Peter was older than Jesus but he submitted himself to be taught of Christ. Today, I believe one of the challenges we have is that we have many teachers but few students. Those who ought to still be students have graduated themselves to teachers

> But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;  2 Timothy 3: 14
> And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.  2 Timothy 3: 15

You see a person who just gave his life to Christ 1 year ago already calling himself an Apostle or Prophet, because you're privileged to be a Sunday school teacher in your church do not connote that you are now a discipler

That scripture above made us to understand that there was a Teacher - Student relationship between Paul and Timothy. So Paul admonished Timothy to continue in what he has learned. See, the way we are doing things in this generation, it's clear enough that many have not learn anything.

Some people do not even know who they are learning from not to talk of what they've learnt. Paul continued by saying, _knowing from who thou hast learned them_. My generation is full of young men and women who are harlots in learning. No bearing, No definite scheme of training.

You see a man of God that is anointed you jump to him, you see another one tomorrow, you jumped to him. You're even confused. You call a man your mentor today, tomorrow you see another one that seems to be more anointed, you leave the former one and start to call this new one your mentor, tomorrow you see another person...

You will never grow that way!
