Re: About how many here hold some preterism views?
I can't speak for everyone else, but as for me I certainly confess Jesus Christ as Lord of heaven and earth.
He is Lord of all.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Matthew 28:19
This scripture is Him authorizing His Apostles to go and demonstrate His authority to the nations.
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
He is Lord of Heaven and Earth.

When so many of His own will not acknowledge Him as Lord of all why ever should the world?
Mat 28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
Mat 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Mat 28:19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Mat 28:20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway,evenunto the end of the world. Amen.
Why are we willing to accept 19,20 but not 18 ? well that makes 17 make sense.
