Rightly Dividing The Word Of Truth

2 Tim 2:15 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
To "Rightly Divide", we must learn how to properly interpret the Bible by studying it correctly, this article will explain how: How to Interpret The Bible . Also, watch the video below, and see how Dr. Ruckman draws out a timeline chart showing us how to rightly divide the word of truth, and what the Authorized Bible (the Reformation Text) teaches about false doctrines. When a verse is put in the right place, or dispensation , there are no contradictions. A dispensation is a period of time in which God dispenses to men and nations their responsibility to Him concerning obedience, disobedience and His plan of salvation . Watch below:
John 5:46-47 "For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?"

Dispensational Salvation

Col 2:11-13: "In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ : Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God , who hath raised him from the dead. And you , being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh , hath he quickened together with him , having forgiven you all trespasses;"

Body , Soul and Spirit
- In the above verses Col 2:11-13
the body is the flesh ,
the " ye " and " you " refer to the Soul ,
the " he ", " him ", " who ", and " whom " refer to the spirit : God the Holy spirit .

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rom 7:17-20 "Now then, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me . For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh ,) dwelleth no good thing : for to will is present with me ; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me ".

Body , Soul and Spirit

- In the above verses Rom 7:17-20
The word " me " is the body of flesh , including our old man with his Carnal Mind .
The word " I " refers to the Soul , the real I that is saved
the words " sin " and " thing " refer to: the spirit : a " no good thing ", evil spirits , devils ( sin personified) that inhabit the fleshly body .

==========================================

When God wants to show us something we can't see, He compares it with something we can see. Similitude's (called analogies today) are simply explained with examples. Hosea 12:10, the Lord says He uses “similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets,” "Like..." and As...". Great teaching by Dr Peter S Ruckman in this short 5:39 clip. From Romans audio # 3:

Confusing Old Testament salvation with New Testament salvation

A common doctrinal error when not rightly dividing the word is confusing Old Testament salvation with New Testament salvation . This heresy contains the false belief that people are saved the same way in both Testaments, carrying along with it the false belief that the nature of the relationship of the Body, Soul and Spirit of our vessel, it's three part nature , is the same in Old Testament Saints as well as New Testament Saints.
Everyone in the Old Testament, including Old Testament Saints, had their Souls spiritually joined to their bodies, with their Souls sharing the sins of their Flesh. When their FLESH sinned, their SOUL also sinned as when touching an unclean thing.
Lev 22:4-6 "What man soever of the seed of Aaron is a leper, or hath a running issue; he shall not eat of the holy things, until he be clean. And whoso toucheth any thing that is unclean by the dead, or a man whose seed goeth from him; Or whosoever toucheth any creeping thing, whereby he may be made unclean, or a man of whom he may take uncleanness, whatsoever uncleanness he hath; The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water."
This is also true with UNSAVED people now in the New Testament. However at the New Birth the Christians Spirit is quickened with new life, and the Christians Soul is saved and spiritually cut free from the dead flesh with it's sinful Carnal Mind and it's devils.
1 John 3:9 "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."
The REAL YOU is your Soul. The "Old Man" is the fleshly body that was cut free. The UNSAVED have a live Soul and a dead spirit, and it is their SOULS that go to Hell. Their Soul is that which is their "identity", their personality, memories, mind, will, emotions, their consciousness, their "real you". With Christians that have died already, it is their saved souls that are up in Heaven waiting for their new glorified body at the Rapture, and with we Christians here that are alive and remain, it is our SOULS that are saved from our new birth, we also now have a LIVE spirit that was given life by being quickened by the Holy Spirit at the new birth, (as Adam had before the fall) and we get a new glorified BODY at the Rapture.
The errors from confusing Old Testament salvation with New Testament salvation result when people believe that the Soul and body relationship of a Christian with the New Birth now in this New Testament Church Age, is the same as the Soul and body relationship of an Old Testament Saint with no New Birth. Hence they assume that the Soul of a born again Christians is NOT cut free from the sinful fleshly body as the Bible tells us clearly in Col 2:11. In addition to not rightly dividing the word, the belief as a general statement that the Soul is the "mind, will and emotions" further adds to this Bible doctrinal error. Yes, of course our saved Souls have a mind, will and emotions, but it is not the only entity that has them, as the sinful Carnal Mind also has a mind, will and emotions. The Bible tells us in Rom 8:6-7 that at the new birth our Soul is saved (with our mind, will and emotions), but we still have to contend with the Carnal Mind that is in our flesly body that wars against our Souls mind (read Romans chapter 7). The Carnal Mind is sinful, and "it is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God". The Carnal Mind is in the fleshly body, and it has it's own mind, will and emotions, and in it "dwelleth no good thing". Having this dual nature, the Christian can choose to be either spiritually minded or carnally minded Rom 8:13 . "To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace". Various doctrinal errors result, such as the flesh still being spiritually stuck to Soul, the Soul not saved, demons in the Soul, etc. These doctrinal errors contradict clear verses in the Bible, and they occur when taking Old Testament verses about the Soul and applying them NOW to a born again Christian. You will find an an in-depth study on this subject on our Deliverance web page.

