When we teach God’s word the way it’s truly meant to be taught, people will flourish and won’t stay spiritually young forever. Many remain like spiritual toddlers because they haven’t grasped the right teaching attitude that brings the word of God to life.
Have you ever wondered why your audience isn’t left in awe by your teachings, while they were completely blown away by Jesus? Matthew 7:29]For He was teaching as One Who had [and was] authority, and not as [did] the scribes.
It might just be that you’re not bringing the same level of authority that Jesus did. He taught like someone who knew exactly what He was talking about—no scribal mumbo jumbo here!
From a fresh perspective, it’s clear that the manner in which we teach God’s word is crucial. It’s not just about delivering the message; it’s about how we present it. The scribes may have taught the people, but they certainly didn’t captivate them the way Jesus did. His teachings carried an authority that left people in awe.
Now, let’s reflect on some questions about teaching:
a) Did Jesus teach God’s word in the same way the scribes did? Spoiler alert: Nope!
b) Who was left astonished by Jesus’s teachings?
c) What sets Jesus’s teaching apart from that of the scribes?
The answer lies in the authority with which He spoke. So, let’s step it up and teach with the kind of passion and authority that leaves people amazed!
