“Israel Only”, “Covenant Creation”, and “Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism”

This comment below is mine that I made in response to an “Israel Only” advocate. “Israel Only” springboarded off the heretical Max King framework of “Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism” around 2005. A few years earlier in 2002, “Covenant Creation” springboarded off the heretical Max King framework. “Israel Only” says that “God’s people were saved in AD 70” at “The Parousia of Christ” (just like all of the Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism Cult), and that Jesus and his disciples spent the 40 years between the cross and AD 70 searching out ONLY Israelites to “bring back into the fold”. And “when God’s people were saved in AD 70”, this completely wrapped up God’s Redemption Plan – which “Israel Only” says was for “only the nation of Israel and nobody else”. The founder of this cult, Max King, took the opposite view of “God’s people getting saved in AD 70” at “The Parousia of Christ”, and he made “God’s people” be ALL PEOPLE – meaning the founder of the “Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism Cult” became a Universalist because he said “The Parousia of Christ in AD 70” allegedly brought “God’s Salvation for all Mankind in AD 70”.

Here’s my comment to this incorrigible and egotistical “Israel Only” advocate. Btw… This addresses everybody in the Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism Cult who heretically claims that “Salvation for God’s people came in AD 70” at “The End Time Parousia of Christ in the first century”.


Adam brings forth a people, and Jesus brings forth a people. By what means is somebody in Adam? And by means is somebody in Jesus? What does “becoming born again” mean?

Nicodemus says, “What do I gotta do? Go back into my mom’s womb and be born?” And Jesus corrects him on his physical biological genetics flaw thinking. It’s about being born of the Spirit! And your foolish pride and ego has you constantly trying to save face.

When somebody is baptized with the Holy Spirit by God, they are born into the family and household of God. This is the simplicity of being personally born again, and it’s not about biology, genetics, or lineage. There is the corruptible seed of man, and there is the Incorruptible Seed of God, God the Holy Spirit.

Jason, your biological dad could never produce a perfect, spotless, blameless, holy, glorified, and sinless child with his corruptible seed. Your natural dad was conceived and born in Adam from his dad, and you were conceived and born in Adam. But God the Holy Spirit as the Incorruptible Seed of God brings forth members of God’s family and household with people becoming personally born again of the Spirit.

When the disciples of Jesus were baptized with the Holy Spirit in the upper room, this was all brand new in Humankind. The Holy Spirit came to dwell IN somebody, and not just be UPON somebody like in the Old Testament. And the Holy Spirit dwelling IN somebody is the guarantee of an eternal inheritance in glory in the highest Heaven. And then after the upper room, the disciples witnessed God the Holy Spirit falling upon non-Israelites/Jews. They had to take all this stuff in because it was brand new stuff to experience.

God’s Redemption Plan was never for Israel only. There’s people from Adam to Jacob/Moses that are included. They were not Israelites. And then there’s the “Gentile Pentecost” in Acts chapter 10. Peter knew that the Holy Spirit falling on a Roman centurion and his family was unusual to say the least. God prepared Peter with the visions of the unclean animals. Peter ended up defending his decision to baptize these Gentiles by explaining that God gave them the same gift he gave the Israelite/Jewish disciples.

You have God the Holy Spirit saying “I can only fall upon and enter genetic DNA Israelites for 40 years, and nobody outside of genetic DNA Israelites are invited to become born again into God’s family!” Yet it’s so obvious that God the Holy Spirit was not discriminating in such a way! What began as some Israelite/Jewish people becoming born again by God, obviously progressed outside of this group of people.

The Kingdom of God was stripped from Israel a few years after the cross, and it was given to the Church. It’s the Church that disseminated the seeds of the Gospel, and to ALL WHO RECEIVED AND BELIEVED, God gave them the power to become the sons of God and be born into his family and household. This believing and receiving is still taking place today. And it’s all according to God’s Redemption Plan put in place before the creation of the Universe, which includes the Church getting saved on the cross and certainly not in AD 70 like Don Preston and gang heretically believe.

