Doctrinal Boundaries

This website exists to provide a clear, Scripture-centred study aid that encourages the careful handling of God’s Word through right division (2 Timothy 2:15).

To preserve clarity and avoid confusion, the following boundaries define what this site does and does not seek to do.

Scriptural foundation

All Scripture referenced on this site is taken from the King James Version, recognised as the preserved Word of God in the English language.

Scripture is presented without commentary or interpretive enforcement, allowing the reader to study under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Right division

This study tool follows a dispensational framework that recognises God’s distinct dealings with humanity across different ages.

Particular attention is given to:

  • The distinction between Israel and the Church, which is His Body

  • The transitional nature of the book of Acts

  • The unique and final revelation of the Mystery made known through the Apostle Paul after Acts 28:28

What this site affirms

 

  • Salvation is by grace through faith, not of works

  • Scripture must be read in its proper audience and context

  • God is faithful to His promises to Israel

  • The Church which is His Body is a distinct calling, revealed through Paul’s prison epistles


 

What this site does not engage in

This website does not:

  • promote denominational theology

  • debate doctrinal positions

  • provide verse-by-verse commentary

  • claim authority over the reader’s conscience

This resource is not intended to replace personal Bible study, fellowship, or local assembly involvement.

Spirit of study

Readers are encouraged to:

  • search the Scriptures daily

  • compare Scripture with Scripture

  • approach God’s Word with humility and reverence

Disagreement is acknowledged as part of sincere study, but this site exists to clarify, not to contend.

Paul's 2 Distinct Ministries

Paul’s writings span two phases of God’s dealings:

1. Early (Acts) Ministry — “to the Jew first”
Written while Israel was still being addressed nationally.
These letters include references to:

  • signs and miracles

  • ordinances

  • baptism

  • prophecy

  • Israel’s priority

2. Prison Ministry — the revelation of the Mystery
Written after Acts 28:28, when Israel was set aside.
These letters reveal:

  • the Church which is His Body

  • Christ as Head

  • Jew and Gentile are equal

  • one baptism, one hope

  • Salvation by grace through faith alone

  • truth hidden before the foundation of the world

Final note

Bible Study Compass is offered as a study aid, not as a teaching authority. The responsibility for interpretation and application rests with the individual believer before God.
