Oops. Faux Pas.
What I meant to say was, "Respectfully" (indicating a respectful disagreement), not "respectively" (indicating a logical progression of types).
Mea Culpa.
Incidentally, on the subject of Respect, Xzins -- you have mine, as always, and I am deeply sorry if any prior discussion on Dispensationalism of mine on another Thread turned into some "Godwin's Law" Nazi-flame-war competition. I don't know exactly what happened, as the Religion Thread in question was Pulled before I got back to it a couple days later, so I am just going on what "GOOGLE Caches" I could find.
It seems that accusations of Nazism started getting thrown around, Godwin's Law was invoked, and the Thread got Pulled. At least that's what I can tell from any GOOGLE Caches.
If so, that's never what I intended. In my experience, most Dispensationalists tend to be some of the most earnestly kind-hearted (if misguided, IMO) folks I'd ever hope to meet; hardly candidates for the SS or Gestapo, by any imagination! (Good grief... that's not what I said!) My objection is purely theological; I don't believe that it is Theologically-Right for Christians to ever elevate any one Ethnic Group above any other within the Body of Christ, whether "British-Israelism" or "Identity" or any other theology.
Since the Thread apparently turned into a "Nazi-Godwin" flame war and was Pulled before I had a chance to explain my objections more fully, I'll try to explain them another time, on another thread.
But not here. Thread-Hijacking is bad ju-ju. Some other place, some other time.
Best, OP
The thread did die, and I was the one (I think) first to invoke Godwin's Law. I had no idea, though, that the thread eventually died. I had left it. I became disenchanted with the inability of some to name the people who currently are legal occupants of the land. I find that so silly....like believers in God's foreknowledge who refuse to acknowledge that it, too, is irrevocably predestinarian in its effects.
No sense getting into it here.
