OK, I guess what I am really looking for here is not why it is a possibility in scriptures, but proof of how it already happened.

Lets say I already believe that the scriptures are correct, and that they did indeed predict the second coming of Jesus in AD 70. Since that event is now history, not unfulfilled prophesy to be speculated on, what is the explanation of all those things listed in the whole book of Revelations?

For example, in history, the first coming of Jesus happened, and we were able to look back at the things written beforehand in the Old Testament and explain how the actual events fulfilled the details of the written prophetic events. That is all I am asking. Since it already happened, explain the events as they actually happened in history, and how those events fulfilled the previously written prophetic events of Revelations.

His first coming is well documented throughout our history books. I don't know of very many people who believe Jesus was never born and never hung on a cross. It just remains a fact in our world history that he indeed was born and crucified. So shouldn't there also be all kinds of history about this just as important, if not more, second coming? How does this other viewpoint address this very large portion of the Bible? For this discussion, forget about the parts of the Bible that prophesy about WHEN this event will happen, for just one moment. Focus on how the historical events fulfill all the other prophetic scriptures.

Please forgive me for not listing exact scriptures. I am not very good at this. I know I am probably in way over my head being in the "Deep Waters" forum. I am just searching for better understanding from people who hold this specific belief to be true.

Thank you to all who take the time out of your daily schedules to post your beliefs here.
