Sucker punches.

[Justin Adams]

It may startle the reader to know that they have been unwittingly misled by the dispensational preaching and teaching that is worse than the pandemic. It is everywhere. The only vaccine is the truth; a truth largely withheld due to socio religious mandates and a media blitz by most wealthy proponents. If you dare to question it all, you will become an outcast (just like Yeshua/Jesus was).

How many sermons and books talk about the past history as if it were future? How may have been taught incorrectly about the past present and future. How many are waiting for a 'rapture' that will never come until the Final Day of the Lord leaves them speechless and wondering what they had missed? They have been taught that Christ is not reigning now, but will arrive and fix everything totally forgetting His last words as He left. "Go and make disciples.."  They have been taught that the devil is in charge and not Yeshua. Nothing could be further from the truth but the 'church' persists in its silly ideas that were inaugurated by Darby and Scofield and The Dallas Theological Seminary.

Sucker punched my friends.

Unfortunately, dispensational eschatology, which arose in the 1830s and is built on the futurist system, thoroughly dominates evangelical preaching, education, publishing, broadcasting today, and day dreaming. (Gentry)

Alternate subject title: "Justin Adam's Anti-Rapture Rant."

Bring your game onto the field, and leave the trash-talkin' on the sidelines.

Are the last 200+ years of Dispensational teaching from an aberrant and deceptive spirit?

Maybe they can be heard to criticize others for "twisting scriptures".

The harvest field is a wonderful inoculation against the malaise of the pulpits and pews, brother. The field is where we witness the power of Jesus Christ and walk in His Holy Spirit. There's no place for strange fire and strong delusion where the Lord sends His faithful ones... He purifies us with fire like silver is refined in the furnace.  

That which has been is what will be,
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.
(Ecclesiastes 1:9 NKJV) 

Remember the parable of the wedding feast. That which has been is what will be, and that which is done is what will be done. Those who were invited to the feast would not come so what did the Lord do? He sent His servants to the highway and told them to invite as many as they could find. Just as this was true of that generation who grumbled in the wilderness, it was also true of that generation who accused the Son of God of having a devil. It's true of every generation since: those who are invited refuse to come. 

The wicked grumble and gnash their teeth upon the righteous; the righteous goes on their way counting it all as joy. It pleases God to exalt the lowly and simple and lay low the mighty and wise; I've witnessed this very thing and I rejoice in the grace and mercy of our Father in heaven. A very long time ago when the Lord called me out of this world, where did He send me?

To a building of pews and a pulpit? No. He sent me to the field where the workers of His harvest gathered. Let us be about our Father's work and pay no heed to strange fire and strong delusion.

I am an old woman of simple mind.

I just need to focus on today and get through it with Him at my side.

I don't have time to worry about tomorrow or any of the future events that God has complete control over.

I only have today to share my faith with others.

The end.

I agree with you that we should not be thinking the devil is in charge. I am a futurist, but are you aware that dispensationalism came out of Calvinism and the reformation? To see dispensationalism as some new recent theory that cannot be correct is to believe that the church under the Catholic Dark Ages (where we were not allowed to read the bible and the Alexandrian allegorizing of the bible) was the correct view for over 1,000 years? How could theology develop under totalitarians rule? Are we saying that since the crusades and inquisitions kept the body of Christ in order, we would consider any doctrine that a man or woman would have been killed or tortured for against the holy church of Rome would not be accurate doctrine because it went against papistry? Are you sure that God's word chained to a lectern so that common man could not read it was the spirits intent for the church for 1,ooo years?

The Reformers, almost to a man, knew that the office of Pope is the anti-Christ (Daniel's little horn) and that Romanism is the Whore of Babylon.  This aligns best with amillenialism and categorically NOT with dispensationalism.

[Marathoner]

Faithful are the wounds of a friend,
But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
(Proverbs 27:6 NKJV)

Justin's "sucker punch" is that kiss of an enemy. The dispensationalism rampant today (taught by the Dallas Theological Seminary) traces its origins to the delusions of John Darby of the Plymouth Brethren. It's a 19th century phenomenon, not an error of remote antiquity. Spurgeon opposed the heresies which Darby and the Brethren espoused.

And so today we find Darby's heresies widespread among the pulpits and pews. A sucker punch to us all.  

[debrakay]

It always amazes me that the ghosts of the Sadducee's and Pharisee's (aka religious experts) are still roaming the minds of mankind today.  If only all of the chosen of God would focus on the lost souls who seek faith, hope, peace, and love and need to hear the Good News of salvation through Jesus Christ.  Instead, the lives of many orators revolve around trying to explain their interpretation of the mystery's of God which does nothing to bring the the unsaved to the arms of Jesus.  

Mark 8:36 (NIV)
What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?

Isaiah 55:2 KJV
Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

It also aligns with their Catholic roots. The reformers brought with them the dark ages Catholic belief of amillennialism. But dispensationalism did come from the reformers. You might have asked how so. But even still, here is an interesting article that seems to be helpful in making some of those connections. Blessings.
