I read several of Gentry's books and I think they make a lot sense. Now I am listening to lectures and reading Riddlebarger on prophecy and Revelation. (His book "Amillinnialism" and "Man of Sin") It seems to me that he spiritualizes things too much. He says that preterism is a response to the Dispensational sense to push everything ahead to the future and so they pull it all back to the past. But I think he (since he is a former Dispensational), spirtualizes things because of his past history of taking prophecy so literal.
Some of what he says makes sense but he seems to not think that any of the writing of the NT refers to things that happened in the first century.
Any thoughts? Am I off base or do others see this?
