An Elder Speaks

All Bible Studies are Important
By Jack Smith
Sept. 21, 2003

It is very evident that Christian growth is a Christian duty.  We must always encourage our new converts to attend bible studies.

God has said, “As newborn babes, long for the spiritual milk, that ye may grow thereby” 1st Peter 2:2; again God said, “But grow in grace, and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ”  2 Peter 3:18.  So God wants his children to grow.

One of the most rewarding accomplishments anyone can have is the knowledge of Jesus and be able to share it with others.  Mature Christian, as well, need to continue to grow in God’s word that we may be able to teach others.

A failure to grow is contrary to both the law of God and the law of nature.  For when  the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God;  and are become such as have need of milk,  and not of strong meat.  For every one that useth milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.  But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age,  even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. 

We need to attend as many bible studies as we have the opportunity.

It is a wonderful thing to be able to share God’s glorious word with confidence.  All bible studies are important.
