None of that happened in 70 AD. Jesus did not return visibly in the clouds like was promised. Satan was not sent to the pit (or this would be a sinless world), and this certainly isn't God's kingdom in it's full glory (how could God's kingdom be so rampant with sin).



I completely agree. I had never even heard of that 70 AD doctrine until a couple years ago. I've talked with some of those folks and there's no way to convince them any different.
