Debate – Noe-Ice (Indy 1999) (1 DVD)
Debate between Preterist John Noe and Futurist Tommy Ice held in Indianapolis on Nov. 11, 1999. Ninety minutes of interaction. Both men stuck with their outlines and presented a good summary of their own view and why they believe the other is mistaken. Excellent exchange of information. This is the video DVD of this debate. The audio MP3 tracks are also available separately if you would prefer just to listen to it and not watch it. Reg Price $9.99
Seminar – Carlsbad NM (6 DVDs)
Seminar held in 2007 in Carlsbad, NM. Speakers: Kurt Simmons, Don Preston, Todd Dennis, John Noe, Ed Stevens. Kurt Simmons provided some great historical information showing the worldwide impact of the AD 70 eschaton, proving that it was not just a “local” Judean catastrophe, but instead involved the whole Roman world of the first century. His second lesson exposed the logical fallacies of some preterists who have recently moved into a form of Universalism. Don Preston did a masterful job of proving the fulfillment of 2 Peter 3 in AD 70, and exposing one of the most devastating inconsistencies of Dispensational Premillennialism. Todd Dennis’ presentation on the implications of the Dead Sea Scrolls for Preterism was superb! It was material I have not seen any preterist ever deal with. That one lesson is worth the price of the whole set! Ed Stevens presented two lessons, the first documenting from Josephus and other historians the historical fulfillment of every event predicted in Matthew 24, and a second lesson dealing with the last twelve critical years leading up to the destruction of Jerusalem (AD 58-70) . Reg Price $39.95
Seminar – Debate – Bristol CT (6 DVDs)
Debate and Seminar held in Bristol, CT on Aug. 4-5, 2006. Debate on the resurrection between Sam Frost (preterist) and Kevin Hartley (futurist). Seminar speakers were: Sam Frost, Ed Stevens, Mike Grace, Erick Blore, and Jason Bradfield.

