Bible Note: jcsav - You presume too much! No, I do not know as well as you claim to know that Scripture cannot be taught as you would any other book. Please enlighten me. ..... Given: Scripture is God's revelation to man and thus it is no ordinary book by any means. But why does it become necessary to abandon standard methods of teaching in order to teach the Bible to others? ..... "If the student fell (sic) to understand it is not the teachers (sic) fault." If the classroom teacher's ability to explain his subject were so limited that his students habitually failed to understand him, the teacher should be fired. And probably would be. --Hank |
