“no longer LEGAL OBEDIENCE as the condition of salvation”

Scofield is clearly saying that before Christ, before the “period of grace,” people were saved if they were obedient to the law.

So did obedience to the law ever save anybody, or was it always by faith?

You ignore Schofield and other dispensationalists saying elsewhere that salvation has always been by faith.

The law, however, was imposed as a schoolmaster to lead us to Christ.

And the truth is that anyone who DID observe the law in all points would be saved.

That actually happened.

Once.
