Reviews

[Maria Sprunger · Rating 2 out of 5]

Very interesting but arguments are difficult to read and is a difficult and *boring* book to read in my personal opinion. I personally could not finish it but the history it provided on the church was well written.

Really good overview of kingdoms and covenants. Pretty simple terms so anyone could read it, but does into great depth and shows the story throughout the Bible

[Jeff · Rating 4 out of 5]

As with all books by J. Dwight Pentecost, this is an excellent book )although it is a bit dry when reading straight though). This book, along with "The Greatness of the Kingdom" by Alva McClain, provide a framework for understanding the Bible in it's entirety.
Dr. Pentecost's organization of the material as well as his Appendix makes this an extremely valuable reference book for accurate Biblical interpretation.

[Kevin Cullis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Probably THE most important book for Christians to read and understand an overview of God's Plan for everyone. Failure to understand dispensations AND the context of the Abrahamic, Palestinian, Davidic, and New Covenants causes errors in our day-to-day decisions and efforts.
