The Rapture, the Revelation, the Bell and the Egg - Pete Garcia - http://www.omegaletter.com/articles/articles.asp?ArticleID=8340
However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. From the very beginning, mankind has been in a continuing series of resets. Think of these resets as 'revolutions' in that they transform the way man operates and functions here on earth. We Dispensationalists liken these 'revolutions' to dispensations as far as naming-conventions go, but what will be addressed here, goes with, and within what we would classify in biblical terms, as a dispensation.
There is not the room for it in this brief, but for an in-depth explanation of what constitutes Dispensationalism and its sine qua non, see here. But in summarised form, the late Dr. Charles Ryrie describes it as "Dispensationalism views the world as a household run by God. In His household world God is dispensing or administering its affairs according to His own will and in various stages of revelation in the passage of time. These various stages mark off the distinguishably different economies in the outworking of His total purpose, and these different economies constitute the dispensations. The understanding of God's differing economies is essential to a proper interpretation of His revelation within those various economies.
