Introduction:
Attitude is more important than education. We need integrity.

Ezra
“For Ezra had devoted himself to the study and observance of the Law of the LORD, and to teaching its decrees and laws in Israel.” (Ezra 7:10 NIV11)

Always learning
  • Time 
  • Resources - how much money have you spent on commentaries and Bible dictionaries compared to your television package?
  • Devoted to observance
    • Study to practice, more than to teach 
    • Monday sermon prep because need to live it between then and Sunday
    • Devoted to teaching
      • Not intellectual pursuit 
      • Teach what your study of God’s word has inspired you to practice
      • Conclusions
        • What will help you approach your study and teaching of God’s word with the greatest integrity?
        • How can you be an ‘Ezra’?
        • “For Ezra had devoted himself to the study and observance of the Law of the LORD, and to teaching its decrees and laws in Israel.” (Ezra 7:10 NIV11)
