Most Bible students acquainted with studying the Scriptures from a Dispensational viewpoint are familiar with a theological position commonly known as the "Acts 28" position. Those who hold this position believe that, at the moment of the Apostle Paul's third and final condemnation of Israel's unbelieving leaders, God completely changed His dealings with mankind. They maintain that a brand new, "heavenly hope" was initiated at that point and it was at that point God started the church of today, which is the Body of Christ. This doctrinal position is held by very well-studied individuals and the founders of this movement have exceedingly blessed the church (and this author) with a wealth of accurate Bible teaching. However, if this doctrine is true, it logically holds major ramifications.

In the attached study, we take a hard, focused look at Acts 28:28 to answer this basic question: Does it signal a change in God's dealing with mankind? Click here for a PDF of this study.
