Theological Education of the people of God

Theological Education

of the people of God

God chose us and then train us in theology

jeremiah 1:4-10

God Chose Jeremiah when he was in Womb , Jeremiah was not sure of this call,  he said he cant speak and he is too young  . But He humbled himself and God chose him to do his great work.

Exodus 3:11

 Moses asks the same question who he is that he should go to pharaoh . But he humbled himself to Gods command and did his great work.

Amos 7:14  Amos says  he is not a prophet nor son of prophet and he is shepherd . But God chose Him .

Ephisians 4:7-11 God wants us to be Apostles , Prophets , Evangelist  , Pastor  and Teacher .

God has chosen everyone of us  and we need to understand what is our identity in front of God by humbling ourselves to his will. We need to get over the earthly identity
( of pride and differences ) and understand what god has appointed us for in truth .

Testemonials1 :

    Once Pastor was in a five star Hotel and he had to accommodate for 7 days with another person . When he entered the hotel room the person was  not there . but his identity was there and he was principal of Madras Christian College , so pastor was feeling little awkward to have a big man to be his room mate .

   Pastor after freshening up went out , but when he came back he saw his dirty cloths and Socks were not there. He thought may be caretakers do this in five star hotel.  When he introduced to him he told him he is just a teacher . And Later he realized that it was that man who cleaned his dirty cloths . After so much Achievement the principle of MCC chose to be having not the identity of the  earth ( of pride )  but chose to be a Teacher .

Testemonials2:

While Pastor was travelling on train which he booked to ticket very early to have window sheet on chair car . When the train arrived for boarding he found there there was a father and his daughter sitting . He requested them to move as it was his seat .

   Later when the train started it was very crowded and he saw there was one lady carrying a baby and the kid was crying continuously may be of hunger .  He requested the fellow neighbours to adjust so that they can accommodate her in their seat . But the father and daughter refused to do that . So pastor Got up and let the lady have his seat .It was 6 hours before pastor would got his seat back . 4 Hours after the journey the father asked pastor to adjust his seat with them . Later he asked him If He a “Christian” .

  This way pastors identity  was presented in front of other travellers  .During that time many approached pastor for prayers.  A act of evangelism . God has chosen us to be , Prophets , Evangelist  , Pastor  and Teacher . Praise the Lord .
