I agree with your interpretation of the Bible and believe it is only by speaking the Truth of the Word of God that allows us to evangelize in pure Faith. My dispensational views have never been an impediment to evangelizing the lost, in fact, my experience indicates that Faith comes by hearing the True Word of God, not by catering to felt needs or being concerned about offending someone with the harsh realities of Revelation. We should not refrain from speaking about the dispensationalist view of end times simply because other people have different opinions or interpretations. Satan has initiated his final full court press to impede and distort the Truth of the Bible because he knows we are near the end. Blessings to you and your efforts to make the Truth known. In His name, Gary Mark:

Paul said that such a belief is purifying in the life of a believer. It doesn't hinder the spread of the Gospel, it greatly enhances it when you believe that the time may be short. Humans have made a mess of this world and it's only getting worse, every believer should long for the establishment of the Kingdom of God. I can't wait.

You seem to accuse me of being very sure of my viewpoint, yet you seem to be equally sure that I'm wrong. I understand that not everyone agrees with my view on prophecy, and we made that clear on the program on Point of View. I could be wrong, but so could you. I'm just doing the best I can to understand what the Bible teaches, but there is no reason to accuse me of " killing the efforts of millions who are simply trying spread Bible truth and win souls to Jesus Christ." Think of all the well-known dispensationalists like Billy Graham, David Jeremiah, J. Vernon McGee, Chuck Swindoll, John MacArthur, etc. Are they all killing the efforts of people to wins souls to Jesus Christ? I want to see people saved before it's too late. We can agree to disagree about the end times, but please don't make personal attacks about the desire and efforts of dispensationalists to see people saved. That kind of argument is unnecessary and unhelpful. Blessings, Mark Don,

For instance, You say that the Bible says that Christians will be raptured from this earth prior to the great tribulation. The Bible makes no such claim. There is not one verse of Scripture that states this. Not one! I also heard your comments on the Point of View radio program the other day and what I deduced from that is you would consider anyone wrong who would not agree with you point of view. You are killing the efforts of millions who are simply trying spread Bible truth and win souls to Jesus Christ. I appeal to you from the deepest recesses of my heart, please stop rehasing J.N. Darby theology and get away from Dallas Theological Seminary and its continual pushing of such. preach and teach the Gospel. God will take care of the end times. "He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority."
