1. The correct handling of the Scriptures (2 Timothy 2:15) that in the interpretation of Scripture it is important to take account not only of what is written but of whom, to whom, with what words, at what time, to what intent, with what circumstances, and considering what goes before and what comes after.
2. The need to take note in Scripture of God’s different dealings with men at different times and places and in particular the change recorded in Acts 28:17-31 with the resulting ministry of the Apostle Paul the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of the Gentiles (Ephesians 3:1-9).
3. After the close of the Acts period and the setting aside of Israel as God's source for salvation (Acts 28:28), the Apostle Paul was given a special ministry (Col 1:25) which was to reveal God's hidden plan to the Gentiles. This hidden plan was never before made known in other ages or to the other generations (Col 1:26) but was revealed by direct
revelation from Christ to the Apostle Paul (Eph 3:5). Paul then taught this truth to the Gentiles while completing the last 7 letters written in the Bible (chronolocially, these are Ephesians, Colossians,
Philemon, Philippians, Titus, 1 and 2 Timothy). This body of truth is called The Mystery (Eph 3:9; Col 1:25-26) and the believers during this administration have a calling, blessings, and inheritance apart from Abraham (Abraham and his decendants will receive what they have been promised).

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)
This verse means that one should earnestly endeavor, strive with all his might, to be approved unto God (not to his fellowmen). This will involve study as we think of it, too. For one cannot be approved
unless he has learned the will of God. That only can be learned from the Word of God. Click here to find out more about the concept of Right Division.
