10 God Has Always Had a Plan
My Call and Commission I CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 15 57     But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58     ¶ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

11 God Has Always Had a Plan
My Goal To present Truths contained in the Word of God pertaining to God’s Everlasting Covenants. To provide building blocks that provide a solid foundation for our faith and a practical systematic theology. To encourage and strengthen everyone that has chosen to invest their time in this study. To encourage personal faithfulness and Holiness, to encourage witnessing to the lost and provide a solid scriptural foundation for study of God’s Holy Word, The Bible.

12 God Has Always Had a Plan
Method of Biblical Interpretation II Timothy Chap 2: 15 “Rightly Dividing God’s Word” 15     Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 1. Accept the meaning of Scripture in its most normal, natural and customary sense 2. Take Scripture in Context 3. Compare Scripture with Scripture – Acts 17 :11 Be a Berean 4. Before truth is realized, all seeming scriptural contradictions must be harmonized. If Scripture Appears to Conflict with another Scripture, The Scriptures are not being read in Context.

13 God Has Always Had a Plan

14 According To The Scripture
1. God’s Word…Through His Covenants and Prophecies. A complete Revelation of His Plan and Purpose for all Ages to the Earth and the Human Race.. It is God Inspired and without error. 2. The Old Testament and New Testament Compliment 3. Written by 40 Different God Inspired Authors, over a period of 1600 years and in three languages. 4. There are 66 different books, 39 OT, 27 NT, they are not in chronological order. 5. Jesus came to Earth, Lived His Life, Died For Our Sins, was resurrected from the Grave and will come again, all According to the Scriptures.

15 God Has Always Had a Plan
Dispensations Salvation has always been by Faith.. In the OT in God and What He Told Them Specifically to Do at that time (Dispensation) and in the NT in God the Son – Jesus Christ Recognize “Israel and Church” Differences and Grafted Together Romans Chapters 9 -11

16 God Has Always Had a Plan
Dispensations Innocence …Gen 1:1 – 3:7 Conscience … Gen 3:8 – 8:22 Human Government … Gen 9:1 – 11:32 Promise … Gen 12:1 – Exodus 19:25 Law … Exodus 20:1- Acts 2:4 Grace & The Church… Acts 2:4-Rev 20:3 Millennial Kingdom… Rev 20:4 – 6 These Dispensations are not ways of Salvation but manners in which God Choose to Relate to Man

17 God Has Always Had a Plan
Master Time Line

18 God Has Always Had a Plan
Definition of a Covenant In simple terms, it is a formal agreement. It may be an agreement between two people, a treaty between nations, or a relationship between God and a human individual or nation. A covenant is more personal than a contract — it involves loyalty and allegiance, not just a financial exchange.

19 God Has Always Had a Plan
Covenants (A) CONDITIONAL A covenant which guarantees that God will do His part when the human requirements stipulated in that covenant are met. Key Phrase …If you do, I Will … (B) UNCONDITIONAL Distinguished from a conditional covenant by the fact that its ultimate fulfillment is promised by God and depends upon God's power and sovereignty for its fulfillment. Key Phrase… I Will

20 God Has Always Had a Plan
Conditional Covenants If you do, I will…. LEVITICUS CHAPTER 26 3     If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; 4     Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. 5     And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely. 6     And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.

21 God Has Always Had a Plan
