"A Teacher is!"
As I mature as a Believer in Christ, both in physical age and spiritual understanding, I am reminded of the early training and studies that have brought me to this place in my life today.
Flashback to 1992, for some a year of tremendous change. Personal computers were beginning to make serious advancements into every facet of life. Many newbies, a reference of someone new to computers, of whome many became new converts because of an increased awareness of the advancements in technology and of using computers to collect, organize, evaluate and produce information for a specific reason relevant to increasing productivity in the workplace.
How does my knowledge of Christ, lend itself to impacting my daily life serving HIM, for an INCREASE of souls into the Kingdom of God, being the ultimate goal of my faith, and impact the lives of believers around me?
For a few moments, roll back your memory to the 1st time you used a computer. Did you know how to use it to increase your productivity for the task you were given?
In the early 1990's, my role as a network computer technician, it also included the undocumented role of training users how to use a computer. Although my efforts only produced shortterm results, it was rather the company's department of Training that was responsible to teach the users to operate, navigate and produce the work necessary for increasing the company's profits.
Much like in my early days of newfound faith in Christ, I was taught by many believers who had years of experience in serving HIM, and they were willing to teach, just as Christ taught HIS 1st disciples. Jesus lovingly spoke of HIS experiences in the presence of God, and gave that knowledge of purpose and goal to HIS disciples. God's WORD inspired by Holy Spirit being the scripture we read and study was given for increase and profit of and for God's Kingdom.
This department within the company produced a user manual as a reference for learning the functions of a computer. The company even encouraged employees to enroll in computer classes offered by the department of training, and any other available classes at surrounding schools or colleges, to learn more.
Refer to God's WORD to learn more;
As a Believer in Christ, it is entirely my own personal responsibility and obligation out of obedience, to desire learning more about
There is ONLY one teacher, Holy Spirit, given to me by God, that I can learn anything more about HIM. Holy Spirit teaches, thus I learn! This not saying pastors and/or teachers do not provide a valid function as outlined in God's WORD, but rather they expound upon God's TRUTH of HIS WORDs through inspiration and revelation from Holy Spirit. The Bible, a document or manual for living as refered to, is God's WORD, HE inspires each of us through Holy Spirit, being available to anyone who truthfully desires to KNOW HIM, BE LIKE HIM and LIVE FOR HIM!
