Or as one of the ladies at TD this past weekend was fond of saying, "Tell it!" I like that, however country it sounds--kinda gets at the whole "proclaim" thing. Preach it!

I, too, have had major theological presumptions demolished, which has led me to think twice before automatically disregarding a new point of view, especially when the only reason I would reject it out of hand is that "I like my belief just fine, thank you very much". As convinced as I am, I am ready and willing to reject preterism, as soon as someone shows me real weaknesses in my position and the same number of strengths and consistency in another position -- but that hasn't happened yet. I can tell you for sure, I've been there and examined premillennial futurism, and it just doesn't cut it. Postmillennialism is better, but only of the preteristic type (i.e. it acknowledges a first-century commencement of the millennium). Thanks for the response. Well see, that’s it, isn’t it?
