Need for Doctrine

[Bible references: 1 Timothy 1, 4; 2 Timothy 4:2; Titus 1:9; 2 John 1:8-9]

The growing process has not been easy, and the combination of new challenges and our ever-present sin has resulted in wide divisions in the church, leading some to think that the doctrine that ought to be holding us together seems to be tearing us apart instead. In fact, the opposite should be true. Our doctrine should be holding us together. In fact, if the church doesn’t have its own doctrine and culture, how would we stay together as a church if we are all simply doing our own things? How would we agree how to worship in common or define who is in the church or how we would worship? Under what pretext would we invite people into the church? What common truth would we hold to?

Observe

Read 1 Timothy 4. Whatwarnings are given to Timothy about those who would create problems?

I have been teaching the Bible to children and adults for over twenty years. I have also been involved in various church leadership roles for many of those years. I've written an anthology of my first 40 years of writing poetry in my book, Growing.
