Dispensations
We believe that God has and is managing the world though seven different dispensations. The dispensations are: Innocence, Conscience, Human Government, Promise, Law, Grace, the Kingdom. We believe that we are in the dispensation of the Church Age (also called the Age of Grace), and are believer-priests each with direct access to God.
John 1:17; Ephesians 1:10 (NKVJ), 3:2 (NKJV); 1 Peter 2:5-9; Hebrews 4:14-16
We believe that the underlying and unifying theme of all history is the glory of God, not simply the salvation of man. Everything He does is simply a reflection of His glory. Hence, His plan for the ages will reflect His greatness and glory.
