“Chastening” From
Concise Bible Dictionary
:
This
is in
scripture
mostly linked
with
love
and sonship, and implies “instruction” and “
discipline
.” He that loveth chasteneth (
Prov. 13:24
24
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. (Proverbs 13:24)
;
Deut. 8:5
5
Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee. (Deuteronomy 8:5)
;
Heb. 12:5-11
5
And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
8
But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9
Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10
For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. (Hebrews 12:5‑11)
;
Rev. 3:19
19
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. (Revelation 3:19)
). “Blessed is
the
man
whom thou chastenest” (
Psa. 94:12
12
Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law; (Psalm 94:12)
). The
chastening
at the
time
does not seem to be joyous but grievous,
yet
afterward it yields the
peaceable
fruits of
righteousness
to those exercised thereby (
Heb. 12:11
11
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. (Hebrews 12:11)
).
John 15:2
2
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. (John 15:2)
shows that a
Christian
may be chastened of the
Father
that he may
bring
forth more fruit.
“Teacher, Teaching” From
Concise Bible Dictionary
:
The “teacher” is one of the
gifts
set in the
church
(
1 Cor. 12:28
28
And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. (1 Corinthians 12:28)
;
Eph. 4:11
11
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; (Ephesians 4:11)
); and the teacher is exhorted to be occupied with teaching (
Rom. 12:7
7
Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; (Romans 12:7)
). “Teaching” is the intelligent setting forth of the
truth
by
the
Holy
Spirit
, and this does not leave room for the mind and opinion of
man
.
Paul
left
Timothy
at Ephesus to charge some not to teach other doctrine than what the apostles taught; and those that did teach otherwise are said to be “puffed up, knowing nothing” (
1 Tim. 1:3
3
As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, (1 Timothy 1:3)
;
1 Tim. 6:3-4
3
If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
4
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, (1 Timothy 6:3‑4)
). This makes evident that no other teaching could be of
God
; hence the modern formula of “agreeing to differ” on vital points of doctrine is not recognized. On the contrary, the
apostle
said, “I beseech you,
brethren
, by the name of our
Lord
Jesus
Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same
judgment
” (
1 Cor. 1:10
10
Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. (1 Corinthians 1:10)
).
A caution is given in
James 3:1
1
My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. (James 3:1)
, “Be not many teachers,” for it involved greater responsibility. The same word (
διδάσκαλος
) occurs in
John 13:13
13
Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. (John 13:13)
, where the Lord owned Himself to be the Teacher, and He was many
times
addressed as “Teacher”; though in nearly all cases the AV has “
Master
.” He taught as one having
authority
, and not as the
scribes
.
