"THE BIBLE (DISPENSATIONALLY) RIGHTLY DIVIDED"

2 Tim 2:15 "STUDY,TO SHOW THYSELF APPROVED UNTO GOD. A WORKMAN,THAT NEEDETH NOT TO BE ASHAMED. RIGHTLY DIVIDING,THE WORD OF TRUTH".

The Gr word for "RIGHTLY DIVIDING",in the foregoing verse is ORTHOTOMEO, which literally translated means--"TO DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE THROUGH",'the different dispensational divisions of The Holy Bible,as set forth in the following verses:

Heb 1:1,2 "GOD,WHO AT SUNDRY TIMES,AND IN DIVERS MANNERS,SPAKE UNTO THE FATHERS BY THE PROPHETS. HATH IN THESE LAST DAYS,SPOKEN UNTO US,BY HIS SON".

God did,does,and will continue. To speak "AT DIFFERENT DISPENSATIONAL TIMES.,TO DIFFERENT DISPENSATIONAL BODIES,AND IN DECIDEDLY DIFFERENT DISPENSATIONAL MANNERS". And in the following verbal command set forth in 2 Tim 2:15,(ALL),are plainly told--"TO DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE BETWEEN,THOSE DIFFERENT TIMES--DIFFERENT BODIES,AND DIFFERENT DISPENSATIONAL PROGRAMS". How does one do so? In the following verse,the Apostle Paul tells (all) how to do so:

1 Cor 10:32 "GIVE NONE OFFENCE. NEITHER TO (THE JEWS). NOR TO (THE GENTILES).NOR TO "THE CHURCH),OF GOD".

There it is. The Apostle Paul has set forth the 3,uniquely different bodies,THAT (ALL) ARE "TO DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE BETWEEN",i.e. "THE JEWS"."THE GENTILES".and,"THE CHURCH",OF GOD!. If one does so,one will end up "AN UNASHAMED WORKMAN,APPROVED OF GOD". The opposite of course,is equally true. Failure to do so,and one will (invariably end up),"AN ASHAMED WORKMAN. DISAPPROVED OF GOD". Briefly stated. There can be no possible Godly merit derived from--"THE WRONGLY DIVIDING OF THE WORD OF TRUTH"!

Note: While it is scripturally correct to say--"THAT GOD NEVER CHANGES". And,"THAT CHRIST JESUS IS THE SAME. YESTERDAY,TODAY,AND FOREVER". To deny the foregoing truth of Heb 1:1,2;(i.e.that God did,does,and will continue,to deal with the 3,foregoing,uniquely different dispensational bodies. At 3 different dispensational times. And in 3 uniquely different,dispensational programs). Would be to deny that set forth,in all of the foregoing (related) verses. Havinç said that. Let us now proceed to (dispensationally) "DRAW A STRAIGHT lLINIE BETWEEN",the 3.uniquely different,dispensational bodies,of 1 Cor 10:32,as follows:

"THE SPOKEN WORD"

(To The Gentiles)

From Adam,in Eden,Gen Ch 1,until Moses,atop Mt Sinai,Ex Ch 19,God,The Father,1st Person Holy Trinity,(as The Invisible.Divine Spirit of Love),John 4:24,with 1 John 4:8),dealt solely with THE GENTILES, i.e.the Heb Goyim,or pagan nations),e.g.Gen 9:18,19, Gen 10:5,32,Inasmuch as THE JEWISH NATION OF ISRAEL,was not "ethnically created",until 2,500 years after Adam,at Mt Sinai,Ex 19:1-8.

That,was The Divine,God,A Spirit,THAT "MOVED UPON THE FACE OF THE WATERS",at Gen 1:2. He was,is,and ever will be,Eternally Invisible,1 Tim 1:17,Col 1:15.

