What does the lecturer mean when she says you are here to educate your students for eternity?
-
What we teach our students can have an eternal impact if we are intentional.
-
We teach for our students to be impactful in this life as God navigates them into the lives he’s called them to. But we also have a responsibility to instruct them that this life is temporal. And we need to understand that through the lens of eschatology eternity will be spent either in or outside the presence of God.
-
What was said has two meanings. First, we must help prepare our students for the path before them as Christians. Secondly, if we do our jobs properly and instill biblical values and truths in the younger generation, we have provided the knowledge that our students will need to pass these truths on to the next generations.
-
The lessons you teach your students will impact them for the rest of their lives
-
Christian educators have the unique opportunity to teach students Truth and explain to them the Life that is found in Christ. As Christian educators, we have the freedom to answer and discuss questions about who we are and why we are here and what our purpose is on the earth. This gives us the opportunity to present the Gospel, which means out students are then given the opportunity to respond to Christ, which would seal their eternity with Him.
