  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

What was the connection between Darby, Scofield, and Oxford University Press, the publisher of the Scofield Reference Bible? What factors influenced Darby to adopt an entirely new eschatology? Why would Oxford University Press be interested in Darby and promoting the Scofield Reference Bible?

Yup. And I find them as valid as " the Colonel Sanders Conspiracy" to rule the world by putting addictive substances in his chicken. Zionists created the Scofield Bible! lol

I guess it was in the "11" (an Illuminati number?) herbs and spices, lol.

But getting back to Darby and dispensationalism, his system does seem to match up with the expectations of Babylonian Talmudic Judaism:

http://www.jewfaq.org/toc.htm

"...Jews do not believe that Jesus was the moshiach. Assuming that he existed, and assuming that the Christian scriptures are accurate in describing him (both matters that are debatable), he simply did not fulfill the mission of the moshiach as it is described in the biblical passages cited above. Jesus did not do any of the things that the scriptures said the messiah would do.
On the contrary, another Jew born about a century later came far closer to fulfilling the messianic ideal than Jesus did. His name was Shimeon ben Kosiba, known as Bar Kochba (son of a star), and he was a charismatic, brilliant, but brutal warlord. Rabbie Akiba, one of the greatest scholars in Jewish history, believed that Bar Kochba was the moshiach. Bar Kochba fought a war against the Roman Empire, catching the Tenth Legion by surprise and retaking Jerusalem. He resumed sacrifices at the site of the Temple and made plans to rebuild the Temple. He established a provisional government and began to issue coins in its name. This is what the Jewish people were looking for in a moshiach; Jesus clearly does not fit into this mold...."

I agree, 'some' ideas are the same, those ideas which are drawn from the Word of God.

I'm looking for something in print, his Synopsis of the Bible.

I have a friend who has Darby's Complete Works (must be twenty volumes or so). I think he would be interested in selling them. Thet seem to be in excellent condition.

Steve

PM me if interested.

Mal Couch of Tydale Theological Seminary notes "Oxford Press was in financial straights but they caught the vision of this project because of the popularity of dispensational teaching. Later, they admitted that the publication of this [Scofield Reference] Bible saved their company!"

It's hard to imagine Oxford Press in financial straits. But they did discover a lucrative business, didn't they?

If only the Gideons had known... :doh:

Doesn't Israel's PM Sharon call dispensationalists Christian Zionists? Didn't Marx discover religion to be the "opiate" of the masses? Could they have discovered an especially potent "opiate"?

Are you familiar with Mal Couch? Have you read any of his stuff?

I think when you make a wrong assumption ( Didn't Marx discover religion to be the "opiate" of the masses), then your conclusions will be wrong as well.

On the other hand, are you suggesting that dispensationalists are some sort of drug addicts?
