Bible Note: Dear Sister Val, To avoid getting into the debate let me “tell” you where I stand :) I am not a dispensationalist and rather feel Covenantalism is a better way to view how God has dealt with us throughout time. I have a feeling that scares you a bit based on your previous posts or makes you uncomfortable. It shouldn’t. In my week and feeble attempt to study and live for God, that has become the prevalent view for me to take, although it wasn’t always. I liked Beja’s use of the “tell” because I been through the same realization. That is all. He explained it well enough in his post. Rather than post all of the Scripture I’ll simply direct you to a website that should answer for you my position on it. http://www.reformed.org/documents/wcf_with_proofs/ It is a link to the Westminster Confession of Faith Chapter VII. Stand in His grace, WOS |
