Ending Biblical Illiteracy


 Comment from a reader about ending biblical illiteracy: To end it you will need to remove many pastors from the pulpit around the world for false teachings. 


My reply: Biblical illiteracy is caused by people not knowing their Bibles because they don't read them. My goal is not to remove pastors but to encourage God's people to begin reading their Bibles for themselves. When they do that, they'll begin to spot false teaching and avoid false teachers.


I agree there are many false teachers, and we are called to contend for the faith. Sometimes that entails naming names. But all the time, it entails focusing on teaching truth and encouraging biblical literacy.


Read your Bibles every day, always picking up today where you left off yesterday.
