Dispensationalism can't stand a clear presentation? Only if it is dismissed out of hand in favor of RELIGION can it not stand up to the scrutiny caused by added doctrines, traditions or reading between the Scriptures for something that is not clearly spelled ouy. Because it causes works to fall...flat.. which is where they should be. Religion is an organized set of doctrines and rules on what people are to do for God. Dispensationalism knocks that down flat, and tells you there is nothing a person can do. It's about what God has done for you. Of course you would dismiss it as artificial. You've invested too much time in religion to suddenly realize it's been for naught.

Dispensationalism teaches you to analyze, and not accept everything that is presented. It shows you where you are in God's Plan for Man, and gives you His outline for a particular time. You are working hand in hand with God's Word and His commission for you. THere is no confusion about grace, law, kingdom, tribulation. You are a mature member of the Body of Christ. Able to stand strong when others are being swept around with every wind of doctrine that comes along, and smooth talkers who speak of Jesus, but not the SAME Jesus, who preach a gospel, but not the Gospel of Salvation. And you can tell the difference IMMEDIATELY. It doesn't take weeks of going back and forth, wondering, maybe..No you know immediately.

This is why RELIGION attacks Dispensationalism. There is no chance of fooling someone who KNOWS where he is in God's Plan, knows why he's there, what he's to do, and where he's going when his work is completed.
