Christianity has developed a "church culture" in which everyone expects one person to stand before the congregation and teach them everything. The rest of us are just supposed to sit in the pews and be "fed".
Romans 15:14 shows that this isn't what God intended. Certainly God has specially commissioned some people to be Teachers, but we are all supposed to be learning and becoming teachers of one another. Nobody has a monopoly on all knowledge.
We all know some things better than the people around us, and we should be willing to teach when the need and opportunity arises.

In this was a thread of common and unpleasant smell, which he followed around the second left turn. After a moment's looking he descried the source: a tripodic vellurm, small as his arm. Yet it was a puzzler.
He drew a sketch in his book of half a lemon, with three rods of lead, a pansy, and cinder of cedar sliver all stuck in it. Tearing the page out (it would grow back), he rolled it up and threw it. The enemy only tugged at the paper with its grasshopper-like mouth. Would Arney have to make the mixture in reality? No, it must be the wrong one.
Instead, he took out a spell cartridge the size of a cigar: Poltmann, 4770 variety. This he pointed like a small wand, and sent a charge through it via his fingers. It went off with a hiss, and a grassy-smelling smoke. The hindmost of the vellurm's three legs broke with a jolt, and it hurried around a corner, puffing fearfully.
Arney narrowed his eyes; the runaway would no doubt simply become someone else's problem.

Forgiveness, compassion and mercy are often misunderstood and misused by well meaning believers. When someone violates a law of society, we are often too quick to forgive when the person intends to do harm. Solomon points out in Ecclesiastes 8:2, “Keep the king’s command, I say, because of your oath before God.” His advice is to follow the laws of man when they don’t conflict with the commands of our Creator.

i see our teaching of each other as the impetus for us to study whatever relevant scriptures ourselves, we 'point' each other, so to say, and then when we read the scripture ourselves, it is the Spirit who does the actual speaking. woe to us if we say 'jay said, therefore', or 'henk said, therefore'. but if we say 'he pointed me to see for myself', now we're talking, even if we're not aware who the Teacher really is...
and each of us is an expert in that area that most concerns us, because that's where we place our focus and effort.
good points, jay, i'd like to be taught by you.
