Preterism is the gateway drug to anti-semitism. The idea that all the prophecies regarding Israel have been fulfilled and are done and over is at its root-human pride. Rising up to their full humanistic height, those who profess this lie, are saying, we will not be grafted into this tree. It is a denial of Romans 9-11 in its entirety.
It proposes a withdrawl and an ending to the gifts and calling of God. Israel and Jerusalem are right there for all to see, as God sets the stage for the fulfillment of all prophecy. Why, oh why, would anyone cling to a system that denies God the ability to do what He says He will do. Romans 11:18 do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant,remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.
Scripture is clear.
Romans 11:25 For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery—so that you will not be wise in your own estimation—
Scripture is clear.
Ignore this truth and you will become 'wise in your own estimation.' My short but painful dealing with preterists, is that they are very, very, wise in their own estimation.
Here is the call to the church. (which preterism robs from the church)
Romans 11:31 so these (Jews) also now have been disobedient, that because of the mercy shown to you(the church) they also may now be shown mercy.
Rise up church and shake off your preterist slumber!
