On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (12/04/23), Hank answers the following questions:Can you explain the difference between Covenant Theology and Dispensational Theology? Does either system pertain to whether or not we will have eternal life? (1:20)Is there any historical evidence to support the martyrdom of the Apostles? What about Foxe's Book of Martyrs? (7:30)Are there any signs that will point to Jesus' return? What do we have to look forward to? (15:14)Why are there so many people in need if God said He would supply all of our needs? Does this promise only apply to believers? (22:50)

A continued overview of eschatological views, including Covenant Theology, Dispensational Theology, "Light Theology" and the Rapture/ Tribulation/Millennium views.

A general overview of eschatological views, including Covenant Theology vs Dispensational Theology, Rapture/Tribulation/Millennium views.

Pastor Mike Ascher

Welcome, theology nerds and seekers! On this season 9 finale, we're diving deep into the world of dispensationalism. Whether you're a seasoned theologian or a fresh-faced learner, we've got something for you! Our guests are Mike Dente, Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel Paris, France, and Professor Darrell Bock from Dallas Theological Seminary. We discuss everything from the distinctions between Israel and ethnic Israel, the Church, and political Israel, to progressive and traditional dispensationalism. We're unraveling the complex tapestry of God's divine program, one thread at a time. We dive into the pivotal covenants God has made, and seek to understand how these manage His divine program. We also discuss the interplay between covenantal theology and dispensationalism, and what this means for our understanding of the Bible's multi-dimensional nature. We also explore the complexities of identifying God's people (is it Israel, or the Church?), examine the reconciliation of one people of God, and discuss the mission of redemption for Jews and Gentiles alike. We also address the relevance of prophecy update church services… Yes, we're going there! We dig into the ethical implications of judgment and rapture in the dispensationalism context, offering insights on compassionate interpretation and the importance of living out your faith. Plus, we discuss the potential dangers of viewing those who do not share our faith as enemies rather than a mission field. In the second half of the episode, we ask Dr. Bock to engage with an article by Scot McKnight, as well as the teachings of NT Wright. You definitely don't want to miss this!

What is Covenant Theology?  How about Dispensational Theology? Amillennialism? In this session we have an informal discussion on our thoughts on these systems and their strengths and weaknesses.  We start with discussing Matthew 19:28 where it says the apostles will sit on twelve thrones judging Israel.  What does this mean specifically? Was it fulfilled in 70 AD or is it still future? How are people saved?  Are Israel and the church the same thing or different? Support the show

Gary discusses the history of a recently re-issued book called House Divided: The break-up of Dispensational Theology. This book is a response to many other works and is written by Greg Bahnsen and Kenneth Gentry. House Divided is necessary reading for all Christians, because it lays out in great detail the Reformed and Postmillennial approaches to the Scriptures using lots and lots of Bible passages. It is a theological tour de force and it's available in print once again.

16:18 Podcast - 2.10 Dispensationalism In this episode, I discuss dispensationalism, it's definition and background, as we prepare to embark on a series about the Kingdom. What is Dispensationalism? "Dispensationalism is an evangelical theological system that addresses issues concerning the biblical covenants, Israel, the church, and end times. It also argues for a literal interpretation of Old Testament prophecies involving ethnic/national Israel, and the idea that the church is a New Testament entity that is distinct from Israel." - Michael J. Vlach, PhD. BUY HERE: "He Will Reign Forever" by Michael J. Vlach A "literal interpretation" Dispensationalism argues for a "literal interpretation of Old Testament prophecies involving ethnic/national Israel, and the idea that the church is a New Testament entity that is distinct from Israel." If ethnic, national Israel will one day in the future receive the fulfillment of the land promise from Abraham, it will, by default, not include those of the church who are not part of ethnic Israel: thus creating a distinction. When thinking about the covenants, Dispensationalists claim that "the New Testament does not transcend or reinterpret Old Testament passages or the storyline that began in the Old Testament." What this means, then, is that every promise or covenant made in the OT that has not yet been fulfilled literally in the NT will be fulfilled in the future. With Israel, then, dispensational theology claims that since the promise of land and Israel's role among the nations has not been fulfilled up to this point. The NT does not spiritualize or reinterpret that covenant, rather it will be fulfilled in a literal sense in the future. This is opposite to what many in the reformed, or covenant, theological system claim. The Dispensations Vlach writes, "While affirming that salvation has always been by grace through faith alone, Dispensationalism teaches that God has worked in different ways in different eras of history. Dispensationalism often taught that the various dispensations involved a test for mankind, a failure, and then a judgment. This then would be followed by another dispensation. These seven dispensations are (1) innocence; (2) conscience; (3) human government; (4) promise; (5) law; (6) grace; and (7) kingdom." Essential teachings of Dispensational Theology Charles Ryrie writes, "(1) a distinction between Israel and the church; (2) a hermeneutic of “literal interpretation” to all areas of scripture including Old Testament prophecies; and (3) the glory of God as the underlying purpose of God in history."

