Honestly, I’ve never seen people get so hot and bothered over a doctrine which has less impact on one’s salvation than end times prophecy.

The problem is before you, but you aren't seeing it. John MacArthur holds the Dispensational view, and no one doubts his salvation. John Gerstner condemned Dispenationalism and no one doubts that he is with the LORD now too. So one's eschatology does not have an effect on one's salvation, but unfortunately, Premillennial Dysfunctionalism has displaced the Gospel as the primary focus on the nominal Christian's life. The Post-Mills here have otherwise summed up the practical errors of relying on that particularly aberrant form of Chiliasm too.

Not only is that wrong for anyone who understands what is needed for salvation but the disparaging word usage is indicative of a weak position.
