"Every Bible college, seminary, and church should avail itself of this work as a key textbook and reference tool."--Dr. Jerry L. Rockwell, Sword of the Lord Publishers. Includes 90 charts and 1,475 fully indexed Scriptures.
These study guides, part of a set from noted Bible scholar, John MacArthur, take readers on a journey through biblical texts to discover what lies beneath the surface, focusing on meaning and context, and then reflecting on the explored passage or concept. With probing questions that guide the reader toward application, as well as ample space for journaling, The MacArthur Bible Studies are invaluable tools for Bible students of all ages. This work on Second Timothy is part of a New Testament commentary series which has as its objective explaining and applying Scripture, focusing on the major doctrines, and how they relate to the whole of the Bible. This passage-by-passage study of the Epistle of 2 Timothy follows John MacArthur's orientation toward explanation and exposition rather than overly-academic concentration on linguistics, theology, or homiletics.
God has given man the Bible, yet the scriptures are debated with less agreement today than in any previous generation. The resultant widespread error propagated by churches and cults has compelled the republication of this highly acclaimed title. One Book Rightly Divided addresses many difficult and confusing questions, such as:When did the New Testament begin? Immediately following Malachi (Matthew 1:1) or not until after Christ s death (Hebrews 9:17).What happened to the souls of those in the Old Testament of whom it was said that God's Spirit departed (1 Samuel 16:14; Psalm 51:11)? What is the purpose of water baptism? Some teach that water baptism brings salvation (Acts 2:38); others teach that it simply illustrates salvation; while others teach that water baptism serves no purpose at all.When Christ returns to establish His Kingdom, will it be the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven ? Some teach that one of these is physical and the other strictly spiritual (Luke 17:20; Romans 14:17) while others adamantly claim they are both the same (Matthew 19:23-24).What does the Bible mean when it refers to the blotting out of one s name from the Book of Life (Revelation 3:5)?When are names recorded in the Book of Life? Since the Bible contains no contradictions, how does one reconcile For by grace are ye saved through faith ... not of works ... (Ephesians 2:8-9) with by works a man is justified and not by faith only (James 2:24)? Can both be true? Did Peter and Paul write two different gospels to the same group one teaching the loss of salvation and the other teaching salvation by grace with eternal security (2 Peter 3:15-16)?The answers to these important questions serve as the tip of the iceberg with which the reader will become familiar in this work. In fact, One Book Rightly Divided with its 6,745 Bible references will enable the diligent student to answer the critic and solve his own personal uncertainties concerning difficult passages from God s word.
PAUL'S exhortation to the younger preacher, Timothy, has come home to many with great power in recent years. As a result, there has been a return to more ancient methods of Bible study, which had been largely neglected during the centuries of the Church's drift from apostolic testimony. Augustine's words have had a re-affirmation: "Distinguish the ages, and the Scriptures are plain." And so there has been great emphasis put in many quarters, and rightly so, upon the study of what is commonly known as "dispensational" truth.
The Old Testament and the Gospels have three levels of interpretation: historical, Christological, and prophetic. Because Christ is fully revealed in the New Testament, the epistles have only two levels, the historical and the prophetic. Much is lost when Christians only see and study the Scriptures from the historical vintage point. Rightly Dividing the Word reveals these hidden prophetic treasures to the discerning student.
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Tim. 2:15It started with a revelatation she received while peeling potatoes in her kitchen in Oklahoma and listening to a message by Kenneth E. Hagin. Since that memorable day, Dr. Billye Brim has studied and taught on the rules of Bible interpretation and the three groups of people spoken of in scripture that are so important to understanding the Word of Truth.How to Rightly Divide the Word will give you a firm foundation for your study of the Bible and help you to avoid the errors that have done so much harm to the church over the centuries.
Does a time gap exist between the first two verses of Genesis? In this book you will learn about a controversial, lesser known literal interpretation of the Genesis narrative that does not contradict the scientific evidence for an Old Earth. Commonly called the "Gap Theory" or Ruin-Reconstruction interpretation, it is a theological interpretation much older than Darwin's Theory of Evolution. It is based on the Scriptural fact that in the second verse of Genesis, the Holy Bible simply and clearly states that the planet Earth was already here (but in a ruined state) before the creative process of the seven days even begins. The Bible itself provides insight into a great mystery in Earth's natural history at what is known as the Pleistocene - Holocene boundary. Science remains at a loss to definitively explain the Ice Age and the anomaly of the mysterious mega fauna extinctions across the face of the Earth about 12,000 to 10,000 Radio Carbon years ago. Geologic evidence from that period indicates extraordinary global massive volcanism, gigantic tidal waves, seismic activity on a vast scale, and extreme temperature swings on the Earth over a geologically brief period of time. It is no coincidence that the Bible at Genesis 1:2 describes the Earth as flooded, desolate, and in darkness in the time frame closely corresponding to these catastrophic events in the Earth's natural history. Clearly, these two mysteries are linked. The Earth has an ancient natural history that can be deciphered from the geologic record, but it also has an equally important ancient spiritual history that can only be deciphered from Rightly-Dividing the Holy Bible. Knowledge of both is required to correctly reconcile Geology and the Book of Genesis.
Have you ever wondered how so many religious groups, even those who claim to be "bible-based," have so many interpretations of the Bible's meaning? They can't all be right, so what to do? One course is to give up, and consider the Bible too confusing or contradictory. Another would be to let the church you like tell you what the Scriptures mean without question and assume all the others must be wrong. However, if you would much rather find out how to properly interpret the Bible, with the help of independent and objective scholarship, this book is for you!
