Summary

Many prophetic theologians believe the “Church Age” is almost over. It was a mystery to the early church and it remains a mystery to most Christians today. Will this 2,000 year interlude result in the soon return of Jesus Christ? When exactly are the 2,000 years up? Leave it to Gary Stearman and Bible scholar-extraordinaire, Dr. Ken Johnson, to unravel the ramifications of living in the final moments of this mysterious time period, described cryptically in the book of Zechariah. The biblical nuggets come fast and furious as Gary and Ken explore the writings of the ancient church fathers in the book of Barnabas and other relatively unknown writings. Ken’s unique view on the rapture, the 6 day, 6,000 year plan and many other little-known prophecies will leave you wanting more!

0:00.0	You've heard about the church age, Dr. Ken Johnson,
0:30.9	and believe me, he's an expert on the church age, and he's written a lot of books about it.
0:36.1	Ken, good to have you back on Prophecy Watchers. The Church Age and he's written a lot of books about it. Ken, good to have you back on prophecy watchers. The Church Age, you know, I tell people I'm a dispensationalist and

0:55.6	He said, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. He said in 1st Corinthians 9,
1:02.2	meaning a system of management, a system of oversight, it has certain rules, it has goals,
1:09.8	it has applications. So we live within a system,
1:15.6	if you will, in the church age. And we have here, what, six of your 24 books, which we're
1:23.6	going to talk about today in addition to a videotape.
1:33.9	And let's just start with this book, ancient epistles of Timothy and Titus.
1:36.9	Timothy and Titus were both preachers.
1:43.7	And Paul wrote to them and said, now you should do this, you should do this, this is the way your ministry should go.
1:50.6	He had a very definite idea about what the church age was to do.
1:52.5	Yeah, absolutely.
1:57.7	The mosaic law was given to the Jews for a time.
2:01.6	He mentions in Galatians that it was until the time of the Messiah when he would change things. So we have a church age and we see not just two dispensations,
2:07.6	but actually the church fathers mentioned that there are many. There's pre-flod, post-flod,
2:12.6	the mosaic age, the church age and then the millennial age, things would be different.
2:19.1	Moral law is always the same, but sometimes things are different in the way God wants to do
