God has given certain people the gift of teaching.And God has appointed these in the church; first apostles, second prophets, third teachers (1 Corinthians 12:28).The gift of teaching is a God-given ability to properly interpret and explain Gods Word to others. It is something given with the gift of being a pastor, but it is not the same gift. A teacher can be a pastor but he does not necessarily have to be.
And He Himself gave some to be . . . teachers (Ephesians 4:11).
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind (Matthew 22:37).We must have sound teaching to be able to do this.
And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them (Acts 18:11).The Apostle Paul taught young Timothy so that he could teach others.
My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive the stricter judgment (James 3:1).Though the gift of teaching is God-given, it can be developed by the individual. In fact, a person with the gift of teaching should spend time to become more learned in Gods Word. Proper teaching is essential to the growth and development of the church.
