There is ony one people those whom has chosen as his people, which include jews and christians. to say there are two distict people, runs into heresy. Now if you want viewpoint on Dispensationalism this too is heresy. In Todays so called Christian circles there is too msny views that have come into the Picture In the mid to late 1800s in the US, you have the Millerites (Seventh Day Adventists) Campbellites (Church of Christ - no music), Jehovah Witnesses,Christian Science, Look at your Bible and Mormon ( Church of Latter Day saints) are all questionable in their respective teachings. Dispensationalism came into existence and it has been considered a heresy. Pentecostalism has come into existence and it has been considered heretical too. Read the background history of these religious movements. Look at the Purpose Driven Movement heresy, Church Growth Movement heresy. positive Confession Heresy, Christian Scientology heresy Read your Bible and study everything and anything. keep in mind when man touches he has a tendency to corrupt it and make it something that it was never intended to be. However their will never be a perfect religious tradition because mankind has a tendency to put its stamp on it and corrupting it. Personally I like the mennonite and amish (anabaptist) being separtate from the world, but the clothing restrictions and the strict rules and regulations.
Doctrine is important

If one throws out dispensational beliefs as heresy, then reformed theology also gets thrown out as heresy, because dispensational soteriology is based upon reformed soteriological doctrine.

If reformed soteriological doctrine is thrown out as heresy for not placing the Catholic Church first, then Catholic doctrine is heretical for placing faith in authority and power prior to faith alone in Christ alone.

On the other hand, it is possible to be a believer in Christ, part of the body of Christ, by thinking in belief through faith in Christ, in any environment, and still build doctrine upon doctrine by remaining faithful through Him in what He provides.
