Day 7: Teacher Said...

Writer's picture: JoniJoni

Do you have to believe everything the teacher teaches you?

Do you have to believe everything in every textbook?

You may not have to believe it, but you study it anyway

because

you are in school to learn

and that is what you do.

in order to pass the test.

What if,

just what if

you believed everything

THE TEACHER

teaches you

You believe everything in the

TEXTBOOK

you study it

as if

you were going to take a test

that you had to pass.

Hmm...

TEACHER SAID~

“Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me. John 14: 23-24

TEACHER SAID~

“Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." John 3:3

TEACHER SAID~

“If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8: 31-32

TEACHER SAID~

“A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown....”

TEACHER SAID~

“Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”

TEACHER SAID~

“The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that,“‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’

Luke 8:8-10

TEACHER SUMMED IT UP~

The seed is the word of God. Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop. Luke 8: 15

Which Student are you?

Do you believe

The Teacher

Who says what He means

and

means what He says?

" ....because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law. Matthew 7:29
