Preach the Word rightly divided!

“የእውነትን ቃል በቅንነት የሚናገር የማያሳፍርም ሠራተኛ ሆነህ፥ የተፈተነውን ራስህን ለእግዚአብሔር ልታቀርብ ትጋ።”
— 2ኛ ጢሞቴዎስ 2፥15

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
— 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV)

“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good” (1 Thes. 5:21).

The term “prove” means to test, examine, or scrutinize. This challenges the Church not to be gullible, naïve, or accepting of every new or interesting teaching that comes along, but rather to be discerning. We are to test and examine all things in light of the unchanging, infallible truth of the Word of God, rightly divided. Like the Bereans, we are to receive the word with all readiness of mind, but then search the Scriptures whether those things are so (Acts 17:11).

Here are some good questions to ask when proving a doctrine: Is it honoring to Christ? Is it consistent with the character of God? Is it based on Scripture? If yes, does the doctrine fit with the immediate context of the Scripture it’s based on? With the dispensational context? With the teaching of the Bible as a whole?

After proving a doctrine, Paul’s instruction is that we “hold fast that which is good.” “Hold fast” means to retain, to keep firm possession of. As teaching is proved to be good and in line with the truth of the Word, then it’s imperative that we embrace it, stand for it, and live it out.

By Grace through FAITH.

Let us thank God that the Lord Jesus Christ took the condemnation and judgment of our sins upon Himself at Calvary so that His righteousness might be imputed to us by grace through faith. Regarding Abraham’s justification before God, the Apostle says: “What saith the Scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness” (Rom.4:3).

THE BIBLE

The entire Bible in its original writings is inerrant, being verbally inspired of God and is of plenary authority (2 Tim. 3:16,17; 2 Pet. 1:21).

We believe that the Bible is of plenary authority; that is, that its authority in matters of our faith and practice is full and complete. It is the supreme court to which we must bring all questions of faith and morals for final decision. Church history, church councils, creeds and the like may contain much truth, but these things are in no sense the basis for authority of what is truth. "Thy Word is Truth."
