1. I really liked the way you handled the seriousness of hyperpreterism here and how it needs to be addressed. Eschatological heresy can destroy people and churches. There is a similar case of this in China with the Eastern Lightning cult. They believe that Matthew 24:27 refers Jesus coming back as a woman in China and spreading their gospel message. They take the phrase, “lightning flashes from the east to the west” to mean that the Messiah will come from China (the East) and go to the West. It’s absolutely ridiculous, of course, but the implications of this cult has done absolutely horrifying things over there. Eastern Lightning usually sends their cult members in as spies pretending to be Christians into orthodox churches to pick people out of them and this often resorts to kidnapping, brainwashing and torturing. I’m glad that hyperpreterists have not gotten to the point that Eastern Lightning has, but I am now seriously concerned since they are trying to buddy up to orthodox preterists like Gary DeMar in order to spread their heresy.

2. About Nero and technology. I would also like to point out that Nero highly enjoyed the theater as well. If I’m not mistaken, he was known for sneaking to the theater to watch plays.

Mr. DeMar really does himself and his ministry a diservice by not clearly and emphatically delineating the heretics from the orthodox. Here’s praying he does as such sooner rather than later.

God bless,
