Question
Hello,
How are you today. I was trying to figure out where and when did the Preterist doctrine come about and was it ever a part of Catholic eschatalogy. Thank you for your time and wisdom.
Peace
Dear Micheal
I believe some forms of Preterist is contratry to Catholic doctrine and some forms are not. Note please I said doctrine not theology.
The events in the bible might have happened such as the destruction of the temple but a prophecy might be what call circual. (spell right?) that it might have more than one application.
End Times and End of the World are two different concepts in Catholic doctrine and theology. Most Protestant sects/communities see use them interchangablly.

Expertise
I am willing to attempt to answer any question. If I don’t know the answer, I will look-up or pass the question on to friends for feed back. Beside Catholicism (especially the social/moral and the Eastern rites), I am well read on Mormonism and so-called Modern Christian Fundamentalism. Also I study Franciscan History as means of growing in my lay Franciscan calling to holiness in Christ.
