Write an essay of no less than 300 words, providing examples from Scripture which show God teaching people and people teaching each other.
Examples from Scripture which show God teaching people and people teaching each other are Titus 1:5-9, Matthew 5:1-12, and John 6: 43-46. In Titus 1:5-9 it says, "I left you in charge in Crete so you could complete what I left half-done. Appoint leaders in every town according to my instructions. As you select them, ask, "Is this man well-thought-of? Is he committed to his wife? Are his children believers? Do they respect him and stay out of trouble?" It's important that a church leader, responsible for the affairs in God's house, be looked up to—not pushy, not short-tempered, not a drunk, not a bully, not money-hungry. He must welcome people, be helpful, wise, fair, reverent, have a good grip on himself, and have a good grip on the Message, knowing how to use the truth to either spur people on in knowledge or stop them in their tracks if they oppose it." Paul tells them that he took what he had learned and taught them while starting a project then left them to finish it, and then use what they learned to select and teach more people. In Matthew 5 1-12, Jesus climbs the hill to teach all the followers who they are and how they are blessed in His name. He teaches them that whatever life throws at you consider yourself blessed to be so highly favored and annoyed which can make people uncomfortable with how blessed you are. In John 6: 43-46, Jesus speaks and proclaims that those who follow and listen to God will be taught straight from him. He has brought them here to listen to Him, and they will learn, listen, and be blessed directly from the Father through Christ. Whether it be from Jesus or Paul or any of Christ's followers, we can learn and teach back to those around us to fulfill God's word.
