Matthew 28

To Stephen outside Jerusalem Acts 7:55 .

To John on Patmos Revelation 1:10-19 .

Go

With the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ begins the "dispensation of the grace of God" Ephesians 3:2, which is defined as "his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus"; and, "the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:7-9, under grace God freely gives to the believing sinner eternal life Romans 6:23 accounts to him a perfect righteousness ; Romans 3:21 Romans 3:22 ; Romans 4:4 Romans 4:5 and accords to him a perfect position Ephesians 1:6

The predicted results of this sixth testing of man are

(1) the salvation of all who believe Acts 16:31 .

(2) judgment upon an unbelieving world and an apostate church. Matthew 25:31-46 ; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10 ; 1 Peter 4:17 1 Peter 4:18 ; Revelation 3:15 Revelation 3:16 .

(1) Man's state at the beginning of the dispensation of Grace Romans 3:19 ; Galatians 3:22 ; Ephesians 2:11 Ephesians 2:12 .

(2) Man's responsibility under grace John 1:11 John 1:12 ; 3:36 ; John 6:28 John 6:29 .

(3) His predicted failure Matthew 24:37-39 ; Luke 18:8 ; 19:12-14 .

(4) The judgment 2 Thessalonians 2:7-12 .

Name

The word is in the singular, the "name," not names. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the final name of the one true God. It affirms:

(1) That God is one.

(2) That He subsists in a personality which is threefold, indicated by relationship as Father and Son; by a mode of being as Spirit; and by the different parts taken by the Godhead in manifestation and in the work of redemption, e.g. John 3:5 John 3:6 (Spirit), John 3:16 John 3:17 (Father and Son). In ; Matthew 3:16 Matthew 3:17 ; Mark 1:10 Mark 1:11 ; Luke 3:21 Luke 3:22 the three persons are in manifestation together.

(3) The conjunction in one name of the Three affirms equality and oneness of substance. See O.T. Names of God:
