You should try thinking rather than parroting false doctrine.

I do think, and that is how I quickly recognized the eisegisis inherent in the idea that dispys try to apply to that verse.

The meaning has to be contained within the epistle, since divide and word do not occur together anywhere else in the entire Bible. Thus the subject of the epistle and that of the verse must be the same. otherwise it is an insoluble shuffle of thousands of cards and a blind draw.

Rightly divide the word of truth!

From what?

From the word of falsehood.

Any other answer goes completely outside of the word.

I will NOT leave your posted unanswered. For anyone to think it is correct. If you cannot understand the simple words rightly divide the word of truth, God help you. The words lie, false doctrine do not appear there. only the word of truth. Now off you go..

Doesn't seem to be all that complicated of an idea...You have the word of truth; the bible, divide it...

Not much different than you have a deck of cards and are told to divide it...
