God would not have commanded us to rightly divide the word of truth if the word of truth did not have natural or simple divisions. That 90% of all other versions change the word study and the phrase "rightly dividing the word of truth" means that someone doesn't want believers to do it. That majority of professing Christians are turned off by right division is proof that they have succeeded.In this study, we look into the Who, the What, and the Where in God's dealings in the whole Bible. The devil, when he tried to tempt Jesus in the wilderness used Bible doctrine against Jesus. It is important to be Biblical. It is important to be doctrinal. Those two, however, are not enough. We need to rightly divide the word of truth.

People who talk misquote Ephesians 2:10 and use it to try to prove that we need to work for our salvation many times do not understand Ephesians chapter 2 in its entirety. Many do not understand the book of Ephesians either! They hear some teacher say misquote Ephesians 2:10 and parrot it without studying the text! In this Bible Study, we look at three arguments that show that Ephesians 2:10 is talking about something else and that Salvation in our time is by grace through faith and that we do not need to do any good works.

It is not enough to be biblical. You have to rightly divide the word of truth. "Christians" go nuts when they hear us say that. Remember that when the devil tempted Jesus in the wilderness he used the Bible. All religions and cults have bible verses that they stand on but they do not arrive at the same conclusion.The next excuse is typically, "Well, it all depends on how man interprets it." Then what is the point of saying that the Bible is your final authority when really, the authority is your own interpretation or your own self? In this study we look at why right division was commanded to the Body of Christ only. We look at some examples showing that bible doctrines that are not applicable to our time become doctrines of devils when insisted or jammed into our dispensation. Finally, we look into a question that would serve as an example of the confusion that arise when one does not rightly divide the word of truth.

So you preach Jesus Christ. Big whoop. For anyone and everyone in this dispensation to be stablished, they need two things:1. Paul’s Gospel2. The Preaching of Jesus Christ According to the Revelation of the MysteryIf you don’t get the first, there’s no sense trying to get the second.If you get the first, praise God! If you get just any other preaching of Jesus Christ, then you also missed the second. It has to be according to the revelation of the mystery or you will be unstable!So many “christians” that I have talked to tell me that they get doubts about their faith even if they have professed to be saved longer than I have been alive. The answer is found here. If you are trusting on any gospel other than Paul’s, you definitely have a reason to doubt. If you’re mixing other gospels with Paul’s, you have a reason to doubt.If you believed in the correct gospel but sit under preaching of Christ any way else, other than according to the revelation of the mystery then you only listened to stories. Doctrine, though biblical for other dispensations, if misapplied to our dispensation is still the wrong. You will not be stable.

Spirits & Devils are concerned about doctrines. So should you. They care about messing your doctrines up even to the point of mixing up doctrines that are correct for other dispensations with our doctrine for our dispensation just to confuse you. The King James Bible have 55 instances where the word doctrine is found. The NKJV has 42. The NIV has 6. The CEV just gave up. They want to get rid of it if not water it down. Now that we've dug into the doctrine, the dispensations and the differences, we talk about the practical application in this Bible Study. The outline is simple. Because modern day "Christianity" have mixed messages, it only follows that the walk is confused, the motivation is all over the place and we don't even know what we're looking forward to. We as a heavenly people should set our affections on things above. I would love it if God would heal this land, this country and do wonderful things through it again but this is not what will happen. The bible says perilous times will come. The bible shows us that it will get worse. That's all the more reason why we need to look up and be excited about our catching away.

When we rightly divide the word of truth, then our eyes are opened to God's different dealing with different people in different times. Because of that, the new most logical question that arise is "The messages, promises, blessings, gospels that were operational in a different time, are they applicable to us in our time now?"Historical events and even Bible stories, open up to more than just that - stories. They start to uncover puzzle pieces that will only fit in one spot and no matter how much we try to jam it in to fit where we'd like it to, it won't. A famous preacher once said - "Doctrines misapplied to the wrong period and the wrong time of God's timeline becomes heresy."

This is Part 2 of the Dispensational Value of the Gospel of Christ. When one would ask why we go out of our way to lay ground work or foundation to explain the dispensation value of the Gospel of Christ, the answer is quite simple. People take the differences for granted. When "christians" or church people are faced with the differences between gospels, content of the messages, messengers/ministers then they are faced with a choice: "Do I believe what the Bible, rightly divided, says or do I just accept the propositions that mere spiritualization of doctrines and the many fallacies that they come with so long as they are given the balm of "loving one another"?There are differences in gospels and the devil wants to mix it together to confuse "christians" and he has raised his ministers to defend the confusion.

When we talk about The Gospel of Christ, it does us well to understand not only what is different about it from other gospels in the bible but also how and why. In the first part of this Bible study, we get another overview of the Bible Time line but from the point of view of how God deals with different people in different time.

