Preterism is the claim all end time prophecy has been fulfilled, somehow without anyone noticing the end ending.

Scripture says through one man, sin came upon all men. Rom 5:12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned— Rom 5:17 For if, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more...

The abomination of desolation is the middle of Daniel 70th week, not the beginning of it. Jesus described much more than just God’s wrath, then says we can escape ALL THOSE THINGS coming on the world. - not just one aspect of what He described 11. (Luk 21:34-38) How to live in the last days...

You need to learn how to interpret the Bible. Metaphors are vague. The description of the new Jerusalem city is far too detailed and too specific to possibly be a metaphor.

Revelation 20:11 seems to be poetical or metaphorical, else how can the sea give up its dead in verse 13, if the earth and seas had already been destroyed in verse 11? Rev 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Albert Barnes: The earth and the heaven fled away - That is, as the...

The place Jesus went to prepare for us to dwell in, comes down from heaven and is 1500 miles long and wide, the city New Jerusalem, per Revelation 21. Yes, it’s a literal city. Metaphors aren’t that specific - we’re give it’s height, width, length, number of gates, thickness of the walls...

FIVE opinions outlined in a commentary on the water in John 3: Okay, this David Guzik commentary lays out and discusses the five common interpretations that are out there, and it includes the opinions I’ve seen in the OP, including mine, which is that the water is living water, but this may...
