Another would be those following the New Covenant doctrines cited by Donatus, a pastor at Carthage, that forced the Catholic infant-baptizing heretics out into the open.

Eh, that must be why so many churches have Donuts after the service.

Just Googled Darby. If the article I read is correct, he's the dipstick we have to blame for Hal Lindsey. And dispensationalism.

Incidentally, how did he square the circle of dispensationalism with his idea that the Holy Spirit could speak through any member of the Church?

I think the Pentecostals would have a veritable *cow* over that one.

Dare I say "Holy Cow!" ? /pun> ...and look! A doctrine of men (pre-trib rapture) which (thanks to Jack Chick among others) a lot of American Evangelicals think is *real* Christianity, despite the fact it's very much a Johnny-come-lately.

Fascinating.

"And dispensationalism.

You are a dispensationalist, but just don't know it.

Take the quick test:

1. Do you believe that you live in the Garden of Eden?

2. Do you believe you live under the Theocracy of the Nation of Israel?

3. Do you believe you live during the time between the Garden of Eden and the Flood of Noah?

4. Do you believe you are living in eternity future?

I you answer no to these four questions, you are some kind of dispensationalist.

The only thing in dispute is how many dispensations there are...
