Hi Gino,

I teach a lot.  One rule of thumb I use is I back up everything with scriptures and passages - coupled - with my experience.

I do not teach anything I do not understand thoroughly or is controversial such as praying in tongues.  If a person prays in tongues, good.  If he/she does not that's ok too.

I stick to the scriptures and my experience.  Another example, if I have never experienced the power of the Blood of Jesus, how would I be able to convince someone of it's wonder working power?

Finally, I try to be sensitive to the spiritual and emotional place the person is in.

Does the person need milk or meat?

I also do my best to avoid arguments.  Sometimes silence is golden.

I have made plenty of mistakes teaching but that does not make me a false teacher.  As we grow in Christ, His Holy Spirit enlightens us, gives us Wisdom and Revelation to teach and to share the Gospel.

Hope I have been some help to you.

Blessings!
