The Church of God (COG) stands for the Whole Bible rightly divided. Which option completes the blank?

• A. Old Testament
• B. New Testament
• C. The Bible in Parts
• D. Whole Bible

Answer: (D)

The main idea is that Scripture is to be studied in its full breadth, with proper dispensational understanding, so that the whole Bible is used to form doctrine and practice. The Church of God teaches that God’s plan unfolds across both Testaments, and that interpreting the Bible rightly involves seeing how these parts fit together rather than isolating one section from another. Completing the sentence with Whole Bible communicates that commitment: the entire Scriptural record is authoritative and to be understood in context, not restricted to Old or New alone or treated in disconnected pieces. The other options would narrow or fragment the text, which would undermine the principle of using the whole Scripture under sound, rightly divided interpretation.
