The lesson on January 15, 2017 was part 2 of “The U, V and W of Right Division”.  This lesson looks at the beliefs of Preterism in relation to AD 70 and the nation of Israel. Preterism holds that Ancient Israel finds its continuation or fulfillment in the Christian church at the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70.  It is so important that you keep scripture in its proper context.  That is why we follow right division to understand what doctrine being taught is truth for those who it was written to. In this lesson, Wayne builds the case against Preterism and explains why it is an incorrect interpretation of scripture.  The scripture reading was from 2 Timothy 4:1-8 KJV

“1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.”
