What amazes me is DR's stupifying ignorance of what dispensationalism
actually teaches; and then he attempts to argue that NCT holds to the
same paradigms?  I have always appreciated some of his stuff
(particularly the amusing cartoons), but to dogmatically assert that NCT
is just dispensationalism dressed up in new clothes demonstrates a
profound unawarness of both theologies.

Well... I think we could give the DataRat a run for the money. :-)  But
how does one engage guys like DR (Jeff Scanlan can correct me but this
was similarly discussed in the past year on the reformed discussion
list) when even this list doesn't really singularly quantify *what* NCT
is?  Is NCT John Reisinger or Steve Lehrer?  Zaspel or Volker?  D.A.
Carson or Michael Adams?  Dorrington or Bresson?  :-)  How does one
dialogue from a position of "enigma"?  :-)

My initial reaction to Wells/Zaspel was similar to the DataRat's, at
least depending on the page where I happened to be reading at any given
time. :-)  
  
Of course, as I read the DataRat's comments here, I'm tempted to have
him explain Meredith Kline within the context of Covenant Theology. :-)
