    So the Son of God would have been rejected as unqualified then.

    The Son of God was rather well educated.

    But despite that he wouldn't have passed through the hoops of some of the churches discussed above! In any event the biblical pattern is of gifting and character being matured through discipleship by existing leaders. A piece of paper says nothing about gifting or character for leadership, only the ability to pass exams.

    What would be more troubling is after it is shown that Dispensationalism was believed in the first couple of centuries an no sign of covenant teaching till the 3rd century. With no proof, make a blanket statement that Dispensationalist area new.

    I believe it is your ture can you show the Covenant belife system in the first couples of centurys?

    I like I said:
    "What would be more troubling is after it is shown that Dispensationalism was believed in the first couple of centuries an no sign of covenant teaching till the 3rd century."

    the link you gave starts (late 300's) and (early 400's.)

    I gave 1st centry proof of Dispensationalism.

    Can you come up with the same?

    You gave 2nd century proof of theologians believing in different dispensations, which is not the same as proving the existance of Dispensationalism as a complete theological system.

    Simple really. In Dispensationalist theology, the existance of different dispensations is a key part part of a larger theological system. One can believe in different dispensations without seeing them as especially significant ( I do and so did a lot of early Christian thinkers).

    Millennium (Seventh millenary of years) chap 81; Frag 15

    Do you believe in a literal 1000-year rain of Christ?

    They seem to believe in the Millennium.

    most no-denoms I have ran into say they follow Baptists beliefs, but when you ask them a few questions like do you bnelieve Once Saved Always Saved they say no, or their stand on tongues the believe it's for today, I'v asked 12 people that I ran into that say they was Non-denom 11 said this only 1 said the believe salvation is forever and don't believe Speaking In Tongues is for today I don't think that non-denom follow Baptist beliefs but other religions
    you got to ask questions to find out what's out there

    "If you are looking for the word Dispensation you will not find it but you will find the concept."

    The concept was that God changes the rules for salvation every few generations?

    If that what you think Dispensationalist theology teaches you do not have a hint what it teaches.

    Dispensationalist theology first teaches that in every dispensation that God saves by grace. The different dispensation is God showing man the need for that grace in different ways so man is left without and excuse.

    I would think that if non-denoms believe their salvation isn't secure, and that tongues are for today, makes them not like Baptist in doctrine. Sounds to me more like Assembly of God. I am a Baptist, and I don't consider both of these points a gray area. I believe it is a marked difference. A person that thinks their salvation can be lost is partially motivated by fear. And when it comes to tongues, there are many cults that also speak in tongues.
