I wouldn’t have thought of Dispensationalism as being a very Catholic doctrine especially Jesuit sourced.

No ... not at all Catholic. The main thing is that Catholic doctrine is along the lines of “Replacement Theology” (Supersessionism) which basically says that Israel has forfeited all the promises of God (to Israel) and that the “church” has now inherited all those promises. And that Israel is no longer prophetically significant in prophecy (in other words, God is finished with Israel).

On the other hand, Dispensationalism teaches that all the promises of God to Israel will be fulfilled and not one promise will go by the wayside. And it teaches that Israel is not only prophetically significant, but it is KEY to the future as announced by God. Also, what goes along with that is that the “church” and “Israel” are distinct and separate from one another and that one must know when the Bible is speaking to the church and when it is speaking to Israel.

Catholic doctrine is extremely AGAINST ISRAEL while Dispensationalism is extremely FOR ISRAEL. The two teachings are the OPPOSITE of one another.
