While I appreciate Dr. Riddlebarger's response to dispensational errors, I take his comments about postmillennialism and "amillennialism=reformed eschatology" with a grain of salt. The reformed confessions on this subject are broader than he may care to admit.

Every generation for the past two thousand years saw their times as the end times and had 100% proof(sic) that they had evidence of every word in Revelation being fulfilled in their time. I see no difference in them and the current dispensationalists, especially as the modern ones seem to change their evidence on a yearly basis to fit whomever the foe is at the time.
I guess I fit into the category of a believer in preteristic eschatology (that most, if not all of Revelation was written about contemporary events to the author.)

I take his comments about postmillennialism and "amillennialism=reformed eschatology" with a grain of salt.A-mil is the traditional reformed view, although post-mil and historic pre-mil are acceptable under the confessions. I'd have to see what he actually writes to know whether or not I agree with his conclusions.

Given Calvinists sensibilities and ???willful??? (how can THAT be???) blindness about such matters, the following post is not directed to them. They can certainly attempt to snooze on through prophetically unfolding events as long as they can get away with it.
Dr. Walvoord’s excellent
EVERY PROPHECY IN THE BIBLE
is a wonderful resource for those unallergic to the Biblical facts of END TIMES issues, dyanmics, events.
Worth the time considering Israel becoming a nation again in 1948 as Biblically predicted.
Add in the MARK OF THE BEAST already being required by some employers for access to high security areas . . .
All the nations of the world finding Jerusalem a heavy burden around their necks . . .
The growing drama and unprecedented nature of VARIOUS signs in the heavens . . .
The looming one world government . . .
The unprecedented expansion and exchange of knowledge world wide . . .
The unprecedented expansion of rapid travel world wide . . .
The massively global effectiveness of the globalists defining evil as good and good as evil . . .
The looming completion of the task of communicating the Gospel to every people group on the planet within the next 12-25 years . . . likely within the next 12 . . .

Bro's and Sis', let us not throw the baby of actual, covenant-based understanding of the past, present, and future, when we throw out the "dispensationalist" bathwater.

Don't you have better things to do with your life than to dig up old articles that rag on dispensationalists every day?
Just curious.
