A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY

In
conclusion it should be said that dispensational truth has more to do with the
religious or spiritual program for God’s people than it does with basic salvation.
Many practical questions could be asked concerning God’s program for the Church
today in the light of all that God has commanded throughout the ages. For
example, should it build a tabernacle or temple? Should it have candlesticks
and burn incense? Should it have holy days and celebrate feasts at the new
moon? Should it heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and raise the dead? Should
its preachers go out two by two, and provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass
in their purses, nor scrip for their journey, neither two coats, neither shoes,
nor yet staves? Should its members speak with tongues? Should it baptize for the
remission of sins? Should its members eat only fruits and vegetables? Should
they obey the dietary regulations of Leviticus 11, or may they eat pork and rabbit and catfish? Should they
assemble on the sabbath or on Sunday? Should they sell all of their possessions
and have everything in common? All of these things were at one time or other a
part of God’s program for His people. Upon what principle is it to be decided
which, if any, of the above things should be included in the program of the
Church, if not upon a dispensational one?
