RESEARCH, STUDY, CONCLUSION

Some people are upset because there are various schools looking at taking testing out of the class. Yet, schools no longer teach how to study, how to research, and how to come to a conclusion. This is why most home schooled children have a higher IQ score than corporately schooled children. Our schools merely tell the students what they want them to know and the students don’t study, they memorize answers for the test; only to forget those to memorize new ones for the next test.

The christian colleges and churches are not immune to this pattern of so called teaching. Depending on what college or church one goes to, they are taught the scripture based on the doctrine of belief of that college or church.

What this results in is man following man; and man with an inability to research.

Most people, when they “research”, they will comb the net or books for teachings on a subject they wish to learn more about. Yet, like our schools and churches, they reject those resources that do not agree with what they want to believe or with what they were taught. But this is not real research.

No one knows all the Bible... NO ONE. In fact, in my research and reading of writings, most pastors and professing christians know a lot about their doctrine but only enough about the Bible to be lukewarm. This is why we must search other beliefs, even though we’ve been “taught”, or TOLD, they are wrong. While we should be like the Bereans, most are more like the Thessalonians.

Most of what one see’s me teach is from my gathering of all denominations. I do this to get all the passages I can find on the subject. I then, understanding that the Bible was not written to me, research who the letter was written to, what was going on, why it was written, and who wrote it. Then I understand more of what is being said and why. I then base my conclusions on the Bible as a whole, and not one or two verses to support any doctrine.

If we do not research the Word of God, which He preserved for our learning, if we deny to listen to the light of others and check it out based on the Bible. We have nothing to stand on except we refused His word while taking the word of man.
