- Though I am a dispensationalist. I can’t deny there are extremes and problems with the teaching. I will order the book and hear what he has to say, but unless he convinces me from scripture, I will remain a dispensationalist. Pre-millennialist.
- Why are you posting a review before you have read it?
- Seems a bit unfair to leave three star review without reading the book.
- And to make another point, if you are looking for this book to convince you against dispensationalism you will not find it here. The author has stated that this is not his intent and he also discloses the fact he is not a theologian, he is an intellectual historian so this is a book about the history of dispensationalism. There are numerous interviews with the author on YouTube where he discusses this. I know Al Mohler interviewed him and a professor (can't remember name) from DTS who has a good hour long discussion with the author. You may want to watch them before you purchase the book. I checked it out at the library and am about half way through and find it fascinating. sorry if this double posts as I tried to edit my above reply and Logos would not cooperate
- I really like the way visuals are used to present the truth of Gods word here. However there are a couple of doctrinal issues one needs to be made aware of. The author in this work when he explains the atonement, overlooks Jesus being our propitiation. Though the wrath of God isn't an easy subject to cover, it still needs to be covered. Also in hearing the Author speak, he has an unusual view of Hell, Hell being in us, and not a place. But apart from these two red flags, I still use it and enjoy it for the most part.