This is the video DVD version of it. Reg Price $39.95
Seminar – Garrettsville 2008 (4 DVDs)
Seminar held in Garrettsville, Ohio in 2008 by Ed Stevens. The Theme was Introduction to Fulfilled Prophecy. The first lesson introduced the Fulfilled Prophecy view by showing how the Atheists try to use the TIME statements to prove that Jesus was a false prophet, but how Jesus’ predictions were actually fulfilled in AD 70. The second lesson on the Heavens and Earth dealt with biblical cosmology, which is the relationship between the SEEN and UNSEEN realms. If you ever wondered what that language about the Heavens, Earth, and Under the Earth was talking about, this is the lesson for you. The third lesson showed how to interpret prophetic language (figurative versus literal). The fourth lesson uses the writings of Eusebius, Tacitus, Josephus, Yosippon and other ancient historical sources to document the fulfillment of all the events predicted in Matthew 24. The lesson outline with the full text of all that documentation printed out is included on the same CD with the MP3 tracks. In addition to the four great lessons, there were three lengthy Question and Answer Sessions in which the audience drilled Stevens with tough questions about the parousia, resurrection, rapture and judgment, the status of Satan after AD 70, the 40-year millennium idea, how we know that the book of Revelation was written before AD 70, and who the Elect are and what it means when it says that ALL the elect were saved at AD 70. Some folks considered the Q and A sessions to be the most helpful part of the seminar. You will hear things here that you are not hearing anywhere else in the Preterist movement. You will finally understand the parousia, resurrection, rapture, and judgment events as they were fulfilled in the first century. We recommend the DVD set because all seven sessions constantly make visual reference to the flip charts. To get the most out of these presentations, you really need to see those charts on the screen. Reg Price $24.95
Seminar – Garrettsville 2009 (4 DVDs)
Seminar held in Garrettsville, OH. Speakers: Ed Stevens, Joe Propri, and Parker Voll. Joe Propri did a marvelous job of explaining how to interpret figurative language. If the preterist view is new to you, then you will want to hear this lesson. Stevens shared an enhanced version of his Apostolic Canonization paper that was originally presented at the Evangelical Theological Society in Philadelphia. Apostolic Canonization is the very conservative idea that all 27 books of our New Testament were written, collected, and certified as being Scripture by the apostles before they passed from the earthly scene at AD 70. All Preterists need to hear this lesson. Then Voll presented a sneak peek at some of the material he is writing for our multi-authored response to Mathison. He showed how some of the partial preterist explanations of the time statements simply do not square with Scripture. Stevens next showed the continuing significance of the Church, Baptism, and the Lord’s Supper after AD 70. The bulk of his lesson was focused on the Lord’s Supper, showing that the statement by Paul in 1 Cor 11:26 about the supper being observed “until he comes” was NOT indicating that the supper would cease at AD 70, but rather that it would continue to be observed in a “new way” with them in his presence at his table in his kingdom after the AD 70 Parousia. Stevens compared 1 Cor 11 to the three synoptic accounts of the institution of the Supper to show how the three gospel accounts help us interpret Paul’s words in 1 Cor 11. This is a fascinating study that every preterist will want to see. The third lesson by Stevens on the Preterist worldview looked at Ezekiel 47 and showed how it depicts the eternal growth of the Kingdom, and its ongoing implications for all nations and cultures on the planet. Plus, there were two question and answer sessions where the three speakers interacted with some very interesting questions submitted by the audience. This is good conservative Biblical teaching that you will not get from most other preterist teachers out there. There is something here for both beginners and advanced students of Bible Prophecy. We recommend the DVD set so that you can see the charts and lesson outlines that were projected on the overhead screen. To get the most out of these presentations, you really need to see those charts on the screen. Reg Price $24.95
Seminar – Garrettsville 2010 (3 DVDs)
Seminar in Garrettsville, OH. Speaker: Ed Stevens. The Theme of the seminar was What About The Rapture? The first lesson surveyed the dozens of “expectation statements” in the New Testament which tell us what the first century saints expected to see, hear, and experience at the Parousia. The second lesson covered the Old Testament background of the rapture. Next was an explanation of Biblical Cosmology (the Unseen realm and how it interacts with the Seen realm) and how the Parousia, Resurrection, Rapture and Judgment occurred in relation to both realms. Then we discussed the sequencing of the rapture, showing when it occurred in relation to the Tribulation and the Wrath outpouring. The final lesson dealt with “Christianity After the Rapture,” showing how the church was restarted from the gospel seed that the Apostles had planted before they left the earth. In addition to the five presentations, there were two Question and Answer Sessions which dealt with such issues as who was raised in Matt. 27:52f, the judgment mentioned in Matt. 16:27, when was the resurrection of the unjust, has hell been done away with, various objections related to the rapture, and the status of Satan after AD 70. You will hear things here that you are not hearing anywhere else in the Preterist movement. You will finally understand what Cosmology is and how it relates to the rapture. We recommend the video DVD set, since a lot of material was displayed on the overhead screen. You will get more out of these presentations when you both listen and watch them on screen. Also included in the set, are the lesson outlines in PDF format, and a couple of free preterist song tracks (“Flow” and “New Jerusalem”) performed by Tracy Mayle, with information about her preterist music ministry. Reg Price $24.95
Seminar – Garrettsville 2011 (3 DVDs)
Seminar held in Garrettsville, OH. Speakers: Ed Stevens and Parker Voll. The Theme of the seminar was “Resurrected, Changed, and Gathered.” This is the first preterist seminar ever devoted exclusively to a study of the Resurrection of the Dead from an Individual Body perspective. If you are like most, you are confused by the Collective Body view, and looking for a better explanation. Here it is! Several individuals like the following have said these presentations were a turning point for them: “this really negates the Collective Body View, and clearly shows how “body” in the resurrection passages refers to individual bodies of believers” [T.C. in NC]. If you are confused about the resurrection, this is what you are looking for. The first lesson showed how “Death Entered the World” through the sin of Adam, and what kind of death he actually died “on that day” that he ate. The second lesson clarified what kind of “Resurrection of the Dead” occurred in AD 70. Then Parker Voll explained what the “Change of the Living” is talking about (1 Cor. 15:51-54; 2 Cor. 5:1-4). The fourth lesson dealt with the “Gathering of the Elect” (rapture) mentioned in Matt. 24:31. And the final lesson discussed the historical problems in the “First Generation After AD 70” which we preterists have failed to satisfactorily explain. In addition to the five presentations, there were two Question and Answer Sessions which dealt with many interesting issues related to Preterism. You will hear things here that you are not hearing anywhere else in the Preterist movement. You will finally understand the resurrection, change of the living, and rapture issues. We recommend this video DVD set, since you will get more out of these presentations when you both listen and watch them on screen. When you buy this DVD album, you get the MP3 CD free. The CD contains the six audio tracks, the five seminar lesson outlines in PDF format (over 80 pages), plus eighteen extra PDF lessons for FREE (220 pages). The PDF lesson outlines alone are worth more than the price. Only available here at IPA. Reg Price $24.95
MP3 Tracks
Apostolic Canonization (7 tracks)
By Ed Stevens. Apostolic Canonization is the idea that the apostles wrote, collected, and authorized (with their canonical binding and loosing authority) all 27 of our New Testament books before the Destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. This set of MP3 tracks contains speeches which Stevens delivered at both regional and national conferences of the Evangelical Theological Society, plus some of his podcasts. Also includes the PDF lesson outlines along with the MP3 audio tracks. Reg Price $6.93
Complete Library of MP3 on DVD
By Ed Stevens and many others.

