Number of Dispensations (2/2)

Part One

INTRODUCTION: 1 PROLOGUE

A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY

By Charles F Baker

Just as with any other doctrine which man tries to formulate from the revelation of the Word, it is to be expected that there will be differences of opinion on the subject of the dispensations. Dispensationalists are no more agreed on the number and the divisions of the dispensations than they are on the doctrines of election or the second coming of Christ. Some men call themselves either non- or anti-dispensationalists, arguing that lack of agreement is proof of the falsity of the doctrine. To say the least, this is a rather immature position to take. The lack of agreement should be a challenge to more diligent study. No one man, with the exception of Christ, has had all over that truth. An open-minded, unprejudiced study should bring believers close to unity in this field. It is no mark of spirituality call one’s self anti-anything that is in Scripture, simply to avoid differences or controversy.