Tripartite being deception by confusing Old Testament Salvation with New Testament Salvation
Various Ministries, in attempting to define the Tripartite being , make the mistake of using a similitude of the Old Testament Tabernacle , and applying it to the body, soul and spirit of a born again saved New Testament Christian . This similitude involves relating the Outer Court to the body, The Holy Place to the soul, and the Holy of Holies to the spirit.
The Old Testament Tabernacle model does not fit the born again New Testament Christian BUT it does fit the Old Testament Saint that did not have the New Birth, and it also relates to an unsaved person today . However, the New Testament Tabernacle , with the torn veil, was a type of a born again saved New Testament Christian that has had the New Birth! At the time of the New Birth, the operation of God was performed ( Spiritual Circumcision Col 2:11 ) spiritually cutting the sinful flesh from the saved Soul. Additionally, the New Birth was not a deliverance from devils in the flesh, but rather a cutting off of the fleshly body from the saved sanctified soul. Therefore, whatever evil spirits that were in the fleshly body before the New Birth are still there in the fleshly body after the New Birth, but the soul is free of devils. But this Old Testament Tripartite similitude model infers that evil spirits can not only gain access to the Outer Court (the Body) but also to the The Holy Place (Soul). This Old Testament Tabernacle similitude is only true for the Old Testament Saints and the unsaved today - BUT after Jesus rent the Tabernacle veil while on the cross (a picture of Spiritual Circumcision) this New Testament Tabernacle similitude does indeed fit the church age Christian now, as we New Testament Christians today have had the New Birth and evil spirits are confined to the flesh and it's Carnal Mind, and do not enter the Christians' soul (or "The Holy Place"). That is why Jesus gave us deliverance, providing a way for believers (of what God says) to clean up our fleshly bodies by casting out devils, thus giving us temporary relief from the enemy until we get our new redeemed devil-free bodies.
Two correct similitude's , or analogies for a born again Christian's Tripartite being are the football and the ice tray .

Confusing New Testament salvation with Tribulation salvation
Another not rightly dividing the word doctrinal error is, for example, when someone takes a Bible verse aimed at the Tribulation, such as losing your salvation in Mat 24:13 "But he that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved" (which is true in the Tribulation), and applies it now to the Church Age, then the false teaching and doctrinal error of someone here and now in this Church Age losing their salvation results, because the Gospel of the Tribulation ("The Everlasting Gospel" Rev 14:6 ) is not the same as the Gospel of Grace ( 1st Cor 15:3 ) in this current Church Age, and so salvation is different. In the 7 year Tribulation to be saved one must endure to the end keeping all of God's laws and not take the mark of the beast, or he will be damned. To confound and confuse doctrines further, many Christians falsely apply the Tribulation aimed verses about the mark (Rev 14:9-11) to themselves here now in the Church Age of Grace, and this promotes the false fear of taking the mark of the beast (which the Christian will not be on Earth in the Tribulation to be able to take the mark) and also promotes disobedience to God, as God told us to look for His second coming and to comfort one another, not for Christians to worry about taking the mark of the beast nor be looking for other Tribulation events involving God's wrath in the Tribulation. Therefore, when these verses are put in the right place, or dispensation , there are no contradictions, and the false fear of the loss of salvation now in the Church Age and worrying about taking the mark of the beast disappears with spiritual understanding of the truth from the Scriptures being rightly divided. .
