WELCOME TO OLISPM
Welcome to On-line International School of Practical Ministry, hereinafter referred to as (OLISPM). We welcome you to an independent, non-denominational, non-Charismatic website whose desire it is to provide information to communicators -- Pastor-Teachers, Evangelists, and Teachers -- of God's holy Word.

DISPENSATIONAL HERMENEUTIC
OLISPM is committed to the Pauline dispensational hermeneutic (not hyper-dispensationalism) as originally held by John Darby, W.I. Scofield, and Lewis Sperry Chafer. Dispensationalism as a biblical hermeneutic originated with the Apostle Paul, not John Darby, hence, Pauline Dispensationalism. The clearest writing on Pauline Dispensationalism is set forth by Miles Stanford in his booklet titled Pauline Dispenationalism.

PRETRIBULATIONAL, PREMILLENNIAL
OLISPM is eschatologically committed to the pretribulational, premillennial return of Jesus Christ, first in the air at the occasion of the rapture, and then to earth at His second coming. No part of the Church will go through the Tribulation. Salvation is the only criteria for removal from planet earth at the rapture.

ETERNAL SECURITY OF THE BELIEVER
OLISPM is committed to the doctrine of the eternal security of the believer, also referred to as "once-saved always-saved."
