What are some reasons many get trapped by Dispensationalism?

[robycop3]

To me, dispensationalism is the progression of God's revelation of Himself to man, and how He wants to be worshipped. There's no reasonable denial thare's been several periods of different ways God wants to be worshipped. There was the time up to the flood, the time from Noah to the Exodus of Israel from Egypt, the time from that exodus until Jesus came,(commonly known as the Old Covenant time) and the time from when Jesus instituted the New Covenant til now.

Those who believe the false doctrine of preterism call almost everyone who rejects their doctrine a "Dispy", which, of course, isn't true. (But whaddya expect from people who believe something as obviously-false as preterism?)

But again, there's no reasonable denying the dispensations I mentioned above.

I think it is part of the great apostasy along with the Charismatic movement. I was deceived by both as a young believer and it took years to recover. Some of my life is irretrievable because of it. https://twitter.com/hashtag/raptureanxiety?lang=en

I understand what you mean, however I do not think premill can be equated with apostasy as they hold truths but in the wrong time frame

 

[Iconoclast]

Lol, I dare say MOST Dispies have no desire to explore deep into any system that doesn't feed the adrenaline rush. The other systems are
B O R I N G.

This in part is why I used the term....trapped.
Some hold the view and will maintain they studied into the position.
They are a minority.
The majority are taught it.They hold a weaker view than their instructor's and are trapped like in a theological spider's web.

 

[Iconoclast]

Right, like you posted my response to off topic personal attacks, but did not post the personal attacks.
You failed to explain even "traditional dispensationalism" but did post the CT talking points. Me thinks thou protest too much...

Iconoclast says he was trapped in false doctrine for years. Sometimes people move from one bogus view to another such as Replacement Theology. The answer is to actually study the bible, rather than listen mostly to other people.

1] you posts were off topic...Calvinism was not the topic

2] replacement theology is not the topic here.

3]... it is because I study the Bible I am no longer trapped

I refuted myself as I used to be one myself.

Interesting. I used to be a Replacement Theology & Calvinism man, and when I was challenged and prayed and studied, I realized I was wrong and adopted Dispensationalism and suddenly the lights came on and problem-texts/"contradictions" melted away.

 

[Iconoclast]

There is what is translated as "dispensation" in the written word of God. In so far as that being correct there is Biblical dispensationalism.

Two different things

It is apostasy. It's the Pharisees teaching on the kingdom instead of Jesus' Amillennial teaching on the kingdom.

Ah, the sensationalism of Dispensationalism. It's soooo exciting to be living in the last days!

My brother told me yesterday that we were in the last days before Jesus return. Is he Dispi?

Ask him.

Studying scripture is boring.

I don’t understand!

It is actually very sorrowful to be living in the time approaching the Rapture. A Christian's heart should be towards the lost.

You are not God. Only God knows the hearts of men.

Ah, The doom and gloom of "end times" theology

Jesus is a man of sorrow. Do you mock him as well?

Is there ever a time that a Christians heart is not towards the Lost?

Did Kyred make such a claim to deity?
Or did he offer an observation?

I'm quite sure that this thread is an example of a time when a man's heart was not towards the lost.

Why do you say that could you clarify that a little bit?

You're quite the false accuser, aren't you.

Ask him.

He has those leanings
