A Comparison Of Dispensationalism And Covenant Theology
Whether it is realized or not, every person has a system of theology. It may be a highly developed one, or it may be a very simplistic one. It may be well formulated with a careful and purposeful consistency, or it may be just a few convictions about several individual doctrines with no overall relationship to one another or concern for a harmony of the whole. Two of the strongest systems of our day are know as Dispensationalism and Covenant Theology. Throughout this century they have been challenging one another for consideration in the minds of Christians. In this present work Richard P. Belcher seeks in the first two chapters to state in an objective manner the convictions of both systems. In the final chapter he compares the two in important areas of thinking. In the conclusion he give instruction for a Christian to consider as he seeks build a system of theology, or as he tries to understand which system of theology is really Scriptural.

Fantastic little book laying out the clear differences between Dispensationalism and Covenantal theology. I thought that Belcher handled the topic very well and with much grace. His introduction is saturated with love and grace, which is such an encouragement. Andrew Howard
I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants a quick, honest, BIBLICAL, and grace filled comparison of dispensation and covenant theology.
