False Teacher Test

James Boice has an excellent litmus test for false teachers. It’s very practical and simple. His premise is based on Jesus words that tell us the good tree will produce good fruit. So the good teacher will produce good fruit in their disciples, and the false teacher will produce bad fruit in their disciples. Or put another way, the good pastor will produce good fruit in their congregation and the false pastor will produce bad fruit in their congregation. Here’s James Boice’s summary.

Let me put it this way. Does the teaching you are receiving satisfy your soul? Does it bring you closer to God? Does it equip you to live for Jesus Christ at home and in your place of work? Does it make you less selfish? Does it prompt you to help and serve other people when you have an opportunity to do so? If it does not, find teaching that does. Find a place where the teaching takes root and flourishes in growth and spiritual satisfaction. The only instruction that will ever satisfy you in this way is accurate Bible teaching.

Jenn and I are thankful that we can say yes to many of these questions. West Hills Community church in Morgan Hill is an excellent place to call our church home. If you are not in a church that prompts you to produce good fruit, then what are you waiting for?

    False teacher test is necessary from this they can find out if he/she has an ability to deliver the knowledge most finely Because some teachers have a lot of knowledge but they do not know how to deliver it to the students. Just a few days back I passed through the hectic situation in my academic factor and I didn’t see any help from anywhere but suddenly my friend forced me to take the help of CIPD assignment help. At that time I was afraid to trust on anyone. But that decision was the best ever.

    The main purpose of teachers is to educate their students and make them better people in this society. In my opinion, teachers play an important role in making the character of a person. I like CIPD help in Kuwait and CIPD help in Lebanon because I think that they have best teachers that help students in their cipd assignments.

    Finding great teachers is not a piece of cake. Also, to become a good teacher requires so much energy and effort from you. Because children and this young generation are our future, therefore, this profession demands so much from teachers. Also, the affordable web design services UK helps so many people, so don’t miss the opportunity and find a way you can also become a good teacher.
