What does the lecturer mean when she says you are here to educate your students for eternity?
-
I am here to teach my students for eternity means that I am not just teaching my subject matter. I am teaching them skills to use throughout their lifetime. I am imparting biblical truths that will stay with them. I am helping the students process life’s big questions. As I pour in information, I am changing or influencing the students’ worldview.

I am here to prepare our children to meet Jesus and live with Him in eternity.

The lecturer is referring to the eternity with God. We are educating students about God’s sacrifice of his son, Jesus, for our sins. We are educating students to know all that it takes here on Earth to get into heaven with the Father. What we teach about God is what these students will carry with them their whole lives and into the hereafter.

What they learn from me regarding my Christian walk will have an impact on them for eternity. They are at a key point in life where they are figuring out who and why they are. My influence on them can last a life time and beyond as they get to know who God is and what that means for me an what that means for them.

It means whatever we teach our students, it is going to “stick” with them as they grow older…into eternity. The habits and skills we teach them will hopefully guide them as they begin to connect with others.
