A thoughtful and concise look at dispensationalism and a serious examination of the common ground found with covenant theology. Written out of the desire to foster fellowship between the two camps, this classic text, now in its second edition, provides an informed and balanced perspective.

Publisher's Description

Many books have been written to show that dispensationalism is either right or wrong. In this book the author takes a different approach. Believing that dialogue is possible between dispensationalists and covenant theologians (of which he is one), he examines dispensationalism in detail and notes significant developments toward greater agreement between the two positions.

This second edition adds a postscript in which Poythress acknowledges further developments in modified dispensationalism and clarifies three points in response to feedback from dispensational readers.
