Tony, I have not studied the NT in the dispensational view you had presented. It will take some more time for me to continue reading and praying for understanding before I am sure how to interpret the dispensations more scripturally. I appreciate your detailed explanation. I will be reading this thread a few more times through in the near future.
Thank you all.

Brother, if you study the OT and Matthew, and the commissions, both prior to the crucifixion and after the resurrection, and understand that we are a parentheses, and just let everything fall into place, you'll get the same joy from study that I do.

Paul was saved under, and the gospel preached to him was that of Matthew 24 and 28, Mark 16 and Acts 2, and the revelation of the mystery of the Body of Christ was given him by direct revelation of Jesus Christ. There's a lot of confusion over Ananais's statement to Paul of washing away his sins in water baptism, and it means just what it says. Paul was baptized under the apostolic water baptism of Acts 2 and when it says "for" the remission of sins it means just that: for the remission of sins.

Let Paul be what he claimed to be: a wise masterbuilder, let him be the prince of the apostles that Christ made him. Let him be the custodian of the 3 Biblical dispensations(not Scofield's "seven"): The transition from the kingdom gospel that was put on hold(Rom. 11), the gospel of grace through Christ crucified for all, Jew and Gentiles alike, and the first writer to the Jews in the Tribulation.

Grace and peace brother, it takes study, it won;t come all at once, but most of all belief.
