1 Timothy 6:1-5.      

Have a question? There is an endless supply of information at our fingertips these days. If you have a question, you can ask Siri, Alexa, or Google and within seconds have access to the sponsored and top hits for that subject. Some of us remember the days before instant access information. It is easy to be fooled into thinking that you know the right answer to the question because you find an answer that supports what you thought or seems to make sense. If you have a question about the Bible or theology, the internet has an answer. However, that doesn’t mean it is always the correct or best answer.

Those tasked with teaching or answering questions about Scripture should do so with humility and realize that sometimes, getting an answer to a question may involve more than just a quick internet search to find the answer. Teaching with integrity involves study, prayer, and remembering to look at the verse or concept in question in the context of the whole Bible.
