	Dispensation - LoveToKnow 1911
		The dispensing power, like the legislative authority, was formerly invested in general councils and even in provincial synods; but in the West, with the gradual centralization of authority at Rome, it became ultimately vested in the pope as the supreme lawgiver of the Church.
		Dispensations to hold benefices in plurality formed, with provisions and the papal claim to the right of direct appointment, a powerful means for extending the patronage of the Holy See and therefore its hold over the clergy, and from the 13th century onwards this abuse assumed vast proportions (Hinschius iii.
		dispensations, andc., " for causes not being contrary or repugnant to the Holy Scriptures and laws of God," should be vested in the archbishop of Canterbury for the time being, who at his own discretion was to issue such dispensations, andc., under his seal, to the king and his subjects.

	Enjoy The Bible MinistriesTHE DISPENSATION OF OF THE GRACE OF GOD
		This dispensation, or program, which God is now conducting is a new program and it is different from His program with the nation of Israel.
		In this present dispensation, God's program with Israel is set aside and remains temporarily in abeyance, and the "time past" status of Israel being "nigh" to God and the Gentiles being "far off", no longer exists.
		That this present dispensation of Gentile grace has not always been in effect, is evident from what the apostle Paul declares in Ephesians 2:11 12.

	Q22 : The Beginning of the Present Dispensation
		The "dispensation of God’s grace" is the stewardship given to those in the Church to preach the "gospel of grace".

		The “dispensation of the grace of God” given to Paul in Ephesians 3:2 does not primarily concern what must be preached or believed to be saved, but the new spiritual organism which the redeemed are saved into-the body of Christ.

	What is a Dispensation?
		Any seeming disunity in the dispensational scheme is superficial, and in reality one feels that the much publicized supposed conflicts of dispensationalism exist in the minds of the covenant theologians and are aggravated by their own unwarranted and forced unified approach to the Scriptures.
		The dispensational scheme has two perspectives: a cross-sectional aspect (which is sometimes misconstrued as cycles but which is in reality a spiral) and a longitudinal aspect (which emphasizes the unfolding progress of revelation and continuing principles throughout the ages of the dispensations).
		And it is this very consistency -- the strength of dispensational interpretation -- that seems to irk the nondispensationalist and becomes the object of his ridicule.[44] To be sure, literal/historical/grammatical interpretation is not the sole possession or practice of dispensationalists, but the consistent use of it in all areas of biblical interpretation is..

		The Word dispensation is the translation of the Greek oikonomia, a word that has become well known in the anglicized form ECONOMY.

		The office of Dispensational Truth is to decide whether any particular doctrine-be it command, promise, calling or prophecy-does or does not pertain to any particular individual or company, and the recognition of these varying dispensations is therefore essential if we would walk worthy of our calling, and preach the truth for the present time.

	Historical View Of The Dispensation - Sun Myung Moon
		God's dispensation is always started in one local area, but with a universal concept which is directed at bringing these into one culminating universal dispensation.
		History is always moving toward one central line of fulfillment, in a process similar to the development of a central government; instead of doing it all at once God starts out by organizing a family, tribe, village, town, then country, state and finally the federal government.
		It is because God's purpose of dispensation is for the whole world, and when it is culminated both of those worlds must end in order for one world of God to be formed.
