[Alex Murphy]

The 1981 rapture [forty "fig tree generation" years minus seven "pre-trib rapture" years] hullabaloo is perfectly consistent with the idea that the 1948 constitution of secular Israel had prophetic significance, and that passages like Matthew 24 involving the parable of the fig tree and idea that the “great tribulation” would come upon the generation that witnessed the budding of the fig tree (aka the establishment of secular Israel)....

....A whole host of popular dispensationalists, including Lindsey, Chuck Smith, and Edgar Whisenant, advanced this teaching. It was widely accepted within the dispensational community at the time. In fact, I am not aware of any noted dispensationalists who disagreed with the teaching to oppose it publicly.

Another cute non-sequitur photo brought to us by the REPLACEMENTARIANS of FR.

Appears to play on the trite, tired old pretend guilt by pretend association ploy.

But we should probably be compassionate toward them. When their UNBiblical arguments are so foundationally weak, what else can they do!
