CT and non-dispensationalism

Justin,

While I agree that it would be helpful to be able to look at a non-dispensational POH, I am wondering if that distinction is too broad. For example, when we talk about Christological doctrinal malformations, we refer to it as heresy. But there is arianism, docetism, modalism… etc. Thus, I have found it to be helpful to use a non-dispensational category like CT (in the classic sense) to form a sounding point. (Not to call it heresy.. it was just an arbitrary example.) If there is another that I could compare to, I would like to, but aside from some more awry examples of POH that do not pass even the most basic of criteria, I haven’t run across anything in a complete form during my limited stint in theology, except CT.

Also, CT sees the end of all history (telos) as the glory of God in Christ. This allows the CT a preterist view of passages that DT would extend to perhaps the millennium. For example the 70th week prophecies in Daniel 9. Perhaps the Messiah getting cutoff at the 69th week and then restored at the end of the 70th happened in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, and not in the literal sense of the Second Coming in the end. No doubt, Christ will return, but will that be the end of the weeks in Daniel? Or was that already teleologically fulfilled in passion?

I will write more in a bit but programming is a callin..
