He wants us to understand His ways and joyfully fulfill His will.” Well-known author and teacher Ira Milligan expertly shares how the Bible is divided into two the natural, God’s purposes revealed through the history of the Jewish nation, and the spiritual, or God’s purposes fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Rightly Dividing the Word emphasizes the importance of understanding God’s Word from both the natural and the spiritual perspectives. After years of Bible study and teaching, this handbook is filled with lessons on a variety of topics, The Old Testament and the Gospels have three levels of 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 treasures to the discerning student. You will hear God for yourself through prophecy, dreams, and visions as revealed through the lessons learned in Rightly Dividing the Word .

Religious terminology

Looking to explore biblical patterns, good book. Author gives reader chance at chapters ends to answer questions on reading retention. Good thing at books ends he supplies the answers.

[Michael K.]

Rightly Dividing the Word helps us to separate how we interpret and read and study the Bible. Great ideas and excellent points made throughout the book which makes it well worth the read. A great help in understanding the Word!

Insightful

Insightful review of the meaning of God's Word by careful analysis of scripture as a whole. I would have rated this higher if the source of examples was not the King James version since that is difficult to understand at times.

Meditative and plenty of food for thought

Meditative and plenty of food for thought at the close of each chapter and in the Appendices. Would recommend a read.
