As Christians we need to be teachers as was our Lord Jesus Christ. One the titles that was given to Jesus Christ, was that He was a teacher from God (John 3:2) and the people identified Him to be so, because they recognized that He could not do the miracle He did unless God was with Him. The Psalmist writes “Come my children, listen to me and I will teach you the fear of the Lord” (Psalm 34:11) which is the beginning of all wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). The last order before Jesus’ ascension known familiarly as the great commission starts with the instruction to first go and then teach as it reads “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”. It also tells us that we need to teach the nations to observe God’s commandments, but we need to first recognize that in order for us to be like Jesus, teachers from God, we need to have God with and in us. And in the presence of sin, God cannot exist. So if we have any unconfessed sin in us, we need to first confess and repent. Only then can we be teachers. This is why King David repented and sought that the Lord restore unto him the joy of Salvation and uphold him (not cast down) with His freeing spirit, for only then, only then could he teach other sinners like himself, God’s ways (commandments) and sinner shall be converted unto God. (Psalm 51:12-13).

As Christians, we need to be teachers from God and of God, but before we embark on this mission, let us first examine our lives and seek God’s grace and mercy, confessing our willful sins, so that we can then teach others God’s ways. Praise God, that the steps of a  good man are ordered by the Lord and He delighted in His ways; though he falls, though he falls, He shall not be cast down for the Lord upholdeth him in His hands (Psalm 37:23-24)

Matthew 28:19-20 (KJV)
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Psalm 51:12-13 (KJV)
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