This also includes all the handouts that go with the Parables and Transition Period series, which are saved as PDF document files and stored on the DVD. Reg Price $118.00
Covenant Eschatology Symposium (24 tracks)
By Max King and others. This is the complete set of 24 MP3 audio tracks from the Jan. 1993 Covenant Eschatology Symposium in Orlando Florida where Max and Tim King met with about a dozen Reformed scholars to discuss preterist eschatology and interact with Max’s big book, The Cross and the Parousia. This was the occasion when those Reformed theologians interacted with Max King’s Collective Body View (CBV) and explained why they can never accept it. Dr. Robert Strimple and Dr. Charles Hill were two of the participants in that symposium, and this was when they first presented their critical papers against full preterism, which were later enhanced and included as two of the chapters in Keith Mathison’s critique book (When Shall These Things Be?). If you are interested in seeing how those Reformed theologians dealt with the Collective Body View (CBV), this would be a good series of studies to hear. Reg Price $23.76
Creation (6 days) & Global Flood (5 tracks)
By Ed Stevens. Preterism certainly challenges traditional views of Bible Prophecy , so it would not be not too surprising to find that some other traditional doctrines could be called into question. The literal 6-day creation and global flood are good examples of some of the other traditions that have been questioned by some preterists. These lessons focus on the Biblical text to show what Genesis actually teaches, and shows that the ideas of a literal 6-day creation and a global flood are perfectly compatible with Preterism, despite what some other preterist teachers (e.g., the Covenant Creationists) are saying. Reg Price $4.95
Debate – Noe-Ice (3 tracks)
By John Noe and Thomas Ice. Debate between Preterist John Noe and Futurist Tommy Ice held in Indianapolis on Nov. 11, 1999. Ninety minutes of interaction on three MP3 tracks.

The topic: “Did Jesus Come in Finality in AD 70?” Four major and four minor presentations, plus audience interaction with the speakers at the end. Preterists challenge the Amillennial futurist position in general, as well as the “New Covenant Theology” position specifically. (8 MP3 tracks on CD) Reg Price 7.92
Debate – Stevens-Hicks (3 tracks)
By Ed Stevens and Olan Hicks. Debate held July 5, 1991 in West Memphis, Arkansas. Ed Stevens affirms the preterist view.

