Darby is by all accounts the father of the modern system known as dispensationalism.

“by all accounts”

Goodness. What an untrue statement!

No wonder Scripture gets mangled so much.

You know, my friend, if you were actually able to back up your “one liners” with something of substance, that would be, well, different.

The fact is the distinctives of the system known as dispensationalism were invented by JN Darby, when, as he claims, he had a “revelation” about the true nature of the relationship between Israel and the Church. Even knowledgeable dispensationalists do not dispute that fact. His unique views were unknown in the Church before 1830.
