[SR: 2576015], Paperback, [EAN: 9781331787587], Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Forgotten Books, Excerpt from Familiar Survey of the Old and New Covenants: Including a Summary View of the Patriarchal and Levitical DispensationsThe subject is unfolded and illustrated in the Various statements and reasonings of the sacred writers, who employ a variety of figures taken from the things Of this life, to elucidate its nature and its Object. But this use Of figurative language, as a medium of illustra tion, is quite a different thing from the use of it literally, to describe the dispensation of mercy. The latter has sometimes led to the use of phraseology, which is more adapted to a series of earthly transactions, than to the sovereign interposition of Heaven for the salvation of men. This, instead of elucidating the subject, produces confused, as well as low ideas Of its spirit and design. The mind gets too much occupied with the nature of a human paction, and with the many designations and relative interests connected with such a compact, - the Simplicity with which the Scriptures exhibit the plan of redemption is greatly Overlooked, and the progress of the learner in Scriptural knowledge, instead of being facilitated, is exceedingly retarded.In strict propriety, there has been but one grand dispensation of grace Since the entrance of sin. This was revealed in different portions, and was connected with different subordinate dispensations but all those portions were parts Of one stupendous whole, and all those dispensations were but the scaffolding of the building. And now that Christ has come, the one great plan of redemption has been fully revealed in the new and everlasting covenant, which has been ratified by his precious blood, and the promises of which, are now in the course of fulfilment through his heavenly ministrations.
