Andrew,

I apologize if you thought my response to Roderick was too aggressive. I understand and appreciate that you do not want to turn this into a preterist squabble board.

Having said that I do think my original post about the narrative of Revelation is legitimate. Somewhere you put forth the idea that we need to look at the bigger scriptural picture, not just proof texts. My article does that, with some elegance I think (i.e. the story of Revelation is the same as that of Galatians 4:21-31, two women/cities that are two wives who represent the two covenants). Even if one disagrees with my conclusions, however, I think the post becomes food for thought as one formulates one’s own thoughts on this matter.
