God’s grace demonstrates all that in every way without the need for constructs like dispensations. Dispensations are just a way that some find to compartmentalize the bible in order for it to make sense to them, but that doesnt mean the viewfinder is the object viewed

Dispensationalism can be viewed as an excuse for "dispensing with" parts of the Bible one disagrees with.

• The civil statutes of the Old Testament?
  • Well, we're under grace, not under law, so we'll let those nice clean-living Nazis make all of our laws for us. Surely that is more pleasing to God and better for our neighbors than any "legalistic" attempt on our part to suggest that maybe God was right.
• The continuing miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit?
  • Well, God is the Great I Was, not the Great I am, and everyone knows that "tongues shall cease."

It's strange, sad, and weird, to see how many Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians also embrace dispensationalism, since this school of thought emphatically, rudely, and passionately denies the distinctive experiences of such Christians.

AMEN!

The Bible, both Old and New Testaments, is one singular book relating God's plan of salvation for His people, each one named from before the foundation of the world and saved by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ risen from the cross.
