James 3:1
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.
Someone who takes on the role of teaching, leading, or influencing others when it comes to the Christian walk should be wise and careful. It’s not a job for just anyone. God’s word is serious, and even though it’s every believer’s job to share the gospel with the unsaved, not everyone should be preaching from the pulpit. It’s true that the Lord chooses flawed and sinful people to do mighty things… just look at Jesus’ disciples, or even Paul for that matter. But remember that before they became teachers, each one of them was radically changed from the inside out by God, leaving behind the sin they once clung to. What are you clinging to today?
