AC Student responsibilities [∞]

Since there is no diploma nor degree offered, these responsibilities are suggestions to get the most out of the class.

• God's glory and wisdom is hidden in riddles. Wisdom is the ability to discern his riddles. If you lack wisdom, ask God for it.
• God says that if we seek we will find. Seeking is not a casual read of a popular translation of the Bible. It is a diligent, purposeful, systematic search of scriptures in his language for the purpose of knowing God.
• Knocking is done by the hand, representing works. We do not obtain magic knowledge. The spirit reminds us, and helps us correlate what we know. We must know something first. Reading and meditating on the word of God is the work of one who desires Christ to open the door to his mysteries.

I ask that you learn with the intent to teach. This is not a novelty for entertainment purposes. God wishes to be known by everyone. Though not everyone is a prophet, it was Paul's desire that all should prophesy. The Holy Spirit used the OT prophets to hide away the mystery. The same Spirit assists us in unpacking it. True prophecy is not telling the future, or soothsaying. It is the preaching of the cross by the power and wisdom of the Holy Spirit, of the verifiable and reproducible mystery of the cross, from the OT which God has shown you.

So I ask that rather than taking notes, you write an article, in such a way that you teach what you learn, as you learn. As I see your article, I can assess if I have done a good job of teaching, and you have prepared to teach.