It was,in His unique,co-equal,"role-form",of God,(AS) A Father,1st Person,Holy Trinity,THAT "IN THE BEGINNING",of Gen Ch 1,God,The Father,"PLANTED A GARDEN,EASTWARD IN EDEN",Gen 2:8. And in it,placed His "newly formed" HU-man,i.e.DIRT-man,Adam,and Eve,then veiled in the angelic form of MELCHIZEDEC "PRIEST OF THE MOST HIGH GOD",Gen 14:17-24. God,The Father,"literally walked with","talked with",and then passed on",to Adam,and Eve,THE SPOKEN WORD,OF GOD,e.g.Gen 1:28-31, Gen 2:16,17.

But,at "the fall" of Adam and Eve,of Gen Ch 3. A Righteous God,could no longer "walk with","talk with","nor continue,to personally deal with sinful Adam and Eve,nor any of their subsequent humanscendants,.Heb 7:26.

Yet,from the foregoing "fall" onward. God,The Father,did not cease to pass on HIS SPOKEN WORD,to "fallen" Adam,and Eve,e.g.Gen 2:8-19. Nor,to all of the human descendants of Adam and Eve. It was "from the fall onward",that God,The Father used His (chosen,saved patriarchs),to proclaim HIS SPOKEN WORD,e.g.2 Pet 1:21 as,"THUS SAITH THE LORD",e.g.Num 33:51-56, Lev Ch 20.etc. That,God,The Father continued to do,through His (chosen,saved,Prophets,Priests,Apostles,Disciples,etc),as we shall discover in the following portion of this study:

"THE CELESTIAL WORD"

(To The Gentiles)

Here it must be carefully noted,and as we shall later on discover,that. THE GENTILES HAD NO WRITTEN WORD,i.e.NO HOLY BIBLE,for the first 2,500 years of biblical history. That was until,(Jewish Moses),wrote the first five books of The Bible,called The Penteteuch. Composed of Genesis,Exodus,Leviticus,Numbers,and Deuteronomy.

But,God,The Father,(not willing to see any human being on planet earth,fail to receive His SPOKEN WORD). Chose to "display it",AS HIS VISIBLE WORD,as follows:

Ps 19:1-4 "THE HEAVENS,DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD. AND THE FIRMAMENT,SHOWETH HIS HANDIWORK. DAY UNTO DAY UTTERETH SPEECH. AND NIGHT UNTO NIGHT SHOWETH KNOWLEDGE. THERE IS NO SPEECH,NOR LANGUAGE,WHERE THEIR VOICE IS NOT HEARD. THEIR LINE HAS GONE OUT THROUGH ALL THE EARTH. AND THEIR WORDS,TO THE END OF THE WORLD".

Yes,"the heavens,were an open Bible" to all human beings,from Adam in Eden,until Moses atop Mt Sinai,i.e.for the first 2,500 years of biblical history! Whatdid God mean,in the foregoing verses? The answer,is to be found in Gen 1:14,"AND GOD SAID. LET THERE BE LIGHTS,IN THE FIRMAMENT OF THE HEAVEN.'TO DIVIDE THE DAY,FROM THE NIGHT, (AND LET THEM BE FOR SIGNS,AND FOR SEASONS, SEASONS,AND FOR DAYS,AND YEARS"). He went on to say:

Gen 1:16,("THE STARS ALSO"),i.e. were also,("GIVEN FOR SIGNS"),as shown above. The Hebrew word for "SIGNS",mentioned above is 'OTH. From ATHAH. Or,"THINGS TO COME". (See also Jer 10:20),where one may "BECOME DISMAYED AT THEM". Or,"BECOME ENLIGHTENED BY THEM".

In Job 38:31-33,the Heb word MAZZAROTH,is said to refer,to what is now called "The Constellations of The Zodiac. The Twelve Signs of The Zodiac. All of the "SIGN STARS",were given names by God,e.g.Ps 147:4.

The Jewish Historian Josephus assures us. That the foregoing named signs of The Zodiac Constellations,(as ancient,Godly astronomy) .Were given to man,through Adam,Seth,and Enoch. Or so tradition has it.

The words,"(AND FOR SEASONS,AND FOR DAYS AND YEARS") of Gen 1:14,in the Heb literally means,("FOR APPOINTED TIMES"),as well as :"the 4 seasons" of Gen 8:22.

