Spoken like a true Preterist. See Stevens display of self assurance, and arrogance! His comments that "We know the exact date of his coming." WOW!!! It is kind of funny that he is so confident, yet he shows his assumption by his comments that it "must have happened!!!" It is so sad to see major eschatological events called mere past events which is quite typical of most Preterists. It sounds so heretical even to speak of such important events as a past event. Like the cross being nailed down to a past historical event rather than a event that occurs within the heart. This is heretical if I have ever seen it. Not one passage says Christ came in 70ad in a past tense. Maybe God was telling us that Christ's coming had nothing to do with time. Maybe God was telling us that it was not a here it is, or there it is, but his coming is within the heart, not tied to historical events, and certainly not a mere past event as Steven believes.
Ed Steven's Article That Day and Hour?
Since that generation passed, those events (including His return) must already have happened. Therefore, the passage about not knowing the day or hour no longer applies to us, because the return is a past event. We now know (historically) the day and hour of His return (70 A.D.). We no longer need signs to tell when it is getting close. It is a past event. That day and hour has already come.
