That's the first thing I ask a customer when they come to me with a problem. I ask them has it been worked on lately and what work was done?
If you just replaced the points I would unhook them to test the coil with a good power source. Look for any wire inside the distributor now for it shorting to ground or touching the frame of the dist. I've had that happen my self after installing new points. It's very easily done.
Since it ran before you installed the points and now it doesn't after you installed them I would vote to say you have a bad connection or the points are not closing to allow any current to flow thru the coil. There are many tests you could do with your ohm meter but too many to mention here.
