Romans 12:7, On Teaching

Romans 12:7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

If one is a teacher, let him exercise his gift in teaching, be actively instructing. The word “teaching” is rendered “doctrine”[Plumer]. The source of instruction is God’s Word, the Bible. It is from the Bible that the teacher derives his teaching. He exercises faith in believing God’s Word and hence finds his theology or doctrine which in turn determines his practice.

The Christian teacher does not base his teaching on his experience and senses.

Nor is his teaching based on his own reasoning.

May God bless His church with teachers of His Word. Amen.