Early Church & Creeds (4 tracks)
By Ed Stevens and others. HOW did the early church miss the fulfillment of eschatology in AD 70? WHO made the mistakes, WHEN and WHY? Does the preterist view conflict with the great ecumenical creeds of the historic church? Could the creeds be mistaken? How do preterists propose to deal with these extremely important and fundamental issues? From three Reformed Preterists: Ken Davies, Walt Hibbard, and Ed Stevens. Reg Price $3.96
Eschatology & Ethics – ETS (1 track)
By Ed Stevens. Presentation on Eschatology and Ethics at the Evangelical Theological Society meeting in 2009. The lesson challenged the unethical date-setting and false predictions that many futurists have engaged in over the past sixty years since Billy Graham and Hal Lindsey popularized the notion that we are the terminal generation. Plus it shows how the Preterist view provides a much more honest and healthy worldview in which to live our lives. The audience was mostly composed of young seminary students who tended to be premillennial and futurist. They asked some very insightful questions at the end. Reg Price $.99
Implications & Worldview (1 track)
By Ed Stevens. Presentation given at the Nile Christian Church in Nile, New York on October 24, 1999, during the time when much attention was being focused on the impending end of the second millennium.

Title of this lesson was: “Reigning with Christ Beyond Y2K.” Reg Price .99
Kingdom Parables & AD 70 (1 track)
By Ed Stevens. Lecture delivered at the 1989 Covenant Eschatology Seminar in Warren, Ohio. Discusses some of the more obvious parables of Jesus which warned about the soon-coming destruction of Jerusalem in that generation, and proves that Christ’s return was inseparably connected with the downfall of the nation at AD 70 (and therefore cannot be still future). Reg Price $.99
Matthew 24 Cannot Be Divided (1 track)
By Ed Stevens. Lecture delivered at the 1989 Covenant Eschatology Seminar in Warren, Ohio. Presents the chart in the book, What Happened in AD 70?, which proves exegetically that Matthew 24 is all one united narrative about the Destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, and cannot be divided into two sections with one section still future in fulfillment. Reg Price $.99
Parables of Tares & Ten Virgins (3 tracks)
By Ed Stevens. The two best lessons from the Eschatological Parables series. Examines the first century agricultural background and wedding customs to fully explain these two parables!

Reg Price $2.97
Passing of Heaven & Earth (1 track)
By David Chilton. Two lessons presented at a 1997 full preterist seminar in Oklahoma City shortly after Chilton became a Full Preterist. The two lessons were combined into one MP3 track. The associated PDF has the transcript of both lessons. Uses John Owens to prove that 2 Peter 3 is talking about the fiery end of Judaism in AD 70 instead of the end of planet earth. This was the speech where he made the now famous statement: ‚”Here I am as a Full Preterist.‚” He explains Matt 5:17-20 about the passing away of the old heavens and earth, and shows that it was referring to the soon-coming end of the old covenantal Jewish world and the arrival of the new covenantal world in Christ in that first century generation. Perhaps the most valuable part of it is his critique of Theonomy as it was formulated by Greg Bahnsen and William Einwechter. Chilton clearly shows how they misinterpreted both Matt 5:17-20 and Heb 8:13 in their attempt to bind the ‚”jots and tittles‚” (every bit) of the Law upon us today. Chilton shows that the old heavens and earth passed away in AD 70, so that the jots and tittles of the Law are no longer bound on us after AD 70. You will want to use Chilton’s arguments the next time you talk to a Theonomist. (1 track). Reg Price $.99

Preterism & Dominion (4 tracks)
By David Chilton. Lectures delivered in Dallas just months before Chilton moved the rest of the way into a consistent Preterist view.

