Dispensationalism is one of the more recent Christian theological ways of viewing the meaning of scripture. It seems to have been added to the theological library by a Jesuit named Lacunza. The motive for the new way of looking at things may have been stimulated by the counter-reformation Council of Trent.
Dispensationalism is relevant today because it is another of the wrong directions that pre-tribulationist evangelical take in forming a worldview with the likelihood of near-term conclusive apocalyptic, eschatological doom soon ahead. That wrong interpretation of scripture affects U.S. politics significantly in environmental and ecological economic policy biased toward non-sustainability.
