Title: The Usual Misrepresentations....Typical.
Review: Mathison's book is typical of most of the postmillenial reconstructionist/amillenial (most historic premillenialists don't bug dispensationalists as much) folks. He takes statements out of context, misrespresents what dispensationalists believe and makes disagreements where there really are none.Those wanting a good response to this and other books need to check out either John MacAuthur's response to John Gerstner's Primer on Dispensationalism (another book replete with misrepresentations of dispensationalism) or Ryrie's revised Dispensationalism [1993] (was Dispensationalism Today). Ryrie addresses and answers many of the charges that folks like Mathison 'make up' in order to put down dispensationalists.Mathison's book is good to have so you can see how folks like to twist the truth (Curtis Crenshaw and Grover Gunn III's book is also of the same ilk) and it's good for reference purposes, but that's about it.
