2020-09-2737 minMid Cities OPCDispensationalism (Selected Scriptures)On Sunday, September 27, 2020, Rev. Robert Mossotti continued the introduction to his Sunday School series on Dispensationalism.
Dispensationalism teaches that the Old Testament prophets must be taken literally; otherwise, the interpreter must allegorize the Scriptures, which is characteristic of liberal theology.

Hosea 6:1,2 Israel = Christ & the church in him; Hosea 11:1 (cf. Matt. 2:15) The Exodus applied to Christ's childhood experience.

First Peter was written to Christians living in an environment such as ours. It was written to remind Christians who they are, and what they must do to remain who they are in a world filled with trials, with constant temptations to ungodliness, and to conformity to this present evil age.
