And Preterism (Lee N. Field’s probable poison)

Did I say I was a preterist?

But, I guess everybody's a preterist to the dispensationalist who throws everything to the end of the age. When Jesus said "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies....", it's pretty clear, He meant the Roman siege.

Breathe in, breathe out. "Already, not yet."

My eschatology is "amillenial", distinct from topcat54's postmillenialism. My view does not, for instance, require an early date for John's Apocalypse, which is why I tend to sit that battle out.

A better chart in pdf format.

I find dispensationalism "ungospelish" in it's assumptions and implications, for reasons I spell out briefly at the first link above, and Oswald Allis covers in much greater detail.

“I find dispensationalism “ungospelish” in it’s assumptions and implications,”

Having briefly read your backup, I think you are shooting at straw men. Dispensationalism does not require the idea that there are two concurrent methods of salvation.

Foe what other reasons do you find it “ungospelish”?
