Recently, preterist theologian Gary DeMar of American Vision was invited to debate ex-preterist and now-futurist Dr. Brock Hollett, who is the author of Debunking Preterism: How Over-Realized Eschatology Misses the Not Yet of Bible Prophecy.

Gary DeMar Fails Miserably in His Debate Defending Replacement Theology (aka Supersessionism)
