Michael Patton, of Credo House Ministries, recently gave these differences between preaching and teaching on difficult passages:
Preaching is exhortation; teaching is education.
Preaching is the discharge of the gospel of hope; teaching is discipleship of the gospel of hope.
Preaching puts wind in the sails; teaching put an anchor in the ground.
Preaching raises our eyes to the things we know with great conviction; teaching helps us to understand what things we can have legitimate conviction about.
Preaching tells you which option is correct; teaching gives you all the options.
