Correct. And why start with Galatians? Why not start with Hebrews 1:1 -- "God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways."

"Covenant" hermeneutics effectively denies this statement. They imagine God was really talking to us, but pretending to talk to the fathers.

Dispensationalism, by contrast, believes the writer.

One of the things that impresses me about the oath for service in the US armed forces is the part that goes:

that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same, that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion

No mental reservation or purpose of evasion....

Those promises made by God to Israel, according to the replacement crowd were based on "mental reservation or purpose of evasion..."

Are you referring to Darby or Scofield?
