We are all called to go therefore and make disciples . . . teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19) though the way we teach may take many different forms (formally, in fellowship, prayer, correction, mentoring, evangelizing, theologically rich worship, blogs, etc).
As you take up your cross daily and follow (Lk. 9:23) God has promised that He will instruct and teach you in the way which you should go (Ps. 32:8) and God the Holy Spirit will guide you into all the truth (Jn. 16:13). So we should be constantly learning about God's character and the intricacies of the bible and being transformed by the renewing of your mind (Rm. 12:2)
Therefore it is my strong belief that we should be diligent about passing along what the Lord is showing us, not out of a sense of obligation but out of a desire to aid others to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Pt. 3:18). It's only logical to think that if you are blessed when God opens your mind to understand the Scriptures (Lk. 24:45) that another member of the body of Christ will also benefit from what God has whispered in you ear (Mt. 10:27).
So if I'm ever blessed with a ministry I would love to call it Rooftop Ministries after Matthew 10:27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops.
