It's kind of funny...But from listening to a lot of Steve's lectures, I've concluded that he is the fullest partial preterist that I have ever known. I even brought this up at the last home fellowship that he was at down here in SoCal. It made him visibly defensive. Very mildly...but nonetheless. He...

Once again Pai...Can you show me where exactly in the Hebrew prophets that they speak of a second sacking of Jerusalem in 70AD?

PMike, many of us do not see the events of 70 A.D. as a fulfillment of the end-time scriptures.
