Proverbs 4 (the Proverbs chapter that matches the day of the month) says this: “For I give you good doctrine.” Quoting wise King Solomon teaching one of his sons.
And the Holy Spirit has skillfully incorporated those words into the Bile, Holy Writ.
The noun “doctrine” here is spelled “leqach” in Hebrew, meaning “that which is learned” Actually one time (in the King James Version) it’s translated “fair speech.”
Many Churches today are deemphasizing (marginalizing) Bible Doctrine! They call it “divisive,” or worse!
But I say “doctrine” is essential to a healthy Christian life, even to be saved one must believe “right doctrine.”
You will to to Heaven or Hell based on your “doctrine.” On whether you believe Jesus is God’s Son or not! Or whether you believe in His bodily Resurrection or not!
All I am doing this morning is urging you to get into a good, Bible preaching Church … under a godly Pastor who knows how to teach … BIBLE DOCTRINE!
One who can “rightly divide the Word.” 2 Timothy 2:15, using a clause that pictures a Daddy slicing a loaf of bread to give to each member of his family! Cut it neatly and straight and evenly … because all the children are hungry!
— Dr. Mike Bagwell
God’s Doctrine is not without benefit! He says: “My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass.” Deuteronomy 32:2
Then let it rain!
