“What part of my testimony, that I eschew all of the doctrines and traditions of men across the board, did you not understand?”
My apologies. Your post didn’t seem clear to me. But now that you’ve clarified it, I stand corrected: You’re not a dispensationalist.
You linked several articles here which attempted to authenticate dispensationalism historically.
Why then did you offer links to arguments that are based on a dispensational view of history. If you read these articles carefully, on thing you will discover is that the biases and presuppositions of the author is quite evident in coloring his view of history.
If you " eschew all of the doctrines and traditions of men", what makes you think this guy got it right? Or perhaps you don’t think his assessment of history is right.
In that same post you wrote:
Enoch is an example. It was known to the disciples, quoted in Scripture, beloved for 300 years and then not just rejected but discarded and remained lost until approximately 1775 when surviving manuscripts were discovered in Ethiopia. The true antiquity was confirmed by fragments of copies found in the Dead Sea Scrolls which carbon date to 200 B.C.What do you believe is the authentic, God-breathed Scripture? IOW, what is your Bible?
