WHAT IS RIGHT DIVISION ?

Right division simply allows the Bible to say what it says.
Right division explains the Bible, rather than explaining it
away.
Right division allows for the recognition that there are two
programs in God's purpose for Israel and the body of Christ. God
was reconciling heaven and earth to himself.
1 Chronicles 29:11 Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the
power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all
that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the
kingdom, O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.
The kingdom of God is composed of both the earthly and the
heavenly.
Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests:
and we shall reign on the earth.
The believing remnant of Israel composed of Jews and Gentile
will inherit the prophetic Davidic kingdom on earth (Exodus
19:6) and will reign with Christ (Revelation 20:4). The remnant
will be kings and priests unto God.
2 Timothy 4:18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil
work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be
glory for ever and ever. Amen.
The body of Christ, the church, will be in heavenly places.
Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their
synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing
all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the
people.
The gospel of the kingdom was preached to Israel by the Lord
Jesus Christ.
Galatians 2:7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel
of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of
the circumcision was unto Peter;
2:8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship
of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the
Gentiles:)
Peter was the apostle to the circumcision, the Jews. Paul was
the apostle to the uncircumcision, the Gentiles, and as such,
taught differing gospels.
Colossians 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his
cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I
say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
Christ, by the cross, has reconciled all things in heaven and
earth to himself.
Genesis 12:2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will
bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a
blessing:
God established Israel to be a blessing to the nations; through
Israel the nations would come to God.
Matthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set
on an hill cannot be hid.
God established Israel to be a blessing and a light to the
Gentile nations of the world.
Matthew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto
the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Romans 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the
circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made
unto the fathers.
Jesus Christ came as a minister to Israel to fulfill the
promises of God to Israel, bring in the kingdom of heaven, and
establish Israel as that light to the nations.
Israel rejected Christ and stones Stephen in Acts 7.
Acts 13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was
necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to
you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves
unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
God set Israel aside temporarily and turned to the gentiles.
Colossians 1:25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the
dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the
word of God;
God has interrupted the timeline to establish his Kingdom by the
dispensation of the grace of God, to which Paul has been made a
minister to the Gentiles.
Paul preaches his gospel in this dispensation, by which we are
saved by simply believing it and trusting Christ for a completed
salvation unto eternal life;
1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the
gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received,
and wherein ye stand;
15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also
received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the
scriptures;
15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third
day according to the scriptures:
Christ paid in full the penalty for our sin, and rose again to
give us eternal life and the forgiveness of sin. The Lord Jesus
Christ is our complete salvation.
Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I
will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the
house of Judah:
Israel failed to keep the first covenant. The LORD will make a
new covenant with the house of Israel and Judah.
Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which
is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Jesus came to fulfill all that was written and shed his blood on
the cross for the remission of sins Israel committed under the
first covenant (Hebrews 9:15). Jesus died to put in force the
new testament.
Matthew 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was
not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever
shall be.
A time of tribulation, will in the future, prepare Israel to
accept Christ; God will establish his Kingdom; God will fulfill
all the prophetic promises given to believing Israel.
Mark 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of
God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Zechariah 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and
upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of
supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have
pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his
only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in
bitterness for his firstborn.
Israel was unable to achieve it's purpose on it's own, so God
will do it for Israel. God will empower Israel to be righteous,
to be a light, to be that blessing to the Gentiles in the
kingdom.
Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and
gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your
own land.
36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be
clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I
cleanse you.
36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I
put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your
flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk
in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
36:28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your
fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
The coming of the Lord Jesus Christ will be the fulfillment of
the new testament promised to Israel. Jesus will blot out all
sin from Israel (Acts 3:19) and forgive all their iniquities
(Jeremiah 31:34). A new heart will be given to Israel so they
can be righteous and keep his commandments. Israel will inherit
all their promised land. Israel will be a blessing to the world.
Ephesians 1:9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will,
according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in
himself:
1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might
gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in
heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
God will have fulfilled his purpose; heaven and earth will have
been reconciled to himself and will gather together in one all
things in Christ.

Rightly dividing is to separate one from another. We can see a
biblical example of rightly dividing as the Lord will rightly
divide the nations (also at the second coming):
Matthew 25:31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and
all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne
of his glory:
Matthew 25:32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and
he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth
his sheep from the goats:
As far as what Paul writes that needs to be rightly
divided/seperated one from another is the word of truth
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the
word of truth.
Rightly dividing the word of truth means to separate out the
gospel that is "the gospel of your salvation" (1 Corinthians
15:1-4 KJV) as mentioned in Ephesians 1:13, from other gospels
in the Bible or you could be believing the wrong gospel that is
not the gospel that is the power of God to save you.
For example, you could think that your gospel is that you need
to be water baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38 KJV),
sell all that you have (Matthew 19:21 KJV, Acts 2:45 KJV),
endure to the end to be saved (Matthew 24:13 KJV) wait for the
times of refreshing that shall come from the presence of the
Lord (the second coming) that your sins may be blotted out (Acts
3:19-21 KJV). But, that's not your gospel (good news)! It's not
the gospel of YOUR salvation, the power of God to save you
today!
The gospel that is the power of God to save man today is the
gospel of Christ; how that Christ died for our sins and that He
was buried and was raised again the third day (1 Corinthians
15:1-4 KJV)! It is the word of truth, the gospel of your
salvation that was given by revelation of Jesus Christ to the
apostle Paul (Galatians 1:11-12 KJV).
We must also rightly divide the word of truth in Paul's
epistles. For example, there was a time that certain Gentiles
(called Greeks in a KJB) had ordinances to keep so as not to
offend the Jews, but then in Paul's later epistles when writing
to the alien gentile (who Paul was a prisoner of Jesus Christ
for, people like you and me who in time past were without hope
and without God in the world Ephesians 2:11-12 KJV), you can eat
anything as the middle wall of partition was broken down between
us (Ephesians 2:14-16 KJV). The handwriting of ordinances that
was against us, which was contrary to us, was taken out of the
way, nailed to His cross (Colossians 2:14-16 KJV). This is also
why it is that it wasn't until 2 Timothy that Paul wrote to
rightly divide the word of truth.
