10 Myths in Futurist Eschatology (End Times)

Why Full Preterism Stands in Contradiction to Futurism in Eschatology

#1) "End of Time" or "The End of Time" is a Biblical teaching?

Neither of these terms appear anywhere in the Bible, nor does this teaching.

Ecclesiastes 1:4 "One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever" This verse says the earth abides or continues forever!
 

Isaiah 9:7 "Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this"

God's Government, Peace & Kingdom shall never cease to grow, it will increase forever. How does the Kingdom continually grow? When souls pass from this life, to eternity: whether or not this is meant as a spiritual application (when one is born again) or if it refers to our moving on into the Kingdom once we physically die, its' increase is forever. Increase can not occur unless there is something to increase with (additional souls)

#2) Scripture clearly states through Prophecy, a 3rd Temple must be built in Jerusalem before Christ will return?

I believe the greatest argument used for this is Ezekiel 40-48 however; I see something completely different being mentioned in these chapters. Ezekiel is in the 25th year of the Babylonian Captivity (Ezekiel 40:1) probably around 580-570 BC. Ezekiel is given visions of a Future Temple wherein there will be priests and sacrifices. Why would God order carnal sacrifices to begin again, after Christ came as the ultimate, final, and only spotless, perfect sacrifice?

Most Christians, who profess to know these chapters, really don't. This is a section of Scripture that requires study for discernment and it's been my experience that the greater majority of society has the attention span of a gnat. I know I'll get blasted for such a statement but oh well, my opinion is that, mine.