In our final part of this series, we talk about covenant theology and what it means for us in the Church today. We take an in-depth look at the history of covenantal theology and the role the Reformation played in its development, as well as whether the sign of the New Covenant is the Cross or the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the two versions of covenant theology, and how covenantal theology changes the symbolic meaning of baptism.

In the 12th installment of the Genesis Series, Bill Cumbie takes a brief look at Covenant and Dispensational theologies as they relate to the Noah story.

How many of you have read “The Late Great Planet Earth” or any of the “Left Behind Series”?    Both of these books were greatly influenced by Dispensational Theology. Dispensational Theology, most typified in the Left Behind series of books: a great apostasy will take place in the Church, in Israel the Temple will be rebuilt, Israel will be granted a temporary peace by the Anti-Christ for 3.5 years, a Great Tribulation will follow for another 3.5 years, before which the believers will be “raptured” out of this world, and then Jesus will return at the end of this 7 year period to establish a millennial kingdom. This popular theology of the end times is informed primarily by the Dispensational interpretation of the book of Daniel and Jesus’ discourse in Matthew 24 (and parallel passages in Mark and Luke). John Nelson Darby said there were 7 Ages of the Church corresponding to the 7 Churches in Revelation.  The idea was that the last age of the Church was Laodicean, which in the book of Revelation was a cold and apostate church.  “‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. For you say, I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.” (Revelation 3:15–17, ESV) This view has been common in modern evangelism, and that we in America are in the last days. It tends toward a type of fatalism, but this theology has no biblical support other than this one guy’s interpretation to make it fit his doctrine of Dispensationalism. In truth, the 7 churches in Revelation are representative of those churches at that time and of churches today.  No one can say that the Chinese church is Laodicean when they are going to prison, being tortured and even dying for their faith. While we might say that many churches in America are apostate and unrepentant. Let me lay out my thesis:   Jesus is not coming back for a defeated bride, but for a victorious one. One without spot, wrinkle or blemish. Why do I think that? Because of what Jesus said: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:14, ESV) In other words, Jesus is not coming back until we, the Church, have fulfilled the Great Commission. We will witness to all nations so that those who may be saved will be saved. And THEN the end will come. It isn’t wars or rumors of wars, that signal the end, but a Church empowered to bear witness to Jesus among all nations. Victorious Eschatology/Second Edition by Harold R. Eberle and Martin Trench Has a very different take on the End Times.  I don’t agree with all of it, but it is helpful in terms of showing the flaws of Dispensationalism. Let’s dive into Matthew 24 Jesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. But he answered them, “You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.” As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?” Matthew 24:1-3, RSV. 1) Jesus is being asked 2 questions, which he does not answer in a strict sequential or chronological order: when will Jerusalem be destroyed, and what will be the sign of your return? First of all, this is important and critical to understanding Jesus’ answer. When the disciples asked about the sign of his coming, they were NOT asking about a Second Coming. They did not believe he was going to die, but to become the Messiah King like David who would drive out the Romans and reestablish Israel as a separate nation. Jesus proceeds to give signs that are NOT SIGNS of the END: earthquakes, wars, false christs, tribulation, persecution, etc… during which time the gospel will be preached to all nations… but this isn’t the end. (Mark 13: 3- 13). Jesus concludes that when the end comes, like the taking of Noah, no one will know the exact day or hour… so ALWAYS BE READY!!! ( Mk. 13:32-37; see also Matt. 24:36-44) “And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” (Matthew 24:6–14, ESV) 2) The second part of Jesus’ answer deals with the destruction of Jerusalem itself, of which there are significant and specific signs: desolating sacrilege (Mark 13: 14-31) and which THIS GENERATION (of Jesus’ day) will not pass away until it has happened. Lane goes on to list from Josephus’ account all those things