Quote: Decade after decade, dispensationalists have endured the charge by their opponents that there are no historical antecedents for their doctrine prior to John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) and the Plymouth Brethren.

Bass declares that “No dispensational writer has ever been able to offer . . . a single point of continuity between what is today known as dispensationalism and the historic premillennial view.â€Â