On page 15,of The Bullinger Companion Bible. In his very informative appendix,Dr Bullinger,gives an amazinginly complete discourse,concerning the foregoing primitive,Heavenly Bible,i.e.THE VISIBLE WORD OF GOD. From Gen Ch 1,through Rev Ch 22,set forth where no human hands could ever touch,or distort it.

As Bullinger goes on to accurately state. Quote: "IN LATER YEARS (i.e.at Mt Sinai,Ex Ch 19),WHEN ISRAEL,CAME INTO THE POSSESSION OF (THE WRITTEN WORD OF TRUTH),i.e. The Holy Bible. THERE WAS NO LONGER (ANY NEED),FOR THE MORE ANCIENT (WRITINGS IN THE HEAVENS). AND THE HEATHEN,OUT OF THE SMATTERING OF WHAT THEY HAD HEARD,BY TRADITION. EVOLVED (THEIR) COSMOGONIES,AND MYTHOLOGIES". Unquote.

And continued to undispensationally "WORSHIP THE HOST OF HEAVEN,ON THE HOUSETOPS",e.g.Zeph 1:5,in context.

"THE WRITTEN WORD"

As stated above. It was at Mt Sinai,Ex Ch 19,that God chose to temporarily "set aside" THE GENTILE dispensational body. For having "once again",reached a pre-flood,(and post flood state),of universal apostasy,e.g.Rom Ch 1. And God BEGAN,"to dispensation- ally deal with",His newly created,Jewish Nation of Israel,for approximately the next 1,500 years of biblical history.

It was at that time,as is said in Rom 3:2.THAT "UNTO THEM (alone) WERE COMMITED THE (written) ORACLES OF GOD". See also Rom 9:4,5. As shown in Dr Bullinger's earlier quotation. NO FURTHER (NEED) THEN REMAINED. FOR GOD'S (VISIBLE HEAVENLY BIBLE),to continue,"TO UTTER SPEECH". Or,to continue,"TO SHOW FORTH KNOWLEDGE",as in Ps 19:1-4.

Although their "dispensational function",no longer was "needed". The "other" heavenly functions,of separating day from night,and of providing light,and the four season mentioned earlier,were to continue,till the end of time,Gen 8:22. Any other continuing (undispensational function(s),supposedly attached to the foregoing "heavenly bodies" (following Mt Sinai). Would be purely idolotrous,and entirely apart from any Godly approval,e.g.Lev 19:26,31, Lev 20:6, Gal 4:10,11

"THE INVISIBLE WORD"

Beginning at Mt Sinai,Ex Ch 19,God,The Father,1st Person Holy Trinity. Who had (dispensationally dealt with) THE GENTILES,i.e. From Adam in Eden,to Moses at Mt Sinai. Was (dispensationally replaced),by God,The Christ,2nd Person Holy Trinity. From that point,in time,and place,God,The Christ,(dispensationally dealt with) THE JEWS,for approximaately the next 1,500 years of biblical history,e.g.as follows:

1 Cor 10:1-4 "MOREOVER BRETHREN,(i.e. The Jewish Brethren,in context),I WOULD NOT THAT YE SHOULD BE IGNORANT. HOW THAT ALL OUR (patriarchal) FATHERS,WERE UNDER THE CLOUD,AND ALL PASSED THROUGH THE (Red) SEA. AND WERE ALL BAPTIZED UNTO MOSES,IN THE CLOUD AND IN THE SEA. AND DID ALL EAT THE SAME SPIRITUAL MEAT. AND DID ALL DRINK THE SAME SPIRITUAL DRINK. FOR THEY DRANK OF THAT SPIRITUAL ROCK THAT FOLLOWED THEM. (AND THAT ROCK,WAS CHRIST)".

Note: Here it should be carefully noted. That The Eternal Christ-God,2nd Person Holy Trinity,had not (as yet),chosen to (temporarily) lay aside His Eternal,(Gr En Morphe),i,e, As The Visible,Glorious,Form of God. And to (temporarily) "TAKE UPON HIMSELF HIS (NON-GLORIOUS APPEARING FORM),OF THE INCARNATED PERFECT GOD-MAN,CHRIST JESUS", Matt 1:21-23, Phil 2:3-8,Heb 1:3,Heb 5:9.

