Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Three Dispensations of the Bible In the Bible there are three great divisions, each repro senting what is called a dispensation - the Patriarchah J ew ish, and Christian. God has never had to change, as some suppose, in order to have these different dispensations They, think because Paul said in Hebrews x1-ii., Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and forever, that if God gave. His people a law, and later changed that by giving another, that God has changed. They have the wrong con ception of God 1 They should think of God at the time or before man was made, here God, knowing how man would disobey Him, has in His own mind a scheme of redemption which would take man through three schools of training be fore man is as good as before the transgression. No-, w these schools being arranged already, just as soon as man sins [god puts him in the lower school, and when he has been cultured to the limit of this school, God does not have to change to put him into a higher school, for that had always been His purpose, and when he finishes his training in the Second school God does not have to change to put himhim to the university. This is the Way that God hath dealt with the human family, and when we speak of God taking man out of one school and placing him into a higher, not think that God has changed, but is only accomplishing the one purpose which Hethad in the begmning. The first school or dispensation lasted about twenty-five hundred years - from Adam to the giving of the law on Mount Sfanai (ex, 20th chapter.) During this dispensation books were scarce; in fact, the commandments of the Lord were not written at this time; We have no evidence that any part Of the Bible was written before Moses, which was about twenty-five hundred years after the beginning. So, remem ber, that while we live through this. Dispensation we _have no Bible, and all the commandments we have are oral. We know not just how many commandments God gave to those people, but we will give here all the commandments that were put in the Bible when it was written. We know not how Moses came to know what they were, but God made them known to him in a waybest suited to Himself.
