Besides being wise, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging many proverbs with great care. The Preacher sought to find words of delight, and uprightly he wrote words of truth.
Ecclesiastes 12:9-10
Desiring Truth
When a preacher preaches or a teacher teaches, they should do so with the utmost care. Teaching others the Bible is so important and should be handled with care. They must be careful not to interpret the Word wrong or add or take away from it.
In the same way, we ought to study the Bible with care both individually and together. We must be able to give an answer for why we believe what we believe. We must be able to spread the gospel.
A Prayer to Remember
Dear Lord,
Help me seek the truth when I read your words. May I handle them with care. Amen.
