About the Title: While books such as Left Behind and The Late Great Planet Earth have been best sellers, the theological foundation on which they're built has been in trouble since the mid 1980s. Some of the academic institutions founded to promote dispensationalism have moved away from unqualified allegiance to the system. Many scholars have embraced a new variety of dispensationalism known as Progressive Dispensationalism, while others have defected to Covenant Theology.

Ronald Henzel argues that traditional dispensationalism's current plight can be traced back to its founder, John Nelson Darby (1800-1882). Henzel offers a new paradigm for understanding Darby, one that has far-reaching consequences for those who would attempt to understand both dispensationalism and its problems without first consulting the writings of its primary architect.

Endorsements:

"Dispensationalism has significantly influenced the evangelicalism of today, but it is undergoing a profound change at the present moment. Where it goes largely depends on where it came from, and Henzel's excellent, carefully researched book helps to clarify many obscure things. This is a must read for anyone interested in this topic." —Dr. Walter Elwell, Professor, Graduate Theology Studies, Wheaton College
