A dispensation is a period of time in the Bible during which God deals with humanity in a certain way. There are different dispensations, each with its own rules and regulations. The dispensation of law, for example, began with Moses and lasted until the coming of Christ. During this time, people were required to follow the law of Moses in order to be saved.<\/p>\n

The Bible uses the term “dispensation” to describe different periods of time, during which God has dealt with humanity in different ways. Each dispensation has its own unique purpose and set of rules.<\/p>\n

What are the 5 dispensations in the Bible? <\/h2>\n

A dispensation is a period of time in which God allows humanity to operate under different rules. The Bible lists six major dispensations: innocence (pre-Fall), conscience (post-Fall), human government, promise, law, and grace. Each dispensation has different requirements and different blessings. <\/p>\n

Under the dispensation of innocence, Adam was put on probation prior to the Fall of Man. If he had obeyed God, he would have remained in a state of innocence. But because he sinned, he introduced sin and death into the world. <\/p>\n
