So- the name of the game was to figure out 1. The “dispensational” part means that God deals with his people differently in different “dispensations,” defined as: “a period of time during which man is tested in respect of obedience to some specific revelation of the will of God.” So “Premillennial” means that Jesus would return “pre” or “before” the suggested Millennium.

The 19th century saw a preponderance of “Post-Millennial’ Christians- that is, the church would usher in the 1,000-year period, and then Jesus would return “post” or “after” the millennium. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years.”.

Lee in the confederacy and then later deserted the Confederacy. He has something of a curious story- he claimed to have fought alongside Robert E. Born in 1843, he was a veteran of the Civil War and would become a preacher and author based in both Texas and Massachusetts. We have mentioned him before on the show. Today, the 19th of August, is the birthday of Cyrus Ingerson Scofield- better known as C.I.

Welcome to the Christian History Almanac brought to you by 1517 at I’m Dan van Voorhis. If sexy romance is Usher’s specialty, then a personal fragrance bearing his name just might appeal to anyone hoping to make his or her conquest.*** This is a rough transcript of today’s show *** The Usher collection includes the men’s fragrances Usher and UR, women’s versions of Usher and UR, and the women’s perfume VIP.

He has racked up numerous Billboard and Grammy awards for his albums and hit singles, all of which showcase his polished, soulful vocal style and seductive lyrics. Usher (born Usher Terry Raymond IV) released his first album in 1994, when he was just 15 years old, and within a few years he established himself as a major R & B star.
