What is The Difference in Teaching and Preaching? Part 1

Jonah 3:1-10: And the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time, saying,

 2Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.



 3So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.



 4And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. According to the word of the Lord. Jonah, preached an Eight word message that convicted and changed an entire city. It is not “how long” a message is, but it's about preaching the message that God wants you to preach.



 5So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.



 6For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.



 7And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: The message stirred up the King and even got him to preaching.



 8But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.



 9Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?



 10And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

II Tim. 4:2: Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

II Tim. 2:15: Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Luke 4:16: And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

 17And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,



 18The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,



 19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.



We were encouraged to continue reading/studying in the chapter of Luke 4. Also, the statement was made that we need to know where the scriptures are!