Rapture Radio Studies (4 tracks)
On his radio show, Arthur Melanson and Ed Stevens discuss the idea of a literal “snatching away” of all true Christians at the time of the Second Coming in AD 66. Five preterist scholars a century ago (J.S. Russell, Milton S. Terry, Richard Weymouth, William S. Urmy, and Ernest Hampden-Cook) took a similar view. Melanson and Stevens address some of the common objections to the Literal Rapture view. This is the “next wave” in Preterism! Ian Harding, Arthur Melanson, Michael Alan Nichols, Parker Voll, Albert Pigeon, and many others join with Stevens in teaching this view. Reg Price $4.95
Response to Sproul’s Critique (1 track)
By John Noe. A lecture that John Noe presented at the Evangelical Theological Society one year, in response to R. C. Sproul’s criticism of the Preterist view in his book, The Last Days According to Jesus. Reg Price $.99
Resurrection in John 5, 6, & 11 (4 tracks)
By Ed Stevens. Four lessons on the resurrection as taught by Jesus in the Gospel of John (chs. 5, 6, and 11) presented by Ed Stevens to a preterist study group in Rochester NY. Explains the meaning of the phrases, eternal life and live forever, showing that they mean: life pertaining to the age to come, and living until the arrival of the age to come. This correct definition of the Greek word AION significantly enhances our understanding of these resurrection texts here in the gospel of John, from an Individual Body View (IBV) and Literal Rapture perspective. Reg Price $3.96
Resurrection Studies (8 tracks)
By Ed Stevens. Packed full of lessons from five different seminars (Texas, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Jersey, and Omaha). Good overview of the Individual Body View (IBV) of the resurrection. In contrast to Max King’s Collective Body View, these lessons focus on the individual implications of the resurrection event at the Parousia. Draws from Murray Harris’ book, From Grave To Glory, to explain the nature of our new immortal bodies that we saints get when we die and go to heaven. Reg Price $7.92
Rev. 20 & Millennium (1 track)
By Don Preston. These are some of the best lectures you will find anywhere proving that the “millennium” mentioned in Revelation 20 is the 40-year generation between AD 30 and AD 70. Preston focuses all of his logic, wit, historical, grammatical, and contextual skills on this question in a way that is extremely powerful and persuasive. If you want convincing proof that the millennium was finished by the time Jerusalem fell in AD 70, this is it. Reg Price $.99

Seminar – Carlsbad NM (13 tracks)
Seminar held in Carlsbad, NM in 2007 – Speakers: Kurt Simmons, Don Preston, Todd Dennis, John Noe, Ed Stevens. Kurt Simmons provided some great historical information showing the worldwide impact of the AD 70 eschaton, proving that it was not just a “local” Judean catastrophe, but instead involved the whole Roman world of the first century. His second lesson exposed the logical fallacies of some preterists who have recently moved into a form of Universalism. Don Preston did a masterful job of proving the fulfillment of 2 Peter 3 in AD 70, and exposing one of the most devastating inconsistencies of Dispensational Premillennialism. Todd Dennis’ presentation on the implications of the Dead Sea Scrolls for Preterism was superb! It was material I have not seen any preterist ever deal with. That one lesson is worth the price of the whole set! Ed Stevens presented two lessons, the first documenting from Josephus and other historians the historical fulfillment of every event predicted in Matthew 24, and a second lesson dealing with the last twelve critical years leading up to the destruction of Jerusalem (AD 58-70).

In addition to the five presentations, there were two Question and Answer Sessions which dealt with many interesting issues related to Preterism. You will hear things here that you are not hearing anywhere else in the Preterist movement. You will finally understand the resurrection, change of the living, and rapture issues. Available in both video and audio formats. This CD contains the six audio tracks, the five seminar lesson outlines in PDF format (over 80 pages), plus eighteen extra PDF lessons for FREE (220 pages). The PDF lesson outlines alone are worth more than the price. Only available here at IPA. Reg Price $9.95

Books
AD 70: A Shadow of the Real End?
By Don Preston. Subtitled: Was the End of the Age in AD 70 a Type of the End of the World? Amillennialists and Postmillennialists are inconsistent in their admission that there was some kind of coming and resurrection in AD 70. They try to avoid the inconsistency by claiming that AD 70 was merely a type or foreshadowing of another yet future “real” end of the supposedly “unending” Christian age and “eternal Kingdom.” Preston masterfully exposes their error and leaves them no excuse for remaining futurist. This is one of Preston’s best books. You need this in your arsenal of apologetic weapons against futurism. Trade Paper 201 pp pb. Reg Price $17.95

Can God Tell Time?
By Don Preston. The Time of Fulfillment is one of the two most important issues in the study of Last Things. The Nature of Fulfillment is the other.

