Words of the week

 A teacher was assaulted at a high school by two students after he confiscated a cell phone from them during class.  There are two evils seen here. First, “disregard for law and class room.”   
 
The school had rules about phones. But these young men chose not to listen.  Pro 1:7. A class is a place for learning and not for gadget tinkering. Acts 21:40. Acts 22:1-2. Jesus Christ taught many classes. Matt 26:55. John 8:2 Luke 5:1-3:17. And though He had interruptions (Matt 21:23, Luke 10:40-42, Luke 12:13-14, Luke 11:27-28), He still realized the importance of paying attention. Matt 11:15, Luke 10:39, Luke 11:1-2, John 6:45.   
 
Next, “Disrespect for their teachers.”   They attacked a man who was trying to do them good!  Why couldn’t they have gone before the school board and argued their case?  Why act like two jackals and attack this poor man?  They also could have apologized and promise not to do it again and might have gotten the phone back. Pro 15:1. Pro 25:11. Pro 30:33.  
 
I sure hope the other students will learn not to deal with matters as these two did. Pro 4:14
