The two quotes below are from two Preterist leaders. However, I can't see how the first quote would be classified as a Full/Hyper Preterist view. It places NOTHING in 70AD. Notice the second view by Don Preston and how extreme and narrow minded he seems. He places everything in 70AD including the "fall of Satan" and "his demise" and his "being cast into the lake of fire". I wonder how Don Preston could make such a statement and how people (brainwashed as they may be) continue to HELL HIM. Ward Finley "You see, I believe that death being swallowed up, and Satan being thrown into the lake of fire was a promise for the believer. There is still sea for the one who doesn't believe in Jesus. There is still division between nationalities etc. But in Christ those things are done away. So I should qualify that "in Christ" those things are done away."

"Finally, Revelation posits the final downfall of Satan as "at hand." The entirety of the book, not just parts of it, were said to be "at hand" (1:1-3; 22:6f). In chapter 12, John saw Satan fall from heaven; he also noted that Satan had only "a short time" (12:12), in which to accomplish his devilish designs. His demise was at hand! In chapter 20, we see him finally defeated and cast into the fiery lake. (WARNING HYPER PRETERIST TRICKERY, AT HAND !!!!) The honest student simply must find some way to correlate these passages which predicted Satan's final defeat with the emphatic time parameters placed there by inspiration. To deny the CHRONOLOGY of the predictions is nothing less than a denial of the inspiration of the predictions."
