Dispensationalism III - Lesson 2
Attached Audio:
- THE DISPENSATION OF THE LAW (Exodus 24:1-8) (Continued)
- Why I Reject Works-Salvation For Any Dispensation (Continued)
- Because no man will have any right to boast or claim merit in heaven (Romans 3:27-28; Romans 4:1-2; Ephesians 2:8-9)
- If merit allows a man to glory in earning his salvation and this kind of glorying is wrong, then why is it wrong for us but all right for those in other dispensations?
- If merit was wrong for Abraham (Romans 4:2), the great Old Testament saint who was called the friend of God (James 2:23), then why is it all right for other Old Testament saints?
- Because works-salvation makes God a debtor to man, something He can never be. (Romans 4:3-5; Romans 11:35)
- Because Paul applied faith-salvation to Old Testament saints.
- Abraham (Romans 4:2-3; Galatians 3:6-7)
- David (Romans 4:6-8)
- Because works-salvation doctrine for other dispensations does not remove doctrinal difficulties.
- There are verses in Paul’s Gentile epistles that are used by some to teach works salvation (Romans 2:1, 6-10; Romans 6:16-17, 21-22; Romans 8:1 [compare 1 John 1:7]; Romans 8:12-14; Romans 13:2; Romans 14:22-23; 1 Corinthians 6:9-11; 1 Corinthians 11:29; 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 [compare Hebrews 3:6, 14]; 1 Corinthians 16:22 [compare Hebrews 9:28]; 2 Corinthians 6:17-18; Galatians 5:4, 19-21; Colossians 1:21-23; 1 Timothy 3:6; 1 Timothy 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 2:12; Titus 3:10-11)
