Raised In Church

2 Timothy 3:14-15

14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

If you were raised in church you know scripture. You know somewhat about faith in Christ. You should have the basic idea of accepting Jesus. However, many are not raised in church. Many come to church looking for the answers they need, but are treated like they are ignorant do to the fact that they know little. In reality they have done something that many Christians have forgotten, they are humble. They are like a child asking for help getting something that can’t reach. You can stand there and tell them to figure it out themselves, get it for them, or you can show them how to get it. That is how we should be with people new to the walk with Christ. Teach them how to find the answers they seek. Help them learn that prayer is one the best tools. If they ask about where to find a certain topic, help them. If you were raised in church you may have more of an understanding on the bible, but it does not make you better then those who are new to the bible. It only means you can help those who were not as fortunate as you.
