Q342 : Another Chance for Salvation in the Millennium?

I have a question about dispensationalism. My understanding is that a person becomes "saved" if he or she accepts Jesus' death on the cross as payment for their sins. Jew, Gentile, etc. it doesn't matter - all are saved the same way in the present dispensation. Then why do the Jews (of the present time) who reject Christ now have another "chance" to be saved during the millennium? What audio or written material can you suggest for me to study in order to get a better understanding of dispensationalism.

A342 : by Tony Garland

I was not aware of the teaching that "Jews (of the present time) who reject Christ now have another chance to be saved during the millennium."

I certainly haven't taught that—nor am I aware of any teachers on our website — or mainstream dispensationalists — who teach such a view.

Mainstream dispensationalism has always taught there is one one way of salvationa in any age and that one's opportunity to respond in faith and obtain eternal life comes to a final end at death, "it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment" (Hebrews 9:27, NASB).

If Jews in this age were to live into the millennium (if Jesus came back "soon" and they survived the tribulation), then they would still have a chance to come to faith since while they remain alive. But I know nothing of any idea that any person could be saved—having a second chance—after having already died without exercising faith.

Regarding resources on dispensationalism, I can recommend:
