Syllabus

It's tempting to teach people how to live Biblical lives. It sets me up as an authority—a master. But Jesus calls us to make disciples of him, to teach people to observe (keep, obey, guard) his commands. My primary job is to point people to Christ and tell them to obey everything he says. If they can't figure it out or don't understand, I can help. But Jesus must be centered. After all, the whole canon of scripture testifies about him.
