With the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ begins the "dispensation of the grace of God" (Ephesians 3:2); which is defined as "his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus"; and, "the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:7); under grace God freely gives to the believing sinner eternal life (Romans 6:23) accounts to him a perfect righteousness; (Romans 3:21); (Romans 3:22); (Romans 4:4); (Romans 4:5) and accords to him a perfect position (Ephesians 1:6).

The predicted results of this sixth testing of man are

(1) the salvation of all who believe (Acts 16:31).

(2) judgment upon an unbelieving world and an apostate church. (Matthew 25:31); (2 Thessalonians 1:7); (1 Peter 4:17); (1 Peter 4:18); (Revelation 3:15); (Revelation 3:16).

(1) Man's state at the beginning of the dispensation of Grace (Romans 3:19); (Galatians 3:22); (Ephesians 2:11); (Ephesians 2:12).

(2) Man's responsibility under grace (John 1:11); (John 1:12); (John 3:36); (John 6:28); (John 6:29).

(3) His predicted failure (Matthew 24:37); (Luke 18:8); (Luke 19:12).

(4) The judgment (2 Thessalonians 2:7).

Name

The word is in the singular, the "name," not names. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the final name of the one true God. It affirms:

(1) That God is one.

(2) That He subsists in a personality which is threefold, indicated by relationship as Father and Son; by a mode of being as Spirit; and by the different parts taken by the Godhead in manifestation and in the work of redemption, for example (John 3:5); (John 3:6); (Spirit), (John 3:16); (John 3:17) (Father and Son). In; (Matthew 3:16); (Matthew 3:17); (Mark 1:10); (Mark 1:11); (Luke 3:21); (Luke 3:22); the three persons are in manifestation together.

(3) The conjunction in one name of the Three affirms equality and oneness of substance.
