Your reformed Preterist Escgatology Is Jesuit Catholic driven (Luis De Alcasar), trying to remove the future human man "The Antichrist" with false claims of 1st Century Fulfillment
Wikipedia: Preterism
At the time of the
Counter-Reformation, the Jesuit
Luis de Alcasar wrote a prominent preterist exposition of prophecy.
Moses Stuart noted in 1845 that Alcasar's preterist interpretation advantaged the
Roman Catholic Church during its arguments with
Protestants, and Kenneth Newport in an eschatological commentary in 2000 described preterism as a Catholic defense against the Protestant
historicist view which identified the Roman Catholic Church as a
persecuting apostasy.
Due to resistance from Protestant historicists, the preterist view was slow to gain acceptance outside the Roman Catholic Church. Among Protestants preterism was first accepted by
Hugo Grotius (1583-1645), a Dutch Protestant eager to establish common ground between Protestants and the Roman Catholic Church. His first attempt to do this in his "Commentary on Certain Texts Which Deal with Antichrist" (1640) attempted to argue that the texts relating to
Antichrist had had their fulfillment in the 1st century AD. Protestants did not welcome such views but Grotius remained undeterred and in his next work, "Commentaries On The New Testament" (1641–50), he expanded his preterist views to include the
Olivet discourse and the
Book of Revelation.
Preterism continued to struggle to gain credibility within other Protestant communities, especially in England. The English commentator
Thomas Hayne claimed in 1645 that the prophecies of the
Book of Daniel had all been fulfilled by the 1st century, and
Joseph Hall expressed the same conclusion concerning Daniel's prophecies in 1650, but neither of them applied a preterist approach to Revelation. However, the exposition of Grotius convinced the Englishman
Henry Hammond (1605-1660). Hammond sympathized with Grotius' desire for unity among Christians, and found his preterist exposition useful to this end. Hammond wrote his own preterist exposition in 1653, borrowing extensively from Grotius. In his introduction to Revelation he claimed that others had independently arrived at similar conclusions as himself, though giving pride of place to Grotius. Hammond was Grotius' only notable Protestant convert, and despite his reputation and influence, Protestants overwhelmingly rejected Grotius' interpretation of Revelation, which gained no ground for at least 100 years.
By the end of the 18th century preterist exposition had gradually become more widespread. In 1730 the Protestant and
Arian, Frenchman
Firmin Abauzit wrote the first full preterist exposition, "Essai sur l'Apocalypse". Abauzit worked in the then independent
Republic of Geneva as a librarian. This was part of a growing development of more systematic preterist expositions of Revelation. Later, though, it appears that Abauzit recanted this approach after a critical examination by his English translator,
Leonard Twells.
The earliest American full-preterist work,
The Second Advent of the Lord Jesus Christ: A Past Event, was written in 1845 by Robert Townley. Townley later recanted this view.