After a few weeks of break due to some family & work tasks that we needed to take care of, we're back with a review of the different gospels in the Bible that we have discussed so far. Bear in mind that we have only given brief overviews of these gospels and, time permitting, we will go back to these and talk about these individually and in depth.The key take-aways that we would like to share with everyone in these bible studies are:There are many gospels in the bible. They are aimed at different groups of people and says different things.These are not the same.It would be harmful if churches and individuals approach their bibles without differentiating the gospels.Number 3 is where so called christian churches are in this time in history. Sensationalism is highly regarded in the churches and content and right division is held in a disparaging state of disregard.What about you, friend? Which gospel are you trusting on for your salvation?

When did the New Testament begin? Are we living in the New Testament right now? If you're one of those pseudo-christians who only care about emotions, entertainment, attendance and zero or status-quo bible study at all, then this is not for you.There are certain things that are supposed to happen in the New Testament that should make us wonder why they are not happening if we're there. If we're not in the NT, then when do these things happen and to whom do they pertain? Why is "Christianity" looking like a joke to the unregenerate? Because the saved do not study and rightly divide the bible and place us in areas and time lines where we shouldn't be. Then when things that the bible says should happen do not, we make God look like a liar.My Dad, Capt. Rey Simeon brings us the message in this live bible study done in Arcadia, CA.

The proponents of the teaching that says “Forgiveness of Sins Happened at the Cross” use 2 Corinthians 5:18-19. There is no verse that says that forgiveness of sins happened at the cross so they use a text about reconciliation and imputation and echo this teaching that is held by most denominations, the catholic church and even some cults - all of which do not rightly divide the word of truth. All the Pauline verses that expressly mentions the term “forgiveness or forgiven” show that forgiveness of sins happen when all the terms or components of Reconciliation, Imputation and Justification (among others) are met and that is, when one is saved.

There are exactly four pauline verses that uses the term "forgiveness of sins." All of them implies that forgiveness of sins is received upon one's belief in the gospel and not at the cross of calvary. That Christ died for our sins at the cross, there is no question. countless of verses prove that fact. Is His death, however, equal to forgiveness? Is there any verse that says that? Is there any verse that expressly says that forgiveness happened at the cross? Does this mean that even the unsaved have received forgiveness of sins?In this study, we tackle these questions and look at the problem of this teaching, the timeline of forgiveness of sins in our dispensation, and the significance of this study.

The Gospels of God, the Gospel of the Kingdom and the Gospel of Christ have different contents. Why is it important to know the difference? Although the Bible is written for us, not all of it is written or addressed to us. We need to know what gospel belongs to us. Mixing and matching just because you've heard from your preacher, who doesn't follow the command to study and rightly divide the bible, is hazardous to your life.In this study, we look at how the Gospel of God was added to the Gospel of the Kingdom after the cross. We see how both Peter and Paul preached the gospel of God but that is the extent of the similarities of their preaching. Beyond that, their messages are different.

In this bible study we try to answer this question:"Was our gospel preached immediately after the cross and during the early events in the book of Acts?"If it was, then per Mark 16 and Acts 2, water Baptism is required for the remission of sins.If it was, then per Mark 16 an d early Acts, there are signs (speaking in tongues, healing the sick, not being harmed by snakes, not being poisoned, etc) that follow those that believe.If it was, then the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to set up the literal, Earthly Kingdom is about to happen, per Joel and Acts 2. So why do we even bother with our earthly possessions? Let's just sell everything and give them to the Apostles.If it was, then you have yet to receive forgiveness of sins (Acts 3)!Right Division is really important Bible Study!Praise God we have forgiveness of sins now! We do not have to work for our Salvation. All we have to do is believe the Gospel given by the Apostle Paul!

You've heard it before. I've heard it before. "We're in the business of the Kingdom!" "We're Kingdom Builders!" Jesus came to setup a literal, earthly kingdom of priests - one which we, the Body of Christ, are not a part of.A deeper look into the gospel of the kingdom's timeline, preachers, audience, and content teaches us a few things:Our gospel is NOT THE SAME as the gospel of The kingdom. We cannot treat them as one and the same. We cannot mix components from both of them.Unlike the gospel of the kingdom, our gospel does not require us to do any work for us to manifest our faith.While the believers of the gospel of the kingdom are promised literal, earthly, physical and material blessings, we are not. We are already blessed with ALL spiritual blessings in heavenly places.

In this Bible Study we talk about a few helpful guidelines in studying the Bible. Then we answer the following questions:1. Is There only one gospel in the Bible?2. What're the other gospels in the Bible, if any?3. Why is it even important to tackle this topic?

Sometimes when we read the bible, we read a lot of our preconceived ideas, emotions, or traditions into it. This is why we tend to think that the Bible is all about us. In this study we have a quick overview of the whole bible rightly divided. We see what God's will is for you and me. We also see why Satan wants it all - both Heaven and Earth. He hates Israel because God gave the Earth to Israel and he hates the Body of Christ because God gave Heaven to us.

In this bible study, we talk about two of the most common points from Christians who do NOT rightly divide the word of truth:As we look back towards the cross, people in the Old Testament look forward to the cross.Abraham's salvation is the same as ours since he believed God and that was counted unto him for righteousness.Finally, we talk about why this study is relevant to us at all.
