The hosts of Covenant Radio, Jeff McCormack and William Hill, are glad to announce a major radio / Internet debate. The debate will be on February 9, 2008, at 10 AM EST. This will be 9 AM central time. This will be a two hour debate. The disputants in this debate will be Lou Ruggerio, dispensationalist, and Don K. Preston, preterist. Each man will have the responsibility and opportunity to both affirm a positive proposition, and deny his opponents affirmative proposition.
Resolved
: The Bible teaches in Matthew 16.27-28 that Christ's second coming in judgment would occur in the first century generation.
Affirm: Don K. Preston
Deny: Lou Ruggerio
Resolved
: The Bible teaches that the second coming of Jesus, as foretold in Matthew 16.27-28, is yet future, and will occur at the beginning of the millennium.
Affirm: Lou Ruggerio
Deny: Don K. Preston
Both men are experienced debaters, and have met each other before in radio debate. Furthermore, each man conducts himself in a proper manner, with Christian decorum, while at the same time pressing their arguments. This provides the listeners with the opportunity to focus on the issues at hand, and not on personalities.

Covenant Radio is currently enjoying approximately 3,000 active listeners at this time, but of course, this number does not begin to approach the number of Internet listeners.
This promises to be a lively, entertaining, and important discussion, of a hotly contested and controversial scriptural passage. Be sure to tune in and have your Bible and note book handy!
