who study Covenant Theology are agreeable with the Preterists' understanding of OT prophecies and NC fulfilments, for both camps are Christ-centered over all . . compared to Dispies who are centered to the point of distraction and error, on the literal nation of Israel, and futuristic land promises.
I happen to believe, as you, IMind is on the irrelevant side of the street. He doesn't impress me in the least.
Indeed he is.
He only meant some things

Literally or spiritually? Prets are awful selective about that.

Preterism is right about some things, and also wrong about some things.
Preterists claim we WERE meant to die physically. The Bible says we were NOT meant to die physically.
Genesis 3:22 And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever."
Preterists say that when we die we receive a body to live on in, and that it is the resurrection that Jesus speaks of; however, they are right about living on after the death of our physical body, but we will also get a new physical body at Jesus' next and last coming.

It's obvious from knowing NT history, but also knowing Jesus = Joshua (see the similarity) and then there's the whole theme in the letter to Hebrews. The issue of the generation strikes some similar themes.
This is satanic Preterism:
"If you deny the NC, then you deny what Christ Jesus accomplished on the cross.."-Craigie, thed admitted anti Semite
Vs.
"I never said someone was saved or not saved based on whether or not they believe the NC is in place today."-Tellalie
And this, from the obsessed psychopath, hater of the Jewish people, like his daddy the devil....
The accuser of the brethren, admitted anti-Semite, Tellalie, asserts that all those who take a dispensational viewpoint, are anti-Christ-on record:
"All dispensationalists are Darby followers."-Tellalie
"Darby followers don't believe that. Darby followers claim there will be animal sacrifices for sin in the future.You are anti-Christ when it comes to what was accomplished at the cross."-Tellalie

At first, in response to what he noted about preterism, but it fits what you said about Tet as well. He's completely arbitrary.

There is nothing abitrary when Christ says YOU WILL SEE THE CITY SURROUNDED for destruction and you should leave. And it was and they did.
I don't care what happens to your pet view of Mt24A, that is what happened.

I believe you are right about that scripture.
However, is Preterism right about we were not meant to live forever? Is Preterism right about receiving a body at death?
