Bible Note: Ed, This is from Scofield it seems. "It is instructive, in this connection, to remember that God's appointed place for the tables of the law was within the ark of the testimony. With them were "the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded" (types: the one of Christ our wilderness bread, the other of resurrection, and both speaking of grace), while they were covered from sight by the golden mercy seat upon which was sprinkled the blood of atonement. The eye of God could see His broken law only through the blood that completely vindicated His justice and propitiated His wrath (Heb. 9:4-5). It was reserved to modernists to wrench these holy and just but deathful tables from underneath the mercy seat and the atoning blood and erect them in Christian churches as the rule of Christian life." Now to be fair in the very same sermon he rejects "antinomianism." What he refers to as antinomianism is the suggestion that there is no rule of behavior in the believer's life. He simply denies that it is the ten commandmants or the Old Testament law. So here, we see the main popularizer of dispensationalism affirm that while there is infact a rule of behavior for Christians, it is most certainly not the OT law. Second, here is the webster's dictionary definition for antinomian. one who holds that under the gospel dispensation of grace the moral law is of no use or obligation because faith alone is necessary to salvation. Here is the definition from the catholic encyclopedia. "The heretical doctrine that Christians are exempt from the obligations of moral law." Now...I accept that dispensationalist C Scofield did not teach antinomianism as he himself defines antinomianism. But he taught exactly what the websters dictionary and catholic encyclopedia taught is antinomianism. Is this sufficient documentation? In Christ, Beja |
