How can we be safeguarded from misapplying the ministry to support a burden we may have?
[#19 Q6] Often, when I fellowship with older brothers & quote something from the ministry, they will ask me, “when was that spoken?” I really appreciate this because it shows they are taking into account the context in which brother Lee spoke that particular point. I also appreciate all the older brothers who are aware of the various contexts in which brother Lee ministered and are able to put his speaking at different times & in different places into an appropriate context. How can we be safeguarded from misapplying or quoting the ministry out of its context to support a burden we may have?
In Question and Response (Q&R) sessions, a group of invited panelists respond to questions submitted by students and young adults during the week. The panelists are generally older and more experienced brothers in the Lord who have the burden to respond to our questions by sharing both the truth from the Bible and their experiences in life.
It is important to point out that these brothers do not presume to have the answers to our questions. Rather, they are willing to provide a response in fellowship, and to encourage us to personally go to the Lord and consider all these things before Him.
