Distinguishing Israel from the Church, Part 3 - Matt Postiff
We have given definition to the term Dispensationalism. Then we considered the practical usefulness of this approach to understanding Scripture. Last time, we got down to the proposal at the center of this series, that we should maintain in our minds a clear distinction between Israel, the church, and the future kingdom. In this message we continued to look at Acts 1:3-8 and some other passages that demonstrate clearly the distinction. We also mention that it is helpful to keep the kingdom (in the age to come) distinct in our minds from eternity, which will follow the kingdom and be somewhat similar to it.
