The problem I have is when an author takes the time to bash other forms of theology simply because they have an open forum. It just seems like there is a better way of getting the point across. (like in a girls bathroom) And I also thank you for the advise on sifting through the bs to find some truth. I have been slowly learning that discernment needs to be the student of scriptures sharpest tool. I totally agree that traditional dispensationalists have some good insight into scripture.

One day my friend asked me, "why aren't you killing sheep and doves"? Then it hit me, God has dealt with mankind in different ways throughtout history. It's the delineation of that process where the disagreements take place. I think the whole Scofield/Ryrie dispensations is arbitrary and man-made. But for a whole generation of Christians, those Scofield footnotes were inspired like Scripture. Theological education is a process of seperating the wheat from the chaff. Hold your nose, focus on the positives of the threshing. I used to rail against dispensationalism. One day my friend asked me, “why aren’t you killing sheep and doves”?

Also, Shockley would demand a lot more out of a anti-dispensationalism paper than Loken, so you should be okay. Well, I tend to rant, which is one of the reasons my paper would have been so long.

It never really stops in that book. I decided to take the class as a pass/fail because the assignment involving the book would have been too long for me to write. Shock wanted us to write a paper about what we learned from the book, and what we agree/disagree with about the book. I could have either lied and done the minimum 12 page paper, or been honest. Then again, I didn't have time to write a 50 page paper, so I decided to take the cheap way out and not write it. Yeah. It never really stops in that book.
