paul says don't be hasty because he didn't want Timothy to get new converts, or people that little was known about, if there was hastyness they could share in there sins. Paul said they must first be tested, and then if there is nothing against them let them serve and this is how the dangers were lessened.

It was necessary to try false teachers because those who did wrong were to be rebuked publicly so others would take notice. the temptations to compremise were because the person was rich or he was a very influential person, and that is also why it is hard to exercise church discipline in todays church. Justice is important to God and must be exercised in the church.

Q3. Godliness vs. Morality
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 4. Setting a Godly Example (1 Timothy 4)
I define Godliness being filled with the holy spirit of God. the holy spirit produces godliness,Godliness is purity of the heart of the being. -
Q2. Legalism vs. Gospel
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 4. Setting a Godly Example (1 Timothy 4)
It makes people feel they are doing what is required,and this produces self-righteousness. i feel the emphasis puts importance on works not faith. -
Paul is reminding Timothy of the predictions so he won't be surprised by the chaos he sees in the church. I feel that this should make Timothy's ministry grow i feel it should cause the church to to want to know the truth and the truth is the word we shouldn't abandon the truth or be led away by false teachings.

Q5. Women in Ministry
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 2. Men and Women in God's Household (1 Timothy 2)
This is my view I don't feel this is applicable to our time. Ifeel that Christian menistry should glorify God,and bring the message of salvation. There are Christian women today with powerful ministeries that do that. -
Q4. Fancy Clothing
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 2. Men and Women in God's Household (1 Timothy 2)
It would cause a divide among the rich and poor most of the women back then were slaves. We don't apply this in the twenty-first century church this must be applied on a basis of principle not law. -
Q3. Pure Hearts
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 2. Men and Women in God's Household (1 Timothy 2)
Men were going through the motions of prayer but they had anger in their hearts they were not worshipping with purity in there hearts and mouths. -
Q1. Salvation for All Mankind
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 2. Men and Women in God's Household (1 Timothy 2)
God wants all men to be saved and to know the truth. the evangelism in the Ephesus church got lost, do to the false teachings the had lost focus on salvation for the Gentiles. -
Q2. Mediator and Ransom
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 2. Men and Women in God's Household (1 Timothy 2)
Paul emasizes these roles to show us what Jesus is about, Jesus died for our sins ( paying the price for our release) and by doing so we were reconciled with god. -

Paul is reminding Timothy of the prophecies so he can fight the good fight. By keeping his faith and good conscience,and not rejecting this so him and the church don't shipwreck their faith.

What I learned here in this Doxology of God is he is King Eternal, immortal, invisible the only God and we know this by faith. I've haven't tried speaking out a doxology but I will start by doing so I'm blessed and he is honored.

Paul was showing Timothy and the church the way he use to be a blasphermer a violent man. He is sharing this with them telling telling them even though he was like that the Lord showed mercy and gave him grace, faith, and love. By sharing this he was showing the church that the same would happen to them.

Q1. False Doctrine
raider replied to Pastor Ralph's topic in 1. God's Grace and Calling (1 Timothy 1)
It caused controversy it was not of sincere faith which caused people to wander and teachers to teach things in which they didn't know what they were talking about. -
