There are teachings that have been associated with Dispensationalism that go far beyond that which God intended according to the plain teaching of scripture. This Hyper or Ultra-Dispensational teaching is nothing more than a satanic attempt to steal the word of God from the hearts and minds of God's people all across the world, and to shed a negative light on the only proper interpretation of Scripture by polluting the river from which it flows. I am fully persuaded that Dispensation Truth is exactly what it says: Truth. And that, once learned, is the only system of biblical interpretation that allows the individual to interpret the scriptures without the need of purchasing expensive commentaries, or placing undue dependence on a myriad of literature that only seeks to make its authors filthy lucre; and to seeks ultimately to replace the Holy Spirit as the final authority in biblical interpretation. Personally, I am thankful for men of God such as Bro. Ironside who, by the leading of the Spirit of God, sounded forth the trumpet and warned God's people not to fall prey to satan's devices as did Eve by subtlety.

"Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth" (2 Tim. 2:15). PAUL'S exhortation to the younger preacher, Timothy, has come home to many with great power in recent years. As a result, there has been a return to more ancient methods of Bible study, which had been largely neglected during the centuries of the Church's drift from apostolic testimony. Augustine's words have had a re-affirmation: "Distinguish the ages, and the Scriptures are plain." And so there has been great emphasis put in many quarters, and rightly so, upon the study of what is commonly known as "dispensational" truth. This line of teaching, if kept within Scriptural bounds, cannot but prove a great blessing to the humble student of the Word of God who desires to know His will or plan in His dealings with men from creation to the coming glory [. . .] It is right here then that we need to be careful, and not read into the Word of God ideas out of our own minds which are not really there. Through doing this, some have ignored dispensational truth altogether. Others have swung to an ultra-dispensationalism which is most pernicious in its effect upon one's own soul and upon testimony for God generally." –Harry A. Ironside, Wrongly Dividing The Word Of Truth

Without reservation, I wholly recommend this book to all God's people so that they may without hesitation read and believe the entirety of God's word. It has been the experience of this writer that many a great and precious promises have been stolen from the clutches of God's people through Hyper or Ultra-Dispensational teaching. And it is why that without reservation I can whole heartedly recommend this book to all God's people.
