A Bible events timeline and doing an exposition in the Word at presentin the process of a Bible study and reading several years ago, a fellow classmate who had been a Firmly established believer & functioned well in the church service for many long years, made this bold assertion, “Naturally, but Abraham was versed in the Statutes of God therefore he knew about……” (she was hardly considering the pre-Moses laws) I wonder how many Believers might in truth discern the miscalculation in this declaration. Moses arrived 500 long years later than Abraham and so it is unfeasible. Sometime later I created a Biblical events poster and shown a visual of the historical perspective of Scripture main players & historical events. Grievously, a very sizable group of pastoral leaders in the church insist on teach hollow homilies and their congregations won’t grow and increase in Biblical principles. Church leaders like to dispense to us ?moral essays? as well as ?warming words,? given that purportedly, if Christians love a person this is the righteous thing we as belivers will do. Rotten luck if God?s people are slipping through the cracks ?for a lack of knowledge?as long as we Christians are forever kindly to all. Not only that, a pastor wrongly referred to 1Ti 1:4 …’nor to amuse oneself with fantasy and long-drawn-out ancestry which stimulate wayout theories instead of godly training that is in a firm belief in god….’. I ventured to explain that that Bible chapter was referring to the counterfeit rhetoric and value system of Gnostic theory. Yet he would not accept it. How could a reverend appreciate and speak the Scripture in balance with a lack in competentcy about a strange belief which was rather important in the NT period? And then truly, how can the churchgoers attempt to grasp these things and be proficient to study their Bible. Why do we as Christians get bogged down in a routine of prized?s things and feel-good sermons? We preach on a chapter from 2 kings and a portion concerning King david, a topical discourse from Lamentations and then the integrity of Jacob or the power or praise of John – a taste from here and there, dissapointingly we mostly don’t slot it synchronically in a recognizable, easy-to-remember graphic interpretation acompanied by a reasonable Biblical events chart together with The church former times as well. Christians have got to as teachers and church leaders fashion side by side the many parts of the Bible and agenda of God, into a seamless marvellous tapestry which our congregation can draw on for the rest of their lives. Maturing them to comprehend God, His Great Agenda, the responsibilities of the Church and also how to study the Bible to advance. It?s not burdensome to do, and it is not monotonous if we are disposed to put in some study coupled with prayer. |
