The slogan of Dispensationalism is, “All Scripture is for us, but it is not all to us, or about us.”

Namely the non biblical idea that “Some parts of Scripture have particularly the Church in view. Other parts belong to the Jews. Therefore, certain sections of the Bible have nothing to do with this present age, but belong to the past and abrogated old dispensation, while other sections concern the future great tribulation, a period which occurs after the Church has departed the earthly scene. Still other portions apply only to the earthly millennial kingdom of Christ.”

This hacking method of interpreting Scripture chops the Bible into such small fragments that the Christian is robbed of much of the promises of God.

The inspired “rightly dividing the Word of truth” (II Tim. 2:15) does not mean we are to dissect the Bible into pieces, making it a sort of crazy-quilt.

Rather it means “to hew a straight line through the Word of truth.” But the line Dispensationalism makes through Scripture is disjointed, slip-knotted, sheep-shanked, strained and broken with many gaps intervening along its shabby, ludicrous length.
