Editing Preterism (section)

===Full preterism===<!-- This section is linked from [[Second Coming]] -->
Full preterism differs from partial preterism in that full preterists believe that the destruction of Jerusalem fulfilled ''all'' eschatological or "end times" events, including the [[resurrection of the dead]] and Jesus's [[Second Coming]], or ''Parousia'', and the [[Final Judgment]].<ref>{{Citation |last1=Frost |first1=Samuel |first2=David |last2=Green |first3=Ed |last3=Hassertt |first4=Michael |last4=Sullivan |title=House Divided: Bridging the Gap in Reformed Eschatology.

Other names of full preterism include:
* ''preterism'' (because the term itself means "past")
* ''consistent preterism''
* ''true preterism''
* ''hyper-preterism'' (a pejorative term used by opponents of preterists)
* ''[[pantelism]]''. (The term "pantelism" comes from two Greek roots: παν (''pan''), "everything", and τελ- (''tel-''), referring to completion).
* ''Covenant Eschatology''
* ''Fulfilled Eschatology''<ref>{{Citation |title=Fulfilled Eschatology |first=Tim |last=Liwanag |publisher=CreateSpace |date=May 2015|isbn=978-1512063110 }}.</ref>

Full preterists argue that a literal reading of Matthew 16:28 (where Jesus tells the disciples that some of them will not taste death until they see him coming in his kingdom)<ref>{{Citation |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=E53TGSIxgyoC&q=partial%20preterism&pg=PA316 |title=5-Minute Apologetics for Today |page=316 |first=Ron |last=Rhodes |publisher=Harvest House |date=March 2010|isbn=9780736937580 }}.</ref> places the second coming in the first century. This precludes a physical second coming of Christ. Instead, the second coming is symbolic of a "judgment" against Jerusalem, said to have taken place with the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem in AD 70.<ref>{{Citation |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Ux-X_FFK5i0C&q=partial%20preterism&pg=PA115 |title=End Time Delusions: The Rapture, the Antichrist, Israel, and the End of the World |page=115 |first=Steve |last=Wohlberg |publisher=Destiny Image |year=2005|isbn=9780768429602 }}.</ref> For this reason, those who oppose the notion also call full preterism "the AD 70 doctrine", since the whole eschatology is hinged on this one event.<ref>{{Citation |publisher=KC COFC |title=AD 70 |type=lecture manuscript |number=39th |year=2000 |last=Clarke |url=http://www.kc-cofc.org/39th/Lectures/2000%20Manuscripts/Clarke%20-%20AD%2070.PDF |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030131050658/http://kc-cofc.org/39th/Lectures/2000%20Manuscripts/Clarke%20-%20AD%2070.PDF |url-status=dead |archive-date=January 31, 2003 }}.</ref> [[R.

In recent years full preterism has divided into sub-groups. An important offshoot that differs markedly from the theology of Max King is the Individual Body View (IBV) of full preterism. The term refers to a belief in a rapture of individuals that occurred in AD 66 (or AD 70), an event that first involved an experiential change into spiritual bodies. This is counter to the Max King variant of full preterism, the Corporate Body View (CBV), which Edward E. Stevens, debating against that view, defines as "a spiritual-only change of status for a collective body, and that it had absolutely nothing to do with the resurrection of individual disembodied souls out of Hades to receive their new immortal bodies and go to heaven where their fellowship with God was eternally restored."<ref>First Negative of the "Preston-Stevens Debate on the Rapture</ref>
