Continuity fuels the practicality of the Christian&#8217;s obedience to <em>all<\/em> the Word of God, not to just the New Testament and its truths. Without recognizing some degree of continuity, we end up denigrating biblical authority and contradicting <a href=\"http:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/nasb95\/2Ti3.16-17\">2 Timothy 3:16-17<\/a> outright.<\/p>\n<p>Erroneous theologies like replacement theology, dominion theology, deconstructionism, and theonomy defend their system on the basis of their style of continuity. Their view of continuity fails exegetically because they force identicalness upon biblical\u00a0distinctions. On the other side of a continuum of theological systems, some dispensational theologians also fail exegetically by forcing total discontinuity upon the text.