It was not until the latter period in time and place,that Christ-God,became Christ-Jesus-God,i.e. THE IN- CARNATED--"IMMANUEL GOD,WITH US".

It was also,not until that latter point in time and place. That THE INVISIBLE WORD. BECAME THE VISIBLE,LIVING WORD OF GOD,e.g.John 1:1-14,i.e."THE WORD MADE FLESH". Although (both) of the above,were,and are,and will continue to be One and The Same God. Thus,to refer to Christ-God,as Christ-Jesus-God (before) His Incarnated birth at Bethlehem,(would be historically,and semantically.incorrect)

"THE LIVING WORD"

Christ-Jesus,AS THE LIVING WORD OF GOD,continued to dispensationally deal soley with "THE JEWS". Matt 10:5,6, 15;24, Gal 4:4, Rom 15:8 UNTIL His resurrection from the dead,and His subsequent "Ascension" at Acts 1:8-11. At that time,He immediately resumed His Former Gr En Morphe,i.e. His Eternal,Glorious,Vis- ible Form of God. As so stated by Christ-Jesus Himself,in John 17:5.

"THE INDWELLING WORD"

(Of Our Mystery Church,of Rom 16:25,26; Eph 3:1-10)

At the time of Christ's Ascension mentioned above,at Acts 1:8-11. His dispensational program,(SOLELY TO THE JEWS),was (temporarily suspended). And The Unique (dispensational program),of The Indwelling,Holy Spirit Comforter),3rd Person Holy Trinity,(was simultaneously began),e.g.Acts 1:7,with Acts 2:1-4.

Although not meant,TO REPLACE THE WRITTEN WORD. The unique dispensational program of The Holy Spirit,3rd Person,Holy Trinity,was separately spelled out in John 14:16-26, John 16:26, John 15:26,27, John 16:8,15,etc.And was meant,BUT TO "SUPPLEMENT",THE WRITTEN WORD",i.e. As (HE) then became,THE ONE AND ONLY INFALLIBLE TEACHER OF "ALL TRUTH",e.g.John 14:26, 1 Cor 1:1-12.

It is of the utmost importance to here note the following related-- "dispensational truth":

In His Intercessory Prayer,for Israel,of Luke 23:34. The dying Christ Jesus prayed--"FATHER FORGIVE THEM. FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO". As Israel's Highest Priest,Jesus was appealing to,THE JEW'S LEVITICAL LAW OF IGNORANCE,OF NUM 15:28. BEING "IMMANUEL,GOD WITH US". CHRIST'S PRAYER RETURN- ED INTO HIS OWN BOSOM",e.g.Ps 35:13,and was immediately granted,thereby ex- tending (ONLY TO THE JEWS),a period of Divine Amnesty,covered by the entire (Jewish) epistle of Acts. During which time,Israel's (risen) Messiah,would once again be offered,(ONLY TO NATIONAL ISRAEL),e.g. Acts 2:1-11,22,36; Acts 3:12-26; Acts 4:8-10; Acts 5:31. Many individual Jews,accepted that Acts "re-offering" of Christ Jesus,e.g Acts 2:41, Acts 4:4. National Israel did not. But continued. "TO CONTRADICT,AND BLASPHEME". Causing The Holy Spirit Comforter,3rd Person Holy Trinity,to have Paul,and Barnabas (transitionally) set aside THE JEWS,and their Old Testament Dispensational Program. First,at Jerusalem,Acts 13:46. Then,at Corinth,Acts 18:6. And finally,at Acts 28:28. And now,carefully note the following:

Our "Mystery Church",AS "A NEW CREATION IN CHRIST",was (simultaneously) created by Paul,at the same foregoing three (transitional) points in time,and place,of Acts 13:46, 18:6,and 28:28,but though revealed (to) Paul."It",could not be dispensationally (dispensationally) revealed (by) Paul. UNTIL,the third,and final "setting aside" of National Israel's (dispensation of law),at Acts 28:28. God's different dispensational programs never "overlap". Otherwise,one could never "DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE BETWEEN THEM, as we are (all) instructed to do,in 2 Tim 2:15.

