Bible Difficulties

I can think of two possible meanings of this verse (John 21:22):

1. John's vision of the second coming which he recorded in the book of Revelation (Rev 19:11).
2. The judgment of all upon death (Heb 9:27). There is a sense in which Jesus comes again to each of us at death.

Preterists claim that this verse supports the idea that Jesus came again in 70 A.D. when the Romans destroyed the temple. I reject this view.
