A Walk Through Preterist Papers
Patricia Bailey of Preterist Papers
About Preterist Papers: In our videos and papers, we are seeking to strip away the false assumptions and unbiblical “traditions of men” that hinder understanding the nature of “the Day of the Lord” or “the second comingChrist’s return, fulfilled in 70 A.D., ending the old covenant—not the world.,” as it is commonly called. The meaning of this event is obscured by futuristic assumptions and must be comprehended using a sound, contextual hermeneutic allowing scripture to interpret scripture. We are espousing “fulfilled eschatology”.

Kingdom Delivered
About Shade: Shade Stone was born in Ontario Canada, and raised in a friendly Catholic home. From a very young age Shade took great interest in God, Jesus, and Music. After a ’20-plus’ year career in the Canadian Music Industry Shade began taking an interest in learning more about The Bible, and it’s influence. He was taken back by the variety of interpretations which created a greater desire to study the Scriptures for himself. In 2022 he began focusing his youtube channel on his biblical interpretations with a Full Preterist Lens, including the release of a video called ‘History Proves Jesus Returned in 70AD’. Shade Stone’s Channel and his Presentations have been drawing increasing interest and attention ever since.
