Article: INTERNATIONAL PRETERIST ASSOCIATION: REFORMATION OR RETROGRESSION?
Dennis M. Swanson "The HP position, as currently construed, is “comprehensive” in that it (whether its adherents realize it or not) has developed a theological construct that affects every aspect of theology and biblical interpretation. So pervasive are the implications of this system and so pernicious are the outcomes that it is not too much to call this movement “proto-cultic,” that is, a potential cult in the making. The implications of HP in terms of both theology and practical Christian living will not lead to the “reformation” envisioned by its adherents; it can only lead to “retrogression,” a movement backwards to the error of Hymenaeus and Philetus, an error Paul roundly condemned as “overthrowing the faith of many” (2 Tim 2:18)" (Page 57-58)
