² Two excellent teaching methods used effectively by Jesus and his apostles were: (1) the use of questions, and (2) emphasizing specific points when we read or quote the Scriptures. How can we use these methods in our house-to-house work and when conducting Bible studies?

AT BIBLE STUDIES

⁶ The use of questions is vital when conducting Bible studies. Well-worded questions can make the student think and can help him to a clearer understanding of the truth. Thus, well-placed supplementary questions not found in the publication being studied may be asked. On page 51 in the School Guidebook there are helpful suggestions that you may wish to review from time to time.

⁷ Making good use of the Bible is essential. Even though some scriptures may be quoted in the publications, at times it may be beneficial to have the student read directly from the Bible. Make sure the key words are properly emphasized so that the Bible student will appreciate why the scripture is quoted and will understand its application.

⁸ May our effective use of questions and proper emphasis in reading scriptures help us to continue making disciples in harmony with Jesus’ command.​—Matt. 28:19.
