I would like to mention something in regards to this issue.

My pastor is a Dispensationalist, but he is also a 5 point Calvinist. I cannot for the life of me understand why he is a Dispensationalist; the only think I can gather out of it is, he does not put much study into the end time issues, and therefore really does not have a solid foundation in these issues. However, I believe, if he does one day invest time, prayer and study into Eschatology, his stand will probably change.

The church I attend, I attend with a fried of mine, who used to be a full time pastor of a (Reformed) Congregational church, he also cannot understand it. Well he attends when he can, because the pastor is a 5 pointer; when not attending he is preaching at a Presbyterian church while their pastor is away.
