Well, Ryrie's more contemporary version of dispensationalism differs from that, but classical dispensationalism did hold that God operated differently with regard to salvation in the different eras. I am glad yo see that you have problems with Darby, since he did indeed have issues. However, how do you embrace dispensationalism without factoring him in, however, since he is the father of it? --Joe! |

Hi Joe, I never studied the history of dispensationalism. For years all I knew about it was from a Southern Baptist preacher. I never heard any names until I started meeting with PBs. Even then, it was mostly Ryrie and Chafer. It wasn't until I studied some history of the Brethren movement that I knew about Darby. Steve |

Hi Steve, I'll enter into the discussion here as I do hold to a Dispensational view of scripture. I'm very familiar with a lot of the leading proponents, such as Chafer, Scofield and Bullinger, having studied and read some of their works.( I use Bullingers' Companion Bible frequently as a resource) Some, such as Bullinger are viewed as having a "hyper"-dispensational theology. I do know of Darby, but have not read his works( I do have his Darby Bible on my Logos software). I've found through my growing in the Lord that "labels" are sometimes hard to defend. It depends where someone is coming from, or what their preconceptions are of the term. As I view it, Dispensationalism is a framework through which to view scripture. It's a method of interpretation. It is not always agreed upon, and certainly has detractors within Evangelical Christianity regarding some of its' tenets, specifically water baptism, and the start of the Church, and the nation of Israel vs. the Body of Christ. Interestingly, the church I attend does not adhere to a strict Dispensational theology, nor do my Pastor and I agree on every issue. However, we have agreed to disagree and are good friends and enjoy each others fellowship. I believe it to provide a very sound framework through which to understand the whole of scripture and to make sense of seeming "contradictions". That is why I am a proponent of this system. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

Hello BradK "I'll enter into the discussion here..." Yes! Jump in. The water's fine. I've read some of Bullinger's work. I think he went too far by over-analyzing typology. I've tried to read Darby, but he's difficult. I agree concerning the dispensational framework. It seems to fit well. Steve |
