Thread coming as soon as I can get to it.
Can we start by putting to rest the idea that Darby started it and it didn’t exist before that?
The first congregation was established in Plymouth, Devon, in 1831.
Websters 1828 has this definition
4. That which is dispensed or bestowed; a system of principles and rites enjoined; as the Mosaic dispensation; the gospel dispensation; including, the former the Levitical law and rites; the latter the scheme of redemption by Christ.
If Darby was such a great teacher that he had converted Webster three years before his first congregation, Darby should have been writing books about church growth and he could have been more popular than Ziglar.
He would have been making converts in a foreign country that had less than two decades before been at war with. This he would have done by the age of 28. I think history does not bear this out.

Charlie - you dont need to - this thread is the one!
Ok, when I get to it I'll post it here.
Ephesians 1:10
That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
I’ve been looking and I don’t see the Trinity in the previous verse.

If that sort of argument was valid, then all the guys who use that argument should be historic premillenial by their own reasoning.
