The Subtlety of Heresy

by Jason Bradfield

It doesn’t appear to me that people just wake up one day and decide to be heretics. I certainly didn’t. If you had told me back in 2000 or earlier that i would eventually deny the Gospel with some whacked out, recently-innovated, antinomian, pelagian, eschatologically-driven view called hyper-preterism, i would have called you ‘nuts.’ Yet….in [...]

Preston Takes His Ball and Goes Home!

by Paul Gates

Since calling Mr. Preston out for his less than forth right representation of his “Christological” position to Criswell college, I’ve been rebutting “Full” aka hyperpreterist arguments on Mr. Preston’s Facebook page.  In addition to pointing out the superficial nature of hyperpreterist’s “exegesis” of Scripture I thought his readers should be made aware of his Docetic [...]

The Bell Rang Silent

by Paul Gates

As pointed out here hyperpeterists aka “full” preterists have confused two concepts of the ordo salutis, “regeneration” and “glorification” also referred to as the “resurrection of the dead”. In the linked article we demonstrated why William Bell’s “exegesis” of John 5:25-29 is fundamentally absurd. Mr. Bell claims John 5:25-29 is dealing with one concept. We [...]

Amillennialism and the Land Promise

by Jason Bradfield

One of the highlights for me in the recent McDurmon/Preston debate was when Joel opened up his affirmation of a future physical resurrection with an argument from Exodus 3; which is where Jesus

A Funny Thing Happened on The Way to Resurrection

by Samuel Frost

I recently caught this quote from the website (here): We get the same kind of body Christ has, but we do not get it the same way He got His, nor do we get our same physical body back like Christ did. We get a new spiritual body which arises out of the inner man. [...]

Is the Man of God’s Own Choosing on Your Side?

by Paul Gates

By Paul Gates During the question and answer portion of the Joel McDurmon Don Preston debate the question was asked if hyperpreterism, aka “full” preterism is a damnable heresy.  In follow-up to this question Mr. Preston seemed to imply that belief in Jesus Christ is what unites McDurmon and Preston.  Although Preston affirmed belief in [...]

William Bell Responds

by Samuel Frost

William Bell, one of the original pioneers of Covenant Eschatology (Full Preterism), recently wrote, “Reformed partial preterists claim as Sam Frost writes in his book, “…sola Scriptura–that the Bible alone is the ultimate authority determining Faith and practice, Why I Left Full Preterism, p. 7. Then just a few pages later, his left hand forgets [...]

McDurmon’s Affirmative. Preston’s Avoidance.

by Jason Bradfield

Here was Joel McDurmon’s opening affirmative speech, followed by Don Preston’s response. Notice that Don says barely a peep about the Job passage and though he touches on Luke 20, he didn’t really address the meat of the argument regarding the inheritance of the earth. And then, get this, Don accuses Joel of being “dispensational” [...]

Don Preston’s Contorted Logic

by Jason Bradfield

I caught only the tale end of the McDurmon – Preston debate last night and was able to view the entire debate tonight. To my delight, Joel McDurmon opened the debate with a proof of the resurrection from Exodus 3, something of which i have wrestled with and proposed a solution here. Don’s response was [...]

Christian Unity

by Samuel Frost

Listen to our High Priest, Yeshua: “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the [...]

Sam shared a link to our recent podcast on a hyperpreterist facebook page, and here is one of the replies: I listen to the pod cast,i wonder if Sam or Jason has created a anti 101 times statement list,where you refute ANY of the 101 times statements,and prove beyond a shadow of a doubt ANY of [...]

The Outcome When Scripture is Relavitized!

by Paul Gates

Pluralism” as defined by Merriam-Webster’s means, “a theory that there are more than one or more than two kinds of ultimate reality”. D. A. Carson in his award winning book “The Gagging of God” points out the impact of “pluralism” when it comes to the interpretation of Scripture. Commenting on the conclusions of a “pluralist” when it comes to interpreting text Dr. Carson explains, “Culler intend