Having (temporarily) set National Israel's (dispensational) Judahism aside,at Acts 13:46, 18:6,and 28:28, The Holy Spirit "INDWELLING WORD OF GOD",proceeded with the building,OF "CHRIST'S ONE SPIRITUAL BODY",i.e. Our Mystery Church,of Rom 16:25,26,and Eph 3:1-10,with 1 Cor Ch 12. He is continuing to do so,even unto this present day. And will continue to do so,UNTIL,"Its" prophesied rapture described in 1 Thess 4:13-17,and 1 Cor 15:51-54.

In Gal 1:11,12,Paul said of Our Unique Mystery Church Gospel. "I CERTIFY YOU BRETHREN,THAT THE GOSPEL WHICH WAS PREACHED OF ME IS NOT AFTER MAN. FOR I NEITHER RECEIVED IT OF MAN. NEITHER WAS I TAUGHT TAUGHT TAUGHT IT,BUT BY THE REVELATION OF CHRIST JESUS

Rom 16:25,26 "A MYSTERY,WHICH WAS KEPT SECRET SINCE THE WORLD BEGAN. Eph3:4,9,WHICH IN OTHER AGES,WAS NOT MADE KNOWN UNTO THE SONS OF MEN, BUT HID IN GOD"

"THE EVERLASTING WORD"

(To Both The Millenial Saved,& Lost)

Following our foregoing "Rapture",the world will experience a 3 1/2 year period of "false peace". Followed by,3 1/2 years of The Great Tribulation Wars of Armegeddon,e.g. Daniel Ch 2, Daniel Ch 7,Ezek Ch 38, Rev 16:13-16,etc. Following which,Christ Jesus will return,in His Gr En Morphe,Eternal,Visible,Glorious,Form of God.i.e. To reign for 1,000 years,as King of Kings,and Lord of Lords,e.g. Rev 19:11-16. His "EVERLASTING WORD",will not be one of "salvation". But solely one,"OF RULING JUDGEMENT",Rev 14:1-4. At that time,Christ Jesus will also be (totally inclusive):

"THE SPOKEN WORD"

"THE INVISIBLE WORD"

"THE CELESTIAL WORD"

"THE LIVING WORD"

"THE INDWELLING WORD"

Now notice "the post-millenial merging" of the (then no longer needed) 3 Unique,Divine Role Forms of The Holy Trinity! Who will "then merge "AS ONE GOD,AND HIS NAME ONE",e.g. Zech 14:9. As examined "in contrast",to Isa 9:6,etc.

1 Cor 15:24-28 "THEN COMETH THE END,(i.e.of the Millenial Reign of Christ Jesus).WHEN HE SHALL HAVE DELIVERED UP THE KINGDOM TO GOD,EVEN THE FATHER. WHEN HE SHALL HAVE PUT DOWN ALL RULE AND AUTHORITY AND POWER. FOR HE MUST REIGN,(TILL),HE HATH PUT ALL ENEMIES UNDER HIS FEET. THE LAST ENEMY THAT SHALL BE (de-facto) DESTROYED IS DEATH. AND WHEN ALL THINGS SHALL BE SUBDUED UNTO HIM. THENSHALL THE SON (i.e. The Divine Role Form,of God,(AS) An Obedient Son,SHALL ALSO HIMSELF BE SUBJECT UNTO HIM,THAT PUT ALL THINGS UNDER HIM.i.e. Unto God (AS Á FATHER). So that our Singular God,(now existing as those 3 CO-EQUAL,DIVINE,DISPENSATIONAL ROLE FORMS". May (thereafter) eternally exist,"AS BEING ALL,IN ALL". For so states the foregoing verses.

No longer (3 dispensational divisions) of "JEWS","GENTILES",and "THE CHURCH"? No. WE WILL BE "ALL IN ALL". And that is Why. The 3 Divine Role Forms,(now needed to dispensationally deal with them),will no longer be needed to dispensationally deal with them---throughout all eternity.
