A Study Of Authority
All of this we learn from one single verse. We must understand that this verse
does not contradict any scripture anywhere. Even the individual thoughts or
phrases do not contradict any scripture. If we draw conclusions, by using other
verses, that contradict this passage, then somewhere we have introduced false
teaching. Let us not be guilty of false teaching. False teaching will lead
people to Hell. People do not go there without a leader. As Jesus said, Let the
blind lead the blind, and both shall fall into the ditch. When we introduce
teaching that is contrary to this passage, we are leading blind people into the
pit of Hell.
God will only show mercy to
those who faithfully teach His word.
We are commanded to preach the word (2 Tim 4:2). That word is to reprove,
rebuke, and exhort. Reprove those who sin. Rebuke those who teach error to
cause people to sin. And to exhort all to seek the truth and live by it.
