THEORY OF CHURCH GROWTH (Á¦36°) ✝️✝️✝️ (¿µ¹®)
Discipling the Laity for Disciple Making (14)
26) Moreover, the world (field) may be their classroom like the
ancient pattern of teaching (Hian 1987, 48).
27) How then should one teach? First of all, teaching must take
place with the blessings of the Holy Spirit. Sensitivity to the
Holy Spirit is, therefore, crucial in Christian teaching (Education
Board of Discipleship the United Methodist Church 1979, 71).
28) The Bible says, \\"But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the
Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will
remind you of everything I have said to you\\" (John 14:26), and
\\"But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into
all truth\\" (John 16:13).
29) Human wisdom and efforts must be requested from God,
however, for teaching. God already gave some necessary gifts
and talents to the people, especially His children (Matt. 25:14-
30). C. Peter Wagner says:
The gifts of teaching is the special ability that God gives to
certain members of the Body of Christ to communicate
information relevant to the health and ministry of the Body and
its members in such a way that others will learn. (Wagner 1979,
127)
30) Therefore, the people have to do their best for the glory of
God. They have to teach all that Jesus commanded using their
talents, wisdom, knowledge, and ability under the guidance of
the Holy Spirit.
31) Next, the Bible study is the best way of church growth because
church growth must be biblical, based on principles from God's
Word (Hunter 1985, 108).
32) How then should we lead the Bible study for making disciples?
This is vitally important for making disciples because it is not a
simple study of the biblical knowledge, but of the personality
and work of Jesus Christ.
33) In fact, the knowledge apart from application falls short of
God's desire for His children. Knowledge must result in change
and growth (Swindoll 1988, 9). ⛪️⛪️⛪️
