What does the SCOFIELD Restorationism is the belief
of some Christians in a large
scale end times conversion of
Jews to Christianity.
Dispensational Conservative
Christian groups reject
supersessionism and hold that
at a future time God will
return his focus to the Jewish
nation, whence a national
conversion will take place
where all or almost all Jews
will miraculously convert to
Christianity, citing the book
of Romans chapter 11 and verse
26 which literally says:
And so all Israel shall be
saved: as it is written, There
shall come out of Sion the
Deliverer, and shall turn away
ungodliness from Jacob: (KJV)
SSB
Many also believe that these
are either the literal or
symbolic number of Jews spoken
of as the 144 000 from the
tribes of Israel in the Book
of Revelation. Such ideas are
often used in support of
Christian Zionism.
Others dispensationalists hold
that it does not say every
Israelite shall be saved (in
Romans 11:26); the nation as a
whole will be saved, just like
the nation as a whole
committed the unpardonable
sin. It will still be up to
individuals to accept the
Gospel of the Kingdom or
reject it, but the nation as a
whole will be blessed because
of its leadership. This
happened several times in the
Old Testament: when Israel had
a good king, it was blessed;
when evil kings ruled over
Israel and promoted idolatry,
the nation was cursed and
foreign invaders attacked
them. In the future, all
Israel will be saved from
these curses and foreign
invaders.

The energetic efforts of C. I. Scofield and his associates introduced dispensationalism to a wider audience in America and bestowed a measure of respectability through his Scofield Reference Bible. The publication of the Scofield Reference Bible in 1909 by the Oxford University Press was something of an innovative literary coup for the movement, since for the first time, overtly dispensationalist notes were added to the pages of the biblical text. The Scofield Reference Bible became the leading bible used by independent Evangelicals and Fundamentalists in the U.S. for the next sixty years. Lewis Sperry Chafer (1871–1952), strongly influenced by C. I. Scofield, founded Dallas Theological Seminary in 1924, which has become the flagship of dispensationalism in America. |

In which branches of I use the word 'ordained' to
include all the various ranks
that a woman might attain
within a Christian church. I'm
hoping for an encyclopedic
answer that covers each of the
major branches of the
Christian Church. So the
headings in your answer might
be: Restorationism,
Anabaptism, Protestantism,
Anglicanism, Roman
Catholicism, Eastern
Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodox
and the Assyrian Church.

There is nothing in Christianity that says an ordained woman cannot enter into marriage: all Christian woman ministers are allowed to be married. Roman Catholic nuns cannot marry, but do you consider them ordained? Roman Catholic priests cannot marry either, although if a man is already married he may become as priest as I understand it. The bigger question is which branches of Christianity allow married women to be ordained...because some churches only allow men to be leaders. Several of the groups you list above have male-only priesthood, so male-only ordination. :-) |
