Why do you loving christians get so bent out of shape over dispensationalism? Everything you cite in your list is a figment of your immagination. I came to Christ about thirty years ago at 24 after having been raised up in one of 'your' Christian churches and having thoroughly rejected the dead, innefectual and unbiblical 'jesus' they preached. I was awakened to the Truth of Christ in an Evangelical invironment.

Nobody holds dispensationalism as a doctrine. It is not essential to the faith and most of the effective missionary work and preaching of the Gospel is now done by Evangelicals who are probably at least mildly dispensational. All of your bigotry is simply a product of your own prejudice. You are wrong wrong wrong.

Sorry I failed to give you a sufficient number of adjectives when describing my faith. Sorry that "trinitarian" "creedal" "innerrant" etc. are not sufficient "bona fides" to establish (lit.) "good faith!" Out of reluctance to exclude the millions of folks I recognize as brothers and sisters in Christ, I left off some of the more restrictive descriptors: such as, Calvinist, Reformed, charistmatic, evangelical, member of last church for 20 years, of current church for 20 months (job-related move), tongues-talking Holy-Ghost filled child of the heavenly Father, gladly participating in ongoing mission of a church that has planted 12 daughter churches in the last 12 years ...

Do you need any other "qualifiers" before you can stop discounting my eschatology on the basis of defective christology?
