I think there is no clearer illustration of what warped Christianity Dispensationalism is:

“Everything else is temporary and will end with the next day of being hungry, or sick or lonely.”

This extreme devaluation of Jesus’s ministry is it’s own distorted theology, yet it does dovetail with Easy Believerism, I am Church and Just Me and the Bible theology.

Matthew 26:6-11 6 Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, 7a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at table. 8And when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste? 9For this could have been sold for a large sum and given to the poor." 10But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me. 11For you always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.

Just wow. The money wasn't spent on the hungry and naked and poor and Jesus didn't condemn it.
