Biblical Foundation: II Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

• To teach God's holy word. 
• After receiving the word, all members have a responsibility to then share what they have learned with a lost and dying world. (Romans 10:17: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.)
