	TEACHING AND RESPONSIBILITY

• INTRODUCTION:
• • This lesson is at the request of the elders.
  • It takes approximately 49 people to effectively operate our educational program.
  • As a result, man/woman gets tired -- burns out -- quits. They need some relief.
  • Today, I want to address this problem and ask for your help.

• THE IMPORTANCE OF BIBLICAL EDUCATION.
  • Deuteronomy 6:1-12.
  • I Peter 2:1-2.
  • II timothy 3:10-17.
    • I Timothy 1:5.
• THE PROBLEM REFLECTS SELFISHNESS.
  • A teacher must be "selfless" - (unselfish).
  • We want to absorb like a sponge but do not want to give back.
    • Luke 12:47-48.
  • II Timothy 2:1-2.
  • Some may only be able to assist... that may be enough.
  • By letting someone else do it, we reflect a concern for self over others.
