And, as I’ve said before, the “real truth of the teaching” of dispensationalism is rather elusive since a) there is no universal dispensational creed, and b) some of you folks (like the progressives) keep changing the terms of the agreement.

The real truth of Dispensationlism lies in the difference between the Church and Israel.

That the promises made to Israel are not made to the Church.

That is the essential point that is lacking in false views of dispensationalism such as the 'progressive' one.

Two returns of Christ are mentioned in the scriptures, one for His Church (1Thess.4) and one coming back with His Church (Rev.19) to set up the Davidic Kingdom which has yet to happen.

Any escatological view that ignores that fact is simply rejecting clear scripture on the subject.

It boggles my mind that anyone could consider themselves to be Bible believing Christians and FAIL SO UTTERLY to comprehend those simple facts.

I sure strongly agree with you.
