You are again accusing me of claiming to be superior to other Christians after you just said you weren't.

Preterist, if that's what you see from my posts, then you either just don't get it or you are trying to deflect and throw things back on me. Sorry, I don't play that game.
My first post in this thread was directed at Thrillobyte. You assumed I was the typical dispensationalist and pre-tribber whom you could challenge. You found out you were wrong on both counts. Your challenge to me had NOTHING to do with my first post, yet I answered you as gracefully as I could and tried to explain how my views of prophecy aren't easily pigeonholed. As far as proper Bible study, I think I'll let people choose for themselves the proper approach rather than make them feel obligated to do it your way.
Your criticism of my approach to proper Bible study is a thinly veiled attempt to justify preterism. Basically, you're saying that if people would just study the Bible correctly, they would see that preterism is correct. That's the typical speech from anyone who has an agenda to push. Sorry, many people who do proper study disagree with you.
If I wanted to discuss preterism, I would have chosen to direct my comments to one of your posts justifying your beliefs. Since you either can't see what I'm saying or choose not to, my part of this conversation is over.
