What about “the bodily change to immortality and incorruption”?
Philippians 3:20-21, “20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.”
Don Preston and gang in Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism can’t answer for any real change when it comes to the dead or alive saints at the second coming of Christ.
The “change” that Don and gang have is “a corporate group” or “a corporate body of people” who were ALL “participants in a corporate covenantal change” in AD 70 at the second coming of Christ.
Whether it was an alive on Earth saint or a dead saint, they ALL went through an alleged “corporate body change” and “corporate body resurrection” at the second coming of Christ.
This is Max Kingism 101 concerning “Corporate Body View” or “CBV”.
They would have ALL “experienced” the same “change to immortality” and “change to incorruption” and “perfection” and “glory” – because this “corporate body of ALL Old Covenant Age saints” is what was RESURRECTED and CHANGED to immortality and incorruption.
It’s a mystical, metaphoric, symbolic, allegorical, hyperbolic, and hyper-spiritualized “change and resurrection of a corporate body of ALL Old Covenant Age saints” at the second coming of Christ in AD 70.
This “change and resurrection” of a “corporate body” included “ALL Old Covenant Age saints” that were allegedly “entering into the New Covenant Age” when “Christ appeared, came, and returned in his presence in AD 70”.
Yes! This is totally Occult New Age Religion talk – where those “alive on Earth saints at the second coming of Christ in AD 70” went from one second being “in the Old Age” to one second later being “in the New Age”.
The question is… What did they EXPERIENCE from this one second to the next second that made them know they went from being “in the Old Age” to being “in the New Age”?
If the answer is “they experienced nothing”, then what kind of “change to immortality”, “change to incorruption”, “perfection”, and “glory” is this?
Does Don Preston and gang say that they are RIGHT NOW experiencing this immortality, incorruption, perfection, and glory “in the New Age” that allegedly began in AD 70 at the second coming of Christ?
Don Preston and gang say the alive saints remained on Earth after the second coming of Christ in AD 70 – so it seems that Don and gang would say that THEY RIGHT NOW have the exact same experience of immortality, incorruption, perfection, and glory that those AD 70 saints experienced at the second coming of Christ when they “entered the New Age”.
WHAT IS THIS EXPERIENCE of “going from the Old Age to the New Age” with the change to immortality, change to incorruption, perfection, and glory?
How would Don say that he partakes in a “corporate body change and resurrection” that took place in AD 70 at the second coming of Christ – because he says that it was THIS “corporate Old Covenant Age Body” that WAS “resurrected”, “changed”, and “experienced” immortality, incorruption, perfection, and glory in AD 70?
And how do INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCE what this “corporate Old Covenant Age Body” allegedly experienced in AD 70 concerning a “change to immortality” and “change to incorruption”?
Don Preston really doesn’t have any sufficient answer for what those AD 70 saints PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED AT THE BODILY CHANGE TO IMMORTALITY – other than dancing and jumping for joy at the news of their persecutors being persecuted (which is sheer insanity).
Concerning Ed Stevens (who is also Covenant Eschatology Full Preterism but IBV), Ed sees a literal Rapture in AD 66 where he most definitely has a “Great Disappearance” of the saints on Earth in AD 66 – where they all literally disappeared.
So Ed has the alive saints experiencing a disappearing in AD 66 when they each had their biological physical flesh body literally change into spiritual bodies.
Ed’s idea of the Parousia of Christ (end time presence, coming, arrival, and appearing) is a 42 month Parousia of Christ between the literal Rapture of the saints in AD 66 and the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70.
1 Thessalonians 4:15-17, “15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first. 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 15:51-53, “51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”
Philippians 3:20-21, “20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.”
