I am and am very rarely without my bible.I like what someone said, "I try not to be any further than 6 feet from my bible".Still, I am hesitant to lead anyone in the wrong direction.
A spirit of prayer and a humble attitude goes a long way in teaching or preaching...Prior to preaching, I occasionally ask God to kill me and to reveal me as a false prophet if I speak contrary to His word. Not to be seen as a fanatic, but to reveal my heart of wanting to proclaim truth, rather than lies.I would honestly rather die than to propagate lies about God.
