Tonight, a pastor who I admire greatly was talking about all the Old Testament prophecies "about the Second Coming of Christ."
He was obviously referring to the "last days" or "day of the Lord" prophecies.
Problem: If those prophecies are referring to Christ's Second Coming, they render a belief in Bilical inerrancy impossible. The Apostles clearly stated that the "last days" and the "Day of the Lord" were in their time. If that Day did not in fact come, they were wrong.
Of course, as a preterist, I believe those prophecies are very clearly in reference to the last days of the Old Covenant, ending with the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. It's the plainest reading of the text, assuming one does not begin with taking Dispensationalism for granted.
