Ridiculous comment and a demonstration that you are uninterested in dealing with the biblical data.
Let me ask a simple question:
Was the Garden of Eden a unique period of time in the bible?
Yes or no will suffice.

With all due respect, you are avoiding the issue, vis. that dispensationalists use the word "dispensation" in an entirely different manner than does the Bible.
The Bible never refers to Eden as a dispensation of anything. You know that and I know that. I’m not going to argue with your non responses to my point.
No, because it still exists.
“Was the Garden of Eden a unique period of time in the bible?”
I think it was unique, but not in the way you think, if I understand where you’re going with this.
My understanding is the word “dispensation” in the Bible means administration. You mentioned Eph. 1:10: “to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment—to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.”
That’s the NIV translation, “into effect” or “dispensed” or “administered.”
To my knowledge at least, the other verses that contain the word “dispensation” (and there aren’t many of them) don’t concern time at all.
