GOD THE FATHER’S ETERNAL COMPREHENSIVE PERFECT GRACE PROTOCOL DISPENSATIONAL PLAN OF THE AGES FOR THE MAXIMUM GLORY OF HIS SON, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (Part-I)

“Having made known unto us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He hath purposed in Himself That in the dispensation of the fullness of times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in Him:” Ephesians 1:9, 10 KJAV

"The impossible task of circumscribing the glories of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ stems from the infinity of His person and the omnipotence and omniscience of all His works. From Genesis to Revelation Jesus Christ is the most important theme of the Bible and almost every page is related in some way to either His person or work. Christianity is Jesus Christ. No other subject is given more complete revelation and yet the half has not been told. No other theme is more intimately related to the creation of the natural world. For ‘all things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made’ (John 1:3). The glories of the natural world therefore declare the power and Godhead of Jesus Christ as the Son of God.” Dr. John F. Walvoord, Jesus Christ Our Lord (1969)

God is infinite and therefore is not limited to time and space. He is immutable and therefore not subject to change. There is only one true and living God (cf. Deut. 6:4). The Trinity of God is His tri-personal existence as Father, Son, and Spirit (cf. Isa. 48:16; 61:1 with Matt. 28:19; II Cor. 13:14).

In the dispensation of the Triune Godhead (i.e. pre-creation, Alpha—John 1:1, 2), the Father, the Son, and the Spirit held the eternal council of glorification. The Father introduced His eternal plan of the ages (cf. Ps. 33:11; Prov. 19:21 with Isa. 40:13, 14). His plan was centered in giving new glory to His eternal Beloved Son; by means of the Son taking upon Himself a finite nature through hypostatic union (cf. Matt. 1:23 with Heb. 10:5) and bringing many finite sons to glory (cf. Heb. 2:9-18). This plan allowed the infinite glorified person of the Son to receive finite glory and through this finite glory to glorify the Father (cf. John 17:3-6, 10). The Son agreed to His part in the Father’s plan; and an eternal covenant of glorification was made between the two of them (cf. Heb. 13:20, 21). The Spirit certified the plan and became its eternal seal (cf. Eph. 1:13).

In the dispensation of the Fullness of Times the Father will bring all things in heaven and earth together in Christ! The Son will receive maximum finite glory; and He will use this finite glory to glorify the Father for designing such a wonderful and perfect plan. Christ is the plan’s Alpha and Omega (cf. Rev. 1:8).

“Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” Isaiah 46:9, 10 KJAV

 “The general Doctrine of the Plan of God delineates background information which is necessary for answering questions and understanding why God has created and allowed the universe to exist as it is. It describes the purpose of God as: His resolve to manifest the perfection of the unity of His attributes. This resolve will be referred to as the ‘Eternal Resolution.’ ... The Eternal Resolution includes the divine option for the manifestation of His attributes to be achieved through a creation-revelation. This means that God did not create because He was lonely or bored. He created for the purpose of manifesting the Truth about Who and What He is.” Dr. Ron Killingsworth, The Plan of God (nd)

Chronological time began in the dispensation of the Triune Godhead with the issuance of the Father’s divine decree. His divine decree was the proclamation of His decretive will and covered every issue that would occur throughout the creative ages to come. It was the Father’s eternal resolution to manifest the divine attributes of God through creation for the ultimate glorification of God.