which did indeed fulfill the very words of Christ about the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem… Jesus’ response is that they should look for signs, especially that when you see the desolating sacrilege spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; Matthew 24:15, 16, RSV. “For wheresoever the corpse is, there will the eagles be gathered together.” Matthew 24:28. In Greek, the Holy Place is “topos,” which means “land” not “naos” which means temple. The parallel passage in Luke, writing for Gentiles, reveals that the desolating sacrilege is not an anti-Christ sitting on the Holy Seat in the Temple, but the armies of Rome attacking Jerusalem: when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation has come near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it; Luke 21:20, 21, RSV. It is interesting to note that the word for eagle and vulture is the same word in Greek. Atop every Roman standard was the Roman eagle. The “vultures” were indeed surrounding Jerusalem in 70 A.D.  when this army gathered to destroy it. The corpse was Jerusalem after the people had rejected the Messiah… The vultures were gathered to eat the remains of the dead. Obviously, this “sign” was followed by the complete destruction of Jerusalem, with a great tribulation wherein the starvation was so rampant that the citizens resorted to cannibalism, and over 1 million Jews either starved to death or were killed by the Roman army. This was the Great Tribulation that Jesus spoke about “So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak. And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.” (Matthew 24:15–22, ESV) Historical Background information from Josephus: There were tremendous earthquakes recorded, there was smoke filling the air and a type of darkness, and the rebels installed a clown named “Phanni” as the high priest and dressed him in priest’s garments and seated him on the HOLY OF HOLIES as a Throne!!! IT was a total desecration and a mockery, the rebels (zealots) were so depraved. The ensuing tribulation was greater than anyone could have imagined. Starvation, eating of children for food, etc… War broke out again in 68. And during late 67 and into 68 the Jewish Zealots ran riot in Jerusalem and in the Temple. Josephus tells us they allowed criminals to roam freely in the Holy of Holies; they committed murder in the Temple; they made a clown by the name of Phanni high priest. So devastated was the retired high priest, Ananus, that he lamented in tears; “It would have been far better for me to have died before I had seen the house of God laden with such abominations.” (War 4,3,7) and defiled the temple even before the Romans captured the city. The zealots allowed criminals to roam freely in the Holy of Holies, and they even committed murder within the temple itself (War 4,5,4). These acts of sacrilege were climaxed in the winter of AD 67-68 by the investiture of a clown called Phanni as High Priest (War 4,3,6-8). The Romans did almost exactly the same thing in A.D. 70!  Upon seizing the Temple, the Romans set up their ensigns on the eastern gate and offered sacrifices to them (Wars 6.6.1).2  The main ensign was Aquila, the eagle that carries ZEUS’ lightning bolt.  Here we see a veritable idol of Zeus like that erected 200 years earlier by the Greek army in the Jewish Temple during the Maccabean Wars.  What animals did the Romans sacrifice?  Historians believe the Roman army likely sacrificed the suovetaurilia in the Temple that day in A.D. 70.  The suovetaurialia is a ritual sacrifice of three animals: a sheep, an ox and a pig for the purpose of land purification.  The suovetaurilia was customarily performed for the purification of a Temple that had been destroyed.  Did you catch that?  The Romans set up a veritable idol of Zeus in the Temple and offered a pig in sacrifice to it Jesus is COMING AGAIN.   But when Jesus speaks about the END he says that when the end comes, like the taking of Noah, no one will know the exact day or hour… so ALWAYS BE READY!!! (Mk. 13:32-37; see also Matt. 24:36-44) “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.” (Matthew 24:36–42, ESV) “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. WE WILL BE HATED BY ALL NATIONS> That is our Destiny! What is our response:  We shouldn’t be surprised “Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.” (1 Peter 4:12–14, ESV) 2. We are to REJOICE: “Blessed are you when people hate you and when they exclude you and revile you and spurn your name as evil, on account of the Son of Man! Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers did to the prophets.” (Luke 6:22–23, ESV) Rejoice means GET HAPPY, JUMP FOR JOY! THANK GOD YOU ARE BEING PERSECUTED!

