Hi to all , and is there a difference between a Dispensation and a Covenant ??

OIKONOMIA/DISPENSATION , does not means administration, or ecomony or dispensing .

If you look in VINE'S ;

OIKOS , means House .

NOMOS , means Law .

Then , Dispensation means House Law , and the Laws of the House are just some of them :

#1 , Eternal life
#2 , Salvation by Grace
#3 , Departure /Rapture
#4 ,Chosen " in Christ " before the Overthrow of the world
#5 , Justification
#6 , The Ministry of Reconciliation
#7 , Redemption
#8 , Given a New Nature
#9 , Given the Revelation of the Mystery
#10 , PLACED into the Body of Christ
#11 , Given the ONE Baptism

Just to mention a few that Paul has written about


DIATHEKE/COVENANT , can be translated by the following English words;
#1 , Contract
#2 , Aggreement
#3 , Will
#4 , A Promise

Covenants are either Conditional or Unconditional and the remaining Covenants are ALL UN-conditional and God will keep His Promises .

There are yet 4 Covenants that are yet to be put into operation .

#1 , The Abrahamic is impleminted during the Mellinniem
#2 , The Palestinian is impleminted during the Mellinniem
#3 , The Davidic is impleminited during the Mellinnium
#4 , The New Covenant is impleminted at the BEGINNING of the Millennium ,

You can not have one in Operation WITHOUT THE OTHER THREE ., as they all go Together .

The New Covenant incluses '

#1 , All Israel regathered , in verse Ezek 36:24
#2 , Baptized/Cleansed , v 24
#3 , Cleanse from Idols
#4 , Given a New Heart , verse 26
#5 , And given a New Spirit
#6 , Given New Statures and Judgments to Obey .

Another big difference is that Israel's HOPE is the earth and they will be a Kingdom of Priests and Kings , Rev 1:6 and Ex 19:6 and GENTILES never MIX Jews and Gentiles not can anyone provide a verse !!

The Body of Christ hope is Heavenlies and that is where we are seated NOW , Eph 1:3

The New Covenant is NOT THE SAME as Eph 2:8 , Saved by Grace , dan p

This was already explained to you a few days ago.

I think you are spamming this board...

So , you want me to leave ??

Is that it ??

It seems to me that you all were dead in the water , until I pushed the right button , so report me as I , probably get a notice to Quit & Desist , so what is new ??

A particular dispensation may have a covenant within but the difference remains the same. Our dispensation today contains no covenant as applied to us.. The new covenant is made with Israel and the house of Judah and has conditions that are not seen today. Jeremiah 31:31.

Like NSB said.

The icing on the cake:
***Eph 2:8-19
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works (LAW IS GONE), lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13 But ....now (63 AD) in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 For he is our peace, who hath made both (Jew and Gentile) one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make (create) in himself of twain (Jew and Gentile) ..one... new ...man (not a bride either), so making peace;
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:
17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
19 Now (63AD) therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

That was written in 63 AD. Notice the verb tenses and the change in relationship between the Jew and Gentile. Israel is not "first" for the time being until our calling is manifested to the Heaven far above all. We are not "raptured". Colossians 3:4.
Our dispensation is a "gap filler". The Parable of the Patch.
***2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
