The absurdity and heresy of Preterism

The Old Testament saints rose on the day Christ rose and they are in heaven now. This is not a future event. The rest of us will be changed as soon is we leave this body.

I think your guilty conscience is accusing you. I'm not.

I think you're reading comprehension skills are failing you. Because what I posted and what other people posted makes it perfectly clear that the ENIRE BODY is raised in an instant and altogether.

I really don't know how else I can help you because it's so crystal-clear that even a child can understand it. Yet you have continually denied these imperturbable facts.

I tend to agree with your assertion. Converting during the great tribulation a.k.a. tribulation saints is an almost certain death sentence.

Mat 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,


Mat 27:53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

We’re these people in Christ?
We’re they resurrected from the dead?

Yep. Part of the firstfruits (Jesus first of course). Definitely not every single Saint that's for sure.

Okay, if you want to be silly, I'm done with you. You don't get to toss out groundless insults and then shi(f)t blame onto me for it.

Why in the world would you believe that only some of the saints were raised and the rest were left? Were these super saints or God's favorites or was it that they were so close to Jesus' grave that some of Jesus' resurrection power spilled over on them?

My friend you're full of questions. I applaud you for that. But you must consider the entire council of God when making assertions. The correct application of Scripture indicates that these Saints are certainly and without doubt part of the firstfruits. And the number of them probably isn't that great, But we have no way of knowing exactly how many there were.

"Rose"?
Correction "will rise".

Furthermore you may have failed to notice that verse 16 indicates that all, the sum total, of every Christian in the history of the world, shall altogether be raised..... together...as ONE BODY.

1 Corinthians chapter 15:52 once again makes this phenomenon perfectly clear. ALL of the Christians who have fallen asleep will be raised altogether and instantaneously.

"in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed."

Your proposal that Christians are raised someway, somehow, single file into their eternal new glorious bodies is completely bogus.

@cv5

Did you notice that at the time when MANY but not all the saints were raised in Daniel is the exact same time as Jacobs trouble?

Shore do it is just like...
Mat 27:52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

Seems to me you are dealing more with a Hebraism.

@cv5

Do you know why the Bible couldn’t say that all the Old Testament saints were raised when Jesus was raised? It is because Jesus had already raised Lazarus and a couple of other Old Testament saints before Jesus died.

They weren't raised to glorified bodies and they subsequently died.