Gary DeMar joins the Hank Unplugged Podcast talking about all things end times and the major problems of Dispensational Theology. 

What are Covenantal & Dispensational Theology? How are they different?

Covenant theology says that the Church replaced Israel as God's chosen people, while dispensational theology says that Israel is still God's chosen people and will continue to be. Is one more right than the other? Each of these views are quite nuanced, so we did the research for you and packaged it together in this episode.

Today's dialogue is the 2nd of a two-part series focusing on Ecclesiology specifically concerning the Nation of Israel and the Gentiles. In the 1st episode, I interviewed Dr. Douglas Hamp. Brother Doug believes in what is known as “Commonwealth Theology” which is an alternative to dispensational theology and replacement theology. In this episode, I will be interviewing Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum. Brother Arnold is a dispensationalist that affirms that the church and the nation of Israel are two separate entities and that the Church is not obligated to keep the law of Moses since we are in a different dispensation. So, is the Church a separate entity from the nation of Israel? or are we actually citizens of Israel? Let's Talk about it.

In episode 22, your hosts Rob McKenzie and Bob Tarullo, discuss the subject of Dispensationalism. Today we begin a series of episodes on the subject of Dispensational Theology. What is Dispensationalism? How does Dispensational Theology differ from covenantal theology? Are the differences important? We’ll discuss these and other related topics in this episode of Theology Simply Profound. Theology Simply Profound is a podcast of Westminster Presbyterian Church, an Orthodox Presbyterian Church, serving the western suburbs of Chicago, where God powerfully speaks through his means of grace.

In this video, well-known Bible teacher, George Zeller presents an excellent background on the tension between Reformed Theology and Dispensational Theology. In the first half of the video he discusses the major criticism of Dispensationalism, and dispels the "Dispensational Derangement Syndrome" common among today's Reformed Bible teachers. In the second half he covers the key Fruits of Dispensationalism. This and Part 2 are excellent background in understanding the tensions between Reformed teachers and Dispensationalists. [Please note, the camera shaking ends after the first three minutes of video - sorry for it]Part 2 will cover the causes of the decline in Dispensationalism.

In this episode Pastor Sam and Patrick “No Compromise With Evil” Wyett discuss the main differences between Dispensational Theology and Covenant Theology. What Bible interpretations lead to Amillennialism, Postmillennialism, and Premillennialism are discussed in this episode along with the allegorical vs. natural approach to Bible interpretations. No matter if you lean Calvinist or Arminian are Reformed or are a Biblicist the foundation where all of these starts is from how you interpret the Bible!

This week we invite the president of TorahResource (and Caleb's father) onto the show to discuss his new video series on the Holy Spirit. Tim will talk about Covenant Theology, Dispensational Theology, and the work of the Holy Spirit today. Executive Producers for this show: Bob Miller, Larue Miller, YeshuaShirts.com, Virginia Powers, John Coulthard, Lew… The post Show #250 – The Holy Spirit with Special Guest Tim Hegg appeared first on Messiah Matters.

Many Christians, as well as other groups, support the right of Israel to have their own nation of land to exist in Palestine under the Zionists, as promised in the Torah. This has led to Dispensational Theology that requires a return of sacrifices and a Third Temple for Antichrist to make a showing, and Jesus to return.This episode will explore who are the Jews claiming Israel.Do Zionists have a right?How does Israel fit into Bible prophecy?Who is Israel?What is the meaning of the Star of David?This is a controversial subject that is likely to get backlash. This is not anti-semetic, as we believe Jews have a right to the promise, and those who come to Messiah will be saved. Only that it needs clarification who are really Jews, and whether or not they will inherit physical Israel as the promise. The doctrine of Pretribulation Rapture will also be mentioned, but that isn't fodder for ridicule from those who militantly defend that doctrine. And if you do not agree, there is room for discussion rather than attack. Nor is this an attack on anyone supporting Israel if that is your conviction.

