You switched to some from of Preterism and it all made sense?
I'm not putting "what I switched to" under any dogmatic label as this always ends being co-opted somehow... again you didn't highlight any point of dispute fren
Okay, then… I’ll just put you under the “unlabeled” label. 😆
Maybe I’ll give you what you’re asking for a little later, when I get enough time needed to dive in with ya.
Pfft kek I'll rock that label :p looking forward to it!
In the meantime, since you won’t give me an indication what eschatological camp you landed in, I’ll have to ask some clarifying questions to get a better feel for where you’re coming from;
How do you explain the ongoing existence of evil and suffering if all biblical prophecies were fulfilled in the past?
Why do we still see the growth of Christianity if all biblical prophecies, including about the Kingdom of God, were fulfilled in the first century?
How do you interpret passages that seem to describe a future judgment and resurrection of the dead?
Why has the expectation of Christ’s return persisted throughout history if all prophecy was fulfilled in the past?
How do you explain the unrealized events described in Revelation, such as the defeat of evil and the establishment of a new heaven and earth?
Do you think this view diminishes the hope and urgency of the Christian message regarding Christ’s return and the final redemption of creation?
Just to give you a heads up: After 2000 years of church history, it’s highly unlikely you’ve landed in some nuanced, “new” eschatological framework.
[EDIT]
It’s important I clarify that no single end-times framework can perfectly accommodate every passage about the end times. However, some frameworks align more accurately with the overall biblical narrative than others.