The Church is made up of persons from many nations. My personal redemption and salvation was secured by what Jesus accomplished on the cross, and I’m from the United States. There’s persons from Mexico, Russia, Egypt, China, Australia, Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom (okay, maybe not the UK, just kidding), and on and on.

All of Max Kingism messes up the cross really really bad! It’s a shame, but it is what it is. There’s no honesty. There’s no repentance. And there’s always guessing with new stuff to add to an already insane framework. Zach Davis is now adding some of his guesswork to the corrupt Max King framework. I’ve seen this very thing play out for 25 years! Remember Don Preston’s “Barbecue of Christ at the Ascension”?! Oops! He had to walk that one – and other things – back! It’s truly a bunch of hacks playing the confidence trick game to gullible and unsuspecting people!

All of the confusion and abuse flying around on social media platforms concerning Max Kingism is because they make AD 70 be “Salvation for God’s people”. Don Preston blatantly admits to a “40 year Atonement process”.

Jason, you’ve built your spin on Israel Only on this heretical framework. Even the Original Israel Only that began in 2005 was built on this heretical framework. Jeff Vaughn and Tim Martin’s “Covenant Creation” was also built on this heretical framework.

That wolf and snake Max King, who directly taught Ed Stevens, William Bell, and Don Preston! The Max King framework of “Covenant Eschatology” is corrupt through and through. There is no “Old Covenant Age or World or Creation” in the Bible at all. And there is no “The Old Covenant Age ended in AD 70” in the Bible either. And there is no “40 year covenant change or transition process” in the Bible either.

People want to call me all kinds of stuff and try and kill the messenger, and I don’t care at all. I’m focused on the genuine Gospel. And I know the truth of what happened on the cross in AD 31. In my knowing what was accomplished on the cross, it doesn’t matter if The Parousia of Jesus took place in the first century, or if The Parousia of Jesus happens in our future! It’s definitely not both, or a 2000+ year process of The Parousia, like Gary DeMar and some other frauds want to deceive people with.

I don’t place Salvation for God’s people in AD 70. I place it on the cross in AD 31. And the means for the Church getting saved on the cross – including every member of the Church – is the biological blood and biological body one and only sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross. This can NEVER be compromised!

The “spiritual death substitutionary sacrifice of Christ” that Don Preston teaches is heresy and blasphemy of the highest order! EVERYTHING needs to get redefined in the Max King framework of Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism! It is NOT Christianity! It is a cult! And there’s a cult community around this cult that Max King began in 1971.

“You must be born again of the Incorruptible Seed of God” is just as true today as it was in the first century!

And how utterly incredible and blasphemous that Don Preston – the top teacher in the Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism Cult – says that the personal indwelling of the Holy Spirit in individuals STOPPED IN AD 70 AT “THE PAROUSIA OF CHRIST”! Oh my!!!

It’s one thing to be born in Adam out from the corruptible biological seed of your biological father and out from the water and womb of your biological mother…

…but it’s something entirely different to be born again by God the Father by God the Holy Spirit coming to personally dwell in you until you biologically physically die.

Ashamedly, the Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism Cult guys eliminate one’s biological physical flesh body from having anything to do with the Adamic death problem that started in the beginning in Genesis. They make Adamic death be “exclusively spiritual”. It’s all an elusive construct and concept that they say has nothing to do with your biological physical flesh body. Many will be surprised when they physically die and then find out their elusive and mystical concept of “spiritual death” was completely wrong. This is what the Gnostics were all about. It’s all mental/mind/spiritual/metaphysical transcendence and ascension in the here and now with special esoteric and mystical wisdom that the “adepts” or “learned elders” teach to gullible and ignorant disciples. This is blatant Occult New Age religion and mysticism for anyone who can see it. This is what has been taking place in the Max King Cult since the early 1970’s. And guys like Zach Davis, Don Preston, Mike Sullivan, etc. simply guess their way through important and critical doctrines while constantly building on a corrupt foundation that Max King laid in 1971.

Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”
