"A small glimmer of things to come.

Blade"

I know that dispensationalism predicts a time of Great Tribulation at the end of the Church Age.  But this prediction certainly does not mean that Christians as being  born again individuals, transformed by the Holy Spirit, should not oppose the attack of the Left and not get out on the field in this battle.  In fact a spiritually reduced Christianity in the churches now will only give the Leftists an advantage in the battle to come.  That spiritual reduction can come  out of a revolt against Reformation Theology - that is not a systematic Calvinism as in Five Point Calvinism but in the commentaries of Calvin himself before he died.  Calvin died relatively young, his dates being 1509 to 1564.  I believe it was his successors  who formulated the more systematic Calvinism many now take for Calvinism and Reformation Theology  - or "Replacement Theology" in dispensationalism.
