it sounds as though you cannot divorce dispensationalism from pre-trib beliefs?

WHOOPS. sorry, I saw "PREMIL" and you wrote "pretrib" therefore alot of what i said above is senseless. Please forgive.

Yes, I have never met a pretrib advocate who was not dispensationalist. Like I also said though, there is a first time for everything.

Why would a non-dispenstionalist need a pre-ANYTHING rapture in his system. The only reason for a "rapture" like folks teach is to get the "church" out of the way to go back and work with the nation of "israel" (a distinction which is unbiblical, btw).

I try to be precise in my words but I am not always clear or precise as I want to be. I make mistakes, also. I also hope that others will allow me to correct these mistakes or allow me to rephrase what I say (my point) in a better way. I hope for the same from you? .

Anyway...hmmm...I suppose I, myself, cannot divorce my (current) understanding of scripture from the idea of a true (spiritual) Church versus (a secular promised land) Israel.

Question:

Why does most of the world hate Israel (as a secular nation)?

I am curious about your ideas on this.
