Jesus states in Luke 6:40 that, “A pupil is not above his teacher; but everyone, after he has been fully trained, will be like his teacher.” I believe this instruction sums up Jesus’ own philosophy of education.
We cannot find anywhere else where Jesus specifically and personally mentions the training of the young, and impressionable. So, this must be very important.
So, if we adults want to be trained by godly teachers how much more should we want our children to be trained by men and women who not only rely on the Bible, but see the world around them through the lens of Scripture.
The pupil will be like the teacher – that is an idea to meditate on.
