God's Plan for the Ages - Dispensations (2014)

This message is from the 2021 Chafer Pastors' Conference.

How many judgments are there in Scripture? Listen to this lesson to learn the difference between the Judgment Seat of Christ for believers and the Great White Throne Judgment for unbelievers. Understand that the Judgment Seat of Christ is designed for believers to determine rewards and not their eternal destiny. Learn about the four resurrections and the sheep and goat judgment. Come to understand that the issue is the standard of God's righteousness and that man can never measure up to that. God, in His grace, imputes His righteousness to those who believe in His Son, Jesus Christ. The question all of us must ask is if we are ready for God's judgment?

What are your predictions for the coming year? Write them down and read them a few years later and laugh. That’s because they’re only guesses. Listen to this lesson to find out actual events that will happen when Christ returns to this earth to reign for a thousand years. See how there will be perfect environment, perfect justice, and world peace. Learn that many of the devastating changes that occurred when Adam fell will be reversed. and people from nations all over the earth will come to Jerusalem to worship God. Understand the role of the Holy Spirit during this time and the purpose of animal sacrifices.

Do you always keep your promises? It's hard, isn't it? Listen to this lesson to learn that God is the only perfect promise keeper. What He says, He will do. Learn about the covenants God made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. See how some of the provisions in them will not be fulfilled until the future, earthly Millennial Kingdom that lasts 1,000 years. Get a better understanding of the borders of the land promised to the Jews, much of which they have been waiting thousands of years to possess. As a Church Age believer, take time to study and to memorize the many promises you can rely on when trouble comes into your life.

Frog-like demons. Devastating earthquakes. Seas turned to blood. Are these fantasy scenes from horror movies? Listen to this lesson to learn that instead of them being the product of someone's imagination, they are actual events in a Biblical description of a future seven-year period called the Tribulation. See that this time is broken into two three-and-a-half year periods when a series of three successive judgments will be unleashed on the earth, including the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Hear a vivid, blow-by-blow description of the major players and events which culminate in fierce battles, ending with the campaign of Armageddon where the entire world attempts to destroy Israel. Find out about Jesus Christ's triumphant return to earth to rescue the Jews. Gain comfort from knowing that no matter how bad things seem, we can have confidence knowing that God is always in control.
