This book provides top-level scholarship on an enduring tradition. Dispensationalism has long been associated with a careful, trustworthy interpretation of Scripture. Reflective of its past and present status and strategic to its future, Dispensationalism and the History of Redemption is a fresh defense of a time-tested tradition. Made up of ten essays from leading dispensationalist scholars, this volume covers the critical elements to know: An introduction to dispensationalism, including its terms and biblical support; The history and influence of dispensationalism from its roots in John Nelson Darby to its global reach through missions; The hermeneutic of dispensationalism: the interpretive principles behind the system; Dispensationalism and redemptive history: the story of salvation traced through the Old and New Testaments, including their unity and diversity in relation to Christ; Dispensationalism and covenant theology: a comparison and contrast between two main evangelical perspectives on Scripture's unity. With contributors from top-tier schools like Dallas Theological Seminary and Wheaton College, Dispensationalism and the History of Redemption is an expert treatment of an enduring yet developing tradition. - Publisher.
