--- Quote ---All in all, I've had four families from 3 churches ask/recommend that I start a fellowship, or even a full-fledged church.  My wife also encourages it.  I, like you, have resisted.  What if I teach them something wrong, I worry. The full responsibilities (Ezekiel 34:2-6) are absolutely daunting, too.  As long as I feel I'm still relearning the basics, I cannot with a good conscience do it.  I suspect that there will come a day when God calls me to teach again, but today is not that day.

Steve that is one of the most spiritually mature posts I've seen in awhile.

Welcome Steve,

                        I concur with the above, it's a weighty responsibility to teach others the meaning
                        of the Scriptures. A heavily accountable activity to say the least. I'm naturally
                        drawn to humble minded people, especially the older I get and you are displaying
                        this quality.

                        He who humbles himself will be exalted; you have put Truth first and your desire
                        to teach second. Amen !

                        I understand about the desire to teach, always had and have that, too, but when
                        conveying any of these Truths to others outside the Forum, I keep it simple and
                        direct them here. So many people I want to write from the past. Try to focus to
                        on one point of major importance, like just the word " Eternal " and how it shouldn't
                        be in Scripture or the fallacy of " Free Will " and wait for a response before adding
                        more information.


                                          Glad your here, Samson.
