Thread: Preterist Books

What are some good books to read that explain the preterist eschatological viewpoint? I've read some of DeMar's Last Days Madness, and a friend of mine told me about a good book he read entitled I Want to Be Left Behind, I was just wondering if there were any other good books to read to study that viewpoint?

Here two links to two lists of orthodox books:

Back to the Future: A Study in the Book of Revelation

By Ralph E. Bass, Jr.

For starters, I would head over to freebooks.com and check out the works of David Chilton and Ken Gentry. Some suggest that Chilton was apostate late in life, becoming an hyper-preterist, but as Gary North said, "I bought orthodoxy." Chilton's works are an excellent introduction to the issues and you get a pretty good treatment of Mt. 24. Gentry also provides some postmillennial books for you with a preterist hermeneutic.

These are free and you can easily look up the passages to see if they address specific verses you may have questions about.

Check out J. Stuart Russell's The Parousia.

It was written in the 19th century and is on the hyper side but is a real good book for understanding preterism.
