Dispensational Hermeneutics J Michael Lester

Consider this book your Dispensationalism 101 resource. This book starts assuming readers have had no exposure to dispensational theology and walks them through the process of understanding the Scriptures from this perspective. Inside, readers will learn a brief historical overview of dispensationalism and its thoughts embedded in the early church. Significant terms are defined. Readers will not only know what the dispensations are, but also how to find these dispensational shifts in the text itself. Along the way, you will be able to answer why some elements are no longer applicable and others seem to carryover into the New Testament day. Finally, you'll be able to understand the difference between Dispensational Theology and Covenant Theology and differences within each in the areas of hermeneutics, the church, salvation, end times, and the nation of Israel.
