Where in the Bible does it say you must be educated at a seminary in order to teach or preach? Isn't it really the Spirit of God doing the teaching or preaching out of a willing vessel?

Awesome question! Your answer is that the Bible DOESN'T say one must be educated in order to be God's instrument. Just look at the introductions of all of Paul's Letters, he clearly states that he was CALLED by God and not man. See, in today's society, a college degree talks. It says that you have "brain" knowledge, whereas God looks at the heart. Our intellect is far below God's and we have the audacity to think we can educate ourselves into the kingdom! Your right my friend, God could care less about a college degree but unfortunately, the church today does! May God use you greatly!

You do not have to go to a seminary. The Holy Spirit uses you to preach to people.

It does not .The only thing one truly needs is the truth and that you should have with you at all times .
Remember Moses and Paul alike did not consider themselves eloquent speakers. Yet most of what we know of scripture comes from the writing of these two men . May you do as well in teaching the truth .

Yes, you can be anointed to teach the Bible without going to seminary.
John 14:26 says it's the Holy Spirit who teaches us.

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. "

hi, the undertaking,to my concepts lies precisely interior the verses narrated via you from the Epistle to the Ephesians. With those Holy Spirit presents the church(the genuine Christ followers) is knowledgeable, edified and walks interior the capability of The Holy Spirit, to that end destroying the works of the devil and showing the LORD's Glory to the lost international bringing freedom and deliverance to it. without those actual presents and fruit of The Holy Spirit the church in a definite place or international is having to be susceptible & an basic prey to the devil & his brokers. sure, the powers of darkness do sleep & dream approximately that to take place. So, that is that the believers bypass to a definite assembly each and every Sunday and are recent at each and every such service. yet whilst they see NO such presents' manifestations and notice no fruit of The Spirit, then to my concepts they are only dropping away there, and the final way for them is to upward push up and flee from such lifeless congregations by no skill to return there lower back!!! the capability of God isn't manifested there, in basic terms a trifling bla-bla practice! extremely, the LORD will lead them to this style of place the place the presents and fruit DOES perform in finished. As for people who do criticize, oppose or face up to the actual presents and the 5-fold ministry no count if willingly or no longer, they are the class that attempt to delight God and paintings for Him via skill of their own efforts and forget the capability of The Holy Spirit nor do they be conscious of Him, jogging under Whom demands finished obedience to Him and dependence on Him. Self-attempt jogging in the previous God is talked approximately as "faith" and this human beings's class is touching directly to as "non secular".sure, even background and The Holy Scriptures do testify, such human beings virtually constantly face up to The Holy Spirit!!! They have been who gave Christ to be crucified, ran the Inquisition and that they stand at the back of the concern of terrorism in recent times! that is in all probability no ask your self that it happens the form you're describing right here!
