Bryan. for some reason your comments got sent to spam – I cleared them so they are up now.

I really appreciate yours, TC’s and Jeff’s interactions so far. You bring up great points, and in fact I am well aware of and agree with them. I don’t follow the dispy pre-mill postion anymore, I tend (like TC) to side with Ladd on the Historic Pre-mill and can appreciate many points in the amill position. I just was musing on my own feelings about Peterson’s comments though I am with you all on what eschatology is “really” about.

I think the biggest issue has to do with how we approach apocalyptic literature – which I think the dispy position tends to either ignore, mis-understand or overlook altogether.

Thanks too for the kind words about the bog.

Haha, yeah… isn’t that the worst? I’ve been lacking in inspiration for a while now.

I’m gonna try and get around to it. Waiting for that writing inspiration to hit.

Bryan, I’ve given up dispensationalism. In fact, as I mentioned on Brian’s blog, I was planning on writing something on it today.

But I do agree with your view of the Kingdom and Jesus and the Eschaton, the beginning of the end. That’s how I love to phrase it.
