Summary: Good for understanding Fundamentalist Christianity
Comment: in the United States, but NOT a good source to understand general Christianity. If you want to understand people who follow Jerry Falwell & Pat Robertson, or go to churches that claim that only a few elite (who, of course, only belong to the TRUE church, their church) will go to heaven, it's a good source for understanding their (mis) reasoning.

It's useful for scholars, because Scofield (with no knowledge of the original languages of the Bible, those being Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek) claims that his notes on meanings are the ONLY possible meanings... despite the fact that he's basing it on a Bible that has been translated from Hebrew & Aramaic into Greek, then a bunch more Greek added (the New Testament), then translated into Latin (the Latin Vulgate) and only then translated into English... of a Shakespearean variety, before Scofield updated it to a modern dialect.

It's the most narrow-minded view of the Bible possible, and is only useful to zealots and scholars who want to understand what the zealots reasoning is. The only other possible use is to understand the view of Armageddon driving Bush's war with Iraq, since he is a "born-again" with dispensationalist beliefs.
