Do Hyperpreterists Implicitly admit a different Gospel?

I have already commended David Green for his admission that all hyperpreterists should take seriously is that from the point of view of non-hyperpreterism, hyperpreterism IS a different Gospel and a damnable heresy.

Here is an interesting statement from Todd Dennis’ site The PreteristArchive (a pro-hyperpreterist site )

JOIN EVANGELISTIC EFFORTS

CD Evangelism effort - Opportunities to spread the eternal gospel seem to have never been better. Preterist Christians are infecting networks world-wide with the optimistic Preteristic message of world ambassadorship.

Yes this does not mean explicitly that there is an admission of another Gospel, but I do think, in conjunction with the tenets of fulfilled eschatology (and eschatology is about the redemption, which is the Gospel) it is an implicit acknowledgment of such.

Another statement says:

CD Image Available for Purchase - The 600+ megabyte-sized .iso CD image file of PreteristArchive.CD is now available for purchase! This allows evangelizing Preterists (or those facing heresy charges) wonderful opportunities.

Notice the juxtaposition of “evangelizing preterists” (ugh) with “facing heresy charges.” Just who are these hyperpreterists “evangelizing” - again, I understand that the statement could easily refer to two different events - evangelizing to nonChristians and facing heresy charges but the proximity is very interesting considering that the CD in question is being encouraged to be uploaded to free servers and distributed to libraries.

Todd is a decent guy and has done a lot of hard work. I can only pray one day it will be for the true gospel and not a false one. Well this site then also exists to assist when hyperpreterists are facing heresy charges - to prove them. Hyperpreterism cannot be allowed to exist in Christian churches and hyperpreterists need to repent and join the brethren in confessing, “I believe in the resurrection of the flesh.”