Come Out Of Her My People
By J. E. Leonard. A commentary on the book of Revelation from a covenantal preterist perspective. Just as Israel was called out of Egypt to form a new nation just before Egypt was destroyed, so was the new covenant nation of true Israel called out of the old covenant-breaking nation just before its destruction in AD 70. A unique covenantal and preterist approach to Revelation. 208 pp pb. Reg Price $11.95
Corinthian Catastrophe, The
By George Gardiner. Shows the charismatic gifts were signs to Israel that she was about to collapse, as well as miraculous provision to help the church through its most vulnerable period.

Early Church and the End of the World, The
By Gary DeMar and Frank Gumerlock. Tommy Ice claims on pp. 37-39 of his book, The End Times Controversy, “that there is not one shred of evidence that anyone in the first century understood … that Jesus returned in the first century.” DeMar and Gumerlock have done all preterists a huge favor by producing numerous “shreds of evidence” from early Christian writers. Tommy Ice is “eating crow” now. 180 pp hb. Reg Price $21.95
Elements Shall Melt With Fervent Heat, The
By Don Preston. New Enhanced Version of Preston’s previous book on 2 Pet. 3. Powerful new argumentation. Shows that 2nd Peter 3 deals with the AD 70 destruction of Jerusalem, rather than a future cataclysmic end of the universe; and that the New Heaven and Earth is the unshakable spiritual Kingdom of Christ that is now here.

Eusebius’ Ecclesiastical History
Trans. by C. F. Cruse. Best historical information about people and events shaping the Church in the first three centuries. Many great statements supporting the Preterist view.

Expectations Demand a First Century Rapture
By Ed Stevens. First book in this generation teaching a literal rapture of all true Christians at the time of the Parousia in AD 70. Five scholars a hundred years ago took a similar view (Milton Terry, J. S. Russell, Weymouth, Urmy, and Hampden-Cook). This book goes further than all of them combined. Answers all the major objections, plus grammatical analysis of the rapture text (1 Th. 4:13ff). Ian Harding, Arthur Melanson, Mike Nichols, Parker Voll, and many other contemporary preterist leaders join with Stevens in affirming a first century rapture. 158 pp pb. Reg Price $11.95

First Corinthians Fulfilled
By Jessie Mills. First verse-by-verse commentary on the whole book of First Corinthians written from a consistent Preterist (past fulfillment) perspective.

Mills takes an “individual body” (IBV) approach to the resurrection issue, very similar to the views of Ed Stevens, Ian Harding, Arthur Melanson, and Mike Nichols. 238 pp pb. Reg Price $11.95
Forcing God’s Hand
By Grace Halsell.

Have Heaven and Earth Passed?
By Don Preston. Study of Matt. 5:17-18. Shows that it is inconsistent to believe that the OT Law is no longer binding if the old “Heaven and Earth” have not passed away. Proves that the Old Heaven and Earth was the Old Covenant Law, and that the New Heaven and Earth is the Kingdom of Christ which is here now. The Law was fulfilled completely by the time Jerusalem fell in 70 AD. 36 pp pb. Reg Price $4.95
He Came As A Thief
By Don Preston. Premils say that AD 70 could not have been the Second Coming because His return was supposed to be as a thief in the night (with no signs to indicate it was near). Since there were signs preceding the destruction of Jerusalem, they reason that AD 70 therefore could not be the Second Coming. Preston demolishes this idea by showing that the Parousia was only like a thief in the night to the unfaithful and unwatchful Jews, not to the faithful Christians who were watching for the signs. 32 pp pb. Reg Price $2.95
Hell On Trial
By Robert A. Peterson. One of the best three books I have found on the subject of Eternal Conscious Punishment (Hell). Thorough examination of the subject through the Old and New Testaments, as well as Church History. Clearly refutes the error of Universalism and Annihilationism. Great companion book to Gerstner’s more topical study. From a conservative Presbyterian seminary professor who has engaged in debate on the issue with leading annihilationists. 258 pp pb. Reg Price $16.95

