About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"KNOW HOW TO TEACH THE WORD OF GOD" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
KNOW HOW TO TEACH THE WORD OF GOD
HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO EXPLAIN THE BIBLE TO A NON-BELIEVER? DID YOU GET FRUSTRATED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO KNOW WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT AND DIDN'T BELIEVE IT? WELL, THAT IS NORMAL. THEY CANNOT UNDERSTAND SPIRITUAL THINGS, THEREFORE, CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE. IT SAYS IN 1ST CORINTHIANS 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
SO, IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS A WASTE OF TIME TO TRY TO EXPLAIN THE BIBLE TO NON-BELIEVERS, BUT THAT DOES NOT STOP US FROM TELLING THEM ABOUT THE LOVE OF JESUS AND WHAT HE DID FOR US ALL. THE BEST THING TO DO IS LET THEM SEE THAT LOVE OF JESUS IN US AND THE WAY YOU LIVE OUR LIVES. THAT WILL REACH THEM FASTER THAN TRYING TO TELL THEM WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
BETTER THAN ANYTHING IS TO PRAY THAT HOLY SPIRIT WILL DRAW THEM TO RECEIVING JESUS. ONCE THEY GET BORN AGAIN, THE SCRIPTURES WILL BE OPENED UP TO THEM. VERSE 12 OF THAT SAME CHAPTER SAYS THAT WE, PAUL IS SPEAKING TO CHRISTIANS, HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD, BUT THE SPIRIT OF GOD THAT WE MIGHT KNOW THE THINGS THAT HE GIVES US FREELY. GOD HAS REVEALED THEM TO US BY HIS SPIRIT.
I KNOW I HAVE SAID THIS BEFORE BUT WE JUST MIGHT BE THE ONLY BIBLE SOME NON-BELIEVERS WILL EVER READ. IF WE LIVE OUR LIVES WITH THE LOVE OF JESUS IN OUR HEARTS, PEOPLE CAN SEE THAT AND CAN UNDERSTAND IT. I BELIEVE MOST PEOPLE WANT THAT KIND OF LOVE AND WILL BE OPEN TO THE THINGS YOU CAN TEACH THEM. WE ALL NEED TO SHOW THIS LOVE EVER DAY BECAUSE WE NEVER KNOW WHO IS WATCHING. GOD FORBID THAT WE SHOULD LEAD SOMEONE DOWN THE WRONG PATH.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
