The Dispensationalist misunderstanding of Scripture has given rise to Christian Zionism, which has re-established the problem Paul faced in the first century of Judaizing the Church. Prior to the destruction of the temple in the first century, the early Church continued sacrificing in the temple and submitting to all of the Old Covenant forms which had actually changed at the Cross. In fact, the book of Hebrews was written anonymously by the Apostle Paul and directed specifically at them in order to break their dependence upon the Old Covenant, its forms, and its rituals.
