Some of you may be familiar with Greg Koukl’s “Stand to Reason” apologetics ministry. They have a weekly radio show, archived in podcast form, and I’ve recently begun listening. In a couple of recent episodes, callers in have asked about preterism, and Greg (and the callers in) has distinguished between preterism and hyperpreterism using the abhorrent “partial” and “full” prefixes, against which Dee Dee has rightfully railed (see this blog post, a shorter version of Dee Dee’s article, “Perfuming the Hog“).
Being new to Greg’s show but having developed a respect for him and his aim toward teaching Christians how to think, rather than merely what to think, I decided I’d call in and humbly request that he change his terminology. I agree with Dee Dee that the terminology we employ is important, and likewise wrote about it at my blog in “A War Over Words“. If you would like to listen to my discussion with Greg, check out his podcast and listen to July 18th’s show, “Reflections on UK Vacation.” I was the first caller in the second hour of the show, and you can fast forward to 00:59:43 if you want to skip to my call.
