Though it would help if you didn’t assume you were posting to a scriptural illiterate, you are still wasting your time in proselytizing to me. And I’m way too old for to confuse someone’s fervor and self–conviction with the truth.

You may have better luck with the nonCatholics, probably evangelicals, nonDenom, Pentecostals more so. If you stick to the same sola scriptura, meat and milk, rightly divided, what’s scripture for, etc., parts of Romans, most of the boilerplate of your post, I think you’ll be fine, since you’re already in agreement with nonCatholics on all that anyway. But if you’re more forthcoming on the full Dispensationalist teaching, well, most Protestants still have a problem not following the teachings of Christ.

All heresies have a bit of truth that, usually, is their foundation for a whole bunch of false teaching. Calvinism comes to mind. And they also are completely convinced they have rightly divided the scripture. If others would just study the word like they have, they’d agree, they think. You all think you have rightly divided it, yet you end up differently.

The easiest way to identify heresy is usually where it ends up, not where it begins. In Calvinism it is salvation by election. In Dispensationalism it is dividing out Jesus ministry, the Kingdom of God, from the Church and replacing it with Paul; in the separating and differentiating Christ’s teaching to his disciples, to His other Apostles versus that to Paul.

Once he or she realizes this about your teachers’ invention, you will lose the follower of Christ.

I would wish you good luck in this endeavor, but I have to be honest: I wish you bad luck in it as it a false gospel and, at the least, wastes folks time in their walk with Christ.

Well, didn't you just break my heart. First YOU ASK ME questions about dispensationalism, then when I answer your question, you dismiss it as if I had knocked on YOUR door to hand out a bible tract. And actually, you seem very much a scriptural illiterate. One cannot be Scripturally intelligent and a follower of the RCC. They don't match, if you haven't noticed. The truth is a total stranger to you, if you met it, you would turn around and run to the nearest Mass for a wafer and a sip. To make you feel better and all.

Your religion is much older than mine. Yours began in Genesis Chapter 3, was enlarged in Gen. Chapter 10, and has grown steadily since then. I don't think you could ever discern truth from a lie. The truth IS a lie to your religion. So continue the facade of knowing God's Word, and be smug in your "knowledge" of Christ's teachings, and God's plan for man. You've cast your lot, but there are those who have not, yet. Those are the ones who need to hear the truth. Not the RCCs "version of the truth." There is a difference.
