If there’s a need for teachers, must we really be picky about who teaches?
It's no secret that teachers of God's Word are necessary, but it’s not just any kind of teacher that the church needs. What does God require in and from His teachers? How can we be sure we are meeting those standards? Why is it important for students to also be wary and know these warnings?
While the assumption may be that desire alone qualifies an individual to be a teacher, ignoring any other considerations would only lead to more harm than good. In fact, there is much more to evaluate, starting first with the manifestations of our heart - through our speech.
“Knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation”, mustn’t we be discerning?
💭 Consider this: You might not be an official teacher of the Bible, but you do have certain spiritual children whom you are influencing for better or for worse. What kind of impact do you think you are having on them?