In Flaming Fire
By Don Preston. Little known time text — 2 Thess. 1:7-8! Paul promised that Christ would come “in flaming fire” to crush their persecutors and relieve those saints in Thessalonica who were being persecuted. Did that relief ever come in their lifetime (as Paul promised)? If it did, then Christ’s return has occurred! 30 pp pb. Reg Price $5.95
Incredible Scofield and His Book, The
By Joe Canfield. Most Bible students have heard of the Scofield Ref. Bible, and may even own one. But few have read anything about Scofield. This well-researched and documented book reveals his questionable character. Loraine Boettner says this refutation of Scofield is so powerful that “if dispensationalists would read it carefully, perhaps half of them would turn from that system.” 314 pp pb. Reg Price $23.95
Into All The World
By Don Preston. One of the key signs of the nearness of Christ’s coming mentioned in Matthew 24 is the preaching of the gospel “into all the world.” This book presents the NT evidence to show that the Great Commission was indeed accomplished before Jerusalem was destroyed in AD 70. Another logically powerful production from the persuasive pen of Preston! 139 pp pb. Reg Price $12.95
Israel 1948 – Countdown to Nowhere
By Don Preston. The author applies his keen logic to show that the return of the Jews to the land of Israel in 1948 was not the fulfillment of end-time prophecy. Those prophecies were fulfilled in the establishment of the “better things” in the Church, and in the destruction of the physical temple system at AD 70. 66 pp pb. Reg Price $6.95
Israel and the Nations
By F. F. Bruce. One of the finest surveys of Biblical history ever written, especially for intertestamental and first century background study.

Essential for a clear grasp of first century history, especially regarding AD 70. Shows the chronological flow of events leading up to and during the war with Rome. Makes the historical context behind the New Testament come alive. 416 pp hb. Reg Price $27.95
Last Days According to Jesus, The
By R. C. Sproul, Sr. This is Sproul’s defense of his partial preterist position. He has long recommended J.S. Russell’s book, “The Parousia.” Here he identifies the major issues between full preterists and partial preterists. His major objection to full preterism is a past resurrection. This is one of the most significant books on preterist eschatology. It has stimulated much discussion and rethinking. 253 pp, pb. Reg Price $19.95
Last Days Identified, The
By Don Preston. The blockbuster success of the “Left Behind” books and videos have deepened the fear in millions of Christians that we today are living in the Last Days. Preston shows clearly from the Bible that the Last Days already ended at AD 70 when Jerusalem was destroyed. We no longer dread the future, but embrace it with optimism. This book is liberating and encouraging for those who have been lost in the fearful forest of futurism! 138 pp pb. Reg Price $11.95
Last Days Madness
By Gary DeMar. The modern church is obsessed with end-time prophecy. Much disillusionment, hysteria, and defection from the faith has resulted from a failure to grasp the original intent. DeMar shows how the pre-trib rapture worldview paralyzes Christianity and destroys its productive influence in the world. He shows how the preterist view offers a much more positive, optimistic and long-term worldview. 450 pp pb. Reg Price $19.95
Leaving the Rapture Behind
By Don Preston. The author shows how Tim LaHaye’s Pre-Trib “Left Behind” view is totally wrong on its timing of the rapture. Even full preterist “literal rapture” advocates will find much to agree with here, as well as a few things to differ with. But the debate is healthy for the cause of truth. All preterists can agree that whatever the rapture was, it occurred in connection with the first century Parousia, so it needs to be left behind at AD 70. 26 pp pb. Reg Price $4.95
Matthew 24 Fulfilled
By John Bray. Written by a Southern Baptist evangelist after many years of eschatological study at some of the world’s best theological libraries.

