70ad is a good summary of what a Preterists believe as their focal point found in all their creeds. Its such a classic textbook stumblingblock. It is rather amazing that the concept of ad70 being counterproductive to faith is so foreign to the gospel.

We believe Scripture teaches Christ would come again in that first century generation while some of His original disciples were still alive, to judge the living and the dead. And we believe in one universal body of believers (both visible and invisible), which is the Church.
