Thank you Brother Jones.. I've tried to 'get in line' with these old patriarchal liberals as of late....

But.. I have heeded your advice, as well as Brian's - and find it to be a truth. However, all I ask is that you don't get mad at me for saying it the way it is. I am not afraid to call something, or someone, foolish or ignorant (ignorant means lacking knowledge)..... Foolish is self-explanatory... We have all been foolish in times past, in times present, and I am confident in times to come. But, if a person insists on such a position, when it is clearly false, needs to be called out on it specifically...

In fact, lying addresses all kinds of issues when it pertains to law and order. So, my thinking is - don't be foolish, nor ignorant.. check everything out.... make sure it is true.

As far as Darby is concerned.. Indeed it is a false claim to say that he is the father of dispensationalism from the 1800's to today. No.. The Apostle Paul clearly used the specific word, and in Greek simply means.. 'a specific arrangement or system by which something is dispensed'. It is obvious that a dispensation is given between the OT and the NT.. (as an overview example....
Law vs Liberty...Israel (OT) vs the Church (NT).. etc..)
