| An Alphabetical Analysis Volume 7 - Doctrinal Truth - Page 5 of 297 INDEX | |
FOREWORD
This second part of the Doctrinal Analysis completes the survey of the
basic doctrines that, independently of all dispensational differences, must
be held fast by every faithful Christian believer.
Many objectors to the teaching known as 'Dispensational Truth' attack
their own false conception of what such a term means. If only they could
distinguish between that which is fundamental to all callings and that which
is peculiar to each calling, most if not all of their antagonism would
dissolve. 'All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God', is true of
all, under whatever dispensation they may be ranged. The Saviour's one
Sacrifice for sin is the peculiar provision and peculiar necessity of no one
calling or dispensation. Faith in the authority and trustworthiness of all
Scripture is basic and independent of all distinctions, and the Person of
Christ, His work and His grace is central and fundamental to every phase and
subdivision of the purpose of the ages, whether focused upon Jew, Gentile or
Church of God, Earth, Heavenly city or Far above all.
While only too conscious of the limitations both of our ability, and of
the necessary recognition of available space, we nevertheless believe that
none can peruse the following pages without profit, and if these two
doctrinal parts lead to the conviction that:
'Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus
Christ' (1 Cor. 3:11),
we shall be honoured indeed.
