David's awesome. There are few aspects of his theology that I do not agree with, but I have seen him debate arminians and catholics with much success.

This is GREAT!
I actually have Larkin's Book. Reading it help "convinced me out" of being a Dispensationalist. Although, having studied some drafting and cartography in H.S. & College, I will say that Larkin was a great draftsman. Imagine the plans he could have drawn up for the Captial Building in the "New Theonomic Republic of America"  |

I actually own a copy of that book, and can't wait to write a rebuttal of the whole thing some day.

There is a more modern version out on the market as well. http://www.christianbook.com/Christi...&event=CF#curr
I've browsed through a copy once, ad it seems that the only difference from Larkin's charts is the addition of color. |

Ice and LaHaye's book doesn't follow Scofield/Larkin Dispensationalism.... it DOES follow much of the 'revised' dispensationalism of the Ryrie/Walvoord era, though. There are differences.

It was this book that illumined me to the separate identities that dispy's put between Isreal and the Church. I automatically round filed that theology, having already read Romans and Epeshians as a young Christian.  |

| Didn't you know dispensationalism is a self-evident truth?

As someone who is (quickly) coming out of Dispensationalism, this book is a good example of what I like to call "ridiculosity." I would say, though, that what is currently being taught in Dispy schools (Progressive Dispy) bears little resemblance to this book.
This kind of book and, especially Left Behind stuff, is what is convincing me more and more that dispensationalism is ridiculous in many ways.
