Bibliology: 14 THE COVENANTS OF SCRIPTURE
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker
While
it is true that the six things mentioned in Romans9:4 pertain to the nation of Israel as revealed in the Old
Testament prophetic program, it cannot be denied that some of these things also
pertain to the Body of Christ in this unprophesied dispensation of the mystery.
All dispensationalists will agree that if any Scripture applies specifically to
the Body of Christ it is the prison epistles of Paul, and in these epistles we
find Adoption (Ephesians 1:5),
the Glory (2 Timothy 2:10),
and Promises (Ephesians 1:13; 2 Timothy 1:1). And if all of Paul’s epistles be accepted as addressed to the
Church of this dispensation, then we have numerous other references to indicate
that we today have some kind of relationship to the blessings contained in the
covenants of promise besides Adoption and Glory.
