Now there are some who feel that this "right division" of the Word of God robs them of much truth.
This is a misunderstanding of the facts, and our Saviour"s example just referred to reveals that no part of
the Word of God is laid aside by right division - all is needed, and all is accepted - for in Luke 21:22 we
find the Lord placing the day of vengeance at the time of His second coming:
"These be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled".
The following diagram may enable the reader to see how this right division of truth places the two
sentences of Isaiah 61 in their dispensational setting:

Here we must leave the matter. In the space of this leaflet we cannot do more than seek to quicken the
interest of the believer. As a consequence may many be "approved" unto God, "unashamed" of their
work, realize their calling, appreciate the wondrous variety of the different dispensations, and believe,
without reserve, all that God has said by:
RIGHTLY DIVIDING the Word of truth.

Dispensational truth and the Fundamentals
"The advocates of what is called Dispensational Truth confine themselves to the four prison epistles of Paul, cut
themselves off from the rest of Scripture, and have little or no regard for the Fundamentals".
Those who adversely criticise what is known as Dispensational Truth speak somewhat on the foregoing lines,
but in the monthly magazine entitled The Berean Expositor (which has recently been termed by a hostile critic as
"the official organ of this teaching" in the British Isles) the following studies have appeared:
