Well I was explaining DT in the short version as well. DT has so many versions that it is impossible to gather them and be explicit about each without a book....I actually had in mind Scofield...

Additionally, it is not the case of "either or", but "both and". IMHO the signers of the LBCF had both CT and DT in mind when they signed.........this is where the confusion comes in....

See now this is where you lose me when you say things such as that. Dispensational Theology earliest history is in 1827 from formation of the Plymouth Brethren until now. How can the creators of the London Baptist Confession be dispensationalists when the system of theology didn't exist until 127 years later?

Every covenant theologian agrees that during the various administrations of the Covenant of Grace there was continuity and discontinuity between the administrations. So from Adam to Abraham the administration was different than from Abraham to Moses, or Moses to Christ. What I see and I think others who follow baptist covenant theology is that the administration during the New Covenant has a different discontinuity then what paedobaptist covenant theologians perceive. I don't think this is dispensationalism I believe this is covenant theology from a baptist perspective. And yes it is a different hermeneutic but its hermeneutic has nothing to do with dispensationalism. If anything I would say that dispensationalism took from us (and other covenant theologians) not the other way around.
