Résumé : |
Many books have been written to show that dispensationalism is either right or wrong. In this book Vern S. Poythress takes a different approach. Believing that dialogue is possible between dispensational-ists 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. |
