Premillennialism
The
view that the rapture and Christ's second coming will both
occur prior to his Millennial (literal 1,000-year) reign.
Dispensationalism
The
7 dispensations are not ways of salvation, but manners in
which God relates to man.
Innocence
(Genesis 1:1 3:7), Conscience (Genesis 3:8, 8:22), Human
Government (Genesis 9:1 11:32), Promise (Genesis 12:1
Exodus 19:25), Law (Exodus 20:1 Acts 2:4), Grace (Acts
2:4 Revelation 20:3), Millennial Kingdom (Revelation 20:4
20:6).
Replacement
Theology
Adherents
of Replacement Theology believe that the Jews are no longer
God's chosen people and God does not have specific future
plans for the nation of Israel. There
are really only two views, either the Church is a continuation
of Israel (Replacement Theology), or the Church is totally
different and distinct from Israel (Dispensationalism /
Premillennialism).
Practical
Theology
The
doctrine of the Christian life.
Liberation
Theology
Seen
to be the false doctrine of a humanist viewpoint dressed up in
theological terms.
Covenant
Theology
Believes
that there is and has always been only one people of God.
Open
Theism
An
attempt to explain the foreknowledge of God in relationship to
the free will of man.
Neo-orthodoxy
Neo-orthodoxy
is a quite broad term, but it is mostly used in the sense of
modern contemporary theology or liberal theology
Predestination
God
predestines who will be saved, and we must choose Christ in
order to be saved. Both facts are equally true.
Tribulation
A
future 7-year period of time when God will finish His
punishment of national Israel and at the same time judge
the unbelieving world.
Rapture
The
event in which God removes all believers from the earth in
order to make way for His righteous judgment to be poured out
on the earth during the Tribulation period.
The
Second Coming
The
return of Christ to the earth to bring the Tribulation to an
end and to defeat the antichrist.
