3 “ The process of instructing believers for the purpose of improvement in their development of their spiritual, moral, and intellectual approach to living life from God’s point of view. ” Defining the term:

4 Neh 8:9Neh 8:9 And Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, "This day is holy to the LORD your God; do not mourn or weep." For all the people wept as they heard the words of the Law. Neh 8:10Neh 8:10 Then he said to them, "Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."

5 Neh 8:11 So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, "Be quiet, for this day is holy; do not be grieved." Neh 8:11 Neh 8:12 Neh 8:12 And all the people went their way to eat and drink and to send portions and to make great rejoicing, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.

7 “Remember, as a believer our intentions will greatly affect the purpose and content of how we will influence those whom God has placed in our life. Edification must become a way of life, not a nice thought to consider.”
