The Word of God
Yes brothers
The word of God is for us but not all of it is written to us. This takes study and rightly dividing the word of truth. Some think that I should not encourage people to do a dispensational study and application of Scriptures. But I am sorry I must obey God rather than men (Stephanos). I know many don't agree with a dispensational style of Study. but this does not mean that it is wrong and I should stop encouraging it. as a matter of fact more truth can be gained by rightly dividing the word than not. what are your opinions as to these things? |

I believe we must rightly divide the word(2 Tim 2:15) and if we don't we're going to get in some trouble when we come to verses like...
Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins," That verse obviously applies to someone in the Tribulation. |

Stephanos told me not to tell people that not all the scriptures are for them today.
So Stephanos, I want you to give me $10,000 and your house for the summer. you must comply if you believe all scriputres are for you. I quote Mt 5:42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away. You are under divine command to give me what I ask and to let me borrow your house for the summer. you cannot refuse me or you will suffer judgement of the Lord. there it is if you believe all scriptures are for you today you must comply. If you say that this does not apply to you today you have just performed a dispensational division. and that would make you a dispensationalist. A dispensationalist is one who studies his Bible and makes distinction between what can be applicable today and what would be applicable in the future and what was in the past. if you cannot see that, then I await your reply on where to send the money and to get my dates to borrow your house.

If there's anything left, I could use an SUV and some gas money!

now you've got it. if that were for Christians today we or an unsaved person could walk up to any Christian ask for money or anththing. or even ask to borrow anything they wanted and we would have to give it to them.

You can't get away from dispensatianolism, even the Bible itself in the AV is laid out Premillenialy. |

they could also sell their sacrifical animals and their offerings if they can't get to the Temple as required 7times a year, and buy strong drink and meats and eat it where they are. found in Duet.

If you study the word based on dispensations you could very well miss a blessing from God by not claiming a truth meant for us "believers" by faith. If the word of God, Old Testament and New Testament, says a "universal truth" (meant for all of the Lord's people) I'm going to believe it.
Simple faith, needed to live mightily for God, shouldn't be educated away. |

Please, can someone explain to me the connection of "rightly dividing the word of truth" to dispensational study and application of Scriptures. I can see a connection in being a type of study which means you would be dividing Scripture, but I don't see in my Bible where we are to divide it a certain way. I feel a strong pull in my spirit about this, because only our Father knows what He meant by "rightly." It isn't for us to tell others to do things a certain way, just do it.
The simple child would know not a certain way to study, he would just read and apply and pray. Jesus says to be like a child. (Not very educated.) |

I too believe in Rightly Dividing the Bible, that is the only way the Bible makes sense.
I do not believe that God gave us a Bible that you need 4 yrs of Bible college to make the verses "fit" to whatever your particular denomination believes. He gave us a Bible that anyone could understand and grow in knowledge and grace. Since I learned to unlearn many things and started rightly dividing my KJB, I have had a LOT more peace and understanding on exactly how to live to please God today and how to understand my Bible. |
