Our Teacher

I John 2:27


As for you, the anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as His anointing  teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit--just as it has taught you, remain in Him.

God's Holy Spirit is the anointing we have received, He is the seal to guarantee our eternal life. When we are taught by good and great Bible teachers, our pastors and Bible School professors, we should not just take them at their word and blindly believe everything they say, but use it as a basis for our own study, to see how God teaches us, as the Bereans did, who, "received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true." (Acts 17:11)

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