The "reduction" of Dispensational Theology

Two major paradigms on Scripture today are Covenantal Theology and Dispensational Theology. Covenantal Theology emphasizes the consistency of the covenants in Genesis through to the New Testament. In this view there is a theological coherence between the Old Testament and New Testament. Dispensational Theology holds that the Old Testament covenants apply to the people of Israel until the time of Christ when a new Church period starts. Consider that our theological paradigm shapes what the evidence is and means. Is the New Covenant in addition to and expansion on the Old Covenant? Or is the New Covenant the start of a new system? Explore the distinction between the Critical Realist and Postfoundationalist. The distinction is between “I think this is what reality is like” and “I think this is like reality”. The Realist would say, “This is what reality is like.” The Critical Realist would say, “I think this is what reality is like.” The Postfoundationalist would say, “I think this is like reality”. The Instrumentalist would say, “I think this explains things that happen but have no idea its connection to reality.” Consider Hume and the topic of miracles. For Hume, after experiencing the same thing over and over again we do something reasonable. The problem in the example of a deck of cards is that we have not learned they are all aces of spades. If gravity stopped tomorrow, would we know what happened? If there is no beginning to time then there is no puzzle to how time began. If there is no puzzle to how time began then there is no puzzle about the existence of God or the need for an Originator. Realize that we know less about what is underneath than we pretend like we do. The framework in the way we see things affects the data.

Does the fact that dispensational theology is a recent development argue against its legitimacy? If a theology is new, does that cast doubt upon its validity?

How does Dispensational Theology differ from Covenant Theology and why is it important?

Paul continues to explore the correct relationship between the Mosaic law and Gentile Christians in Galatians 3:10. By stating that "in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham [came] upon the Gentiles," he overturns the argument of the Judaizers (cf. 3:14). One must not let the Mosaic Law replace God's covenant with Abraham, for "Anything that comes afterward does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void" (3:17). With this logic Paul advocates Covenantial Theology: God makes multiple covenants with His people over time to unfold His plan in stages, building block upon block; later covenants do not nullify prior covenants. Biblical Christians ought to contrast Paul's orthodoxy with the heterodox Dispensational Theology that arose in 19th Century Protestant circles and appears in the Scofield Reference Bible (1st ed. 1909). He continues, "Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the offspring should come to whom the promise was made" (3:19). The law can do the work of God by stirring up those who have faith to realize that they must rely on the promise of God. One should follow God's laws without acquiring a delusional attitude of self-righteousness. The law does not work against God's promises but serves as a custodian for the people of God until they come of age (cf. 3:24-29). God designed His people to mature and become "sons of God, through faith" in Christ Jesus (3:26). Christians who follow God's will from the heart are likely to produce works of faith from the heart. Baptism fundamentally changes one's soul so that "there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave, nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus," though one's body and state in life are likely to remain the same (3:28). Further nourished by the gift of the Eucharist, God prepares his people to go into all the world and spread the gospel.

God’s character does not change, but He does vary the way He works in history. Ministries of God the Holy Spirit throughout Scripture. The doctrine of regeneration. “Eternal life” refers to that life which qualifies for eternal fellowship with God. How the Apostle John and the Apostle Paul approach Christian sin and fellowship with God. Questions and answers.

The verb for “fulfilled” is sometimes used, in Scripture, as a platform or analogy and does not always refer to prophecy. The ultimate purpose of history is doxological, not redemptive. “If life in the resurrected state has a purpose, goals must exist beyond salvation.” Israel and the church are two distinct and separate peoples of God. Dispensational Theology and Reformed Theology have differences regarding the nature and mission of the church. Historic fruits of dispensationalism. Questions and answers.

(Promise - Ephesians 3:20) Church history leading up to the reformation. Reformed Theology. The early reformation. Luther and Calvin defined faith as assurance. The second, third, and fourth generation reformers changed Luther and Calvin’s soteriology in response to Roman Catholic counterattacks. Soteriology, not eschatology, was the central battleground of the reformation. Questions and answers.
