THE UNCENSORED TRUTH : BIBLICAL DOCTRINE FORUM
*The dispensation of the fulness of times is the last dispensation before the Second Coming of Christ. Man is reconciled to God in only one way: By God's grace through the work of Christ that was accomplished on the Cross and vindicated in His resurrection. Since the cross, man has been saved by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, in whom revelation and redemption have been consummated. Salvation has been and will continue to be available to everyone by God's grace through faith.*