Easy-to-read style, with valuable quotes from many different preterist writers of the past. 349 pp pb. Reg Price $24.95
Messiah’s Return, The
By Timothy James. Shows how futurist views of eschatology are inconsistent and undermine the integrity of Scripture. Presents the clear teaching of the NT that Christ’s return was imminent in the first century. Takes a careful look at the eschatology of Luke to repudiate the various liberal attempts to side-step the TIME statements. Shows why the Delay, non-occurrence, and double-fulfillment ideas of the futurists simply do not work. 71 pp pb. Reg Price $4.95
Parousia, The (second edition)
By J. Stuart Russell. Classic defense of the Preterist view. Goes through the whole New Testament examining every text which talks about the Second Coming (Parousia) and explaining how they were all fulfilled in the first century in connection with Christ’s coming in judgment upon the Jewish nation in AD 70.

Questions about the Afterlife

Redating the New Testament
By John A. T. Robinson. An unusually conservative attempt to prove that every NT book was written before AD 70, from a radical liberal Anglican scholar. He dates all the NT books as pre-70 because, “…the single most datable and climactic event of the period ‚Äì the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 ‚Äì is never once mentioned [in the NT] as a past fact.” An extremely helpful and thought-provoking study of the early date of our NT canon. His methodology for redating the NT books is being used by Ed Stevens in his Masters Thesis to redate the Apostolic Father writings before AD 70. Stevens talks about this on some of his podcasts. 369 pp pb. Reg Price $34.95
Results of Fulfilled Prophecy

Seventy Weeks Are Determined for the Resurrection
By Don Preston. Uses Daniel’s prophecy of Seventy Weeks (Dan. 9:24-27) to prove the TIME of the Resurrection was at the end of the Seventy Weeks (AD 70).

Taken To Heaven in AD 70
By Ian Harding. Just as Russell’s book (The Parousia) surveys all the NT “second coming” texts to establish the AD 70 TIMING of the Parousia, Harding’s book covers all the NT texts which mention what the first century saints EXPECTED to experience at the AD 70 parousia. Destined to become a classic defense of the first century rapture. A “must read” for every preterist. 335 pp pb. Reg Price $14.95
Time Is At Hand, The
By Jay Adams. Defends a partial preterist view of eschatology against premillennialism. Includes studies of both Revelation 20 (the proof text of the Premils), and Matthew 24 (with parallels). Deals especially with the imminency TIME texts in the book of Revelation to show how they demand an early date of writing and a first century application. For a book written over 30 years ago, it contains an amazing amount of Preterist apologetic for the book of Revelation. 138 pp pb. Reg Price $13.95

How Death Entered the World (MP3 download)
First speech by Ed Stevens at the seminar held in Garrettsville, Ohio in 2011. Speakers: Ed Stevens and Parker Voll. The Theme of the seminar was: Resurrected, Changed, and Gathered. This is the first preterist seminar ever devoted exclusively to a study of the Resurrection of the Dead from an Individual Body perspective. If you are like most, you are confused by the Collective Body view, and looking for a better explanation. Here it is! Several individuals like the following have said these presentations were a turning point for them: “this really negates the Collective Body View, and clearly shows how “body” in the resurrection passages refers to individual bodies of believers” [T.C. in NC]. If you are confused about the resurrection, this is what you are looking for. The first lesson showed how “Death Entered the World” through the sin of Adam, and what kind of death he actually died “on that day” that he ate. The second lesson clarified what kind of “Resurrection of the Dead” occurred in AD 70. Then Parker Voll explained what the “Change of the Living” is talking about (1 Cor. 15:51-54; 2 Cor. 5:1-4). The fourth lesson dealt with the “Gathering of the Elect” (rapture) mentioned in Matt. 24:31. And the final lesson discussed the historical problems in the “First Generation After AD 70” which we preterists have failed to satisfactorily explain. In addition to the five presentations, there were two Question and Answer Sessions which dealt with many interesting issues related to Preterism. You will hear things here that you are not hearing anywhere else in the Preterist movement. You will finally understand the resurrection, change of the living, and rapture issues. Available in both video and audio formats. There is a lesson outline in PDF format available for download with this Audio MP3 track. Be sure to ask for it after you download the audio file.
