Throughout the years many who have enquired about the book “Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth” have approached me. In every instance I have corrected them informing them that this set of Bible notes is called simply “Dividing the Word of Truth” omitting the adverb, “Rightly.”
My sincere prayer is that these notes do “rightly” divide God’s Word. However, I realize that I am far from being infallible. Undoubtedly there are human errors included here among the glorious eternal truths of the Scriptures. I cannot certify that these studies are absolutely correct in every detail.

My humble prayer is that this set of notes could honestly be called “Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth.”
