What about Preterism, compared to 'partial' preterism - what I believe?


I don't think there is an official definition for me, but
it entails the freedom to not have to stick to someone else's 
Traditional 'interpretation', [that have no foundation really, except
the majority of 'christianity' teaches them].

Matthew 24 is a great example, that is why there is so much 'discussion'
on how wrong some of us are in our 'beliefs'. People are afraid to follow
the scripture to the degree of 'division' amongst the brethren. I believe, for
example, that the disciples asked 'clearly', in my opinion, 3 questions, of
which the Lord went into details of each answer. But there prevails here
the tradition that the whole situation of the 'answer' only answers one subject.
Either it is talking about the 70 AD destruction and judgement of God, or it
is talking about the 'end days'. I believe it talks about both! 

I however have learned years ago to follow how the Lord leads, and it has
caused division, and that division has helped me to grow, and not be strung
along some traditional 'muddy path', that is as clear as that 'muddy path', in
its teachings.

Partial preterism is not the belief of Preterism at all. It takes from Preterism
the information and view that is correct. And leaves out the parts that are
not correct. Hence 'partial' preterism.

I could call it 'biblicism', but everyone thinks that is what they teach.

* edited to add this -

 I do not follow any teaching of man about partial preterism. I came up with my own beliefs without the knowledge of the 'Partial Preterism' taught and spoken about on the internet, and I do not prescribe to what they call 'Partial Preterism'. What I believe is what I call partial preterism.
