Israelology The Missing link in Systematic Theology
Dispensationalism: System of theology based on a literal interpretation of the bible that views the world as a household run by God dispensing its affairs according to His will, in various stages of revelation in the process of time. These various stages mark off the distinguishably different economies; these economies are the dispensations, which are usually seven.
Therefore a dispensation is from two points of view God’s and man’s God’s viewpoint it is a Revelation, Evaluation, Determination Man’s viewpoint it is a Faithfulness, Accountability, Responsibility
Dispensations of God have both Primary and Secondary characteristics Primary are two Rule of God (Authority) Responsibility of the subjects of God (Submission) Secondary are three Test, Evaluation success or Failure Determination reward or judgment
The Tenants Dispensationalism The consistent distinction between Israel and the Church The consistent usage of a literal hermeneutic The ultimate purposes of God are Doxological (His Glory)
The Salvation of Dispensationalism The requirement for salvation in every age is by Grace through faith The object of faith in every age is God The content of faith changes in the various dispensations The basis of faith in every age is the sacrifice of Christ
The Eschatology of Dispensationalism Premillennial Literal Hermeneutic Israel is Israel The Church is the church The Rapture of the Church A literal Kingdom age on earth with a very strong Jewish emphasis
