I just realized something from reading several
more
anti-dispensationalist essays: these guys do not get it. "Completely
disrespectin' what we're sayin', man!" Now mind you, I am simply
commenting on what I've
noticed.
Some of the wackiness I've seen dispensationalists accused
of:
Two different ways to be saved (Friends, we, like you, know that we're saved by grace alone
through faith effective by what Christ did on the cross. Salvation is by no other.)
Not preaching to Jews (Strange being that my uncle is a Jew
who is saved by means of dispensationalists preaching to him.)
Followers of LaHaye (Please accuse dispensationalists of
following Ryrie, or Walvoord or Pentacost or Darby even but not LaHaye or Jenkins or
their fictional writing.)
Prone to antinomianism (Paul's letter to the Romans pre-empts this question which is bound to arise in any
believer who knows that he has been saved from the penalty of the Law. "Shall
we now sin so that grace may abound?" Thank God that Paul immediately answers
that thought with a "God forbid". That's right, dispensationalists don't like that kind of wanton living either.)
Ah well, we all look through a glass darkly and one day we'll
be in the presence of the Lord chuckling over the fact that none of us really
got it right. Praise be to God that we're not qualified for His presence by our
understanding of what He has done or how He works?but by what He has done on
the cross of calvary.
