Jesus’ teaching model includes the written Word, spoken truth, but His most powerful message is the example He set. Like Jesus, Paul encourages, corrects, but their most impactful teaching is through example. Jesus is the only perfect example but Paul by the Holy Spirit gave his life to follow in Jesus’s footsteps and share the gospel and the grace that he’d been given that set him free. Even though we’re not gonna be perfect , we really have no excuses. Jesus uses disciples like Peter to show us that even though we make mistakes if we’re following him with all of our heart, he can use that to do amazing things and draw others near to him. The key is still obedience and being a willing vessel, even though we’re broken leaky vessels. God is able to cover every inability we have and turn it into something beautiful and fruitful for his kingdom.
