Edward, indeed.

Have you turned it over in your mind recently. A quck search found a book predicting that soon Dallas will discard this innovation.

Also found this.

Dispensationalists begin by clearing the board of all opinions except their own; they dismiss as useless and false all historic interpretations. Next they divide the human race and the Bible into three distinct groups (this is convenient since any scripture which would otherwise refute their interpretation can be relegated to another "division" of Scripture). They add many arbitrary elements which are not supported by the Scriptures, such as extra captivities, extra kingdoms, extra covenants, extra judgments, extra ages, and so on and on. All of these stand or fall together. To disprove one of these premises is to collapse the entire theory.

Back later. My boys need new shoes.

As a formerly convinced dispensationalist, I would honestly like to revisit my errors with you.

I don't debate eschatology on line and am not interested in lengthy correspondance. But visit me in Baton Rouge and I'll buy the coffee and we can talk.

BTW, I did my PhD at Westminster so I have been around my share of covenant theologians and we spent many hours there discussing eschatoology.

Please cite the source and the basis for the conclusion. I know many of the men at DTS (many of the faculty department heads) and I think this is wishful speculation from non-dispensationalists. But if they should, my theology wouldn't be changed thereby.
