Word of God
Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God
Matthew 4:4
Be the Humble Servant and Teacher of God’s Word
24 But the servant of the Lord must not strive, but must be gentle toward all men, apt to teach, suffering the evil, 25 Instructing them with meekness that are contrary minded, proving if God at any time will give them repentance, that they may acknowledge the truth, 26 And come to amendment out of that snare of the devil, of whom they are taken prisoners, to do his will.
2 Timothy 2:24-26
Brethren;
Strive not with those who lack the knowledge of the truth, and be gentle with all people. For it is towards God’s glory that we work. For it goes well with you that you do so and as such no one can reproach you for not doing what is right. For doing the work of God in all humbleness and meekness is to do all good things to and for others. Remember always that our Savior set the pattern by washing the feet of His disciples. The master must always be the master, yet he must also be the servant of all that would approach him.
Teach them that they may come to know Him, and His offer of redemption and repentance through the sacrifice of the One who stood in our stead and paid dearly for our sins. Show them the truth so that they might be saved, and set free from the chains of sin that have been wrapped around us since the day Adam fell. The devil as compared to the fowler that traps, ensnares and us with lies, blinds us with falsehoods, and sets before us a table of carnal lusts of which one is easily tempted. Beware of and flee from those that would run likewise, for they have minds that are seared with all forms of ungodliness.
