Biblical Learning

We find ourselves at a strange point in our faith. There have been made so many different barrages of attacks from so many subtle enemies that making sense of these things becomes a difficult task if we follow the mainstream.
We risk the sin of plagiarism when it comes to dispersing the truth of the Bible. We have heard so much about It already, we sometimes see no need to reenter it to find what God has to say to us. We assume ownership of God's Word; thus, alleviating God from His position and taking it for ourselves.
We preach and teach sometimes as robots, not wanting to look any farther than we have to, to get by. This all done by our lack of attention to what is happening around us: Science and humanism are taking God's people from our pews and classrooms. We are losing this battle due to our lack of foresight, yes, but also to the fact they the people of God are no longer learning.
It seems we have abandoned true biblical study for ear tickling and easy, yet shoddy workmanship in our sermons and lessons. What we are displaying before them is not what they are gathering from the world. It is deeper and more entangling than ever. The people are ready for a change, but are we?
They desire to know more about what they believe, but only find stories and anecdotes. We need sound learning as well as sound preaching. They need truth and we need to help them find it.
