His Service for Us

Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

1 Timothy 2:6

Reading:

1 Timothy 2

Am I in line with the “first of all” in verse 1?

What kind of limits do I practice in my praying?

Quiet, peaceable, godly, honest — does that describe the life I’ve chosen for myself?

For what purposes do I want such a life?

“Who will have all men to be saved…” (4) — have I ever met the exception?

What does a woman (or man) adorned with good works” (10) look like?

Have I ever met the exception to verse 11?

If I as a man and husband and father accept 1 Timothy 2:11-14, what responsibilities am I acknowledging?

[The Scriptures say in 1 Timothy 2:2 -- Lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty]
from 1 Timothy 2:2

Reading:
1 Timothy 6:10-16

“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows” (10).

I need money.

Lots of it.

So how do I work for it without coveting after it?

[Flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness (1 Timothy 6:11)]
from 1 Timothy 6:11
