Hebrews 5:12-14 For when for the time you ought to be teachers… I. You ought to have KNOWN enough of the truth of the gospel to ENABLE YOU to be teachers. II. You ought to have enough INTEREST in others to IMPEL YOU to be teachers. III. You ought to have enough LOYALTY to Christ to CONSTRAIN YOU to be teachers. Whether or no Be would have us to be teachers, we may gather from — 1. His commands, "Go, teach," &c. 2. His spirit. Ever communicative. 3. His example. "Went about doing good." (U. R. Thomas.) Parallel Verses KJV: For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. |
