I believe it's one thing to learn to sharpen one's skills for a chosen hobby or vocation, but the mentality of this world's system is that the ones with the most education are the ones who are the best equipped to tell others how to live. I believe this is wrong and deceptive . . . BECAUSE . . . We have God's Holy Spirit to teach us - we have our risen Savior living in our hearts, we have God as our Heavenly Father - and as they are leading our lives, we will truly be living as God has intended us to live. This is what I believe Scripture teaches us about abiding in Jesus that we may bear fruit for His kingdom.
