Unashamed of the gospel, 2 Timothy 1:8-12

Aug

thebeachfellowship

Last time, as we introduced this letter of Paul to Timothy, his son in the faith, we noted that it was the faith of his fathers that Paul said he was passing on to Timothy. In that statement, Paul was referencing the faith of the patriarchs, the prophets and other saints of the Old Testament period, which he said was the same faith that he had. And I extrapolated from that passage the exhortation that we should endeavor to pass on our faith to our children, from our generation to the next. I also talked from a personal perspective as

Faith of our fathers,  2 Timothy 1: 1-7

Paul writes this second letter to his son in the faith, Timothy.  He says in vs2, “to Timothy my beloved son.” Paul was Timothy’s spiritual father.  Timothy’s natural father had died early in his life, from what we understand from scripture. His mother Eunice and his grandmother Lois raised him, presumably without a father figure in his life until the apostle Paul came on the scene. And at that point, Paul became his spiritual father, possibly leading Timothy to the Lord. Paul went on to mentor Timothy as a disciple in the faith, and then later as a brother in

Storing up treasure,  1 Timothy 6:17-21

thebeachfellowship

Many years ago, before I was called into ministry, I used to be an antique dealer. I used to try to explain my work as an antique dealer to people as being very much like a treasure hunter. There was a great allure in looking for treasures, whether in a flea market, or auction house, or someone’s attic. Occasionally, I would find something I used to refer to as a “national treasure.” That may have been an exaggeration, but not always. And when it really paid off financially, I said that I had hit a home run. I guess everyone

Keeping the faith, 1 Timothy 6:11-16

If we have been born of God, or what is commonly referred to as born again, then we have become the children of God. Paul addresses such a person here, speaking in an immediate context to Timothy, his child in the faith, and calling him a man of God. That’s a reference to the spiritual maturity that is expected and desired once a person has become born again as a child of God; they are matured into a man or woman of God. Timothy has become a man of God, and he is a man of God in a deeper

Godliness versus worldliness, 1 Timothy 6:1-11

thebeachfellowship

Before we start our exposition of this sixth chapter of 1 Timothy this morning, I would like to turn to Paul’s second letter to Timothy, chapter 3 verse 16 which says, 2Tim. 3:16-17 “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” I quote that verse as a reminder that the text we are looking at today is indeed Scripture, and it is therefore profitable, even though at times we may question it’s relevancy today. 1 Timothy

The honor due to elders, 1 Timothy 17-25

thebeachfellowship

I assume that you are here this morning because you want to worship the Lord. Jesus said, God is Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in truth. He said in another place, speaking to the Father, Jesus said your word is truth. So one of the primary ways we worship the Lord is to study His word. But according to the apostle James, we are not to be merely hearers of the word, but doers of the word. So to obey the word is worship. In the earliest mention of worship, we find that

Family relationships, 1 Timothy 5:1-16

According to what Paul said in chapter 3 vs 15, he is writing this letter to Timothy “so that you will know how one ought to conduct himself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth.” Now that should be of importance to all of us, and I assume by your presence here today that you too are interested in how you should conduct yourself in the household of God. And that the church is likened to the household of God I think is the key to understanding

Job description of a pastor, 1 Timothy 4:11-16

Jun

2022

thebeachfellowship

The first letter to Timothy that we are studying is a personal letter to Timothy on the one hand, but it is also scripture, and as such it was meant to be read publicly in the church. And the purpose of that was two fold as well; to give instruction in regards to the qualifications of pastors and teachers in the church, but also to inform the church as to what to expect from a pastor/teacher. And I think that is very necessary today. I believe that many pastors and teachers are obviously wrongly informed as to what their job

Apostasy versus the truth, 1 Timothy 4:1-10.

I think almost every week as I preach, I somehow find a reason to quote the words spoken by Jesus found in John 4:24 “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” That statement by Christ is closely correlated to another He made in prayer to the Father, which is, “Your word is truth.” And that statement finds it’s consummation in the words of Jesus found in John 8:32, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you

Servants to the truth, 1 Timothy 3:8-16

thebeachfellowship

We are studying the first letter to Timothy which is the manifesto of church faith and practice. The Apostle Paul is relaying how the church is to conduct itself. He says in vs 15 “but in case I am delayed, [I write] so that you will know how one ought to conduct himself in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and support of the truth.” The Lord inspired Paul to write how the church is to be conducted. Jesus said, God is Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in
