Manifold Wisdom of God
The Theology of Dispensations
Israel and the Church
April 3, 2016 • Bob Leonhard
If Israel and the Church are different, then parts of Scripture are written to each. To “rightly divide” the Word of Truth, we must begin by knowing to whom a given passage is written. Christians must respect the nation of Israel and never succumb to Anti-Semitism. Accurate eschatology depends upon a dispensational interpretation. Understanding the distinction guards us against Judaism and related beliefs.
Hermeneutics of Dispensationalism
March 20, 2016 • Bob Leonhard
A “dispensation” is a period of time in which God “dispenses” His grace in a certain way. Dispensations are God’s distinctive and different administrations of world affairs throughout time. Different dispensations feature different methods that God uses. But every dispensation is about the Person and Work of the God-Man, Jesus Christ.
