In my work as a Copywriter, I sometimes have the opportunity of working with someone who shares our evangelical religion.
And, in some cases, I may have even the chance of working in the marketing of courses that are focused on theological issues.
Recently, I've been given an opportunity to work with a Online Course on Cessationism.
But, even though the doctrine is reformed and orthodox, I wonder if I should accept the chance the Lord has presented before me.
The reason is that the teacher of that course is a layman.
But let us first notice some other things:
1- He is supported in such effort by his minister.
2- He is a member of the Brazilian Presbyterian Church.
3- He is more than qualified to teach on this specific matter.
4-There is no such deep material about the subject in our land, who is terribly desolated by pentecostalism and neo-pentecostalism (I'm not sure if you guys have such a movement in your countries...).
5- The course will be given by him trough recorded classes on issues related to Cessationism. Some are properly theological and biblical, others relate to Church History, etc.
The question is:
Can he teach at such a course lawfully our would it be an unlawfull usurpation of the ministry?
Is a digital course a form of public teaching?
