Bible Note: I don't think I said they were right or wrong. I addressed Dispensationalism which to me has been defined as the various stages seen in scripture where God interacted with man in different ways. We see God actually walking with man, then communicating with man by voice or phenomena, then through the judges,kings and prophets, then by sending his actual Son to walk among man and then through scripture and the church being lead of Holy Spirit. Call it what you will but you have to see those diifferences. What struck me as most odd is a reformer looking for a confession that details Dispensationalism. To me that smacks of Rome's methodology. I thought the Reformer was a staunch believer of letting every man decide for himself how to interpret scripture instead of having some "organization" through creeds tell him what scripture means. The importance of Dispensationalism boils down to where God and man started out and how down through the ages God has used different means to draw man unto him. First it was selected men, then a selected family, then a select nationand now all that have accepted Jesus as their savior. Each produced the results God desired but the last completes the definition of God's love for man. |
