Did you see your previous posts, and how you denegrated the verses with sarcasm?
Your preterist ideas give you the 'liberty" to attack the verses to the point that a minor analogy in a verse, becomes MASS metaphors.

I am just trying to find the consistency of your thought. In the same verse that mentions the winepress, which seems you take metaphorically also mentions a sword coming out of His mouth, which you insist is literally.
I am just trying to understand how you pick and choose, seemingly at will or randomly, what you see as literal and what you see as a metaphor.
Seems preterists look elsewhere for a term, word of or phrase to see if it has been used before, and what it meant, using scripture as the arbiter.
No liberty that I can see from the preterist, but appears to be mucho liberty by some.
So explain if you will,how or why is the sword literal and the winepress is a metaphor?
